    Routine Maintenance

    One of the reasons I do it is because I routinely keep a vehicle for 15-20 years, GM only cares that it makes it through the warranty period, and they are willing to roll the dice on that too, their biggest concern is making cost of ownership look as low as possible and to hell with longevity...

    Dark Ash Metallic touchup paint

    The paint code for the gloss black is WA8555, and it matches perfectly. I have only had to use it once since I have PPF on the front, but the back bumper had a chip come off where the top pads attach, sometimes I have a hard time finding the spot it blends so well.

    Dark Ash Metallic touchup paint

    Yeah, when I get a new car one of the first things I ask for is a touch up paint for it, when I picked up my ZR2 I asked and a week later they had one for the main color and a black for the bumpers, I didn't bother them for anything for the red tow hooks, but the last few trucks they have...

    Picking up my 2026 HD ZR2 Thursday evening!

    You said skirts, so I figured you wanted to compare figures like a girl.

    Picking up my 2026 HD ZR2 Thursday evening!

    Well, you are the one that said it wouldn't last long, yet you post pics that show just the opposite, and before you go calling others 'skirts', sounds like you may be jealous that you no longer can fit a skirt without it looking like it belongs around a mobile home! At 6'2'+ and 185 pounds I...

    There may be a replacement out there if he is interested, and if the tan color isn't discontinued. https://www.mygmpart.com/search?search_str=2015+ltz+seat+cover+tan+leather

    Chevy Removes AFM and DFM: The V8 Fix Everyone Wanted, According to Experts

    There is no bigger AI bullshit YT channel than Car Reviews Hub, one thing is absolutely certain, if they say its true, it is definitely NOT true. DFM is alive and well in the new engines, per many much more reliable sources.

    Leather Seats

    I damaged my seat bottom of the 60% side of the 60/40 seat in the back, so I ordered one from GM and it showed up yesterday, upon inspection it looks like all the panels are real leather, thin, with some kind of backing on it, but you can see at the seams where the panels come together that it...

    New puddle light options

    My standard reply to the 'thank you for your service" compliment paid to me (and which always humbles me) is to tell them that 'people such as you, and a country such as ours, makes it easy to want to serve'. I also feel the real price is paid by those service members, and their families, who...

    New puddle light options

    It's the same here in Marylandistan, I have the Veteran designation on my license, I also have USMC plates on my truck, but a simple DM to Mix with verification would do no matter how you slice it is my guess.

    New puddle light options

    Just left my own 5 star, they honestly deserve it, some may not like the products, but it is hard to argue that they don't take care of their customers.

    New puddle light options

    I am sure he will take care of you, but keep me in the loop just in case since I have a few sets where people ordered twice because they thought it didn't go through, or just decided they didn't like that they don't sit flush and they were sent to me instead of back to China. Let's see what Mix...
