    Ended up getting a diamondback hd. Turns out I can open all the way, and the whole thing can come off easily if needed.

    His gas tank is probably bigger than he thinks.

    Looking for a heavy duty & secure tonneau cover. Any recs? Not a fan of diamondback not opening all the way, but I like the load capacity. These look promising, but the janky website gives me pause: https://www.renegadecovers.com

    Yes and I love it. 6.2 with the 10-speed is very nice.

    Interesting. When I bought mine in Nov. I did the whole deal via email/text. Showed up, wrote a check, drove away in new truck.

    Not sure if you’re referring to my post above, but those Goodyears are only rated for 50k miles. The Michelin ltz lt at2’s used to be rated for 80k, but it looks like they’re down to 60k now.
  9. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    My at4 came with Goodyear wrangler duratracs. I’ll keep them as long as they last and then go back to Michelin LT at2’s. They’re rated for 80k miles, and I usually get 90-100k out of them.
  10. I don’t plan around it but I always see more movement during a new moon. Or after a cloudy night.
  11. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    Yeah the 2019 GMC 6.2L is the only GM 2019 truck that got the 10-speed. I would’ve found a 2020 if the 10-speed wasn’t available. (The 8-speed caused a lot of body shake issues)

    So they brought my truck in from Wiesner Huntsville, which still shows some of the lower MSRP AT4’s in stock. Maybe Garlyn will make the same deal again: https://wiesnerhuntsville.com/New-Car-Inventory?Make=gmc&Model=sierra%201500&Style=4wd%20crew%20cab%20147%22%20at4&Year=2019

    They had a line on a black twin of my truck, which was actually a little cheaper since black isn’t a premium color. No idea on whether this one is still for sale somewhere. Edit: here’s a link to this specific truck: https://wiesnerhuntsville.com/New-Car-Inventory/2019-GMC-Sierra_1500-Huntsville-kZ2ahwURZkSftFPsbZIEtg The cool thing about this one, and mine, is lower MSRP with the 6.2L.
  14. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    Yes if you leave the ball in.
  15. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    Honestly it was just luck that I stumbled upon it. This dealer is Garlyn Shelton in Temple. They had one in stock I liked, so I clicked the “get internet price” button. The one I wanted had been sold, so they sent me a quote for a similar one at a lower than advertised price. They ended up bringing mine in from Huntsville. The deal was made entirely via text with the internet sales manager. The salesman I worked with in-store told me they’re working to become a volume dealer, and they’ll make a deal just to puff numbers. I tried to shop the price closer to home, but everyone told me they can’t match it.

    The ride is surprisingly smooth. Detail sheet below. They brought in a truck from Huntsville, I didn’t do a custom order.
  17. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    I went from a 4.8L 4-speed to a 6.2L 10-speed, so the difference and improvement is huge. The 10-speed is smooth, but I’m still getting used to being lifted. I like the multi pro tailgate a lot more than I expected. I thought it might be gimmicky, but it’s pretty helpful. Took the wife and 3 kids out of town for Thanksgiving, and the bed was loaded up with food, hunting gear, etc., and I didn’t notice the extra weight. I could easily tell the difference in the old truck.

    This is a 2019 and I got $10k off MSRP. Ended up being less than the base price for the base AT4. I shopped around a lot, and this was the only dealer that went that low. (Garlyn Shelton in Temple).
  20. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    Picked up an AT4 over the weekend hopefully it’ll last as long as my Silverado did.
  21. jofus replied to BurntOrange&White's topic in Hobbies
    I’m at 208k in my 2011 Silverado. Only maintenance repairs I’ve had to make are replacing HVAC lines and a fuel pressure sensor. I do sense it is on the cusp of becoming a money pit, so I hope to trade it in the weekend.
