Post photos of your 2500/3500 HD's


Recommended Posts

I was talking about your truck. The stance is exactly what I'm looking for. How's the ride with the Fox shocks?

The ride is just as good or better than stock. No complaints what so ever. The day I picked it up from being lifted, I almost felt like I went too high. The pictures really don't do justice to show how high it is. Now that I've had it like this for a few months, part of me wants to go bigger and wider stance. By putting the Toyo RT 35x12.5's on the stock 8.5 wide wheels, the tires are pretty much tucked in the fenders. This is great for keeping the rock chips to a minimum on my paint, but I'll probably still go to a wider custom wheel at some point. I'm letting some of the smoke clear after spending a big chunk on the Amp Research running boards, lift, tires, Sundown sub, amp, tinted windows, Husky mats, Beeds coating,,,,,. The wife loves the truck, but I know when to slow down on the spending. lol

I had to order my truck to get the options I wanted. I ordered late Jan. 2015 and picked it up yesterday. It will be going in next week to have to step rails added but otherwise I love it...

NICE TRUCK!

Traded my 2012 Silverado 1500 extended cab for a new 2016 2500HD crew cab. Only have one decent picture right now, which was taken inside the dealership the day I bought it. The weather has been crumby ever since. Will be starting a build thread soon, as I have a few mild mods planned. Loving the new truck so far! I should have bought a 2500HD a long time ago!

Wicked shine ? What type of wax and or what did you do to make her look like that ? Sweet.

I honestly just washed it; it might be the fact that I took the pics in shade, which gave it much more depth in reflections : )

 

We are not nearly done with winter here in the Northeast but I could use your cleaning talent. : ) .

 

Here is my girl "Allison" resting in Saguenay Quebec last week after making a two day jaunt from NYC to Pittsburg NH to Saguenay Quebec.

 

Went to the self serve car wash on our return to NH. I only used the water to attempt to clean her but it was of little assistance. I didn't have the heart to run the car wash brush over her. Come spring I think I would have regretted it.

 

Stay safe ...

Nice rig. Did you buy the trailer directly @ the factory in Boonville or from a dealer? Been past it on my tris to Maine.

2016 regular cab long bed 4x4, 1616 miles on it now, liking it a lot.

The nephew pestered me to get a GMC, because of the better lighting. I wasn't too keen on the black plastic fillers in the bumper. I guess I could've gotten then dipped "chrome"

 

It's too bad that the non-fog lamp equipped trucks couldn't get a "plain" bumper. That is what has turned me off the GMCs since the GMT800 models (big gaping black "holes" in the bumper).

What do you like aout it? It does look nice! I like the classic HD rims and tires That's a cool old looking garage.

Yep, it's an old school, small town dealership. There aren't too many of those around any more. And, thanks! Those are just the standard 17" LT rims. I'm going to run them through the winter, and then upgrade to some aftermarket rims. The chrome 18's were an extra $1,295, and I'm not a huge fan of chrome anyway...so I just went with the cheaper ones. Had the dealer swap the little 265/70/17's for some 285/75/17's. They're 34" tall, and help fill out the wheel wells much better.

 

It's better than my 2012 1500 in many ways! It may be hard to believe, but the driving manners are much more smooth and comfortable. The 6.0/6L80E/4:10 drivetrain is a great setup. It accelerates without revving to the moon (unlike my old 5.3). And, it will hold 6th gear on the highway, regardless of hills or head winds (also unlike my old 5.3). It sits taller. The brakes are better. The factory exhaust sounds better. The cab is quieter and sealed up better. It will handle the weight of my camper/ATV/camping gear much better. It's just a whole lot more truck than my old 1500. It's also the first crew cab I've owned, and I already enjoy the extra room. I also like the new dash, new interior, and new technology...although I realize those last few things aren't specific to the 2500HD platform.

 

Big Whiskey,

 

Nice traditional GM HD look. Is that a 4x4? Thanks.

Thank you. I'm really enjoying it! Yes, it's a 4x4 Z71.
