FS: Some 2014-19 Accessories; Sold my 2014 CC Std Bed Silverado, bought a 2019+...

Bobber · September 23, 2019

Haven't posted on here a whole lot, particularly in the last couple of years - just been driving the heck out my truck! With 163k on it and the transmission starting to act the way it did prior to having it replaced under extended warranty (@109kin Oct 2017), I decided that I should get out of it before it cost me the nearly $5k that the dealer would have charged without the warranty.

So, I'm now a proud owner of a 2019+ (new 2020 body)... Most everything else (feature-wise) is the same (as I really liked the last truck, all things considered). I'll post content about the new one in the new (2019-2020) forum section...

(For those that want to know about residual value on my 2014... They gave me $14,153 for my truck, which for this dealership is a "purchase/buy back" or "trade" value; they would buy for that price regardless of taking on trade or not for a another/new vehicle). He considered my truck to be in Very Good condition; actually commented about how clean it looked inside and out which surprised me. And, I am not one of those OCD types that keeps my truck spotless... - no disrespect intended if you are one of those folks -- just saying that I didn't even wash it to remove the bugs from my last trip to the UP, one week prior; let alone spend any time making it 'pretty' before taking it in to look for a replacement!

But, I did pull a few things off the truck before trading it in, and have other item(s) I won't need anymore:

I have the Helms Manuals for 2014 that I no longer need (and want to get the 2019 set when they come available). It represents about 30# of paper, and I wouldn't even begin to estimate how much time it saved me. (just wish it as a pdf with links to related tasks!)

I also have the Tekonsha P3 Trailer Brake Controller and left IP panel (the headlight & transfer case switch panel, see pic below) available with the P3 harness for direct plug-in. You can find my posts with pictures related to the install here:

The P3 was ~$135 and the replacement IP cover was $25... So, if I can get $110 (+actual shipping costs) for the pair I'd be ok with that. (My new truck has a built in Trailer Brake Controller)

My Truxedo Tonneautrax is also for sale, and is no longer available from Truxedo - apparently they can't source the side rails anymore... I used the adjustable tie-down points that are part of that system (250# rating per point) a few times since they sit higher than the ones in the bed and can be moved anywhere along the length; but the tonneau hasn't been installed for a few years now. I'll need to get the tonneau cleaned up and new pictures taken of it (for anyone interested). It has been sitting in the garage... (I hadn't removed the Century Cap (Hi-C) for the last 3 summers - until two weeks ago for trade-in).

I know new Truxedo tonneaus are almost $500... and everyone worries about "old vinyl" due to UV, so used ones don't usually garner anything close to new prices. This one not having been installed for several years (and sitting in the back corner of the garage); and having been treated with conditioner before I stored it... I'd think it would be a good unit to own; especially with the added features of the adjustable load-points that you can't get anymore. I'm open to discuss offers.

I have a BedRug, TGC07 (for '07+ GMT900 thru early 2019 K2XX Std Bed). It was mostly camped in/on, very little usage with any real loads other than lumber... and a snowblower & lawn mower a few times each. I'll post up some better pix to anyone interested, this pic was taken right after I pulled it out (I need to vacuum/pressure wash it). As stated above, I had my Century Cap installed on the truck for most of the truck's life, or the tonneau installed; so this was "under cover" all of it's life.

I'd like to get close to $300 for it... BedRug still charges the same price for these as they do the newest ones ($439; both are available on Amazon for $390). Bedrug provides replacement velcro; but I didn't use most of the velcro attachments points (the 2014 had a Line-X liner as well); so there is a lot of velcro still useable. The full width velcro (hook) piece at the top of the tailgate is really the only "truck-side" piece that I can't include with the set.

The new (2019) truck bed is actually 1 or 2" longer, the bed rails are further apart (tail gate width), and floor of the bed is wider (for 2019+ they pushed the inner walls of the fenders out by about 3" on each side and narrowed the width of the top rail of the bed).

The Century Cap (Hi-C) I had on the 2014 is getting traded for the new one that's unique to the '19/'20; just waiting for it to come in. But, if you live in the Madison, WI area and want a really nice camper shell (~39" opening height from bed rug to top of rear window glass, its about 6" taller than the cab)... Stop into Jerry's Camper Service and tell Dan I sent you...

Is the helms manual specific to the 2014 year or does it also cover 2015?

Bobber · September 25, 2019

2014 only. I don’t know how similar 2015’s are. But the book set states 2014 on each cover.

Can a moderator move this to For Sale for me?

Thanks!

Can anyone else comment on similarities or differences between 2014 and 2015? I know the body didn't change much except maybe trim and headlamps; and the dash looks the same. Powetrains are all the same... I doubt too much changed electrically until the 2016 (I think) with WiFi Hotspot, wireless phone charging, and stuff like that...

So it would probably depend on how optioned your truck is as to whether it would do you well as a complete reference, or be missing key content for ya if you had a 2016+.
