Just completed my first six-hour road trip in the truck. Mostly just been toodling around town in and out and watching MPGs. Did a lot of highway driving today and tried letting it eat one time... Its able to get up and go and let's just say it'll go a heck of a lot faster top speed than I ever want to go and it gets up there in a hurry!
I see you removed the decals on the back quarter, I did that too! Looks so much cleaner!The first week and a bit was pretty busy with appointments for the truck. I think the wife is starting to get angry.? One last appointment to have the cap windows tinted and ppf on headlights and fogs. That won't happen until September as they are booked up.
Washed her up today after having it oil sprayed yesterday and don't like how the gatorbacks are sitting on the rear. Going to loosen them off later today and fix or my ocd will get me going crazy.
Yeah, I didn't like the XTR logo back there. Was something they removed during PDI.
That's one great looking truck!!
So far so smooth. Drove it 500 kms day 1 to break her in a bit.
Mine just had the generic 4x4 decals, I peeled them the first time I washed the truck, no effort st all and left little residue behind. Your truck looks great, is it black or antimatter?
Dealer told me the second it rolled off the carrier there were 4 ppl wanting to buy it right away ?
Thank you, it is the Agate Black. Slowly getting it to where I want it. Brought our 5000lbs travel trailer home today so I could setup a equal-i-zer weight distribution hitch. She towed pretty amazing. So far, very happy with this 3.5 eco.
I really like those wheels but unfortunately they just don't hold up well where I live. Years ago, Pennsylvania starting putting this liquid salt brine on the roads before a storm and it just eats chrome wheels if you have to drive in it.Thank you, it is the Agate Black.

Hope to get bug deflector on this week, couple of rock chips already. Then it's almost time to start looking for winter tires. Sled season can't come soon enough.

Looks great, mine is also agate black and it does have a very slight blue hue in certain light! Loving the color. I think I am going to add color match mirror caps and I think that will be it!Thank you, it is the Agate Black. Slowly getting it to where I want it.

Southern Ontario uses the brine too. Looking for new wheels for summer and these will be for winters. I wash my vehicles a lot and gives these types of wheels a little extra care. Clean them really well before storing is key. I also give them a coat of the Mothers Chrome Polish every couple of months. If they are anything like my old cruze or atlas wheels they should hold up pretty well for the 4 months they are used.
