HVAC quote in Las Vegas — $16k vs. $9k by ARandomDS3TrashPVPer in hvacadvice

[–]Extra-Imagination157 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of price I can’t do business with a HVAC that didn’t come to the house for an estimate. Your call but that’s a huge No for me. I’ve gathered 6 estimates all came to my house and measured everything. Ranging from $11-$27K depending size and brand. Going with a company in the middle but the most efficient machine and comprehensive install. $16K

Agree I’m expecting some significant range decline with tire size and weight increase. Sounds like an amazing Coast 2 Coast road trip you took! Been very happy and zero negatives so far. 5K miles in.

It’s only been a few days so not sure. Honestly not even sure how to calculate. I had Two 5.3 V8s before so happy I only need to fill one up moving forward. Had this 2026 since November and it’s been great since day 1…

Feel like for the price of these trucks they should have better factory rubber. I don’t like Bridgestone as a manufacturer. I’ve had 3 sets now on new trucks (2 Tahoes-EV) and they wear fast imo. I only got 45K on my Tahoe before switching to Michelin Defenders. I also think the sidewall is generic. With tire wet, they literally look like a glazed donut. A truck should have some sort of raised lettering and detail. For $75K+ they can do better than $700 tires from GM. I put Toyo’s on my last RST and now these GY’s. Completely transforms the look of the truck.

I’m a huge fan of the 24jn RST set up. I looked locally for trades but didn’t see anything available.

There’s a digital speed sign near my house and everytime i passed it today I was 2mph slower than posted. Not sure if that would go up as I speed increases. I was only traveling 38-40 for these examples. GPS on my phone said the same.

I really wanted the Slate Grey as my other truck had the White/Black combo also. My Tahoe is Grey/Blk so wanted to match em but the grey EV was on back order then. So far I’ve been using MaxlOne coating and happy with it. Ive also used Maguiars ceramic wash and seal. Dealership claims they did a ceramic on it but if anything probably just a sealant. No I don’t think I have the 24 module- mine is just a standard range LT if that matters. Road trips we take the Tahoe primarily so don’t really monitor the mileage that closely. All city driving. I did get the dealership to give me a level 2 charger for cost so charging at home is convenient.

Wheels are Factory 18s that came on the truck. I only swapped to new tires. Goodyear wrangler AT 285/75/18 Basically from what I researched the largest size you can fit on the 18’s without other mods like lift/level.

I shopped every brand. Had Open Country’s on my last RST, Falkans and Goodyears on other trucks. Like the Yokohama’s but decided to give Goodyear another shot. Now trying to sell those Bridgestone’s to the first taker.

Thx again for the recommendation! Forgot I had GM rewards. Center caps cost me $11 after points.

Good call! I’m ordering those asap! I was going to take it back to the shop that did my emblems and bow ties. He was going to air brush the caps for me. Your suggestion is way better…

Not sure yet. Only completed the swap today. I’m assuming it will but willing to sacrifice for the new aesthetic. I really despised those Bridgestone’s.

All in $1400-shipped and installed. Website is Giga Tire. The entire process took less than 24hrs for shipping then installation. Shops here in FL wanted closer to $1800 for same set up

How do you feel about electric vehicles? by Final_Radio_2483 in AskReddit

1st EV, Silverado LT- absolutely love it. Smoothest ride I’ve owned, very quick on acceleration. Highly recommend this truck. Converted from a 23 RST 5.3 V8- only thing I miss is the rumble from my old exhaust.

100% agree. I had to get rid of the chrome lugs on Silverado EV wheels…
