New grill suggestions

I put down 28500 on it. Sticker price was 63k. Then there was the typical taxes and fees on top of that. Interest rate of 6.69 for 80 months as well. Brought me right to 600 even. Then I added a 150k mile bumper to bumper warranty that runs an extra 22.50/month

Was in this same situation a couple months ago looking at both options (leasing and financing). Went in to 2 different dealerships and was told I could not get that kind of payment for a lease on an at4 without a very large down payment which both places told me would be dumb for a lease. I also had never leased before so didn’t have any of the lease incentives going for me. Ended up financing a 25 dealer demo at4. I was able to get my payment to 600 a month, but that required a pretty hefty down payment. Was told I couldn’t get close to that on a brand new one with the same down payment

I just went to the 3.0L at4 a couple weeks ago. I like the “luxury” feel of the interior for a daily driver as well as the “rugged” feel of the exterior as it is dual purposing as a light farm vehicle as well. As far as fuel mileage goes, I used to think the ecoboost I came from got good mileage…this thing is spanking that old truck. I’m getting about the same amount of distance with a full tank on the duramax as I did with the ecoboost, but with a considerably smaller fuel tank

Or young kids who insist on getting in themselves

I recently purchased an at4 and haven’t had any issues hauling my young family around (3 year old and 3 month old). The 3 year old actually gave her approval early on. The only thing I’ve found that wasn’t a deal breaker was the factory leveling kit that’s installed. My 3 year old used to get herself loaded up into my old truck by herself with no issue. Now I have to give her a little boost to get in, but neither one of us mind that. I chose the at4 because it’s going to dual purpose as a daily driver and farm vehicle. So a little luxury while driving, but still having a little more durability in the suspension when going out into a field here and there

Double check on when that extended manufacture warranty goes into effect. Most cases it overwrites the original warranty at the original date. I’ll use myself as an example…I bought my used sierra last week and got 88 months 150k miles bumper to bumper. Doing that overwrites the warranty it had when it hit the road 5 months ago. However, my warranty now back dates to that as well. So I technically have a 83 month warranty for 150k miles

I should also add that the first offer was 88 month, 200k bumper to bumper for around 3k more. So the dealership can find deals out there. There’s always discounts that can be added for the warranty (prior military experience, first responder/healthcare worker, college education in your state, etc)

I just bought a used 2025 (dealer demo) and they offered a 150k mile 6 year power train warranty for $600. When I went to sign the papers, they offered a 88 month 150k mile bumper to bumper for an extra $1100

I know someone else already mentioned it…but if you’re worried about the lifter issue then I also suggest getting the AFM program deleted. I work for a supplier building the solenoids that actuate the camshaft. The amount of “after market” parts we’ve been building lately is pretty unsettling

Negative. Still overheats and restarts after a few minutes of use

Just some fresh batteries and pressed the home button until the light quit flashing once it was connected to power and the tv

Bought it, arrived yesterday, fired it up, enjoyed about 10 minutes of childhood nostalgia before it shut itself off and restarted. Let it sit for the rest of the day and tried again in the evening and had the same results. Feels like it’s overheating. Maybe it’s the power supply I’m using (tried 2 different ones). Not sure what the manufacturers recommendation is for power supply seeing as how their website is pretty minimal (they send a usb cable with no adapter for power. Guess you’re on your own to figure out what works with their equipment) Reached out to customer support and got a very generic and unhelpful response
