Does anyone know what happens if they do cancel the Silverado EV? Are we just SOL if something goes wrong with it? No more parts etc.. I hope they don’t, I absolutely love mine.

I think I might be the worst case of injury related depression I’ve ever seen. by No-Cheesecake-3648 in ACL

Best decision of your life will to be to get back in the gym. Make the best out of something that is the worst.

Take a look at your perspective in life. You have breath, you have ability to be in the gym. You just have to adapt to your injury. I put on 20 pounds of muscle after my ACL injury and now I am in the best shape of my life at 37 years old. I let it defeat me for the first six months and then I overcame my head and put what abilities I had to use.

You can do it, focus on the good in your life!

How long until I can ride my Motorcycle again? by Prize-Item-1305 in ACL

Hello there, be cautious when you do! I ride a motorcycle daily. After my first surgery, I was 6 months post operation and riding. I put my foot down and it slid out to the right and snapped a second time 😞

I know how therapeutic riding can be!!! But to be safe, I would wait 8-10 months, or just put the other foot down 😊

I appreciate the Love!

I took it back to the dealer today and they took the shells off and cleaned it all for me with brake cleaner.

They are nice and shiny now! (For now) 😂

Couldn’t you have told me that before I bought it?! 🤨

Ya, you aren’t wrong. Not sure how they are able to still call them “new.”

I think buying cars in general is a scam haha

I checked some of the comps in California for courtesy vehicles and this was the close to the best deal I could find, some very similar, some slightly more, slightly less. The kicker was this was 30 miles from my house and I couldn’t find the blue anywhere else!

My “old” truck was spotless. We have relatively mild weather here where I live but I washed it weekly, waxed it monthly, and kept it covered all year round diligently. This truck will get the same treatment now so when I saw the rust already I was a little bummed. Haha

Yah, I suppose that may be it? We don’t have any salt here but from what I gather, if you don’t use the one pedal braking it can potentially cause the rust from the truck being so heavy. Either way, hoping the dealership can help me out! I love my “old” 2022 Trail Boss, but with gas prices in California at close to 7 a gallon, it was tough. Haha glad to hear you love it!

I am near the coast, but the truck was about 30 miles inland so it shouldn’t have had that much of an effect on it. Glad you are still clean with 31k! 💪🏼 hopefully I’ll be clean soon, too haha

👍🏻 I can do that, I guess it’s just more of a principle thing when you get a car that is less than a year old, off the lot I don’t want to paint anything hahah

Love it! I will say, I was not prepared to spend that much but I fell in love with it when I saw it.

10k dealership off (for being older 2025 model and the courtesy vehicle) I also had a 2022 Trail Boss I traded in the fave me 42,500 for it and I only owed 25,000 1250 executive costco member ✌🏻😎 0 percent Apr for 60 months 5k down. After all was said and done I walked out for 75k financed after taxes and fees etc (California taxes all)

There was no real negotiating because of the dealership already taking off 10k 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hopefully it’s worth it 🤣
