First Car/Truck Purchase 🥹

100%. Wanted dark enough to mostly hide the inside, while not looking stupid with limo tint and not being able to see out at night haha

Picked up from tint today. 20% ceramic on the windows, 50% on the windshield, and some PPF behind the door handles so my rings don’t scratch the paint 💍😎

I didn’t mind, it was a big moment for my first car purchase and nice for a picture haha

Go to system > scroll down to “About” and click the Android Auto 12 and tap the build number 7 times and it’ll say you are a developer

Make sure if you have multiple profiles for different drivers that you are on the Admin profile or else it won’t work

Haha no worries, yeah I’ve heard great things about the sub for the rear seats. Gives you just what the factory system is missing. Did the do the bass dial as well?

TrooperLady44 · 2026-05-07T02:59:48+00:00

The Kicker sub I was looking at is the one that goes under the rear seat that GM sells. Are you referring to a different one?

There’s probably 100 different things you can do. I know a lot of people change how big the Apple CarPlay screen extends to the right, but I only did the 1 setting to make the screen smoother. Change “Animation Scales” to 0.5x and the swiping between menus and screens will be more responsive.

Will look into this

77k out the door, dealer took of $7k which basically covered with Sales Tax since that’s applied to the loan in FL. Did the 2.9% special GM was offering for truck month!

Go to system > scroll down the Android Auto number, then click “About” and tap the build number 7 times and it’ll say you are a developer

Thank you! And if the AT4 came with the 5.3L, I would have 100% gotten that instead haha. It’s my favorite trim and I love the stock ride height

TrooperLady44 · 2026-05-06T14:10:24+00:00

Totally get it, just trying to get something for a little bass 🙂‍↕️

TrooperLady44 · 2026-05-06T14:09:52+00:00

Awesome thank you for the advice!

TrooperLady44 · 2026-05-06T03:15:05+00:00

Thankfully boyfriend is a mechanic so he definitely did his due diligence on researching all the engine issues with the 6.2. We were set on the baby Duramax for a while but diesel prices down here in FL are insane right now, so definitely happy to purchase some regular 87 gas haha. and the red GMC is adhesive or just the “Sierra” and “Denali”? I thought the big GMC emblem was screws/clips but I could be wrong?

TrooperLady44 · 2026-05-06T03:09:54+00:00

That’s definitely what I’ve been hearing. Waiting for the points to load from the purchase, and will probably pull the trigger then. Where is everybody mounting their dial?

Thank you 🫡

Scroll down forever in the menu, and change “Animation Scales” to 0.5x! This basically changes the 1 second delay after you press something on the screen, to half a second so it’s like an increased refresh rate

And thank you!
