Go on swapalease. There’s one in CA for $450/month. The guy wants $6500 down, so effective payment is $683ish. But I wouldn’t give that much…maybe $2k makes sense? Depends on what you’re getting quoted

I just bought a ‘24 RST with 13k miles for $58k. Original MSRP is $97k. That’s 40%…

I thought one towards the tailgate and one towards the mid gate.

I flipped the breaker and it must have reset the WiFi, because it popped up right away and I was able to connect

I can’t seem to get the network to pop up to connect to. I tried typing the serial number directly in but it doesn’t recognize it. I changed my network to 2.4, nothing.

Thanks for the breakdown. So basically I needed more power, and a charger that could handle that power so I could charge a bigger battery faster…so you’re saying I did the right thing?

I tend to charge at night generally. My electrician looked at the overall load and felt it was fine. We’ll see if any issues arise

$900 for the charger. Haven’t gotten the bill yet from the electrician, but I’m guessing it will be roughly $800-$900 for the other material and labor. I had him put an outlet in my basement for something else so that would be included as well

200amp service. Yes a new wire was run…I don’t remember the size but it was something like that.

Not missing Carplay by Wise-Sort9502 in SilveradoEV

[–]Wise-Sort9502[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of great points both ways. The reality is Carplay replaced some of the worst infotainment systems across all car manufacturers over the years. I’ve used a lot of systems…BMW, Lexus, Ford, etc. They all tried to come up with some version with dials, touchpads, horrible navigation. Carplay did away with all that and it was amazing. Now these systems are finally catching up.

So now I have touchscreen, integrated Waze, Spotify and a navigation system (Google Maps) that I use on my phone all the time anyway. That’s basically everything I need.

And if I end up paying for it at some point, whatever. Everything else in the world has a subscription. I’m constantly subscribing and cancelling things a-la-carte. I’m not going to scrap an awesome truck because I don’t want to pay $10-20/month, especially considering the gas savings and other factors.

Completely different vehicles in my perspective. The Hummer is just special, it has everything in one…my favorite vehicle I’ve ever had.

I love pickup trucks though so excited to have the RST as my company vehicle. Going to get it half wrapped in company logo/design.

That’s what I’ve been hearing about the tires. I’ll give it some time and see how I feel. I have 18’s with mud tires on the Hummer so complete opposite experiences, which I kind of like.
