I had a 14 Silverado and the offset between the seat and steering wheel was all times on my last nerve. I even took it to the dealer to make sure I wasn't the only screwed one. I'm so happy with my 19 which everything is aligned perfectly. I agree with you. The seats are stiff. My 14 was more comfortable.

Three of my lifters on my 2021 6.2L Denali started clanking about 4900 miles. The dealer said they had a bad batch of lifters that got installed and replaced all of my lifters and rods. You'd think after all these years it would be fixed but GM just keeps on using the same design. Also not to mention its a gas guzzler! This one is going to new home as soon as I can get the 2023 3.0l Duramax

I had the same problem with Apple Wireless Carplay cutting out on my 2021 AT4 too. The dealer performed a software update on the radio and I have never had the problem since. This was an update the dealer had to do, it was not an over-the-air update to the radio. My update was done in March and I have not had a problem since.

You make great videos! I agree with you on everything. This is my first GMC truck (the last 10 years in a truck for me have been spent in Fords). Here’s my list of annoying things with this truck: - all wheel options are not very nice - fuel tank is way too small - wireless charger is very slow charging - power button for charging should be default on - column shift (much prefer the console shifter from my Ford) -console compartment is one giant box (should have come with an organizer) - top passenger side glove box is ugly and useless. Keep it a flat dash with an AT4 logo would be way better. - interior is functional and clean but not very aesthetically pleasing compared to competitors in its class. - my radio has been changed out once already and needs to be for a second time (cuts out and sometimes camera doesn’t work) - Bose stereo ( the Sony one in my 2015 Lariat was much better and it shouldn’t be) - non adjustable pedals That’s what I’ve observed over my 4 months of ownership on mine. Without a doubt its a nice truck and is certainly badass but there’s an extensive list of things that bother me. Keep up the content Don. It’s quality content.

I love the stock wheels. Tank is way too small. I drove across Kansas this past weekend and the computer said I would go 448 miles. I would like to get at least 600 with the 6.2 and want the larger tank. I like the column shift. I dislike the current trend of rotating wheels the new fords have. I use the top glovebox for gloves. I keep a few pair there as well as napkins and a flashlight. I like the interior. In fact, imho it’s leaps and bounds over the Ford which is why I went gmc over Ford.

My at4 was doing the same thing it would connect to android auto play or car play. It would show that it is connected but no audio. So since it was annoying to deal with it while driving. I deleted the car play app in my phone and just connected to regular Bluetooth connectivity, and it work perfectly. Maeby try that instead of the old fashion way with the auxiliary cable.

The pause/rewind/fast forward on the radio has its place but unless I’ve missed something, it doesn’t work as a true mute button (21 AT4 w/ 3 l diesel). Press the mute and it pauses and then you have to fast forward to get back to the program. Little thing but for me it’s annoying. The mirror features are great. Agree too on the look. It just looks like a truck should. Appreciate your videos.

I love you channel :-) I have a 2021 Yukon XL Denali and after 3000 mileage on my way down to the Keys I failed the engine due to the lifter problem, I had to fight with them for a brand new engine and they took y car for a month. It look like that mechanic that replaced my engine probably was pulling milk from the cow before due to all the mistakes and broken components I found when I open the hood. I give them a 3 month old brand new vehicle and they did not return in the same condition. Where is the GMC quality, where are the ASE trained mechanic ? a big huge thump down to GMC with this 6.2 liter, never again in my life GMC

Found this on a forum - If you have these packages, you should be good: Optional on all trims: PTT Trailer Tire Pressure Monitor Sensors, includes set of 4 sensors. Sensor functionality requires (U1D) In-vehicle Trailering App to be ordered with the vehicle and installed by the factory. Sensors will be shipped loose with the truck and will need to be installed on trailer by customer. System is capable of monitoring up to 6 wheels. Additional or replacement sensors are available through GM Accessories These 3 are standard on 1500 SLT, AT4 and Denali ProGrade Trailering System, includes (PZ8) Hitch Guidance with Hitch View and (U1D) In-vehicle Trailering App Hitch Guidance with Hitch View with image adjustment, Pan/Zoom/Tilt - Included and only available with (ZL6) ProGrade Trailering System. In-vehicle Trailering App, System, includes checklist, trailer maintenance reminders, trailer security alerts, trailer mileage, tow/haul reminder and trailer electrical diagnostics - Included and only available with (ZL6) ProGrade Trailering System.

I bought it with 27k on it and at 35k the lifters failed and they had to replace the entire motor not replace the lifters. Took a week to do and it seems like the new one is starting to make the same noises as last time with only 16k on it right now and the oil pressure is dropping really low, I do not like the AFM system. I have it disabled with the odm module but those lifters with the 5w oil are just crap. Love the truck, the motor but not that option

Debating on the at4 6.2 or diesel what does the 6.2 get for fuel mileage? I know the 3.0 in line 6 gets 26-30 mpgs but can’t find a good video for the 6.2 mpg wise! Help
@Donslife

I think I get 14-17mpg depending on what I am doing with the truck. Small tank and I get get between 340-400 miles out of it (550-650km). You might be able to squeeze a little more savings out if it, but I like to accelerate to the speed limit. 🤷🏻‍♂️

A heads up for anyone owning a GMC/Chev with the 5.7 or 6.2 engines from 2019-2023. Research proves GM is trying to protect themselves from the added costs of replacing a defective oil cooler line.The issue is at the engine block where the inlet and out cooler lines attach to a external adaptor to the engine block. When the outside temperature is cold and you start your engine, the engine oil heats up. At some point the high pressure line will have a catastrophic failure dumping your oil on the the pavement. If not shut down quick enough, your engine will lock up. GM not only has a national back order on the oil cooler line but also has a back order on the engines leaving you without a truck and possible payments. Proof is in the pudding! Research “Global Safety Field Investigations DCS5833. GM says the defect only on certain VIN trucks sold in Canada and Alaska. This is false! Research proves trucks in several states who have diverse cold temperatures are having cooler line failures. Look up GM N212326940 This should be a National Recall for every GM/Chev. truck sold! ATTENTION: If You have purchased these trucks, PURCHASE the Extended Warranty package that covers the engine/transmission. GM is getting away not paying on vehicles after 60,000 miles until the owners file enough complaints with the Federal Trade Commission and NHTSA. I was able to purchase the cooler line from the Chev dealer in Canada but after it was installed, they said the 6.2L engine was locked up would need to be replaced on my extended warranty
