Nice looking truck we just got 6 delivered at the dealership this week.

Real nice truck! Looked at an identical one up here.
Amazing how you get it to stick to the ceiling. LOL

Congratulations! That's pretty much the same model I'm looking at. I was curious as to the payload sticker vs. the website, myself. Doesn't seem like too much "fall off". Hope you enjoy it and maybe I'll be showing my new TV on here before long!
Happy trails and safe travels!

Nice truck... I also have the Impact 311 that I pull with a Ford. Let me know what kind of mileage you get pulling your Impact. I wish my truck did a little better in the mileage range but it feels strong pulling a trailer. I have no doubt yours will pull like a train up hill.

Will do. Still several weeks away from a decent length tow. I'm just hoping (I know it will be) better than the 6mpg my gasser used to get.

I had the towing camera system installed this week and it's well worth the money. Clear views down both sides. Getting the camera installed on the back of the camper this week. That will give me a chance to try it out in taking it to and from the dealer. I really like this addition. Glad I went with it. It comes on automatically with the turn signals so no need to change anything while driving. Very clear pictures and video. And I'm getting 19 mpg out of a 1 ton. I wish my 1500 would have done that!

Nice truck. I really like the looks of the current GM truck line. Now I must warn you. You may be tempted to race the guy in the sporty car next to you at the red light. Even with the trailer hooked to the truck you might be able to beat him to the next light. It is not worth the ticket.

LOL! I'm too cheap to pay a fine, so I'm more of a cruise control man. I do like to rev it up and get everybody's hear rate going and then let the red sports car guy play the fool. I'll consider a warning courtesy of Officer Ken.

I wanted to follow up on the factory installed GM/Chevy camera system. It us a great option. When you turn the blinkers on the appropriate side camera camera comes on and gives a great view. No need to do any screen poking. The back up camera when trailer is connected can be left on while driving or turned off. I've done it both ways. It is a huge help. In my opinion, it's a great option and I would definitely purchase it again. There you go.

I am a fan of the new hood scoop on the chubby. The engine improvements for 2017 should be good too

Thanks for the update on the camera system. I'm actually thinking about having it installed on mine. And I agree on the mileage! I'm getting 19 unloaded and 11 with the camper hooked up. HUGE improvement over my half ton and with power to spare!

Mine is also factory installed but I can find nothing in the manual regarding leaving it on while in Forward.
As for the camera, I also pull a boat and utility trailer. It is a tremendous asset when hooking up....can usually position the ball on the first try!

So nice when they fit in the garage. I built my truck so it would fit in mine. 18" wheels instead of 20" and no overhead clearance lights.
