You have to at least get some door mats with “Welcome to The Machine” to put next to the truck if you’re at a show.


Have it play a synth solo clip from that song when you unlock it with the fob. Could probably be done with a basic Arduino. Maybe have the interior lights slowly brighten or even slow strobe or slowly morph through the RGB colors. Layer of stage fog lines the floor and rolls out over the custom sill plates when you open the door... Oh, you gotta have some lasers in the fog, too...

:p We just went from a simple logo to a full-on car show scene.

Drove mine for the first time in over a week. Fuel light came on so I put $15 of 93 in to get me just under 1/4 tank.

I quit filling it up since it just sits and, if I'm not mistaken, the PCM switches to a lower octane table if the tank hasn't been refilled in a certain amount of time. So, putting a little fuel in it for that day's drive would keep it in the higher octane table so I can actually benefit from the 93. I can't say for sure how accurate all that is. But it at least keeps me from having 20 gallons of expensive fuel sitting in the tank for a month, just going stale.

Do you still have the mirror onstar? I thought they were discontinuing support for those....

In regard to mirror Onstar for an 08 Denali. After two failed attempts they were able to update the software in the (almost) dead technology to get the digital turn by turn Navi operational in the DIC as well as the hands free calling working again. Overall got 200 free talk min and 4 mo Onstar premier service.

The minutes are through the old carrier, Verizon, not ATT.

I have not heard that and not sure it is accurate. I do know these vehicles will go into a "low power sleep mode? if not started etc in over XX days.

I ordered new carpet, embroidered floor mats and Katzkin leather to go with the console I also ordered for the Silverado. Along with the LTZ dash and Esky cluster it really will look like a new Machine on the inside. Trying to stay busy with mods this winter.
Where did you end up getting carpet?

I got them from www.ocautocarpets.com. Last time I ordered from www.stockinteriors.com but they’re both distributors for ACC (Auto Custom Carpets) who is the manufacturer. OC was cheaper by about $50 shipped on the carpet which paid for half of the mats that have a maroon bowtie embroidered in them. I went with plush pile carpet with mass backing for maximum thickness.

Wow..... Decent prices. If the burb comes back happy, I'm going to treat her to some new carpet and other upgrades

A buddy that tunes has mentioned it to me a few times over the years. My fill-ups happen every 3-4 weeks, so I just thought it was the older gas going a little stale. I'm always feeling more response and "oomph" after filling up so I've never really questioned it. The basic story as I understand it is that a timer (of sorts) runs from a fill-up event and the PCM adjusts accordingly if X amount of time passes without the float arm in the tank going back up. I doubt it has to be a complete fill-up, I'd imagine it to be a sustained specified percentage higher than where it was for it to switch tables. IIRC, he said its purpose was to account for the fuel losing some of it's octane rating as it sits.

You know anything of this?

ACC FTW. I've used their products quite a few times. Quality stuff.
