Good luck, MD and Northern VA construction zones sucked earlier this week! Fuel cost all the way down seemed similar to what you see on the NJ Turnpike!
I'm towing a trailer I'll be in the right lane going 60mph. For MD drivers the RIGHT lane is the slow lane the LEFT is the fast/passing lane. Oh and there are these things called turn signals.

Did u hvv o add the gm3 or 5 harness, to sync with pioneer and did u get the MRR2.
I would have to go back and "build it" again on there website.
that's what you need to do is go on there website and input all your information, it depends on the year/make/model, steering wheel buttons, oem radio type and aftermarket radio to be used.

The foam from The Seat Shop is excellent - better than OEM in my opinion. And their replacement leather is also top notch. I used their seat foam but ended up getting the leather from eBay. That said, I'm pleasantly surprised by how well it's holding up.

Good to hear about the review on that leather.
I have used Katzkin leather on other cars and their stuff is fantastic, at least it was 22 years ago when I first installed one of their kits.
Seats still look great all these years and 250k miles later.

I have 5 tires with sensors on both of mine. For the GMT900 it doesn't care which 4 are programmed. One of those could be the spare. If you have a flat it's going to just set a nag on the DIC.
It would be nice if GM would show all 5 sensors on the DIC. I had a flat, put on the spare (which doesn’t come with a TPS) so the DIC showed 0 on the DIC. Problem is that I then got into a snowstorm and found out the 4x4 didn’t work and there wasn’t a workaround. C’mon GM give me a work around!

4wd didn't work while the spare was on.. ouch. don't get snow here but that seems like it would suck up north unless you had the awd system you can't turn off.


seems the only work around is to add a sensor to the spare and toss a programer in the glove box. reprogram the sensors. I've not done it on this truck yet, but my car it took like a min to walk around and beep each sensor with a 30$ tool.

I wasn’t aware that tpms sensors were required for the 4wd to work.

Wish the gauges thing worked on the NBS, but I'll get over it.

with the right radio and adapter they would, all it is, is 2 wires on the obd port to the module and then to the radio, will work on any vehicle or "should"
radio just needs to have the vehicle interface option.

I actually had a very similar radio in my 00 and my 03 I just wasn't aware of the idatalink's existence at the time for 1 because I didn't need it to make the radio work. I didn't have bose so I just installed amps and speakers, the maestro was not even on the radar.....

Well, I asked iDatalink about mine and they said it wouldn't do it (even with an iDatalink-compatible Kenwood HU).

that seems strange, I could see it not interfacing with certain things but tpms and obd data are pretty universal.
but I went and looked it looks like they only support 2007+
seems like there would be a way to do it, but that is a rabbit hole
other easy options are a bluetooth adapter, and app's

New rear shocks... car feel so much better. Guess I didn't realize how bad they were getting.

Also did an oil change.

from the pic that looks just like torque app and that app is open source. so I'd guess yours right, as long as the radio you pick will support the app and had Bluetooth to a cheap dongle. it seems like it should work.

might be a blue too plug in missing but the pids for the standard obd 2 data is the same for both trucks. I don't see how the radio would know it's in a 06 vs and 07?

Those old shocks were toast.
Since they wear ever so slightly it is easy not to notice how bad they have gotten over the years.
It was a night and day difference on every car I've done shocks and struts on.
Was very noticeable when I did all four on my sister's 2009 Silverado.
My brother in law couldn't believe the difference and he hardly ever drives the truck.
