  1. Silverado EV vs F150 Lightning - direct in-person comparison

    In a way they don't. They want the user to be able to install all the accessories that they could on their ICE F-150 on their new Lightning, but more importantly they are using the current generation of Lightning as a stepping stone to get to a new truck on a dedicated EV platform. When that...
  2. 2024 Silverado EV SRT standing against 2022 F150 lightning Platinum @ North Texas Auto Show 2022.

    I agree. I know the next generation of trucks will be better, they always are, and that will be especially true as we move to electric. I just don't want to wait beyond 2024, and truthfully I don't want to wait that long. I usually buy the vehicle I am looking for within a couple months of...
  3. 2024 Silverado EV SRT standing against 2022 F150 lightning Platinum @ North Texas Auto Show 2022.

    Ford probably won't have an Lightning with those capabilities until 2026 at the earliest. I would assume you will be able to get the Silverado before then. Of course the next gen Lightning could/probably will have even faster charging and more range than the Silverado. Things are going to...
  4. New Blazer SS EV

    The charge port does look Lyric based. I assume it is another BEV3 platform vehicle (pretty much everything on Ultium will be BEV3 or BET for the foreseeable future). Wish they were coming out with a 3 row sooner instead of another 2 row small to mid-size SUV (Blazer and Equinox).
  5. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    They will be around. Don't fall for the doom and gloom stuff. They are ramping at one of the worst possible times (maybe only worse in mid 2020). They aren't going as fast as others think they should, but this is the first I have seen an actual production goal for a full year. Before it was...
  6. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    Yeah I wasn't expecting mine this year anyway. Hoping my second half 2023 still is possible. If not that does push it into Silverado timing. My choice isn't solely based on timing, but that would become less of an advantage to Rivian at that point.
  7. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    I don't see that happening. ICE Tahoe starts at $52k, Suburban starts at $54k (for 2WD, add $3k for 4WD). For reference Silverado WT 4WD starts at $43k. I could see maybe $50-55k to start for a Tahoe, but it's not going to be $40k, especially with the Equinox reportedly starting at $35k.
  8. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    That's what I think too. They already said in their S-1 documents they were figuring on $10-15k per vehicle in that. I know there are some things that have been shown that I have no need for and wouldn't pay for (specifically thinking of the tank turn feature, or even the drift mode, or rally...
  9. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    They walked back the change and any preorder before March 1st is at the original price. I’m happy but skeptical at this point. Still keeping both my Rivian and Silverado reservation, I have lost trust in Rivian. What is it like after they have your money? What kind of support are you going to...
  10. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    I’m holding for a week or so just to be sure it’s not a knee jerk reaction but I can’t see them walking this back (even with what seems like 30-50% cancellations based on the forums) and even if they did I wouldn’t trust them. Still love the truck, just not the company.
  11. Who Cancelled Their Rivian Reservation?

    Given today’s price increase and content changes, who dropped their reservation? I am holding mine a few days to see if they come to their senses (doubt it), but I’m out if they keep the new prices. My configuration went from $82600 to $97200!!! Glad I made that Silverado reservation “just in...

    Finally added mine. Forgot I hadn't done it previously.
  13. Official List: No ADM Chevrolet Silverado EV Dealers

    You can add Whitmoyer in Mt Joy, PA. I confirmed with the sales manager but assumed it would be the case. Also with GM’s recent note to dealers I hope there aren’t too many that are trying the market adjustment BS.
  14. What Color First Edition RST Are You Ordering: Black or White?

    That makes three of us (at least) for 2H23 Max packs. If for some reason they drop the Max pack I’m out and on to the Silverado, but I fully expect them to deliver the Rivian before I would get a Silverado. The Rivian is more of what I am looking for anyway. An R1T with a midgate would be...
  15. ? Silverado EV Reservations List – Post Yours!

    Someone on a Rivian forum posted what they assumed would be the link based on the past site for the Lyric. I tried it and it let me through. It wouldn’t let me reserve the First Edition RST, but that’s ok because I didn’t want that model anyway. I’m still hoping to not have to use it at all...
  16. With a mid-gate, waterproof bed cover and the A/C on, the Silverado EV might just be an awesome camper truck!!

    Used my Avalanche that way on a few occasions or crank the heat to take the chill off before bed. At least with this one you won’t have to run the ICE. I’m hoping they make a bed tent for it like they did the Avalanche. I used that every other weekend for several summers.
  17. Chevy Teases Silverado EV Trail Boss - Info/Timing

    I like the Trail Boss, but wish it didn’t have the cheap looking black bumper. Make the upper and front of the drunk color matched like the RST, and it would be a real winner. If I do end up ordering this is probably the trim I would go for, though I don’t necessarily need the lift, so maybe a...
  18. Silverado EV with TIS Aftermarket Wheels

    I prefer more sidewall. If I end up with an RST I will be downsizing to an 18 or 20.
  19. ? Silverado EV Reservations List – Post Yours!

    Added mine. Actually got in early, 11:24am. This is a backup to my R1T reservation, at least that’s what I’m thinking but the details are making me second guess myself. I picked “WT or RST”, but in reality I’d prefer something in the middle. My R1T delivery window isn’t until the second half...
  20. Ultium battery tech: cooling?

    I think they generally use a cold plate between the cell module stacks. Not positive on this particular battery though.
