blss Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 Hi, finally became an owner of a V8 and and Silverado SS at that. I'm very happy with my purchase although out needs a little TLC but I'm happy with it, coming from a Honda it's a whole different world it seems, don't get me wrong I like my Honda but I'm liking this truck even more.

Downeast Johnny Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 Welcome to the site, and the SS world. What the heck did they do to the headliner? That is just plain WRONG. Change the heater element when you replace the seat cover. (You can find the seat covers on ebay). The drivers door control panel could ude a little double sided tape. Easy fix. Quote
Infernis Posted February 14, 2018 Report Posted February 14, 2018 congrats on the purchase! and welcome. Quote
FASTDIESEL Posted February 16, 2018 Report Posted February 16, 2018 Glad I'm not the newest newbie! Welcome. Quote
blss Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Posted February 17, 2018 Thanks for the warm welcome, it seems that they put suede on the headliner and visors and I'm guessing it started falling off so they just ripped it out Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Quote
blss Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Posted February 17, 2018 I'm kind of curious did this year come with the SS logo on the headrests? Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Quote

Actually the seat warmers work, the truck in general needs some work. It has a noise coming from the front diff for sure but it's kind of hard to tell if the rear one is also bad Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Quote

blss Posted February 17, 2018 Author Report Posted February 17, 2018 YesOkay because this one has regular headrests (with tv's) so I think they might have changed the SS ones for some regular ones to put the tv's IDK Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Quote

You don't want to go through the trouble and effort of replacing the cover only to have the heater element fail in another year and have to do it all over again. I have replaced the seat bottom cover and, while it's not a really tough job, It's not one I'd line up to do every month or so. Quote
JustCrusinSS Posted February 17, 2018 Report Posted February 17, 2018 Welcome to the site , and congrats on the SS. I also made the transition from a Honda ! Enjoy the new MPGs lol - Billy Quote

Hey are the interiors on this truck the same color as all the other trim levels like an LS, LT etc? Sent from my SM-G955U1 using Tapatalk Welcome to the site , and congrats on the SS.
