Hahaha!! No, that wouldn't freak me out at all on a brand new truck

Anyways 3000 miles so far, no problems at all. Best running stock truck I've had yet.

Guess I spoke too soon My truck isn't recognizing that it is full of DEF and is limited to 55 mph. I made it in to the dealer last night with my trailer on and they couldn't get it to reset. I limped it home last night to unload and it's still doing the same thing this morning. I'm headed to the dealer in 20 minutes

Yeah that sucks. I guess GM is still doing R&D on the consumers.

Left it at the dealer and haven't heard a word yet. Sad part is, yesterday right before all this happened I was thinking to myself how awesome the new truck is. I was pulling 11k over the mountain (8500 ft pass) and it was running great. I think it's awesome to have a 100% stock truck with this kind of power and mileage, I just hope they get this bug fixed quick.

They think they "might" have a fix for it. Still at the dealer for now.
