Default Not new to the site but new to the late model trucks

I just purchased a new 2011 GMC Sierra SLE. It is a SWB, standard cab, 2WD, 5.3, 6 speed auto, with a 3.42 rear gear. It came Black with 20" chrome wheels and a Line-X bed liner. I am interested in knowing the different terms, such as ECSB, TBSS, RCSB and the like. I have been driving older trucks, so it is time to evolve to the new styles.

Thanks for the info.

One cannot leave things alone---SO----the lowering kit is in the works, as well as a billet grille and Street Scene mirrors.
