2018 LTZ Z71 Redline 6.2/8 speed
So far so good and I'm slowly saving to turbo it. Once the tracks open up, I'll get some stock passes then have New Era Performance put a tune on it.
Pros -
-Options - ltz plus package, sunroof, etc etc
-Comfort - any new vehicle rides so smooth and cruising around I cant hear the truck at all, its def something that jumped out to me.
-Looks - White Redline caught my eye and I had to get it.
-Crew cab - coming from a extended cab with three kids... the extra room is really nice.
-6.2 power
Cons -
-Kinda disappointed in the 36K mile/ 3 year warranty. I woulda thought the factory warranty would cover more miles.
-Key ( no push button start )
-The huge basket sized center counsel storage under the radio. what the hell? The arm rest has a similar storage. I wish they would have had a little better area layout.
-unable to put defrost,face and feet on at the same time. My 17 malibu could do this and its super nice.
-Screen not pointing to the driver. Its perfect for the kid in the middle seat in the back LOL.
-ECM and TCM - I'm reading that it takes more credits to tune it and I have to send the TCM to HP Tuners to unlock it. arg
-no rear hvac vents
My cons list is larger than pros but I really do love the truck and cant wait to see how it responds to a tune and eventually FI.

Coming from a car that had like zero storage I love the basket size center console thing 
The no pushbutton start might be my biggest irritation with mine. My 2012 hyundai had it and it was so nice not having to dedicate a hand to a key when you unlock the doors or mess with keys at all. Just hop in and go with the key in your pocket.

AC doesn't blow cold and seems like there is some flaring in the up shifts. Just hit 600 miles and going to schedule an oil change to address these two issues. I want to cut open the oil filter just to see.
Ordering up a RX can. This video was pretty awesome.

I believe Redline is only exterior. Interior is where your LT, LTZ , HC package will come into play.

I love the total paint scheme Chevy did with this. Love the white and black with red ascents.
