What certainly looks like a button, does not push in or out and the little rectangle that usually says tow/haul is blank, the wire packet is in the glovebox though which looks to be for the trailer brake like my 02 Silverado had. I'm beginning to think this thing doesn't have the tow package even though it has a factory receiver hitch, doing online searches it seems the referenced RPO Z82 is absent.View attachment 241970 View attachment 241971

It would be interesting to know if any of the other PPV's have an RPO for Z82 or if it is automatically rolled into the PPV package. My LS came equipped for heavy towing, I have two RPO codes for towing ~ Z82 and VR4. Our trucks share the same springs and while your receiver sticker is different , they have the same max tongue and trailering numbers..

Yes, picked it up at Chicago Motors Inc., they had good looking inventory, good write up about the vehicle, the car fax, 50+ photos and good reviews. From the initial emails, to the phone calls and texts they seemed easy to deal with, treated me fair and I'm happy with it.

One thing I did notice is the horn doesn't honk when locking it up using the key fob, on my 02 Silverado the horn honks and the security light flashes on dash, so that's something I have to look into. Might just be something in "stealth" mode..lol

Sorry if his was already answered, but our PPVs come in stealth mode. No lights or horn when locking (which is great coming home late from the bars).

When I went in for my RPO for the remote start, the tech asked me if I wanted to remove stealth mode for something like $200. It's a code they have to buy from GM. I passed on it, but might go back and get done when I go to sell.

Anyway, If you get the remote start, some of the lights do come on when you use the remote start function. I ended up with that giant 2-way remote start from GM, which shows the doors are locked.

You may have a performance shopping disorder - time for rehab.
