    Wow, am saving up to move to the awesome upgrade you have made for the C6. I hope to be a buyer very soon. I can honestly say it looks like the best product by far to date. I have been researching many units including those offered by Crutchfield and they don’t even compare. I have been following the channel since last November and it just keeps getting better and better. I can’t even begin to think of how much time and money you have invested to date. Obviously you have engaged the right resources to make the solution everything it needs to be and then some. I am looking forward to being a purchaser very soon. Thanks for sharing the journey on all the development of what I think is by far the best way to go! You are not blowing smoke up anyone’s a##.

    Hang in there! Development takes time, and unfortunately some consumers think products just happen easily. The only other choice is to do everything behind closed doors and worry about the marketing and advertising afterwards like so many big companies do. Generating the buzz as it happens is tough some days. Sorry to hear SEMA hasn't shown a huge ROI. Thankfully you are local and didn't have to ship a ton of things to and from the show like so many do. Are you going back to just an attendee in the future? The XLR was always a little riskier just due to the limited number of cars GM sold. How many C5s did they sell (like 225,000?) and you've sold sets for a small percentage. I would assume the C6 crowd is a similar sell rate (maybe less for the Max-DIN) and the XLR is only a small amount in comparison. The GMT platform may do better since there are a ton left on the road, but at this point I would wonder how many owners would spend $2k or so on a new headunit. Hopefully a lot. You have mentioned a lot of new products on the horizon, so hopefully they materialize eventually. You have great ideas.

    Great video, but I had one of the rare 2008s with the aluminum 6.2 and six speed in SUT form for over 5 years and finally traded it for a current gen Power Wagon because I got tired of the lack of 3rd party support and the Off Road community has relegated these things to the dinosaurs because of the IFS, unlike the timeless solid axle K5 Blazers and such that will live on forever. I'm sorry but I just dont see this "BIG comeback" you guys in the comments are talking about, as far as I can see until someone comes out with a viable SAS Kit, there is nothing to resuscitate interest or support in these. I really do like them and I wish you guys all the luck.

I’m slowly doing upgrades such as the Kryptonite steering components. Ive stuck with the 35 inch Goodrich KO2’S, as needed, and I REGRET replacing the rear air ride suspension but having replaced it twice over the years so on the 3rd failure I opted for the standard shock system because it’s my daily driver and my TOY on the weekends. Now that I’m retired (YIPPIE) and as finances permit I’ll be doing much, MUCH more regarding upgrades because it’s my collectors item… thanks for the videos!

    Great video. Given my soon to be garage situation, I'm seeing a lot of advantages to a 4 post like you've shown here.. - Not needing to anchor it, thus - being able to move / reposition it, - Can also remove it "without a trace" (no holes or modifications to slab), - Generally smaller footprint in a smaller garage - Using the stands to lift the car off the wheels seems like a good solution - Lesser slab requirements - Lower height requirements (considering ceiling height) - Just safer given its inherent stability with a post beyond each corner of the car .. the 4-poster would probably be a much better fit for my situation. Especially as my slab is suspended, which will be a major consideration.
