Must be rich… I refuse to pay the ransom. Way overpriced.

after about 40K miles it will break in and become more bearable

Wasnt a fan of the car like ride in ram...was too soft.....any payload and it became mushy

Don’t really understand that. The seats are the exact same

Had one of each of 6.2 and 5.3 both have serious engine issues. Pertaining to lifters. The 6.2 threw a piston out the engine block. My work Chevy Tahoe has a lifter(s) issues now too. You say lifter issues is not that big… but 100% of my GM vehicles with AFM, have had the issue. Overall quality of GM is GARBAGE these days. I used to be a huge fan of GM.

@@ridynh7923 Yes my Son in-law has been through the same issues with the last 2 GM trucks he's purchased, he said no GM truck next time "Ha Ha we will see" his father retired from GM assembly plant, lol

Yeah I think that would be the engine I would go with. I would probably pass on supercruise as well, but I get the appeal.

I agree, I'm a big fan of that baby Duramax too

I've owned the 4.3, 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.2, and currently the 3.0. The 3.0 is my favorite by far.

I like the LS N/A V8's better

Super nice, but aftermarket options are 1000x better in every way!

@@wantsanewvehicle not that I've ever seen!

What percentage would that be?

If keeping either the baby max or the, 6.2 long term then extended warranty (at least 100k) is suggested.

The turbo engines in full size trucks right now aren’t designed for gas mileage, they are designed for lower emissions and to make good power.

It's also an ugly truck.

@@OGtruthserum Subjective .

@@OGtruthserum highly subjective. personally the F-150 is the worst looking and I hate the weird proportions that Toyota used on the new Tundra (the 2nd gen looked 10 times better).

@@hochhaul The previous generation Silverado Z71 LTZ was my dream truck. This current version is ugly. My favorite F-150 was the 2007 version.

@@terrencejones9817 Yes

3.0 duramax has more torque and almost 2x mileage.

great rate......I got 3.9% for 60/m on 2500 HD last year after rates went way way up.....if not I wouldnt have bought it....

@kirkdunn1379 Yeah, I got lucky bought it last Dec. I still would have bought it at 3.9. Can you believe I got 16 grand for my avalanche. Could have got little more if I sold it privately. Yeah it was last yr they made them. Had 97 thousand miles on it was in great shape but after 12 yrs, things started to go on it sum. Can you imagine getting 16 grand for an electric after 12yrs. 😂 also every time I see a 2500 HD I look up to the big brother with respect. You got tough truck.

@@havefaith3213 gotta have it for work, I went thru 7 new trucks during covid cuz used was so expensive....I sold them for what I paid or less after only few months....was insane and couldn't figure out who would buy a used fir more than new.....but people were Will never happen again in my lifetime!

You're looking for a Unicorn...lol

prices haven't changed.

What year is the truck?

Interesting. I have been researching the Silverado with 3.0 Dmax and I have not seen many complaints about AC issues or a message like that.

@@troublew1 2023…

@@hochhaul his is a 5.3 V8

He did say that. lol. No turbos in the 6.2. That’s blasphemy….

It’s at 8:15 on the video

Yes. Apparently I had turbos on the brain.

Which seat cover did you go with? Thanks!

@@fit4ya1975 forget but it's like a neoprene cover and run a cushion underneath...I work construction so don't want to tear up leather Prolly just get away with seat cushion tho....bought it on Amazon

Towing?

So Tim... there's a lag with the 6.2 vs the Duramax? If so, certainly not because of the turbos. Did you mean a lag with the Duramax vs the 6.2?

Same question. I didn't understand that comment.

@@KK-td2nd I have a 2019 Silverado with the 6.2. It has no lag when I get on it. Best engine I’ve ever owned. I love it

Agree. I got rid of my 2020 Denali 2500 Duramax due to the small and hard seats. Hope they change em in the future.

I didn't have any concerns about reliability. Most GM fans will tell you the Duramax or the 6.2L V8 are the way to go right now.

Update purchased a 2024 Silverado RST with a 3.0 Duramax. Big change from the 2021 as far power and acceleration . Averaging 29 almost 30 on the highway to and from work. It’s been windy for the last couple days . Watch a lot of your videos. That’s what I decided to go ahead and do it and get the Duramax.

@@davebasey9863 enjoy! I think it’s a really remarkable powertrain.

Why?? No resale for rams

Tundra crank bearings have left the chat

id steer clear from the Tundra. Have one now and so many fit and finish issues.

Thanks for the update!

6.2 has a lot of issues. I know 3 people that have had issues. 2 of them had lifter problems. The third actually spun a main bearing. All had less than 20k miles.

Not the same oil consumption issue the 3.0L has.

@@cstgx GM just released a customer satisfaction campaign. They're replacing 6.2 engines because oversized lifter bores were causing lifter issues.

@@Pickuptrucktalk I was talking with a neighbor who recently bought a brand new 3500 series Chevy truck with a 6.6 L gas engine. It is currently back at the dealership because of high oil consumption.

What kind of issues have you had? Have a 23 tundra and thinking about going back to a Sierra for the same reasons 😂

I don't think the 6.2 has cylinder deactivation? If it does (or at least you can with the 5.3) you can easily permanently deactivate that feature.

@@wantsanewvehicleJust search 6.2 L lifter failure and you will see… too many. It’s disgusting that all these manufacturers don’t actually fix major issues in their engines and transmissions.

@@wantsanewvehicle The 6.2L does have it but I will admit it is more "robust" than the 5.3L. I'm aware of this issue because it happened to my Dad's GMC Sierra about two years ago. He only had 138,000'ish miles on it and all of the compenents went on the motor that I described (and some I forgot) and it cost him $7,000 in 2021. I cannot imagine what it costs now with Bidenflation. He did tell me in conversation he was told the 6.2L has the issue but it tends to come later do to as they said the parts being "more robust". I'm assuming it is due to the additional power and torque of the motor. What is really said is my younger brother is driving his family around in the 2001 Suburban we all grew up in that has the 5.3L V8 and has almost 400,000 miles now on it. The 2007-Present 5.3L is a ticking time bomb waiting to happen.

I've driven over 750,000 miles in GM V8's. None of the above has occurred. Even with a fleet of 50+ GM trucks. All have at least over 6000 hours of operation none of these problems have occurred and some in the fleet have been in service since 2007. A few of the Ram and Charger Hemis have wiped camshafts.

​@@Lq32332dumb comment. The failure rate is less than 3% and that's below the industry average.

Ah, they changed that from the last time I looked.

had 3 of em not a single issue......

@@kirkdunn1379 wish I could say the same

@@allroadsawesome I get it, sucks regardless of brand....and they all have problems....just luck of the draw Buddy had 2 2019-2021 F 150s new and both had tranny/eco boost problems...Ford bought 1 back and other they fixed after numerous tries I did buy a gas 3/4 ton tho for reliability/capability after those

I jammed a bread tie under the button inside my AT4. It has been bumped twice and the gate has gone down without me knowing.....not anymore. If they made that button a double push or a push and hold for 3 seconds the problem would be solved. And how about a notification on the dash when it opens??? There is one for the inner gate but not the big gate.WTF

Totally agree

I like that button better than the stupid all windows down at the same time button…that one is useless to me….i actually use the tailgate down button some times

@@Getusom That is the who farted button! I use it when it's really hot out to do a quick cool down.

@@mr.yamaha2855 yeah. I guess that’s the best reason for having it. Hahahaa

I always tap into the rear view mirror harness. You can find a ground, and a switched hot wire, and you're good to go!

Wow those dabs are really kicking in huh

I believe ford has the most quality issues at the moment.

You shouldn't be either, lol.

Life is too short to devote your life to a brand. Go out and try something new man. And at the end of the day, ford could care less about you, just like any other brand so don’t be loyal haha.

@@Cooldibs no loyalty on my end, just pointing out the current state of ford. Most vehicle brands are suffering in the quality side of things right now. However, I think ford is the leading champ. Brand loyalty is for dumbasses. Why give your money to a brand? You should want the best truck, regardless of brand.

@@avidwaterfowler7522I agree 100% I actually meant to reply to @markmiller haha. I love my 2022 f150 5.0!

Yes, GM usually has good OEM wheels but these are terrible

100% probably that and the seats and possibly the drowsy bose radio kept me from buying
