Schteel?

At $85,835, one has to wonder if the entire auto industry has gone mad and decided to give up competing via affordable vehicles and decided instead to extract all profit from the sale of one vehicle they can sell to the wealthiest, stupidest customer they can find.

This girl is highly underrated in the vehicle review game. The humor is genuine. Well done

"You can't have your boat and eat it too." - wisdom shared generously

My favorite vehicle reviewer in all of KZfaq land!!!❤❤❤

The fact that this thing can get 28-29mpg like a Honda accord of yesteryear

Your views are always so complete with a combination of the facts about the vehicle and then your opinion and take on the vehicle as an enthusiast. Very helpful. I've learned so much just watching your channel. Not to mention the fact that your humor is top notch in the oddest,best way 👍

In 2017, I bought a brand new Ford F350 dually 4x4 w/6.7 with plenty of options for $53,000. Still have her today with only 51,000 miles on it. I plan on keeping it forever. Zero issues.

Sarah’s road tests puts Car & Driver on the trailer!

"Pirate with a sword...?" I love your imagination and creative imagery. Great Review!!!🥰

The 3.0 Duramax is taking the 1500 world by storm! Its such a fantastic engine and it has no competition now that ford and ram half ton diesels are discontinued after proving to be boat anchors instead of engines. GM has a HUGE winner here!

The electrical output at 4,30 is a el,input for the blockheater, here in Sweden almost standard on dieselengines due to our cold winters. The lowest temp this winter : negativ 46.6 degre Celsius. Love the chanel.

Love my 2019 Colorado ZR2 diesel, and I've been consistently getting 30 mpg on the highway.

Just got a new Silverado LT Trail Boss Z71 with that engine. It's phenomenal. My combined MPG on hwy and light city driving is a hair over 28. Cruising at 55 on back country roads I'm getting 29-32

This is nuts. I have a 2016 F350 Lariat diesel that I bought in 2018 with 30k miles for $40k. This is insane pricing. I'm glad that I'll never need another 1 ton truck.

Seeing this makes me miss the Baby Duramax in the Canyon/Colorado. What far too many armchair "experts" fail to understand about diesels in off road rigs is that it isn't about towing, it's about that down low torque making crawling along a trail or cruising on the beach feel all McConaughey. Alright, alright, alright. Plus that fuel economy means you can spend more time in the boonies. Thanks for the review.

I once drove a Ram flatbed dually that had a turbocharged Caterpillar 6 cylinder under hood that had an awesome deep, powerful sound. When it was empty, the torquey acceleration was surprisingly quick. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

When I see pricing like this, I feel compelled to just keep repairing what I've got - because it just makes so much more sense. I can even modify my car while I'm repairing it to make it better than new ever was. You can replace the engine and transmission with reman stuff for less than the cost of annual lease payments.

You just simply do the best, most informative, funny vehicle reviews on the intertubes.

''Can't have your boat and eat too..'' Real smooth sailing there Sarah 😂😂

Even though I'll never be in the market for a truck (especially ones this big!), I always enjoy your reviews. 🙂

New off-road location is awesome . Sick videos! I LOVE YOU ❤

Thanks again for a insightful review... I really like the COMPARISON between older models of the same UNIT... ❤

Just one more reason I love my BRZ. The value proposition is UNREAL in this day and age. Toyobaru gave one back to the consumer, and I love them for it.

ive just found yr content and been binging it for a couple days now. keep it up!

I thought there was a gem in the tooth for a second 2:23 but just a hard working content creator with no time for stop for that type of stuff. Another great review on the insane things they include on trucks these days and make them cost so much nobody would want to use them as a truck.

Sarah is amazing every time I watch her. Brilliant analyst and great sense of humor! Thank you, Sarah

I have the 2023 Trail Boss with the baby diesel and I love it! Over 10000 miles now and the mpg is just getting better! Love your channel!

85k for a truck! It's a tough time for average people to buy affordable in the segment nowadays.

Another great review, thank you! In NC I'm seeing prices for this truck start at $67,000.... that's a lot for the base ATX4. It's not apples to apples but I can find an F150 STX 4WD for $42,000 (new)

Love watching your reviews, your style is the best ❤

Nobody bolsters like our girl!😂❤

Almost $86,000.00 U.S. , I live in Canada and we’re looking at about another 20% on top of that price. Prices are up all over the place, no matter what you buy. I like that diesel though.👍👍

My week is made after another Sarah video. I came to her channel being intrigued by a young woman rebuilding cars. I stayed for the humor and technical reviews. Love her attention to detail.

I have a 2024 LT Trail Boss with the 3.0. My best mileage on the high way was 5.8L/100 km but the average is 6.2-6.6L/100km. It tows our 33’ trailer like a dream getting17-18L/100 km. I usually keep cruise set at 100kph. My lifetime mileage over the last 9000 km is 11L/100km…. 80% city driving and that was going through a cold winter where I live in North Western Ontario. As for def, I have put approximately 15 litres. I don’t miss my 08 Silverado with the 5.3 at all. And fyi, gmc is $10,000 more than a Chevy. Mine is loaded with leather, sunroof, bose stereo and million cameras and was under $80000

Great review, Sarah. I always enjoy your "theme dressing" during your car reviews. It adds a touch of class that nobody else is doing. My favorite feature of the GMC is the tailgate. It's probably one of the best in the industry. As always, keep up the great work.

Scharah, you got it going on. Excellent review.❤ More useful information on this review than virtually all the others thus far for the AT4X diesel.

My favorite part's of the review is the brake test. The reaction is priceless.

0:48 that’s to cool down the exhaust gasses when the diesel goes into the Regen mode to burn off the soot in the SCR.

Love this Channel!!

Yes!!!! The seat bolster test!!!!!

By far the best car review i have ever seen. Been hoping for this cind of review of the sierra for some time as i really want to buy one for the business. Thank you so much, 10 out of 10 points.

Sarah love the review, you are the most beautiful car personality. Keep it up!!!

GREAT VIDEO SARAH!!!! THAT GMC IS A TOTALLY AWSOME WORK TRUCK!!!! GMC DID THEIR HOMEWORK!!!! AND IT PAID OFF!!!! I LOVE EVERYTHING!!!!

Great host, Great channel, Perfect humor to information ratio.........

Thank you for another informative and entertaining review.

Love your humor along with real knowledge. Had to subscribe! I have a similar 2021 Chevy version of this truck with the 3.0 and 10 speed. I absolutely love it!!! I get around 25mpg around town and can get over 36 mpg highway!!! I think they should promote these trucks more for the everyday driver, it's really a hidden gem in the truck world!

@sarahntuned I would bet that male outlet in the front bumper is to plug in an extension cord for the block heater. All 6.6 Duramax come with block heaters, I would imagine this does too.

GREAT VIDEO SARAH!!!! THAT IS A BADASS WORK TRUCK!!! GREAT VIDEO AND THANKS FOR SHARING!!!!

The foam finger strikes again! Sweet truck keep up the great work Sarah stay cool

Someone else who casually says “Schteel”! Love it! 🙌 As a new subscriber I’m really liking the way you review vehicles, great style, fresh and innovative while still covering all the essentials of the car or truck, with great humour and editing. Really enjoying it! 👌 The Duramax actually looks like a very practical truck IMO - very agile(Seemingly yeetable too), great power-to-weight ratio and braking capacity, nice comfortable ride in rough terrain, can cope pretty well with inclines, very practical interior with badass stereo - a really well rounded design. Shame the price is so high! Loved this video, and looking forward to future ones 🔥

"Torque-y beast do your job!" Damn I've heard that before.

Gives Me Chills

Just before Sarah launched the acceleration test i got a add for Alberta diesel day.

great review Sarah. cool truck !! 👍

Great video Sarah 😊

Very well reviewed!

You and that pointer! Too funny

The “baffle” in the exhaust is a cool cuff. It pulls cool air into the exhaust stream to limit the risk of causing fires. The exhaust braking is all done through the variable vein turbo.

Wpuld love to hesr one of these with aftermarket downpipes and a nice catback!!! Definitely my new favorite dream truck.

In NZ that would be called a maxi truck, we just don't have the wide open spaces etc. But yeah, nice truck and with a nearly 4 metric ton tow rating, well suited to a trade person as a utility tool. The new testing ground looks good, in that it looks to provide more challenges and really sort the good from the not so good. Another great review.

I really enjoyed this video!KUDOS

Dang sarah be careful out there. If theres encampments some of those people are just lookin for any reason to start something. Dont put yourself in danger for us. Stay safe

Again, Sarah‘s outfit matching ability to the vehicle is 🔥

Thanks for the review!

Great review very informative 🎉

Good review nice truck

Although aluminium on its own has inherently superior corrosion resistance to steel, galvanic action between aluminium and steel or galvanized parts can lead to severe corrosion 🙂 Cab off wow !! Interesting approach - Excellent Cat-food Hauler 😻TC ❤

Reason for running mild steel on the exhaust is the diesel exhaust temps tend to not exceed 400c unless your really working the system or in regen compared to gasoline tends to be above 600c pretty regularly and even to 700-800c on some occasions and even hotter in high performance engines

Nice review of the Dirtymax.

Great review. Killer truck!

I believe the exhaust"inlets" allow cooler air to mix with the hot exhaust during the diesel regen process. The exhaust temps on some turbo diesels can start grass fires when offroad and this lowers those temperatures to a safer level.

great view of Southern Arizona. In my opinion the 3.0 Duramax is the best engine in the GM truck lineup.

Cool video Sarah...thanks!🔥🐧🌻

Im sticking with my lil 2017 colorado z71 2.8 duramax 120k on it and still running strong.

When I worked at a GMC dealership last year I remember for almost half of the time that I worked there. There was a truck with the same engine that was a 2018 model that had the cab off of it on the lift and the whole engine taken apart it was the 3.0 liter duramax like the one in this video it sat there for 8 months while they waited for parts and pieced the thing back together. It’s absolutely crazy how hard these things can be to fix and find parts for.

LOVE your taste in metal 🤘🤘🤘

Contrator of mine bought the baby duramax new and has been in the shop for over 9 months.

Just make sure the DEF injection system can manage your local temperatures. My 4 cylinder Minimax failed 3 times. Going much colder than -15C, or 5F, and it was cross your fingers time. Injection line replaced twice, injection tank heater replaced once. Two friends were similar experiences.

The venting in the exhaust pipe is to cool the exhaust and make it less likely to be a flame thrower when the particulate filter regenerates.

How timely! Just looked at one of these locally. Very cool truck. You said it well, “militaristic.”

Hey Sarah, sorry to see the old off-road grounds lost I really like that spot especially the rally stage area. but I’m sure you picked a great replacement. Hopefully it’s not too much farther. pretty impressive mpg. Nice truck a little expensive but what are you gonna do, be safe and have a great one as always.🐧🐧🐧👍

I wouldn't exactly call them fat rolls but they are super cute! That GMC is quite impressive! An inline 6 diesel 4x4 four door for under $40 grand in today's economy?! If I were in the market for a truck today; I'd jump right on that in a heartbeat!! Thanks, Sarah! ❤

Those louvers near the end of the exhaust are to help lower exhaust temps and cool the tips during the DPF regen cycle. They do this by drawing in higher pressure cool outside air what kind of like how the Venturian a carburetor drawers in fuel

Probably already been said, but the indents near the exhaust tip are to allow cool ambient air to enter the exhaust pipe and cool the gasses (diesel exhaust is hotter than gas engines and can burn)! Great videos @sara-n-tuned

The exhaust inlets draw in cool air to cool the exhaust. So it doesn’t catch stuff on fire.

Sarah just the greatest reviews and i agree great truck just way way toooo much money your the best thanks again joey.

I have to agree, an inline six is fantastic, and the fuel economy brilliant for it's size and weight.

The LZ0 Baby Duramax is just awesome, have one in my 2024 Silverado LT Trail Boss...

Damn, thats a great engine

Great review. I wish you had mentioned it’s AdBlue or whatever GM uses. Its convenience or lack of. I’ve always been leery of the maintenance requirements of Diesels.

Love the new terrain park!

Your new playground look's mint ideal for truck's with heap's of ground clearance ..look's cool

Those cuts in exhaust are cool cuffs to help cool exhaust

Was going to watch, but I saw the $85k and decided I couldn't waste my time. Thanks, you rock.

Love my 3.0 Duramax. I routinely get 28mpg hand calculated. I've gotten up to 35mpg over a 100mi trip. Worst has been 24mpg during winter with lots of warmup. Never thought my High Country would seem like a bargain ($85k 😮)

Brand new Sarah review!

That's a crazy truck.

I haven't watched your videos in a long time. Just busy busy busy. I'm flying in to Tucson in July, to go to 2 weeks of training... and then it clicked. Sarah -n-Tuned is out there. Also, I don't remember you pronouncing your S-words, like... "SHTEEL" 😂

I wish you reviewed a truck being a truck aka loading / unloading from the bed, ease of strapping down your loads, how the truck drives with loads, how the truck does when towing x load, etc. off-roading is cool but it’s not a standard everyday use case for a truck. I’d also like to see how easy it is to park in a parking lot, parallel park, etc. Really hard to tell how these trucks would actually operate in their standard use cases. Most truck reviews are like what wwe is to wrestling.
