Props to gm for keeping it real with the 6.2.
6.2 with the pulsar lt, omg fastest naturally aspirated truck
Gotta love the active exhaust as well, the 6.2 V8 sounds really good, I'm glad GM finally gave this engine the exhaust it deserves, this exhaust is perfect for the ZR2 and AT4 and the other off-road focused trims.
@@ZoomZoom356 I went a little crazier with muffler and resonator delete lol. It sounds awesome too me I have received many compliments from manly men of course lol
@@thorpower1015how’s the highway drone?
@@Spartan168 not bad and not really even on the highway, it's not too loud and sounds coming out are music too my ears.
Wow, what a great system the Super Cruise is!
That’s a high tech truck with a powerful engine and a lot of room!
This is what i love about your channel. You review literally all sorts of cars at all sorts of price ranges to their fullest extent. One day its a fully specced huracan STO or tecinica, the next day a silverado, the day after that a z06 and the day after that a civic type r. Keep it up man you make amazing content. Same thing with tedward you two are the best reviewers on youtube.
Wouldn’t you if companies loaned you vehicles to record ?
These trucks are not only scandalously priced but have become luxurious vehicles that most likely won't be used for it's intended purpose. So many of these trucks driving around with few passengers, cargo or towing anything. Thus becoming more status symbols then utilitarian vehicles. At $60-$80k you gotta be wealthy to afford these trucks or have your priorities mixed up. Like the truck and review non the less ✌🏽❤️
Sounds like somebody missed out when they were still under 50k 😂
@@justinjuarez1852 touche man, touche 😂
Honestly you don’t even need to be rich to have a vehicle like this, and that’s the case with many other expensive cars I feel like, you would just have to put a good chunk of your cash into it
@@pelotonboys66 I don't know how people afford the monthly payments it's insane.
Still cheaper than any BMW out there and you can work, tow, shop and camp out of a truck. Plus, 6.2L V8.
That 6.2L V8 is a beast! Might have to get one of those in my next truck!
Pickups have become status symbols.
Status of what though? It’s a tool.
For people that have to compensate women because of the size of their little buddy. And feel embarrased it won't get up, have to compensate some way.
$66k isn’t actually that bad. My 1997 F-150 Lariat was ~55k adjusted for inflation. This is nicer and can do a lot more! 80+k is when things start to get a little stupid…like I’m not paying that for a truck lol. 66k is still high and pushing it, but it’s not out of the realm of thought for me and many others.
Some poeple actually use them for what they were intended to.A rare case but hey lol.@@Feluzion
You have to be extremely ignorant with your money to buy a pickup as a status symbol 💀
I have one very similar, just has the 5.3, i couldnt find the 6.2 at the time i needed it and i have the z71 package instead of the 22 inch wheels, same interior. Had it about 6 months now almost 30k miles. Only issues are a bad parking sensor module and the infotaintment is glitchy sometimes, but not bad enough to be much an issue. Great truck overall, and i have the multiflex tailgate which has become one of my favorite things.
I am so glad that I asked for a large garage before they started building my house, looks like I'm gonna be buying me a Silverado too.
Thanks for the review topher!
Best 24 highcountry review period!
Love my 24 High Country, exactly the same as the one you're driving except in White. The responsiveness is amazing. The 6.2 L is the way to go with this truck, more than enough power to slam you into your seat if (when) you punch the gas. Love the auto drive, it is amazing. When from Philly to NYC in heavy traffic over the weekend, no issues with it at all. Quiet possibily the best truck I've owned in years. Beat part, my wife loves druving it too!
Thetopher! Thanks-you made professional . have a great day! 😯
Impressive. I own the 2014 High Country model, which is still a powerful beauty. These models are a dream to drive. I appreciate your review. The first-person test drive made me feel like I was driving, too😂
Super Cruise is awesome though. Shocked to see GM out of all companies get it so good.
When GM wants to try they always knock it out of the ballpark. Look at the Escalade V!
@@yamahaguy1732 nah its a shit company facing many lawsuits because their products are shit aswell. transmission in my 17 camaro started causing trouble at 50k miles. manufacturing defect - had to rebuild it or buy a new one. didn't want to deal with it so i sold the car and bought a mustang. 120k miles and the trans shifts as good as new. gm is a joke.
GM can pump out good stuff if they want to
The higher trims - absolutely. The tech is cool and if you can afford it, more luxury features is a bonus. But most people don't use their pick-ups for actual truck things.
GM is either a really good hit or a really bad miss. No in-between IMO.
I own this same truck but with the Duramax, Super cruise was the main selling point and has been great. We just took it on a 2000 mile road trip and it did great. GM really hit it out of the park with the Duramax 10speed combo.
What sort of gas mileage did you average on the trip?
@chevyfan029
Upper 20s broke 30s on backroads going 65.
What job do you have to be able to afford this?
@isolatefn3914
Lol, it's my situation that helps me more than just my job. We bought our house with low interest and the market being low. Also, have a company vehicle so I can put more into our personal vehicle since we only need the one.
@@bryce850 Damn, good job. Im just starting my adult life and the house prices are crazy, even around my area which is in rural NC. A truck like that is a dream though, just not sure what career path would allow me to afford a truck like that and a decent house.
This with the DuraMax diesel would be perfect!
im a ford guy and man the gm half tons are just solid man
Perfect for idling in the Culvers drive thru.
Chevy finally gave us what we wanted with the interior styling. I am a die hard Ford guy but this truck is the perfect spec for a half ton. Will defiantly be my next truck.
You and me both, Chevys been picking up their stuff while Ford is sadly going down the tubes.
Gosh, I wish i could drive these trucks but i’m too short 😅
Happy thanksgiving to you and your family 😊
The sound alone is amazing.
Second time watching this.....that super cruise 🔥🔥🔥
Impressed with the Super Cruise
TheTopher, Which system do you like better BlueCruise or Super Cruise? Also, how does its ride compare to the F-150?
Insane!! Great job... Greetings from Brazil 🙋🏻♂🇧🇷
This is a fully loaded top trim Chevrolet Silverado High Country the equivalent to a GMC Denali with the level of technology and luxury of a Mercedes yet people are complaining about the price? Smh 🤦🏽♂️
This does not compare to a Mercedes in any way lol. It’s a nice truck though for sure.
@@clarencepreston573 this definitely rivals the driver assistance technology that you’ll find in a Mercedes GLS. The only thing that’s missing here is some sort of augmented reality navigation. But the Silverado has Google services built in and the navigation can be activated with a voice command. Luxury brands like Infiniti, Acura, Lexus, and Lincoln aren’t even offering Google maps or services built-in. Certainly luxury vehicle levels of tech right here.
sounds gorgeous.
Absolutely excellent review
Wow! I like the sounds of the engine. This is a muscle car engine. I do drive the Jeep Grand Cherokee; it has HEMI V8 underneath my hood but sounds like that too.
Haha, you HAD to look over to get a visual on the X5 driver, lol. Keep up the good work neighbor.
Man I wish my 17' High Country had the 10 speed and that center console shifter. That's the one thing i miss from my 12' Ram. I have the 6.2L as well and I love it but the 8 spd I have is clunky as all hell. However at the new prices ill never own one though. Mine was at the high end of what id buy and now they are nearly 2x as much.
Definitely need this for my target and sams club runs.
I just picked up a 2024 HC with SC, I drive a lot of miles, what a game changer
The 6.2 is a good motor!
I’ve never been a fan of Chevy trucks but this boy is niceeeeee
Love the camera angle. Really makes you feel like you're driving. Doing some research on which 1500 to buy. But I have to say that until 99 percent of the cars on the road have a self driving ability I personally don't need/want it. Honestly to me it's more of a useless novelty at the moment. I personally would love to see a grid type of system for interstate driving eventually. With cars automatically spaced a good distance, you could easily go 90 mph or higher. Of course you'd have to address semis and their speed governors.
Damn that’s a beauty
Got mine today replace my silverado 2019(high country), loved the previous, will love this one too.
If I had a pickup truck, this would be it.
What camera do you use? Thanks a lot for a great video!
I literally love it
Do the seats fold flat into beds? The f150 max recline seats are dope and a surprising amount of vehicles have features like that. My 2003 pathfinder does you gotta take the headrests off but ya the seats turn into beds its really cool
I get thee on a horse 🐎 rising trot when yer walking thee camera around that very nice pickup 👌.
I wish they offered this system in their HD trucks. I would buy one tomorrow.
Dang that is impressive!!
L mode on the shifter is for limiting the top gear. Primarily for towing. It's not meant to duplicate a manual mode with the paddles.
Awesome video
Gotta give him credit for trying to minimize the dirt from that dirt road on those floor mats 28:11
Damn that super cruise is badass. If I was rich I’d cop one
Very impressive. Looking to purchase a new truck. Heading to the Chevy dealer this afternoon. Q. What POV camera did you use to create your video? Thanks… 👍🏼
Convert the bed to a sleeper, then go cruising around the whole US, OMG this my top dream as a non-US citizen.
Sitring at 6.5, i get more comfortable in truck and my bed is a over size trunk. Love it why would I want a luxury car.Glad there giving you the luxury options in a truck.I would never camp, haul or fish or tow in a dam BMW or Mercedes.Guys it's a vehicle and your money buy what you like.No different then a 50k Harley. Hard as we all work in Americans enjoy yourself and let others do the same.
Now I want to be in debt with this Chevy
How does Super Cruise compare to Kia/Hyundai Highway Drive Assist 2 on latest Telluride/Palisade?
I want one of these trucks as my next vehicle
What a car man.
The average household income in America could not even dream of affording a truck like this.
good job!!
Incredible how far trucks have come lately!
If you need a truck as a luxury car you don't need a truck.
you or the right man to show that truck off you have done everything that i am doing🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
sweet ride
Changing the gear place is the best so far
Have they resolved the lifter failure issue on these? Also not a fan of stop/start feature. Otherwise a great truck.
you can buy a start/stop delete plug
I grew up in the 80’s and 90’s when it was nuts to put leather interior in a truck. Now these things are luxury cars. Does anyone actually use trucks for work anymore or just status symbols to show their neighbors how much money they have?
Exactly. They're the new Cadillacs. Oversized, luxury vehicles that are impractical for most people's actual lives, but used to flex.
Tons of people work these new trucks and they do it way better then old trucks did. There’s work truck trim levels for a reason so if you don’t want to be comfortable then buy the base models.
How is this a status symbol? It’s like $70k, you make it sound like it’s 200k
@@jackz4149 My work truck cost me $4,000 and it hauls a 14k lb 5th wheel twice a week, 70k is pretty insane for a work vehicle considering that's were Vettes start.
So yeah, most of them are status symbols. F150 plats go a little north of 100k, that's now into Porsche 911 territory that's insane.
@@bobjackson4287 F150 platinum is around $79-$80k… and no Porsche 911 requires a lot of options to be drivable, so you’re looking at $160k at least
I have 22 LTZ that has everything this HC has except power running boards and super cruise and the HC badging. I have the 5.3L V8. I opted for the multifunction tailgate. I had a 2019 HC with the 6.2L which I can say is nice but is a fuel hog. I do have adaptive CC which is nice. I’m a little leary of the super cruise. Btw, You can change the gauge cluster look in the center menu. Also, if you don’t subscribe to a Onstar data plan, you cannot use the built in Google maps. I use my Google maps thru my iPhone. I also added a Pedal Commander, which wakes up the 5.3 and makes it feel as quick as the 6.2. Otherwise, nice truck.
On a side note, there are NO 12V outlets anywhere in or on the truck, just USB ports. I wish GM would bring them back. Otherwise, if you want a 12V outlet, you can get a USB to 12V adapter.
Just amazing....
Very nice car
I've only had bad times with GM reliability. Leasing sure! But It's just hard to justify actually buying any GM product. Shame, cause damn this is a beautiful truck!!
Your info states 66k? I have the 2024 HC 5.3 without super cruise or Hud, and no moonroof and MSRP is 69k.
Did I miss something?
I'm so confused with Super Cruise, I mean that is Awesome how it works and all, but my confused part is if you take your eyes off the road it shuts-off, that's when I would want it the most!?
I hope 2025 suburban looks like this
How long can you look away before super cruise is cancelled?
lovely car! i personally have a gripe against GM for removing carplay in their future vehicles but after seeing that infotainment system i won’t be too bothered by it - although it’s a key feature i require in a vehicle.
just one thing i noticed though … the super cruise automatically turning off when i’m not looking forward seems dangerous if it doesn’t alert me beforehand. did it alert you that it was turning off or did it just shut off automatically without warning? i feel like there’s no point in an “autopilot” if you can’t look away or do other tasks.
FWIW, GM is only removing Carplay in its future EVs. Combustion vehicles will continue to have it. I do hope they revert on the EV decision though
@@ankurpandya3912one of the main reasons people buy new cars is to get carplay. I bet as soon as they see they’re losing sales because of it they’ll revert
i believe it will vibrate your seat and beep at you, and if you fail to respond it will put on the hazards and pull over
@@ankurpandya3912 good to know
Nah we need CarPlay
Imagine once it’s fully self driving. I’ll be using this truck after a night at the bar lol.
Just bought one.Thoes of you worried about the eng. For extra thousand got 7 yr bumper to bumper, and the dealer owner has lifetime engine warrantees. Also got 5 thousand off sticker 1.9 for 3 yrs. 16,000 for my almost mint 13 avalanche. No way could I not do this. I'm far from rich. Also Struggling to justify a price like this for yrs. All I menchen is great. But when I saw Glacier blue metallic dual mode exhaust.
meg ride and super cruise, my heart skipped a beat. After all these yrs in love again. 😂
This is so good! I might just wait until 2025 to buy the new HD ZR2. Maybe GM will add this feature next year to the other models. IMO, this is 100% worth the money.
Amazing ❤❤❤
What are those flashing LEDs on the steering wheel? I am assuming it is infrared and you don't see it in person but the camera can pick it up. That does not seem like a good idea for the retinas in our eyes because our retinas can still get damaged by infrared.
They detect where you are looking for the Supercruise.
Nice Silverado.
Love that super cruise doesn’t scream at you for not having your hands on the wheel (unlike Tesla).
Love the interior for the most part, screens are a love/hate thing for me. Absolutely hate the shifter but besides that its a sharp truck. Also hate the afm/dfm or whatever their calling it for the gen, in the middle of a dod delete on my 2017 right now.
Does the vehicle come with automatic stabilization?
Do all trims of 2024 come with this exhaust??
i wonder how supercruise works with towing, especially closer to the max weight
American truck is Amazing
Why does the hood stick out further than the bumper?
GM did a great job with the interior redesign. Too bad they didn't get the SUVs completed for the 2024 models.
Why does a 2024 have an antenna in this day and age? SC is amazing technology!!! $77K is insane!
Did they replace the engine like their doing with the 2023's
Cool truck, and review! What worries me is the aging problem with super cruise, like when the system is 10-15 years old would be a. Nightmare to fix when it goes wrong. Also all these digital displays won’t last and what happens in 10-15 years as the 2nd or 3rd owner will these things run at that time?
What am impressed the most is the greenery what state and city ? its beautiful there
Its a awesome Truck my dream with a Titamium 22f 6ins caravan around Australia, magic
I like the "simplicity" of the interior, lots of physical controls and not bombarded by screens, but still with all the modern stuff n things that wed expect and the supercruise is super cool, and a great exterior design as well. Also with the 6.2 for 2024 im liking this. Flooring it on the highway made me smile lmao. They did really good with it
i wonder if you can at least peak at your phone from time to time without the super cruise cancelling
I need it to drive when I'm NOT looking not just throw up it's hands and say "I quit!"
Why can't I find the super cruise on a Silverado 1500 or 2500?
I'm sold.
Is a flex fuel also? thanks
Does super cruise follow a GPS route?
