Just bought a 2024 2500hd Duramax. Yes there was so many options that just made me feel like it wouldn’t be a work truck.
Went with basic floors, cloth interior and no fancy tailgate. I am beyond happy with my decision.
Right on, congrats....that new l5p gen 2 is sweet!
I just picked up my 2024 2500HD LTZ Diesel and I absolutely love it
Thank you for finally doing a gas engine HD custom the majority of RUclipsrs are always constantly promoting diesel so thanks again great content 👍👍👍
I just purchased a 2024 Silverado 2500HD work truck standard bed and black powder coated rims and I love it.
got the same exact one myself, absolutely love it.
have been binge watching your vids
awesome,, thanks
Thanks I appreciate you being here. The chevy is the top dog for 23 and 24, glad your loving yours.
I have a very similarly equipped 22 LT in white, but LOVE that red. Great review. Enjoyed it.
I really like Big Red thanks for the video.
Ty for sharing, great review, appreciate the info / Window Sticker close up and I love having that remote start on the keyfob 😋
Absolutely, thanks for watching and being part of the channel.
Congratulations beautiful truck I got the costume never had oil issues I got almost 18000 on my and I love it
Been watching your videos on the 6.6 over last couple months. Very to the point, nice comparisons. We upgraded our camper from roughly 6800 lbs to now 9000 lbs, which was just over max tow with our 1500 Custom. Helped convinced us to pull the trigger just today on a 2024 Silverado LT Red 2500 HD. Was leaning towards the Custom, but got the LT at $5000 off MSRP, couldn't pass it up.
Thanks I appreciate the feedback. Congrats on the new rig! The LT is a great trim because you get the new interior and several more creature comforts. And 5k off, absolute win! Congrats and drive safe out there.
Really good looking truck.
Very great video tour! I always thought the Customs toned the look of the new Silverado HDs way better and it sure does with the 2024, I’m considering buying one for myself albeit in a DCLB version that’s almost identical to your setup. I prefer simplicity and really don’t even need the newer bigger touchscreen since that’s more stuff to break and I like the more analog approach on the dash vs digital. This trim definitely has the looks to match it’s price best of both worlds IMHO.
Just got my new truck yesterday. I have owned several gas engine 3/4 ton trucks as well as diesels. I traded my 2022 Duramax 3500HD for the 2024 GAS 6.6 3500HD. I haven't hooked this truck up to our fifth wheel yet but I have pulled it with the duramax as well as a previous 2021 6.6 gas 6-speed. Our trailer weighs right at 12,000lbs and even the old 6-speed was good enough but I believe the 10-speed with really wake it up. Congrats on the new truck!
Congrats to You too, let me know how you enjoy it. We are towing this next weekend, for a trial run with both the 6.6 and 7.3 Gas.
@@automotiveinquiries9673 will do. I may be helping a friend pick up a travel trailer this week. If not, we have a trip to Disney planned next month and will be pulling out fifth wheel
Oh heck yeah BROTHER. Nice truck
Im still happy with my 2004 8.1 silverado 3500
Great information thank you
Absolutely 💯, thanks for being part of the channel
I just got mine same color and I love it
Congrats, that's awesome....just did some towing videos. It did awesome!
I want to give you kudos for paying $60 grand for a pickup that you will actually use for what it was designed to do. There is an area a few miles out of were we live that is full of $60 grand new 1500 pickups that are parked in front of run down single wide trailers. There financing them for ten years and still wind up with $1000 dollar monthly payments because of bad credit. Not only are they paying 60 grand for trucks that should be high 30s to low 40s depending on trim but they are paying more for their truck than there home! Just to be cool! Lol! Its amazing that for almost the same price your getting so much more in your truck. Your getting a 2500 plus all the creature comforts and you actually have a need for one. Around here you will find 4 year old trucks with zero scratches or any sign of wear in the beds. Youll also find a plethora of 4x4s that have never even been off road there entire life. I doubt they ever even engaged the transfer case! Lol! Its just silly! I say this because of people like ive mentioned the manufacturers have taken notice and have been taking advantage of it. We now have people who will actually almost go into bankruptcy just to own a pickup they cant afford just so they can own a pickup. The inflated prices reflect this! Because of this people who actually need and use a pickup are forced to pay the ridiculous inflated prices!
This is too relatable to what I see around where I live too. I used to have a very well taken care of 97 Chevy, loved that truck. Very good year for paint though, held up great to me off-roading. I used it for firewood and different things over the years, held up well. When I went to sell it, the guy looked at the bed and asked what it got the scratches from. Looked a lot different from the body as far as any abuse. I told him it was because I used it like a truck. He paused, looked at me, and then chuckled and said, “well that makes sense”. He realized he actually asked a pretty funny question when he thought about it.
8:09 the rear window defrogger removes frogs from vehicle before departure. lol! 🙂
ribbit ribbit
I bought a rough country storage bin that goes under the backseat. Very handy and not very expensive either.
Beautiful truck! I am about to order the same truck but in black. The one I am buying doesn't have the multiflex tailgate, but it does have everything else plus the upfitter switches for accessories and the snow plow/camper prep package. I am building an overland/camping rig. I made my list of needed options and only three trucks exist in the country with everything I want. I noticed your ring. I have 5 years and 8 months to go for retirement.
The best new front end in my opinion for the HDs.
I’m sure the hood can be made usable aftermarket (if interested).
I’m going for gas next year depending on assets/ liability ratio. Although a good price for what it is. It’s still a lot of money lol
Love the truck
Thanks
Congrats!
Thanks
I have a 2006 2500 Duramax work truck edition with cruise control only and rubber floors I love it and the fact it does not have any options to break.
Nice truck.. cool options..
Thanks
I have been buying Chevrolet 2500s HD for 30 years all were gass except for two of them and I had like every one of them until this present time. But when comes to the diesel I honestly think all of the big are very good trucks.. nobody is perfect
Are the factory 5th wheel prep holes the same across Chevy and ford?
I absolutely love my custom
Heck yeah!
Man truck!
Sick Truck ! Honestly i like the front of that Truck
Great looking truck! Love the detailed review of the window sticker. I'm really looking hard at the 24 Chevy HD. I agree they seem to be giving their customers more for the money.
Absolutely 💯 I'll have some more cool stuff tomorrow.
I have to agree. I’m a big Ford guy but it really does appear Chevy is giving more options for your money. Something to consider down the road. Really enjoyed the video.
Great looking truck, good video and thanks for going over the vehicle sticker. That’s cool all of the additional options you can get on a 24 Custom like the multi flex tailgate. I’m seriously considering jumping ship to a 24 2500 LT in this color with the Z71 Sport package. I’m in the Denver area as well and I’m looking for a good Chevy dealer to place an order. Have any suggestions by chance??
Absolutely, I know a guy named Austin Garcia at foundation who is my guy there. Plus they do the warranty for life. I appreciate you watching and if you end up ordering, let us know. Love to hear how it goes. We are doing some pulling this weekend with it, so be Able to say how it is with the gasser. I did am extensive video on the 24 l5p if you are looking diesel, it's a game changer what they did with that in regards to how it's going to handle emissions and efficiency . This truck I did get at autonation chevrolet in westminster, that was because they discounted it 5k, but if I was ordering, I'd go with foundation to get that warranty.
I feel what Chevy did with the Custom trim is very much like Ram a,d the Express trim on the Gen 4 1500s. They give you a great looking truck on the outside a more working truck on the inside with some nice upgrades. I’m curious to see how the 2500 with 6.6 gasser performs. I am looking for a replacement to my 2017 Ram 1500, and I am leaning towards a gas 3/4 ton over a diesel.
Nice
I always wonder if the heated seats are in every seat and they just short you the switch.
A.k.a Clifford. 😆😆 nice chevy 2500.
Where did you get the Door Sill scuff protectors again ?
Thanks for content. Have a question. Can you get or does your truck have power folding mirrors
It does have power folding, with spotter lights, auto dimming, with blinds pot...you do have to manually extend them, but personally I never do. They have the biggest surface area in the segment.
If at all possible could you do a video showing the 0-60 of the gas with the updated transmission!
Nicely equipped but I would add steering wheel radio controls and auxiliary switches. I want a loaded 24 custom gas like this.
I really like the analog-look gauge package on this Custom as opposed to the new fancy hard to read digital cluster on the higher models.
Question: Are the mirrors power folding?
Yes. Just got mine this week...
Did they paint the frame yet or they still using that oil over raw metal?
less tech is exactly right. got rid of my ram limited for a 2022 chevy LT HD because of the amount of electrical problems with the ram. less is more!
Love your content. Love that you are expanding to different brands and vehicles. But that truck has a face only a mother could love.
Lol....I know it does have a face like that.....thanks for being here and watching.
I can’t wait to see how the Chevy competes in towing against the ford. They are the two biggest contenders on the market. It’s also gonna be cool to see how chevys small block competes against ford new big block. Keep up the great work
7.3 is still considered a small block. I do understand the sentiment 😊
Godzilla is a small block 🤣
7.3 is a big block based on bore spacing
6,6 is a smallblock ???
@@bustersmith5569 yes.
I have been watching your videos a lot as I have been in the market to research a new truck for my lawn mowing business. I actually ordered a new 24 2500 Gasser from Chevy which will be here any day now in November. Had a question for you. Can you put 85 octane in this truck or do you have to put '87 in it? I know obviously not E-85 with a crap ton of ethanol gas but wondered about if regular 85 with no more than 10% ethanol would work?
I did try 85 in the truck, so you technically could. I didn't notice much if any difference from 87. Even 91 didn't change much. You are correct, no E85, but ethanol free or 85 and up you are OK. Thanks for watching
I am interested in how this rides unloaded. I realise it's a HD truck, We will be towing 8 or 9k pounds with a tongue weight of 300 to 400 lbs one direction moving from California to Michigan, then back to California empty for another load. The older 3/4 tons rode terrible empty. About the looks of the newer Chevrolet trucks, They are growing on me. Maybe some of us need to look in a mirror before we criiticize the looks of the truck. I just joined your channel. Loving it.
Thanks for joining, I agree I've always wanted my car to turn heads, the chevy does that and after looking at the 23 ford's, I like the 22s better, so this truck to me looks even better than the 23 chevy and I liked the one. So far, this truck is quieter than the ford inside and this is a more base truck. Ride is also really nice, but hit a large enough run in the road and it will remind you it's a truck. I have two other videos where I brought two different kind of drivers in to check these out my ford and this kne and both said the chevy rode better, I agree and this is on 20s with z71 and unloaded. I feel it will get even smoother when loaded. This truck really is a dream to drive. So quiet inside that you can hear a whisper.
On a 8000 # trailer, you should have 800-1200 # tongue weight (by guidelines).
It’s surprising how many options that truck had added but are still missing compared to my High Country.
There's is a 30,000 dollar difference you know
Yaa. I will stick with my high country also. What’s an extra 30k at the cost of big red?
I do agree. Payments are too close together these days. May as well go all out
Do you mind saying how much of a discount they gave?
Enjoyed all your stuff in the 6.6 gasser. I have a didrymax and tow a 13k lb 37 foot 5th wheel. We will travel the county about 7,000 miles a year. Would you recommend gas?
Thanks, I appreciate that. I think the 6.6 gas would do great with thay size of 5er. In the battle of the plains it did great with 17k 40 foot 5er. These new diesels just aren't returning the value that they uses to and the gas trucks are really great now. And by value I mean mpgs arent what they used to be and fuel.here is a buck more for diesel. I didn't have any issues getting gas vs. diesel at fuel stops, and now thay the gas has the allison, it was really good at grade braking. No more regens, no def and idle it without concern of plugging up the dpf, I would absolutely lean towards gas. I'll you were over 18k on the trailer, plus gear, then diesel may be the better option
Great review. Very informative. Any idea on fuel mileage
Thanks, i appreciate you watching. So far about 12.9, but I'm only 150 miles in. I'm switching to ethanol free or clear gas which here in co is equal to premium octane.....so I do believe it will get better
I’m very interested in this subject. I’m getting 22-24 mpg at 77-79 mph in my 2020 GMC Denali with the Duramax 6.6 engine and the 10 speed Allison transmission. I may be selling my fifth wheel so I may go back to a Gasser.
nice truck brother! i just bought a '24 2500 lt silverado with buckets and a counsel gas and a 10 speed. just got rid of a ford and i have to say chevrolet has a much nicer interior over ford, i personally thing they ride better and handle better too. i got the new dash setup in my truck and love it. hands down the camera system is the cats ass, picture is extremely clear especially with the big screen they put in it. msrp on my truck was about 64,500$ and i couldn't be happier. the only 2 things i wanted but couldn't get was the multi pro/flex tailgate and the glacier blue metallic paint unless i stepped up to the diesel option based on what they had on the lot available. sofar my best mpg highway was 15.8 no trailer, i seem to average about 13-14 highway. please keep us informed on mpgs towing and not towing im just curious.
Just wanted to say I really appreciate the content you put out man. Real life use, info and comparisons. While it may be cool watching others pull a 16,000 lb cattle trailer up the ike gauntlet at 11,000 ft altitude, it doesnt help me understand how a truck will work in the real world.
Really lookin forward to your upcoming towing comparison of new 6.6 GM vs the 7.3 General. Interested to see if the towing experience is only marginally different and expected due to the different engine sizes or if there really is a huge leap going from one to the other. Curious if the outcome is “choose only 7.3 if going with gas or just go diesel” or if its more of “choose any flavor (Ford, GM, Ram) of gasser you like, or diesel” as the gassers all pull relatively the same. Thanks again!
Thanks for the feedback, I agree, I want to give people real world info that may help them make a decision and potentially save money. I will definitely have that I formation posted Saturday afternoon.
Last year i was in the market for a 2500/3500 duramax, but wasnt willing to pay the MSRP+ 5-10K dealer markups. Ended up getting lucky and got a great deal on a 2500 LTZ 6.6 gasser with the 6 spd. I figured it was a good placeholder for a while and Id use the equity on it to get a duramax when the market settled down… but I have to say, the gasser has been a pleasant surprise. Great daily driver, and pulls our 34 ft trailer (8-9K lbs) just fine through the hills and mountains of the pacific northwest. Was trying to get a duramax in case we upgraded to larger trailer in the future, but man this gasser has been impressive for our current setup. Real curious to see what you think of it paired with the new 10spd compared to the 7.3.
@ShaneMosier-fb8dq so far as daily driving its a game changer over the 6spd. Smooth and always right on the right throttle band. Plus the allison has always been know to grade shift brake. By no means saying anything bad about the 6spd, but I'm blown away how this is daily driving as my zilla. This weekend will be fun towing and seeing. Where we are doing this several steep grades.
I Miss The Chevrolet Name Across The Front Grill.
All I know is that just as fast as they come in at the dealership I'm telling you they don't last. They are very good trucks..I wish I had one..we have them the job they ride better than Ford and the Rams. And perform very well.
Awesome truck. You got the best color too but I’m biased lol. I’m just going to list my thoughts to make it easier.
1) the carry over interior is not nearly as bad as people on the internet let on. It’s very easy to use. And as a bonus you got 12 volt outlets. The refresh does not.
2) I’m pretty sure you got wireless Apple car play. I’ve read that on the window stickers of other Customs and it says it in the standard equipment part of the sticker. That is awesome too because before you had to get the Convenience 2 package on an LT to get it.
3) your GVWR and GCWR is higher than on my 2022. They increased the GVWR by 200 pounds and it looks like the GCWR by 2000 pounds. That was previously limited by the 6L90 6 speed to 24,000 GCWR. And because of that your towing capacity is up too which is nice. Mine is 14,500 bumper pull and 16,620 fifth wheel. With yours being 18,400 fifth wheel now that’s only 100 pounds less than a standard 2500 diesel. That’s crazy but goes to show GMs confidence in the 6.6 gas and the 10 speed. Because like I said, 2020-2023 the 6 speed was the limiting factor for the GCWR being capped at 24,000, regardless of 2500 or 3500 truck.
4) I also noticed your payload is a little lower than my 2022 LT. Mine is 3517. I would bet a lot of that has to do with the Allison. I’m sure it’s heavier but it would appear there’s some more weight somewhere else. Maybe in the added safety tech because my truck does not have forward collision alert or blind zone monitoring.
I’m really looking forward to seeing videos of this. I just know the 10 speed is going to make all the difference in towing a steep grade. Watching your videos is going to make me want to trade because you got the color I’d definitely get. And with the added available options on the Custom I would not be opposed to one. I’d miss the heated seats, fog lights and sliding window my truck has but your truck has everything else and a few things I don’t.
Thanks, i agree. Absolutely, I'm stoked for this next weekend. In just a few days I love what chevy/gmc has done, and im very happy with this truck. Great points.
@@automotiveinquiries9673 I’ll be watching. I don’t live in the Rockies but all of my roads I travel are like roller coasters here in East Kentucky where I live and then I travel to race through Southwest Virginia into East Tennessee. So I’ve got the grades to contend with just not the elevation. The bulk of my trip stays around 2000’ elevation.
I’m excited to see some real world testing with this 10 speed. I know what the 6 speed does and I know based off the gearing of the 10 it’s going to be a big improvement.
They have a 120v outlet. I didn't think they had one either but it's in the center console for some strange reason.
@@MansaX yeah the 120 volt is in the console. But I meant the 12 volt outlet. Like the old cigarette lighter outlets. The refresh trucks do not have those.
@@matthewanderson9912 oh. Is that in the 20+ trucks? I never noticed that
My brother just bought the same exact truck to the tee. Lol
Nice, I hope he loves it!
Wish the custom came with the upgraded, bigger touch screen. Thats the one thing i want from the higher packages. I've been looking at the 2500 high country or the GMC 2500 at4 for that reason. Granted those start at around 70k minimum which..ouch.
You can get the large digital giages and large infotainment in the sle and lt on the 24s. That will save you a few grand over those up trim ones. But the 23s thw biggest you can get is 8. The custom is a great package but the screen is small for sure.
Still mindblown that there is no rear seat folddown cupholder option.
I'm getting ready to buy a red custom 2500 and I was wondering would I have to level before putting 285's on it
I'd check with discount tires or similar, they can confirm if you should have room, but I don't believe you'd have to change anything with that tire size. The wheel wells are gigantic and can handle a really decent sized tire and rim.
Im really thinking about getting a gasser for the 5th wheel but I hope it will be enough. the trailer with be 14k dry. Can I have some advice.
At 14k, gasser all day. I've used this truck for 10k miles straight towing. I have tons of videos of this truck and the ford zilla crushing the Ike, the plains and wolf creek. Plus I commute in mine and I don't want to worry about regens. The chevy gas is rated at 18500 gooseneck. It handled 17 k all day up and down the mountains. Id say, save the 10k the diesel costs and have no emissions headache.
So this is an Allison branded transmission, made by GM, who is renting the Allison name.
I built a custom with the duramax with a ton of options for $66500
Have u leveled big red
Isn’t Allison now built by GM. With the Allison emblem?
They took autotrac2 away from the Custom and WT... So no auto 4wd which is handy driving around town at low speed on mixed surface conditions
@automotiveincorp what truck rides better? I have a chevy and think it rides way better than the fords?
I will agree with you 100% the gm trucks ride better than both Ford and ram, regardless of trim. The chevy/gmc trucks are tough beasts, but don't ride like it at all.
Price isn’t that bad. Well for todays times… still is overpriced imo.
Given that some of the new Colorado 7z1s are going for around 50k. Crazy you can get a truck 2x as big, with probably 2x the life span for less than 10K more.
Good looking truck. Have fun with her!
Absolutely 💯, thanks
What’s the max towing on it with gooseneck?
It's 3399 payload, 16k conventional and 18400 gooseneck, not bad for a 2500 gas...more than my zilla
It’s a work truck !
Wow very well optioned custom! I tried ordering a custom trim but couldn't get the convenience package up here in Canada for some strange reason do I ended up going with an LT
One thing I think you should keep in mind is that this is a 2024 Chevy and your Ford is a 2022. As you well know there were several changes made this year for the Ford Super Duty some I like some I dont but so be it. I really wish I wasnt so far away I would meet up and we could test the new 7.3 and the old as well as your new 6.6
True the 7.3 did get a bump in power and tow ratings, gears...but it's the best we'll get, one things for sure if the Chevy even competes that will be a sure testament. The ford interior I have competes more with the 24 gm I bought, bit this is about ability for me, according to the power numbers the chevy shouldn't be close, but after driving it the last few days I must say no one should be disappointed. It would be groovy if you were closer. Maybe I'll get out that way sometime.
@@automotiveinquiries9673 I'd say the biggest improvement made to the 23' 7.3 power train is the transmission shifting. I would some what agree Ford lacks in certain areas I was never a Ford guy but they General Motors 6.0 and 4l80e made me a Ford guy lol. I do think this year Ford really tried to improve some of the things you pointed out in the video that your Chevy has a leg up on. Not saying they did it right but they tried. Still looking forward to your verdict over the next little while on the comparison. In the end I really wonder what the longevity of that 6.6 is going to be I have nearly 50k tried and true tested miles with the 7.3 between my 2 trucks. I know the 6.0 gm didn't hold up that's what made me a Ford guy.
You're the only person I've ever heard say that the 6 L GM engine is a bad engine. Things are literally bulletproof and they regularly go 400000 miles with minimal maintenance.
Won’t be not extra activities under hood there bud. These trucks are locked up tighter thank Fort Knox lol no tuning, super charger, pro charger or turbos. Most you can do is full exhaust and intake. Can’t even change the radios in these trucks. Found out the hard way. Good looking truck check out the Mbrp exhaust for it.
I would have considered the Custom package, but the interior dash is so antiquated, it’s a deal breaker, too bad because the exterior is really nice, especially those wheels
Yeah, I really did want that new interior, but for the channel I just needed the 6.6 and the allison...and the factory puck...what I'm finding is most dealers aren't ordering the factory 5th wheel prep with the gas for 24. I also don't know what the long term plan is with the custom and the interior. If they keep the package and update the interior or they keep it the same moving forward or drop it. Since you can order the custom 20 wheels on the lt 3500, it basically looks like the custom but get the new interior. Have the Ike gauntlet pull coming up this week.
Are you aware of the recall of the Chevrolet truck transmissions. Please call your dealer to check on your specific truck. You have a totally awesome truck. Hope it is ok.
Thanks, when I purchased it they ran a recall check thay day and there weren't any current ones, I checked it just now again on the site and it doesn't show any. I looked into it and didn't see any information out there on any recall. Do you have the recall campaign info? I'll look into it further.
I think you’ll find that a fifth wheel base will not interchange ford to Chevy. I know Chevy to ram will not interchange. The factory prep tow systems are not standardized.
True, but the curt puck adapter I bought will interchange (reaspn I bought it) just have to flip the brackets, then any standard 5th wheel that uses above rail plates will work. Although the curt Adapter will not work with the ram.
I did notice it started pulling a lot beter after 15000 miles on it
What kinda mileage you getting
Purchased a 2022 gaser high country paid about 10k more than what you paid.
Nice truck. I noticed you said they gave you a 5k discount. Can you tell me what the price was? Going to the dealer tomorrow to get a custom too.
The way mine was equipped it was at 61k and some change. AutoNation marked it down to 56 plus tax and title. They ended up throwing in the tint and clear bra and because the black essentials package wasn't on, they threw in the entire z71 liner package.
@automotiveinquiries9673 Thanks for the info. Got lucky that the one I'm working on literally just got off the truck and has no accessories on it yet. I left the dealer and have them working down on the price.
The 2023 has a 1.9 for 36 months going on but no one has the truck. I was going that route, but im liking the 10 speed after driving it.
I was about to get a steal of a deal on a new 2022 ram 2500 with the Cummings, but the payload is only 2200 pounds. Enjoy your Truck. Love the color.
@carlitoswayz-Okan nice, congrats, hopefully they get that proce down for you. I appreciate you being here and watching. I love ram too, but the crew isn't as big and that payload is a little light for sure.
how did you get a discount with inventory being so low?
May have been a series of reasons. AutoNation typically has msrp or discounts on their vehicles, and never market adjustments. Could be because of color and package also. Red is not a big seller as they say 1 in a 100 is a red buyer. As for package, the custom isn't (although it should be) as popular. It is a less equipped truck than a lathered put one.
@@automotiveinquiries9673 AutoNation of Denver?
They should of added the Allison transmission back in 2020. By now the 6.6 would of been modified with more horsepower and torque. That's on GM. I own a 2020 and was bummed they started adding the Allison transmission. Trucks are more expensive now. 😂
Dude! Xactly how I would order it.
My Z71 09 Silverado that I bought back in 09 brand new that I am still driving with 186K on her but I know sooner or later I'll have to replace her but who knows my 99 Jeep Wrangler is still in my garage and on the road , I bought my Silverado when I worked for GM for almost ten years now I work for Ford and I'm almost at my ten year point with them So I was checking out a used F350 with 12K on her , Gas motor , what a nice truck , but the price was 64K , That's probably what you payed for your new big red or close to it , Thanks for your post .
I just bought the same truck on 4/27!
Nice, congrats! Let us know how you dig it.
What kind of non towing MPGs are y’all getting?
@ATFireman driving the 6spd version a few years ago best non towing was 15.5 hwy, 12 city. With the 10 spd, getting 12.5 city and about 16 hwy, I will have a road trip this weekend and as I get more miles on it, I believe it will improve. On a side note, my 7.3 godzilla gets 14.5 city and 17.5 hwy, non towing.
I bought a 2023 chevy 2500 with a duramax. I'm glad I bought it. I love the duramax! The new 2024 interior is extremely uncomfortable, and all the extra technology crap they put on this, makes it a terrible choice to buy.
It usually says "includes later retrofit" if they will install it later....if not they omit and give you chumo change....
Says your truck is suppose to have a multiplex tailgate
I just got a 24 Silverado HD LT Package , I paid $58,560.00, your sticker I believe said $59K, how is that possible, you don’t even have the new dash? I’ve got the Alaskan snow package with black wheels and tubular black running board, and graphics, either I got a great deal, or you got robbed, ya have a really truck, but the pricing doesn’t add up
You don’t need a cord for CarPlay it’s wireless
How is that a hard truck to find?
With the gas, 10spd and factory 5th wheel prep. Most dealers in our area dont order the puck system in their gassers. I needed that to swap the hitch easily.
Diesel is diesel power but more money and more money to maintain, contrary gas truck can do the job and perform well at a cheapest price. I think I will go conventional gas truck easy to maintain, cheaper and will get the job done.
Ford offers 4.30 gears on gas F-250's which is a big deal for towing, way better than 3.73's, not sure if Chevy offers anything in that range, The Chevy price is very good.
Dealer told me they won’t be installing the rear usb ports, just a $25 credit check.
Check and add oil every 1200 miles
watch the oil consumption on the 6.6 gasser
LOL, you have to love chevy. "People are wanting repairs for excessive oil use on new engines", Chevy: "Change the standard, 1 quart per 100 gallons of fuel is the new normal"
I heard the concern about the oil usage from two other mechanics.
What key fob function does ford give free for life that GM doesn’t?
Ford gives you the connected services app on your phone which is a virtual key fob. Even if your vehicle physical fob does not have remote start your phone app will have it. Which allows you to find your vehicle, check vehicle health, schedule service or roadside help...lock..unlock..and start from anywhere your phone has service. Gm gives you a trial period anywhere from 6 months to a year, after that you'll pay a monthly charge, anywhere from 10 to 20 bucks a month (so I've heard) to keep the features in the phone app.
It's weird that it has the 10 speed Allison when all other videos i watched says the Allison doesn't start until the LT trim.
Yep, no matter what trim, gas or diesel you get the allison. No more 6 spd in 24 and forward.
When you're talking about the General and it's not a General .... my nickname for the Ford would have been MoFo
