All I can say is I ran the 5.3 in the 13,14,15,16 Silverado. All were pretty gutless towing. I kept the ‘16 Silverado the longest and traded for the 2020 3.0 LM2 Duramax. I’m still towing the same enclosed trailer and that LM2 has towed flawlessly and twice the mpg as the 5.3 and with much better torque. I would never consider going back to the 5.3 gas engine. This LM2 has been flawless and trouble free. It does suck that DEF when towing, but, so be it, it is so much better performance over the 5.3. Absolutely love this little max
I'd agree with you in this situation - the diesel is always going to win for towing feel, even in models where it has the lesser towing capacity. The torque and low-end torque make it pull harder and easier.
The 3.0 is one of the best engines I've experienced in a half-ton truck. The 5.3 and 6.2 both have DFM cylinder deactivation so you're still at risk of having issues with that. You need to change the oil very often, every 4000-5000 miles to keep the lifters happy. My 2024 3.0 has been problem free. The 10-speed plus 3.73 axle ratio means I drive up steep grades in 10th gear running just 1600 RPM and easily average 29 to a 32 MPG highway. The difference in torque is massive and I don't miss having to listen to a small V8 scream to 5000 RPM just to pass someone. Diesel here is $3.49/gal and regular is $3.29. For 20 cents more per gallon I'm easily getting 8 MPG more than my 2019 5.3 truck.
I just purchased a new 2023 LT 4X4 with the 3L diesel. I was in the market for a 2024 5.3 but I spotted a new 2023 with 11k in rebates. Purchased the new 23 for 47k and so-far I am happy with my decision.
A new '23 for 47K?!?! Where/how did you get a deal like that?!?! I've been looking at the RST crew cab 4x4 diesel for months now and they hover around $60K.
Yep. I've owned both. I've put over 200k on a 5.3 and as of today just rolled 60k on my 3.0 and I prefer my 3.0. I had one issue right out of the "box". I had a small radiator leak so the dealer tossed a new one in and I haven't had in issue since. I have the LM2 version. Gets great MPG in the summer, not so much in a Wisconsin winter with winterized diesel fuel. Still over 21 but not the 25 or so I'd get in the summer overall. Oh, I've long haul towed roughly 11k with mine and it did great even though *technically* I was overweight. I kept track of tranny temps and even the rear diff with a "gun" and saw really no difference from towing lighter loads. Brakes are more than adequate as well.
No it’s not a hands down better motor it will cost you much more to own than the 5.3 it tows less and if you have a problem it will cost you out the ass to fix the 5.3 is still the best motor GM puts out hands down
Have had two 5.3 engines in a 14 Silverado and a 17 Sierra on my 23 Silverado I went with the LZ0 only had my new truck 2 weeks so I can't give a really good opinion but so far it beats the 5.3 the low end torque and fuel economy is amazing. Hopefully it will be as trouble free as my 5.3' s have been.
Both great engines, my 15 5.3 has 210k I deleted the AFM at 26k, engine is still strong, no check engine light yet. I recently bought a 22 LM2, all I can say is for a half ton pick up it’s about time they utilize the inline 6. I’m glad it was General Motors. So far it is exceptional. Fuel economy is better then I expected. Even if diesel is a dollar more, and adding in the price of DEF. No question you will be saving money in fuel. Gas doesn’t need plugging in when it’s cold, also warms up quickly. Also I’ve only changed the oil in my 5.3 as far as regular maintenance. I drove it all over the U.S I know why so many people like the “small block Chevy”
So far after a bit over 80k on my LM2, I've had ZERO issues with it. Great MPG and unless you're towing or constantly standing on the go pedal...the DEF consumption is very good. I have no illusions that this is bigger than it is though. IF I needed a diesel work truck I'd move up to a 2500. These engines were designed with the weekend warriors in mind. Mostly street/highway and the occasional weekend camper/boat hauling. Trying to tune these things to get more power out of them will only lead to failure in many instances as they're pretty much "tuned" to their practical limit.
Will do. FYI, I only tow a motorcycle for about 600 miles per year and I’d only drive it about 7k years per year. I’d like the higher MPG, but I just don’t see the benefit, especially for the cost of diesel fuel and maintenance cost.
The reason for the max tow disparity is that the LM2 was not available with the max trailering package while the 5.3 was. Without the max trailering package the 5.3 had a much lower max tow rating which was on par with the LM2. Now that the max trailering package is available with the LZ0 the max tow ratings are in the same league, with the LZ0 having a slight advantage.
After replacing the block and injectors on my 5.3 I am done with the 5.3.. the AFM cylinders have issues with the lifters, when they fail, they bend rods and cylinders fail. No way to turn them off unless you swap out the lifters with the AFM springs.
D - People have different preferences. To some it may be a no brainer, but to others they value other things. However, thanks for sharing your opinion!
This is a great vid. I have two F450s for heavy hauling. Diesels are more expensive to maintain and fuel cost is more. I have an 06 GMC 5.3 that has not let me down with over 200k miles. I was hot for one of these 3 liter diesel I will now get a 6.2 or 5.3 again
I find that diesel is much less expensive than gas. I currently have a 6.2L and its premium fuel is a full one dollar more expensive than diesel. 87 is 60 cents more expensive than diesel. So when I recently ordered an SLT I went with the Duramax as it was a no brainer, especially since I tow.
A - Idk where you are getting your diesel fuel, but typically it is more expensive per gallon. However, it sounds like you are taking a more technical approach here.

I would add the Ford 5L now (introduced 2021 or 2022) has cylinder deactivation and the Ram 5.7 and 6.4 have cylinder deactivation too. As for the 3L diesel it has problems too as detailed in the video. But the inline 6 configuration seems to have a distinct advantage over V6 competitors.
