Actually i have had it for over 3 months.....Wow @Jim B, I LOVE the grill on those new trucks! Sharp! It appears you've had it for almost two months, what's the verdict after a couple months of use?
Actually i have had it for over 3 months.....
The verdict, its awesome. I have 5500 miles on it so far and i have towed my boat and my enclosed dirt bike/motorcycle trailer with it a good bit. The 6.2 is simply a beast with the boat in tow. I have the max tow package with 3.73 gears and its a great combo. It pulls fantastic. Gas mileage is surprisingly good for it having that big 420hp 6.2. I average around 15 in the city and 19 on the freeway around New England. The computer says my best 25 mile average has been 23, 50 mile 21 and 400 mile 20. Lifetime average over 5500 miles is 17.5. I really cant complain about that at all, its really the same or slightly better than my old 2006 with the 5.3 got. I have had no issues or dealer visits for anything but its first freebie oil change.
That gas mileage is incredible! My "little" 2012 Nissan Frontier 4DR pickup with its 261hp gets 18/22 mpg. So what you're getting for twice the truck is absolutely stunning! My dad retired from GM, and I had always bought GM until recent. GM makes very well built trucks! Good job @Jim B!
