- I love that a beast of a motor can get near 21 on highway !! Nice job GM. Now make me a duramax suburban !!
- Looks like a winner! 12k towing, 2k payload. And it appears to scoot along pretty comfortably.
- Now if only it could be had in lower trim levels.
- Nice truck!
- Wish they would build a HD version of that combo.
- I think that engine and trans combo will get very similar to 3.5 ecoboost. 460 ft pounds, and an awesome tone from exhaust !!
- Did I hear them correctly when they mentioned that the Silverado 6.0 gas HD won the heavy duty gas test?
If so very interesting when the competition (6.2 Ford, 6.4 Ram) seem to have the advantage on paper. MARK VANDERBENT wrote:

I was getting gas the other day and there was a new suburban next to me. I was shocked how aggressive the exhaust note was when he started it. Don't know what engine it had but it sure did sound nice.rottidawg wrote:

In a very unscientific test they choose the 6.0 over the 6.4 Hemi and 6.2 respectively. Having said that I'm not sure what GM is waiting for to put this 6.2 in their HD trucks.MARK VANDERBENT wrote:

Yes, great exhaust tone, and the tone actually comes from the engine, not artificially piped in through the stereo speakers.
