Chevrolet 6.6 burning oil
Been a diehard Chevrolet gas, engine truck person my entire life. Use them very hard in my landscaping business, and the 6.0 gasoline never missed a beat. unfortunately the 6.0 gasoline is nonexistent...

And to add insult to injury GM is still dropping the old 6 speed behind them when the other 2 mfgs have been offering 8 or 10 speed slushboxes for years now.

Grit - time to stop with the insult. We know your hatred for GM. The 10 sp is now the transmission behind the 6.6.
I have used the 6.6 for towing goosenecks with 15k lbs, with 6 sp. Hopefully will get the chance to put 6.6 with 10 speed through same workout.
Oh, that’s cool. Is there a mid year update? Or is the 2023 HD model specs wrong when it lists the 6 speed as standard (w/ gas engine) and 10 speed an optional but only with the diesel?
What would make you think I hate GM vehicles? Maybe you were thinking of Ford? (I don’t even hate Ford trucks, especially if I get to use them for free…lol)
I’m a GM guy at heart. But that doesn’t change the fact that GM has been bringing up the rear in HD pickup gasser performance. That’s not my opinion, it’s a fact.
But if I wanted a pickup with 3 or 4 less forward gears, I’d just use this one!
Long live HD GM gassers!
