Well it happened .. got a new rig

[Majja13]

The dealers were can I say very motivated to assist me in getting a new hauler. So here it is, not fancy just a down right new truck with the needed bells and whistles.

2015 GMC 2500HD 6.0
6 Speed
4:10 rear end
Trailering Equip Pkg
Trailering Mirrors
Spray in bed liner
8 ft bed (suprise to me I liked the 8ft as much as I did)











So I guess it is time to change the sig. I think I may notice the slight power difference between this truck and my old 2000 5.3 🙂

Does it even move in 1st gear? Those 6-speeds have a massively tall 1st gear, which combined with the 4.10 axle ratio, should have the truck wound out and shifting into 2nd at about 3mph... Sheesh.

Thank you all. Now lets see if my sig picture is correct. I was suppose to take my trailer up to elk camp today. So i have been driving all over the area to try and get my 500 miles on her so I can take the trailer up to camp on friday.

The truck looks great!

Sig picture is fine, but I would have picked the 2nd one from your OP. The one where the truck is quartering toward the camera. But that's just me...

Congrats on the new rig!!!!

Thank you all. It should handle my currant tt well as the scale said it is only about 6300 completely loaded and ready to camp. I also have to reset up my hitch. I don't think I will need much of the wd part of the hitch.

Congrats, and good color choice. Looks sharp.

congrats on the nice new truck, with a wheelbase that long, it should be extremely stable.

looks like the perfect truck for your needs. 4:10 rear gear is what I would have bought also. Kinda feel sorry for you buying a new truck that needs to be washed every week.

Yes, congratulations on the new truck! It should serve you well!
Buy the way White is the color that shows dirt the least! Black and darker colors are the worst. Great color choice.

Nice rig!

Like it a lot, especially the color. Always been my favorite on GM trucks. Looks like the perfect rig for your needs. Congrats, enjoy it for a long long time..

Congrats, you will love the 6.0 with the 6 speed auto. I can tell u that it will be a world of difference from the older 5.3 and 4 speed. I did the same and have never looked back. I don't recal the wieght that ur pulling. When I pull I always lock out 6th gear and use 5th with tow haul mode. In the hills you will see 4th. But the other real advantage is the capacity that u gained from 1/2 ton to 3/4 ton. U will notice it when pulling. My wife stated that the current 09 felt like a strong truck compared to the 02 it replaced. The nice feature is the ability to use the toggle method and choose the gear when u hit any hills. Anyway enjoy you're new truck, congrats. Oh on edit.... That 4x4 will come in real handy when u need it. Great choice!

Yep, looks good (on your original post).
