2.7l Turbo Real World MPG - GMC Sierra & Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4WD 4 Cylinder Fuel Economy
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 бер 2020
- I just crossed 1500 miles with my 2020 GMC Sierra Elevation Double Cab and I wanted to share my real fuel economy experience. This GM 2.7 Liter Turbo 4cyl engine in the Sierra and Silverado 2019+ pickup trucks is a hell of a motor. I have been really impressed with my truck's fuel economy and how well it performs. Since I now have put on several miles to get a feel for fuel mileage I can happily say the truck is getting 20+ mpg.

Best part of the video, was that you was straight to the point unlike some people.
Glad you liked it

The dog in the back just chillin lol
Looks like me when im stoned

that's me when my wife was keep talking
The dog. 😂😂😂
Great informative video. I have a 2023 Silverado 2.7 Turbo 4x4 Crew-cab, we recently did a long trip to Seattle Wa Along HW90 driving through Snoqualmie mountain pass. With 3 passengers and roughly 100lbs of cargo (not towing) we managed to get 20.428 miles per gallon (375miles / 18.4 gallon) amazing torque power and performance this engine have. Definitely turbo kick in around 1500 rpm 👍
Good review straight to the point
When my lease was up on my 2017 Silverado 5.3L. , went with the 2.7L , was skeptical at first but then thought about it , the 5.3 had a multi displacement engine and was in 4 cyl most of the time on the highway. So let’s give it a shot , very pleased with its performance best mpg so far 30.2 on a trip. Haven’t towed with it yet but it’s nice not to gas up every week. 23k miles so far and no complaints.
No way! Is it possible to get 30 mpg fairly consistently on the highway or is that just a peak "eco" type of driving?
My guess is that's kind of an outlier, however I have heard of people regularly getting between 22 and 25! Really not bad plus the city mileage is quite good
@@bigjohn3479if someone drives carefully enough they could get high mileage on a truck. I can get 28 mpg on the highway on my Jeep Gladiator. I also just bought another truck, a Supercrew F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost and a 6.5’ bed. I just bought it and haven’t done a road trip yet, but the best highway mpg I’ve been able to get has been 21 mpg.
2.7l turbo and sport mode makes this truck very fun. I am a big V8 guy but this truck is very interesting to drive. And I would say they could have gone bigger but then I look down and see 24mpg average. My Silverado whistles like a roller, drives like a car, and hauls like a v8.
@ Brandon Pal Enjoy it now Cause it gonna Blow up in a Year or Two ! Yes You Could have had a V8 !
These 2.7’s seem to be holding up just fine.
@@jerem0621 Well, I wouldn't know because I missed the V8 and 4wd so traded for a similar Trail Boss. It feels like the engine i have driven most my life and I love it because I know it. 2.7l 4 banger will never compare...sorry Chevy.
@@johnpapadakis1029 well, I traded in for a V8 trail boss. That 4 banger was just not enough. I have no clue what miles I get now and it is probably better for Joe Biden that I stay clueless. Kinda like how he operates everyday.
@@thunderbolt5354 don't count on it.
It is a truck engine from the ground up. Built like a diesel but runs on gas.
Thank you so much for this review man
My pleasure!
Love the dog! Chillin 😎
She is a good dog
Thanks for the practical and informative review.
Thanks!
Thanks for the quick review. We were just looking at them today. I’m surprised a turbo will run on regular, that in itself is impressive. Hope it continues to do well for you
It's been a great truck sofar
Great simple video. Thank you
I like my 5.3, but, fuel milage for me is around 15 in the city. 19 hwy. 100-ish extra miles to the tank is nice.
I have filled up 4 times. One was 17.3 mpg while towing 6k, and the other 3 times have been 23+
17.3 mpg towing 6k pounds is what these small displacement turbo charged truck motors are all about. I have an F150 with the 2.7L twin turbo and I get about 25 mpg empty with the cruise set at 65. I haven't towed with it yet but I'm curious what my mileage will be.
On the Highway did you have a 23+ mpg? Really???
@@alexk163 I got 24 on mines
@@rdsii64 you still happy with your 2.7
@@wmubroncos93 You better believe I'm happy with my 2.7!
Thanks for the review. Just traded in my Canyon for 2021 Elevation 2.7L turbo. Excited to get it.
Congratulations enjoy your new truck
@@johnpapadakis1029 Love mine, couldn't be happier!
I just got my 2021 Elevation 2.7l turbo with 30k miles. So far I love it, but I would be lying if I said I wasn't concerned about lifter damage from AFM. Have any of you had any issues? And has anybody here had the AFM disable or delete kit installed? Or ant recent updates I should be concerned with?
I rented a 2019 silverado 4x4 extended cab with the 2.7. I found that it not only performs better when you use e15 gas but also gets much better mpg...worth a try for ya and it's usually 40 cents per gallon cheaper around me
I have mine since 3 weeks and i do best 8.2l/100km very happy
I
Just bought a 23 crew cab 4x4 with the 2.7 turbo I am truly very impressed with the engine I’ve owned Chevy trucks since 1994 350 tbi /1998 350 vortec / 2000 Dually 454 vortec / 2002 1500 5.3 / 2005 1500 6.0/ 2007 tundra 5.7/ 13 tundra 5.7 / 19 tundra 5.7 and now went back to Chevy and I truly believe this has to be one of the best engines I’ve ever owned it has Great torque never seems underpowered or struggling and I live in Western Pennsylvania in the Allegheny mountains so we’re always climbing mountains I took my first long distance trip at 78mph for 600 miles my truck registered 29mpg. I really couldn’t believe it but it’s true
Great video and cool dog
Thanks 👍
I just bought a 22 custom 2.7 last night combined 21.3 this morning and the engines not broken in yet but after driving a 21 tundra for a year I am so damn happy already lol
u like it what u get it new trim level as well
@@bcateriosis4114 no I wish I did just for the tow rating but I love it still
Got one yesterday! Living in Southern California I appreciate the savings on gas
Nice!
Also what they put in winter gas will cut down on mpg too. So you'll get more in warmer temperatures.
12,000 miles on my 2020 4x4 crew cab Custom with 285 Nitto Ridge Grapplers, leveled and lifted. I’m getting 18.5 mpg with 85 octane 100% gas at 4500 feet elevation. My commute is only about 25 miles per day with a little interstate travel. It gets around 16mpg on ethanol gas. Fuel economy goes DOWN at interstate speeds. It does great around town and what I use it for. I’m satisfied with it, but it isn’t a truck to work or tow with.
Are you driving on country roads to get to work? Or is it more of city/suburban driving with stop and go traffic? That’s very impressive considering it’s a lifted full-size truck.
10 miles of 45/55 highway, 10 miles of 70mph interstate. 42,000 mile average of 17mpg.
I love that dog. Traded in my 17’ 2500HD with the 6.0V8 that got 9mpg for the 2.7T Silverado.. barely any noticeable power difference with regular driving
Oh for sure, I came out of my 2018 Sierra 2500 that I had for work (left that job) and got this. It is every bit as powerful as that truck was for normal opperations.
I currently have a 2016 2500hd with the 6.0. Indont tow as heavy anymore. Rough ride, 11 mpg unloaded=$600 a month in fuel, and only 380 torque has me thinking about going back to a 1/2 ton since they’re so capable now. I tow 6k lbs monday-Friday so I think any 1/2 ton truck would work for that. How do you feel about towing with the 2.7 vs your 6.0?
The dog chilling made me subscribe
Woof woof
From what I could tell all around it looks like a very clean truck! The question I do have which I think you started to address at the very end of the video is overall how does it handle being a bigger truck that normally would have a V-8 engine in it. As far as off-road or towing how has it performed? Thanks and great video
I guess i need to take my 2021 in to dealer for check up. I can't even get 16 in town with this same engine. The first few tanks i hyper-miled around town and cannot get the estimated EPA ratings. Other than that great engine. Great towing and performance.
I got the 2.7 liter and love it. For what I do not much towing but do go in the mountains it’s preformed very well for a 2.7. I did pull a trailer to on a 5 hour drive the load was not supper have or near max what it says it does. But I didn’t notice the trailer at all and fuel it’s what figured for a gas engine pulling a trailer. So far I’m very impress with it. I think everyone avoids it cause they are use to a full size truck been a v8 or 6. But for the price and preforming it’s down very well
Can we take a second to appreciate the fuel prices.
Love ur dog so well behave.
She is a good girl
Nice pup
Great video I’m actually looking at getting a 2.7 right now do you have a high mileage update? How’s it been thus far any issues with it think it’ll go 200? K
Im at 23k an has been a dream. Will be doing a update video with MPG and the like at 25k
I just bought a 2021 Silverado custom 2.7l turbo. Felt really ashamed of myself but honestly it was all I could afford at the moment. And since I have a baby on the way I don’t feel like I need a v8 right now. Don’t plan on towing anything or any of that. Just need something to drive to work and home and go out with the family on the weekend. So far really love the truck. Just hate the stereotype that comes with buying a 4 cylinder truck
No need to be ashamed to have a nice new truck. Who cares what motor you have
@@JrsGasolineAlley yeah that’s what I’ve been telling myself. I love my truck it’s nice. But already had a guy hit me with the “why would you not get a v8?”
You will enjoy it more if you do a muffler delete and let that turbo sing. I love V8’s but I’m very interested in this 4 banger
@@CactusJack252 id be up for that tbh
I thought the 4 cyl Would have to rev like crazy to do its job but it’s not the case the turbo and the low range torque are awesome
Yeah its pretty effortless.
I wanna like the 2.7L when I test drove it I love the way it pulled. But I can't get over the exhaust. Plus it comes with the 8speed transmission which is a no go for me. I'll probably end up spending a whole lot of money on a 2020 RST with the 6.2L and 10spd but it's like finding a unicorn in the woods.
I agree the 8 speed is the reason I'm waiting. GM offers this engine in the caddilac ct4-v backed by the 10 speed already so I know its doable
Agreed it’s a sin to ride a full size lifted truck with a lawnmower engine
@@alvidrez7956 nah
under ideal weather conditions - with a bed tonneau - it will be notably better. Also 87 octane is a trade-off ... cheaper gas, lower fuel economy - especially on winter blend. I have an ecotec 2.0 in my passenger car ... on snow tires and idling a lot in winter, on 87 octane - the fuel economy dropped by 15%. With the tonneau cover in summer, properly inflated tires and higher octane fuel - you might see over 23mpg average - even better on the highway staying around the speed limit.
Just read nthe Colorado is dropping all of its current engines including the Duramax and putting this gas turbo in it's place .
I'd be happy with that mog.
That's the best thing they could do. To me this has been a great engine and in the Colorado this would be amazing
the 2.8 is being neglected. With some minor updates and paired with a 10 speed it would do a lot better. FFS its getting out classed by the 3.0 in the much larger Silverado. By definition a smaller, lighter truck with a smaller engine that has 80% of the power should get better fuel economy, and it doesn't.
I’m either getting this model truck new or a used 5.3 not sure yet so any advice would be greatly appreciated
Myn is a 2019 gmc with the 2.7 I have had the truck 10 months and it has 34,000 miles on it I do 80% 55-60mph and 20% 70-75mph every day to and from work and I average about 26-27mpg.
Thats impressive.
I just got the Chevy with the 2.7 engine I think I have around 1200. I'm not sure what I'm averaging per gallon but it does pretty good.
I'm pumped to see the Canyon hopefully get this motor. My 19 Canyon gets 21-22 combined with the 2.4... but it's a dog sometimes.
The Canyon would be amazing with this motor
Really considering this as I never tow and ONLY drive at 55mph no city. Sometimes highway. Currently averaging 18.5mpg life over 40 000 in a Z71 LT2 rally 2 5.3 2018 Chevrolet Silverado (damn that was long). I'd have to keep the duramax 10 years to make it worth it. By that time I'll have a electric truck lol.
Just crossed 2k and I still really like the truck. Worth it for what you are describing
@@JrsGasolineAlley you still happy with the truck ? I have Nissan Titan v8 9 mpg city and 13.5 mod highway and i really thinking in buy the 2.7 Silverado 1500
Not bad mileage. My 8000 lb Dually 2005 Ram Cummins diesel 4 door 4x4 8foot bed truck gets about 17mpg on the highway trips. Around town 14 to 15. That highway driving I was driving from Lititz Pennsylvania to Newport News VA. rather fast. I get my best mileage keeping the tach under 2000 rpm. Over that and the turbo spools up which kills mileage. On the Cummins forum, there are people who hyper mileage these diesel trucks and say they can get in the low 20's
I thought you were not supposed to use regular gas in a four cylinder turbo here you are supposed to use 93 octane is this true?
I have a 5.3 with lift and 33s I ave about 17 and i personally don’t think 2-4 mpg more makes a huge difference and when they tow they average out
Idling? Winter fuel? 60% hwy? 20.11 is GREAT! Same scenario with 18 Tundra, DC, I'd avg 14. It also gets 17.5 on the highway. Summer time I avg 15.6. you'll prolly get 22 or 23.
Yeah it is easily into the 21s right now with mostly around the town driving now that everything is shut down
I'm not really a GM guy, but i do own an old GMC Jummy. I would love to be able to swap this engine in it in place of the 4.3.
I just purchased a 2022 Silverado Trail Boss with the 2.7L Turbo. I am getting 22 Hwy and 14 stop and go. I'm averaging about 19mpg at the pump. The power for this huge heavy beast is amazing!! I would buy this truck all over again with no hesitation. BTW, love your little sleepy-eyed dog sitting next to you.
That is awesome!
How much your tank takes to fill it up is it g71
I have V6 Chevy Silverado Z71 Trail Boss waste a lot of gas
I'm surprised there's no diesel gay boys in the comments bashing your truck
ur so right. thats all i see when i scroll comments on other videos. all gays
My 19 sierra 1500 with 2.7l turbo gets a steady 23mpg in the wv mountains
Your pooch rocks!
Agreed!
Good day, I'll be getting one also, I would like to know the longevity of the turbo itself though as no one would be looking to have to service or replace a turbo at 60,000 mile or so. Also have subscribed. Thx
Its generally the turbos goes after the injectors 150Kish range If driven real easy , have seen before that and at 100K or less when pushed all the time ~its common
I love mine
I have a 2021 custom Silverado 2.7 and I can set cruise control on hwy to 70 and barely get 19 mpg. my 2017 Ram 5.7 that I traded off got 21mpg.
Interesting.
Just got a 22. Came with 6 inch rough country lift kit on 35s. It's only 2wd. *Sad face* but dash says avg mpg of 18. Not bad pushing that much tire. Much better than the 12 mpg my tundra got. Going to see how well it pulls my boat wich is around 4k lbs.
Honest question, why put a lift kit and bigger tires on a 2wd?
@@sonnysystems1337 I didn't it already had it on there
I’m getting a 2.7 crew cab tomorrow. Inventory was low, I would have preferred the 5.3. Im trading an 18’ double cab Sierra with the 5.3 for it. Best I’ve gone in the 5.3 was 28.8mpg on a long highway ride. Usually I’m in the 24-26mpg highway. That cylinder shut off works very well, and I’ve modified my driving to get it to cruise in 4cyl mode. Im hoping I didn’t just make a mistake trading my 5.3, but that double cab was too tight with 2 car seats in it
Congrats on your new truck.
Maybe you did. It's a turbo working a 4 cylinder hard to push a heavy truck! I don't understand how people can think this is ok. Maybe it can tow well(not sure, I have to research this) but even so it's a freaking 4 cylinder pushing a large truck and trying to tow!!! I bet around the 60,000 mark you'll have stress related oil leaks.
@@wkw4095 so after owning it now for a few months, i can report it’s harder for the 2.7l to return the fuel efficiency my 2018 5.3l did. I have to baby it and work to drive it efficiently to get 22-23mpg highway. The 5.3 would get 24 without even trying. I just did a long stretch CT-MD and it was mostly 24mpg and I was working to keep it efficient. My 5.3l has made the trip several times and would get over 26 easily.
BS
@@rustyrutledge9094 I also say bs. our 5.3 ONLY ONCE on a Seattle to Cottage Grove trip got 22. All the other trips, 19 maybe 20. I also call bs, 26 on a 5.3. Not my experience. Beave
Thinking this exact truck but with the crew cab. Any issues so far? How many miles you have so far.
14k on the truck so far. Only one trip to the dealer for an oil change.
Big question for me is what the long-term reliability will be. Will this motor hold up well over time, or will it go bad after only 60,000 miles? It it runs well, gets good performance and fuel mileage, and is durable, then it will be a great addition to the GM lineup.
My 2017 Silverado with a 4.3 gets 20 miles per gallon in the city
I love trucks for their size, safety, utility, and comfort. Since I rarely tow and haul anything heavy the 2.7 is perfect for me. Just waiting for the 2022 to be released. More torque and a updated interior.
Any idea when that would be?
@@thtdudenamdbilly you can now order on their website
Thank you My 4.3 will get 22 mpg in Minesota
Nice
Just wondered some time later....gas millage still really good and would you get the same engine again?
I still absolutely love this truck, I'm over 40K on the truck and have been averaging just north of 20 MPG. That includes all the towing and wide range of driving conditions that I do. Sometime soon I'll do a update on the truck, but I'm incredibly pleased with it
I currently own a 2011 Gen 1 Hennessey Raptor, and looking to add a new truck. I've been looking at the Ram EcoDiesel but this GM 2.7 has caught my eye.
Diesel is pretty much the same price in my area versus regular unleaded but I always run premium in my Raptor so this is a big consideration.
2.7 is gas
@@tjh7797
My comment was comparing the Ram EcoDiesel to this 2.7 L running premium as that's what I run in my Raptor. I know a few people with this 2.7 L that are not getting much better fuel economy than the 5.3 L so I'm going to stick with the EcoDiesel.
That $2.39 gas is looking pretty tasty here in 2022.
Yup
Hey is there any performance benefit on running 91 on these trucks? Also any aftermarket support with e85?
91 would give some knock resistance when it is hot outside.
What do you think about the 2.7l turbo going into a midsize truck like the chevy colorado or gmc canyon
It would be a beastly motor in those trucks.
My 2023 2.7l best at 17.5 mpg idk why I thought I'd get better mileage then that is there anything I need to do
I have 2019 5.3 with 8 speed. Its MPG is worse than my previous 2014 5.3 with 6 speed. With this I get 18 combined.
What was the 2014's mpg?
@@JrsGasolineAlley I had 26.9 as the best in 400 miles. I can say it was easily 10% better than this one. 2019 is huge and it likes moving wall 😳
I am having the same issues with my 19 Sierra with the 4.3 V6. Terrible fuel economy because of the big hood and bulkiness of the truck. It's creating too much wind resistance as that big hood and big bulk is trying to punch a hole through the air thus causing the motors to work harder. Here's an explanation:
gmauthority.com/blog/2018/09/2019-silverado-fuel-economy-why-the-numbers-barely-moved/
Poor judgement by GM in letting this happen when its closest competitors, Ford and Dodge, are getting better fuel economy from similar engines. The big hood and low seating also inhibits visibility. In the base model I have, there isn't even a manual adjust for height. Even a base Cruze has it. I even sat in a Sierra that had a power seat and it didn't make much of a difference as the seat starts off too low and the power version does not life it high enough to get a good view.
I've owned GM trucks for 30 years...this one has been the most disappointing....5 recalls, the radio had to be replaced, and the doors needed to be resealed due to water leaks. Now, I'm getting a hard 1-2 shift in the tranny, a tremendous amount of rattling in the cab when the truck travels over bumpy terrain, and a lot of wind noise. Wish I could trade it in but I'd lose too much money.
Has your truck been better?
@@joeraptor1 my truck isn't that bad. Of course, I went through all recalls, but didn't have your other issues. Mine is Silverado LTZ. I checked Ford and Ram as well. Their MPG is very close to mine. I'm just talking about my 5.3L V8. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about 4.3 V6.
Getting 20mpg on my 2019 5.3l
I have one. Thank you for let me know
Enjoy your truck
Are you still happy with your purchase? I usually put 30,000 miles a year on a vehicle. Fuel efficiency is key obviously, but anything that sips the fuel doesn’t hold its value. Still loving it?
Love it. Almost crossing 6k miles now and it has been one of the best automotive purchases I have made. 20.9avg as of now.
Jr's Gasoline Alley thank you very much for the quick response. I’m still debating it, but this gives me some confidence in buying one.
What size wheel and tires do you have on your 2.7?
20 wheels - 275/60/20
Im not sold on the 2.7L.
With 4 cylinders, a turbo charger, and all the stuff GM has done to the engine to coax power out of it. I cant see the fuel savings offsetting the cost of ownership when considering the cost of parts and labor after the warranty is up. If you can afford to get into a new truck every 3 years, then it's probably cost-effective. After 5 years, even with regular maintenance, like most vehicles, stuff is going to break and Turbos aren't cheap.
I will stick with my 5.3l with AFM. Replacing a lifter will still be cheaper than the cost of replacing a turbocharger.
How will it be with 100k on it, will it go another 200k?? I am looking at one.
Who knows, time will tell. I am almost crossing 10k so far so good.
Is your oil pressure always that low. Noticed it on other video towing uhaul drom Fla
Yes these engines use a variable rate oil pressure pump, so it its quite normal to see the oil pressure look "low"
I have 3000 miles on my 21 Silverado 1500 with the 4cyl turbo. I am at about 20mpg
Nice
Same as my accord bro. Not bad at all. My accord is a 2.0t and my average now is 21 I do sit in my car a lot and I idle it a lot but I do about 70% highway. And my car says that it get 36 mpg highway and 22 city.
Wow, to match your car is pretty good.

@ Dennis Hays Bub you will NOT in a couple of years when it Blows up like a Hand grenade !
@@thunderbolt5354 oh freaking really
@@dennishays3617 Hey Pal Google Scotty Kilmer The Master Mechanic and see what he says about the 2.7 4 Banger Silverado !
I would buy the 4.3 V6.
Or the 5.3 V8. The fuel economy gap isn't that much different to me to be worth having the 2.7 I4.
Lol. Why would you ever want the 4.3 over this motor?
4.3 is the worst motor they have hence why they are scraping the V6 . I could see some one wanting the 5.3 over the 2.7 but definitely not the 4.3
Just so everyone knows the 2.7 l is like an entire second faster 0 to 60 than the V8 or the V6 it tows slightly less other than that it's a more powerful motor it's 310 horses which is only like 40 horses more than the V6 that's a whole Harley-Davidson Sportster worth of horsepower
What app are you using for the gas mileage?
Fuelly
I have a 2021 GMC X31 with a 5.3L, and it will get about 20 mpg on the hwy.
Cool
I would get the 2.7 all day... You wont have to worry about the 5.3 lifter dropping issue....
It's been a great engine for my needs so far.
Crazy that the 6.2 with 8 speed gets better mpg then the 2.7l
No!? You cant be serious
I just bought a GMC Sierra 2024 2.7 l but I don't know if I did it right because I think the 5.3 will last more mileage. Maybe I don't know. If you still have yours, tell me if it's worth keeping it or changing it for a 5.3.
I love it. Nearly 80k on the clock, still very happy with my choice.
Thanks bro, I appreciate your comment, I will take it into account.
Just looking at 2021 elevation and I got told that it’s 2.7 turbo V6. Is it a 4 cylinder or a 6 cylinder?
4
My 2016 GMC with the 5.3L gets about the same mileage. My highest on the I-95 highway was 29.6MPG. I never saw that again but I did see close to it.
Cool...
going downhill
heyyy, Tu perro se esta durmiendo... xD
base model Maverick enters the chat
Yep, thats a great choice these days. Although it doesnt tow 9,000lbs but for daily driving all good.
Cute dog
Thanks
Well me and my husband are getting one this Monday tomorrow let see how it goes lets see if it last the 6 years of financing
It will. After 10k I am very happy with my truck
If you don't follow factory recommended intervals for fluids, you going to have truck lasting you 20 years. Quality fluid and short change intervals is the secret
The good old days when the fuel was 2.39.
Lol
They should of made the Tahoe with the 2.7 too
Agreed.

@@thunderbolt5354 you do realize the 2.7T hae a much more usable torque curve then the 5.3L V8? The 2.7T 348lb-ft of torque from 1500-4000RPM, the 5.3L torque doesn't peak until 4000rpm(383lb-ft), requiring downshift to keep the rpm up to do any real work.
I'd take the 2.7T and its diesel like torque every time. Thats even before considering the 75 miles average farther per tank the 2.7T can drive then the 5.3L.
@@hogrod Bullshit Dude the 5.3 has a way Higher towing and Hauling rating ! The 2.7 TurboTURD Doesn't come close to the towing and hauling ability of the 5.3 and 6.2 ecotec V8 powered GM Trucks ! 5.3= 11600 pound tow rating 2.7TurboTurd 7000 pound tow rating !
might want to look at your info, GM raised the tow rating 2000lbs for 2021 with no changes to the truck. GM engineers said further testing showed it more than capable of the new 9600lb rating.
Unless your talking with the max tow package the 5.3l and 6.2l both tow about the same as the 2.7L now. Also don't forget, lighter engine gives the 2.7T a highest payload of all 1500 trucks.
Drive one before you comment, you would realize your prized V8 isn't that much of an improvement in towing capability. Power curve doesn't lie.
20mpg, not to shabby. If l had a choice based on fuel economy I'd go with the 2020 Ram Ecodiesel that just came out. Auto industry reviewers are coming back with 26mpg combined highway/city driving. Highway alone, some have seen 30mpg in rwd, but on a 4x4 truck. Plus that engine is available across all levels, where as the Chevy/Ford equivalent aren't. Power wise the Chevy takes it.
Well sure the eco diesel is great and if money was no object id be driving one! A similar trim in a Dodge with the diesel would run about 7k more. That's a hell of a lot of miles before you break even. Not to mention Diesel is about 12% more expensive per gallon.
I’ll keep my v8 I get 16-17 around town with and exhaust and I like to hear it lol
Lol, perfectly reasonable choice!
@@JrsGasolineAlley beautiful truck tho man enjoy!
Hmm they must make one with dual fuel tanks or am I seeing another cup holder??
Haha for DEF if it were diesel
2022 times change, I just pay now $120 full tank silverado 1500 2021
Attractive man
Agreed
Does the 2.7l 8 speed have any issues?
So far 47K in no issues
I straight up almost puked at the thought of a 4 banger truck
Cool
why does it have 2 holes where you fill gas?
For DEF if it were a diesel. That hole is blocked off because a gasoline engine does not need jt
My 6.2L V8 gets smiles per gallon 😁
There ya go, we all pay for fun!
