Going on 4 years with my 2020 LM2. Bought it mainly for my somewhat frequent long work commutes (200+ mile trips). My lifetime average is right at 25 MPG. My last tank got me 670 miles. It tows 5-7k lbs very well. My last tow trip was about 5klb enclosed v-nose 1500mi and averaged about 13 MPG. My only issue so far has been some soot buildup on the DEF injector which threw a NOx efficiency code. Dealer replaced it under warranty.
21 ltz 4x4 3.0 been amazing.. I own and drive semi’s for a living. I didn’t get it for towing.. family trips and daily driving 28 to 34 MPG city is amazing. Truck currently has 41,000 miles on it. Nothing but great things to say :)
@@jasonbrown9675 Do your own oil changes and avoid getting screwed by the stealership service dept. 7 qts of oil and a high quality filter for the 3.0 should cost no more than $70. As far as the emissions system, this engine was designed to be the most reliable diesel on the market and so far it seems like it achieves that. I haven't seen any reports of emissions problems with this engine, but yo MUST use a high quality diesel fuel additive to protect the fuel injection and emissions systems for the long run, since diesel quality in the USA is pathetic. I use 1-2 oz of Hot Shots EDT in every fillup and I use their fuel system cleaner once before each oil change.
Hey Jack, just wanted to say you was missed Ive been watching your channel since you had you're first Corvette. I really appreciate the education thur the vids. Keep up the amazing job you do and you're in my prayers brother.
The LZ0 has more power everywhere . Especially in the upper rpm where the LM2 just drops off. Also the 23’+ can have Maxtow. Lower rear gear of 3.73. Cooling upgrades Also. The max tow trucks are getting better real world MPG. Really hope you get to try one.
I have a 2024 LTZ LZO CCLB Max tow. The fuel economy is great, easily getting 28-30 mpg. Best 50 mile average was 31. Holds 10th gear effortlessly going up decent inclines.
@@Tyrel_GProbably due to the valve cover issue that resulted in excessive oil consumption. It would foul the glow plugs and destroy the dpf. There is a tsb and redesigned valve cover for it. Sure are a ton of guys with well over 100k miles without any issue. They probably have the redesigned valve cover. It could be worse. Tundras are blowing engines left and right and some guys have had more than one engine replacement in less than 60k miles.
I couldnt make up my mind between the 6.2 gas and the 3.0, so I just bought them both. The 6.2 is a blast but the 3.0 is amazing, just flat amazing. No regrets on the 3.0. as long as gm makes them I will own one.
I own a 2023 LZ0 and several new HD trucks. My LZ0 is what I grab at a moments notice. I like my wife's Yukon with the air ride even more though. Currently at about 40K miles on my LZ0.
Not one. I love both vehicles. The Yukon is the nicest driving vehicle I've ever driven. The Sierra is a close second. Everyone who rides in it is surprised how nice of truck it is, the power and the fuel efficiency.
I bought the 2023 AT4 1500 3.0. Thought I was moving down south, but unfortunately, life had other ideas. I use the truck for daily running around, stop and go. I love the truck, the ride comfort, but it has been back to the dealership going on several times for emissions problem. I purchase my diesel from the same station since new, and the gas station is also new, so I would hope the fuel is good. 10,000 miles and keep getting check engine light. I'm going to the dealership again. Not very happy. Sad, though it was going to be my last truck.
City 21mpg, hwy 31mpg, and interstate 23.5mpg, towing boat 15.5 mpg, i bought brandnew 2021 gmc 3.0L texas edition slt and now 51k miles on it. Issues i have had: No start issues happen once ever 3 or 4 months but starts right after, yellow indicator mirrors blind spot monitoring doesnt work, and mirriors tilt feature doesnt work while in reverse. Overall great truck, just like any truck, its not perfect.
I have the F150 diesel and average city and highway 26mpg monthly. Yes it is not a race car and yes it is not made to tow 20k but if you’re a half ton truck buyer it is the best engine option period.
It would be cool to see videos ab 7.3 and the lbz. As somebody who is looking into getting a diesel a video ab your experience with different variations of trucks you have owned. Like the pros n cons how is towing , daily driving, etc
Last August I made the switch from a “modified” 2016 Denali HD to a 2023 Sierra AT4 3.0. Do I miss the HD? YES. Do I love my new daily driver? ABSOLUTELY Perhaps one day I can own both 😂
Wish I had the money to go buy one to pull my camper with. Love to towing capacity and fuel economy. That is an awesome thing. And with how much it’s rated to tow is all I need for my 32’ pull behind. Love this truck
I am in a denali just like this one, but not ultimate. I think im in love. The only quirks I have may be the window button...wtf? why? why not roll up too? That could have been a physical button for the camera instead of the button being in the infotainment. Also, no adjustable pedals, another good option for a button in the group there. My 2014 slt had adjustable pedals and that's where the button was, on the left tho. Another thing I think could be better is the side mirrors. Mine are the same as these. I wish the cheap black plastic part was color matched to the truck and i wish the little round helper mirror was built in like my 2014. On stock wheels and tires, i am getting like 650 miles a tank and average closer to 30 with probably 80% long range highway drives daily with no load.
Curious as to your camera setup. If you've got a way to get optical stabilization and inbody stabilization that will work together, the shake should get better. I myself have started with Sony cameras. Highly recommend a Sony Alpha 7 mark 4 and a lense with OSS.
love the vid, but started getting a headache from the shaking. i ended up just looking at stuff on the internet on another tab and listened to this video just for the audio.
Hey Jack, love the feedback and information, I just had a question for someone who is young and has no kids I am torn between this truck or the 2500 because I wanna be able to tow comfortably with no worries I just can’t decide between the 2
I have a 7500lb 25 foot boat and trying to decide between the HD or 1500 Diesel? My current 2013 1500 gas does ok but struggling a bit . Mainly local towing within 30miles. Any thoughts? Thanks
Pulled a 7800lb pull behind from south texas to kansas with my 23. Only thing i suggest is get one with the max towing package. Averaged 14.5 mpg, and would still run 75mph with no issues.
Just once, for a change, I'd love to hear someone mention the payload rating on these 3.0 duramax trucks. Everyone is obsessed with towing numbers, but I couldn't care less about towing. I need payload!
Been buying things that appreciate that can be claimed for depreciation versus depreciating purchase that I can depreciate. Life is chess my friend, not checkers
Newer 5.0 coyote and 2.7 Ecoboost also use a belt for the oil pump. And oddly enough, Ford does not even list a replacement/inspection interval for them. At least GM recommends an inspection and/or replace @ 200k.
Love seeing some new content from you especially regarding this 3.0 platform. That camera though, oof….. 😂
Rough, amateur status over here 😂

No fuel additive clogs every def system not needed
How many total miles?

I drive a '23 AT4 with the LZO and absolutely love that truck. That 3.0 is such a fun engine. Love all the torque and the great fuel mileage.
What about the maintenance? I’ve heard it costs way more for things like oil filters ect?
most dealerships offer a lifetime oil change on these for 1000 extra which in my opinion is worth the price you change oil every 7000 miles
@@jasonbrown9675my like change price at the dealer was $100

Glad you're posting again just getting caught up 🎉
I have the new body style at4 version with the 3.0.. traded a 6.2 trailboss for it. No regrets
Why so? Very curious
Always a great day when Jack uploads a video!! Appreciate the content my friend!
We need more videos of that peach colored old school Chevy Truck in the back. 🔥
I have a 2021 chevy silverado 3.0. Love it. Only issue was a glow plug. I have 69k and had it for 3 years. As for towing, great for my 6k camper.
Our company had 5 of the gmc 3.0 duramax’s all of them traded in or sold. All of them started having issues around 70k

On your key fab, as long as it has the feature and is turned on you can unlock twice and hold and all windows will roll down.

Hey Jack what are the business owner benefits?
Great question. I'd sure like to know that as well.
@@JohnFichtnercheck description
What leveling kit do you have
Can you drive a diesel short distance daily & still benefit from it?
What was the tax incentive. Did I just overlook it in the video
Check the description
So what was the tax strategy it qualified for
Video starts in 8:30
LoL....Nice
Any cold start issues in winter with 3L duramax?
They changed the power button and volume on the 24 with the colom shifter
Hey jack! What’s the wheel and tire setup?? as well as the lift?
Skip to 3:00 if you want to hear about the truck. Correction 4:00
Nice Video !!! .. What size of mags and tire do you have looks great!!
I’m in the market for the 3.0. You mentioned this platform has done tax incentives for business owners. Would you mind elaborating on that?
So I missed the part about the buisness owner benefits… or was it too shaky. Love the video and looks like a great truck.
Hey jack. What is the color called of your interior walls in your shop? Trying to find that silver color
Pick up a small hand-held gimble. It'll remove virtually all of the shakes.
love the vid, but started getting a headache from the shaking. i ended up just looking at stuff on the internet on another tab and listened to this video just for the audio.
Hey man! Love the truck..
What lift were you running on it? If you don’t mind me asking
I've truly have missed you uploading videos What happen to DDG34 Video winner keep up the great work Jack
I have a 2010 P071 Crown Vitoria.
It can do most everything your truck can do, only worse.
But it is paid for.
Enjoyed the video
Wow. Cool story.
Currently have a 2022 LM2, I th oh got the max tow is 9300, how are you getting 15k? LZO should be 13k I think…
Absolutely love my LM2 Duramax Silverado!
Same here 30mpg is very nice
I’ve loved mine no real issues 120k miles in
I love my GMC 3.0 duramax 30 +more mile a gallon
What size wheel you have and tire? I have an exact same truck but it’s a 2024. Thanks sik truck
Love love my 24 Denali Ultimate with the 3. liter, the super cruise is the best available so far but I see a Ram charger in the future maybe.
You didn’t talk about the tax part?? Is it over 6k?
Peep the description!
Hey Jack, love the feedback and information, I just had a question for someone who is young and has no kids I am torn between this truck or the 2500 because I wanna be able to tow comfortably with no worries I just can’t decide between the 2
Unless you're towing heavy equipment everyday, get the 3.0. My friend tows a massive RV with his 3.0 with ease
I wonder about the longevity of the 6 cylinder turbo vs the 8 cylinder...
I wish i could have gotten a suburban with the 3.0 diesel for my wife but the timing didnt workout. Maybe one day she can get an upgrade. Lol.
Do you have to add DEF in these also?
Yes
My coworker has had 2 of them. Both he had to lemon law. Probably bad luck but GM just doesn’t completely redesign an engine for no reason.
Beautiful truck!! What’s the lift size and wheel setup on this truck if you don’t mind asking
I wish I could afford to have a daily LZO and keep my 3500 CTD for real work.
My 17 silverado has the remote window down on the key fob pretty cool but if they only went up too 😂
