I have a 2017 GMC Sierra 2500HD Denali with gas engine & 6L90 transmission. Recently, error reading of PO740/PO741 indicating Torque Converter problem. After dealer opened pan to find metal fragments, they "suspected" early stages of transmission failure & wanted $6,500 for new transmission (cost me over $500 for "diagnostics"). I had them put new fluid in so I could drive it to a local transmission shop. There was no longer an error indicated & local transmission shop could not see any problems. They recommended I continue driving & watch for changes or high RPMs. So far so good, but I checked new prices for same vehicle & they are $90,000+!! The sticker price on mine was $51,000 in 2017. I understand increases, but WTF!!! I researched the PO740 error code & found out A LOT of GM vehicles with the 6L90 are having A LOT of problems! We receive the Legacy discount, which seems to be less than 2017. I've always owned GM vehicles, but now I will seek alternatives in the future. GM seems to be producing cheaper components, not caring about obvious problems & then, jacking up the price!
I bought a used GMC Sierra 2500 in 2018 with 28,000 on it. Truck has been solid. I bought it for $32,000 a good deal. They are freaking crazy if they think I am going to buy a truck for the price of almost a crap house
The torque converter is failing. It’s a known issue. Don’t be cheap…have torque converter replaced with a billet torque converter. When that torque converter fails bad enough, you’re gonna have to replace the trans, torque converter, transmission lines, and transmission cooler. My 2015 Silverado 2500HD 6.0/6L90E threw those same codes and my trans temps went above what they normally ran. Had new converter installed and had shop beef up my transmission while they had it out. My truck had 40,000 miles on it at the time…which was last fall (Sept 2023).
I just bought a 2024 Silverado , I got the 100k extended warranty . So far I really like it . A few of the guys at the dealer really wanted my old truck . I told them no chance . I have a 2003 silverado 5.3 LS trim with over 300k miles . I have a tune on the engine and the transmission since 2007 when I paid it off . She's still spicy . I bought it new for just over 22k and gave it maintenance love . 80,000 mi ago I rebuilt the transmission with all heavy duty upgrades from the five pinion planet to the 13 vein pump and everything in between . I added in a Yukon differential with a 4:10 gear and new pair of upgraded springs . Went through the motor redid the timing chain head gaskets water pump alternator starter all sensors the throttle body coil pcks and bought some new fuel injectors from holley . I replaced both heads with upgraded factory 706 heads since one had the self cleaning steam feature because of a tiny micro crack . It hardly used any coolant and didn't affect the way the truck ran . It uses 1/4 qt of oil on a 5k change . The air conditioning still blows cold . Since I live in Florida it's not rusty and it still looks good although I have driven the clear coat off of most of the hood and half of the roof. I'm getting a new headliner captain's chairs and carpet for it . If the new one breaks down at least I can drag it to the shop with the old one so they can fix it . 😁
I had an 03 Silverado SS, blue. Loved that truck, it was pretty quick for its time. I now have a 2020 Silverado RST and the seats are super hard. I miss those big old comfy Chevy seats.
Purchased 2024 Silverado 1500 RST two months ago. The straight six diesel has loads of power and average 28 MPG. Not interested in all the tech but, I bought the truck for my wife as a daily driver. Nice truck!
So tired of people complaining about the interior. Had a 2015 Silverado and I loved it. You want giant bright iPad touchscreens and touch everything? Go jack up a Tesla model Y. I want functional and dependable. I would buy another one.
Ya I had a 15 and the interior was fine. Have 23 custom now that doesn't have the updated interior but it's still nice. More car people are buying trucks now and want fancier interiors.
I have a 2024 Silverado Ltz 2500 , with the new 6.6 liter gas engine. It’s back to the dealer with bad lifters and the crank . 3,000 miles on it. I was so disappointed. We need American parts back.
All in all, when the pluses and minuses are added up in this video. Chevy, Ford and Ram turn out to be nearly equal. However, since "Motor Future" is too cheap to give us a human narrator but instead uses a horrible fake computer voice, it is clear that "Motor Future" is too cheap to do the research needed to give us well researched content.

Is it still possible to buy a truck that is just a truck (for work). I don’t need auto cruise or GPS etc, just need 4x4 and a/c and the towing capacity for my work trailer. P.S. don’t want to make house payments for a truck.
Totally agree I just got a 2024 Sierra 1500 SLT X31 No parking sensor No 360 view cameras No bose system No sunroof No options at all and i love it. I feel like all those options are for people with no common sense. (If they need all those safety features they probably shouldn’t be driving at all)
@davestewart2067 yup Dave I agree I don't even think you can any stick shifts in pick ups I think there all automatic now nobody wants to shift anymore
Lovin’ my 2024 Custom Trail Boss. “I’m the king of the road”. It was a stretch to buy but so far no complaints except one: the truck is too tall for me to wash a portion of roof and hood. I’m hoping I can figure out a means to reach those portions so I can ceramic coat the entire truck.

I just bought my new 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT with the 3.0 Diesel Duramax. I get just little over 25.5 MPG on the highway doing about 80 mph most of the way. It's great and with the deal I got I'm happy as hell. MSRP $61, 280 and walked out the door with all fees and tax for $54,165 after rebates. Tell me that you can't get a good deal with Chevy and I'll call you a liar! My truck is the best car/truck purchase I've ever made in 35 years so buying a new car or truck!
@@elvisortiz358 I got a 2024 Silverado 1500 LT, Crew Cab, Standard Bed 6'.6", 4WD, 3.0 Duramax Diesel, Summit White, Convenience Package II, Protection Package, Safety Package with HD Surround Vision. There's not another one in Chevy's inventory like this one available. You would have to upgrade to a LTZ or High Country and pay another 8K, if I'm not mistaken. I thank God for this deal. If I can answer a question, I will.
I have this same Chevy but the 5.3 all the bells and whistles you mentioned! I got mine with a 6” uplift and 35s on 20” Fuels. I love this truck, prolly overpaid a tad compared to my 2020 Trail Boss but I love the 10 speed and cameras.
@@phillipbaker2082 I've thought about it but I think I would stand to lose a lot of money due to depreciation. I guess I don't dislike it enough to pay more money to get back into a Silverado.
@@andysamsung3140 understand, it could be an upside down situation for you. Just keep it for a few years and than maybe something will work out for you to get back into the truck you want.
I have had 4 silverados and an old custom delux Chevy and found them to be dependable wirk horses. the last three was 2013 Z71, 2019 crew cab Z71 and I just purchased a 2024 LT 4x4. I have not had any problems with any of the last three. I would not hesitate to purchase more in the future. Common sense maintenance and they will run forever.
I own a RWD 2021 Silverado with the 3.0 inline 6 Duramax and 10 speed transmission. It's rated at 33mpg highway and can easily achieve that at 70mph. It has the same torque (460), as the top dog 6.2 V8; only it reaches that 460 point at only 1500 rpm. That low end torque, and only 277 HP will stay with a Ram 5.7 hemi in the 0-60 stoplight run. I have nothing but praise for the vehicle. I don't care about the latest interiors and gadgets. Performance and efficiency rule the day!
owned chevy trucks for a long time..recently traded my 2018 silverado crewcab for 2023 silverado crewcab...new one may have additional electronic s, but does not have the "cigarette lighter"--HUGE mistake by GM...also, the "AUTO STOP" is annoying as hell..!!! it can be disabled after you start the vehicle...not having a key is also a HUGE thumbs down...the 2018 had the best average miles driven + the current miles per gallon...best I got on the 2018 was 35.5 miles per gallon (highway)...5.3v8 engine is best by far.
I've always been a G.M. guy until now, and coming to that realization was difficult. I purchased a brand new '22 GMC 2500 quad cab SLT, 6.6 gas. I really loved that truck until the transmission started acting up after a couple hundred miles (super hard first to second shift, and shuddering.) I took the truck to the dealership multiple times until 13,000 miles, and i demand they look at it. They basically thought i was full of s**t until they pulled the transmission pan, and found metal fragments. They basically rebuilt the transmission free of charge which mind you took 30 days. Shortly after receiving the truck with transmission rebuilt it started to do what it was doing before. The Service Manager's response to this was to attempt to "blow up" the transmission to get a completely new one from G.M. Took the loss on a truck with 15,000 miles on it. I then purchased a 2023 Silverado RST quad cab. At 6100 miles the new 10 speed is shuddering. My question is, can they even build a reliable transmission any more? I guess it'll be a Dodge next time.
@adamhutto1660 Ford seems to be having good luck with there's. I planned on getting the extended warranty for piece of mind on the Toyota . Toyotas warranty is priced fairly and it comes with scheduled msintance as well . GM warranties are expensive compared to Toyota , atleast here in Canada
@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806 I wasn't aware of that issue . I know toyota had issues in the 2022 model tundra's but thought they had fixed those issues . Thanks for the information
Bought a 2024 Silverado w/3.0 Duramax and crankshaft issue of too much play at 5000 miles. Thinking of switching to Ford Powerstroke F250. Guy at truck rental place said nothing but problems with new chevys and rams but newer powerstrokes have been solid.
I drive a large variety of vehicles and currently own a 24 1500 and a 24 2500 silverado ,with no complaints. This bias narrator isn't educated about the topic he picked for discussion And did not do research to support his blog
Had 2021 1500 and had zero issues, upgraded to the 2024 2500 6.6 gas and my radio doesnt work 85% of the time it just doesnt turn on; wipers stop occasionally upright while in use and 4x4 didnt work and now the transmissions is leaking all over my driveway and you have to make an appointment for a visual inspecttion(no touch) to then have warranty cover the part being ordered and then wait 2-3weeks for that part to come in to then make another appointment(2-3 weeks) to finally get the truck serviced and lets not forget the best part is they dont even have a dipstick to check the fluid level. Unless you crawl under while its level and fill the little fill hole on the side of the transmission untill it spills out all over to know if its got fluid(steer clear)
I am wanting to buy a new HD truck, but cannot decide what to buy. I hear horror stories about all three of them. It’s like pick your poison. I just want a reliable truck I won’t regret buying, and I just don’t know which to buy. I would appreciate honest opinions on which one would I not regret? Because it seems to be bad no matter which way you go.
Asking for opinions on youtube? Please. Everyone is the best mechanic, everyone has their own opinions and everyone will tell you horror stories about the brands they don't like. Ask a few people you know - but asking strangers on youtube? Shit, just read some of the moronic comments from assholes on here who think they know-it-all. Grow a pair of balls and make a decision.
I just traded in my 2014 RAM 1500 for a 2024 1500 RST 5.3 V8 4 days ago. Although I was sad to see her go, I am so far liking my new Chevy! My Ram had just got 100k miles, and ended up having a tic that got louder. Ended up being the lifter on the cam shaft. I decided to let her go instead of repair. Got the 100k/10year extended warranty. Took me almost 10 years to put 100k on the last one, so I hope I'm good. Different dealers tried selling me on the 4 cylinder. Sorry. I may be a girl, but I know a few things. Lol. 4 cylinders do NOT belong in full sized trucks! I want a Kodiak someday, but for now, this one will do just fine!
2024 Chevy 2500 HD Duramax LTZ here. NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS! Limp mode and dashboard lights at 200 miles. Happened several times after. Software update from dealer, hard shifting. 2200 miles, transmission leaking. This model year is a LEMON! DO NOT BUY! This thing has and MSRP of $87K! The dealer can give 2 craps about it.......The worst purchase of my life
@@joshdavila87 Thanks for asking. It has been to the dealership 2 more times for the same issue. It is still leaking, not heavily, but still leaking. I have grown tired of the almost part-time job of dealing with this issue. The last visit said the leak was residue. It wasn't, as the problem is still there. Needing to escalate to legal action. I have given them all the attempts to fix becuase I really like this truck otherwise. I was assigned a GM rep that hasn't done much / anything. GM can care less about the issue. Sad. Customers with lemons are left without help it seem unless a legal route.
@@fit4ya1975 They know I contacted corporate and had a rep assigned. That rep was worthless and did very little. That Corp. Rep. was overworked and probably about to quit. The dealership could careless about it. No one cared about it. A repair was performed, leaking continues and only recource now is legal. Shame! GM sucks. Horrible experience to be left without help from the brand to solve the problem. That is how things are now. Transmission shifts horrribly by the way.
I have owned three Silverados over the last twenty years with a Dodge in between. Put over 120000 miles on each Silverado. No problems. The dodge went through three motors in the first 18000 miles.
I will never ever touch Ford. RAM 1500, #1 and GMC, 2. Yes, none is perfect, but Ford is quantity not quality. My bud owns 22 High Country and loves it. NO ISSUES.
Brand new 2024 trail boss and when the automatic head lights came in the entire instrument cluster and touch screen went dim. Has t resolved itself. Can't see any of the instruments
@@Kwall4life You can say that about 80% of the semi-trucks on the road as well as the lifters that may fail in a V8. If your fuel pump, fuel injector, radiator, alternator, etc. fail you have the same issue. Where does that mindset end?
GM’s current 2.7HO engine is their most reliable engine, which is why they upped the basic warranty from 5 year 60k miles to 5yr/100k miles.. It’s very reliable. Not an easy sale, when you’ve lived your life wt mainly V8’s, believe me I know. With 430 ft/lbs of torque, my ‘22 pulls hard off the line and tows my 7000lb camper amazingly.
Just vought a brand new 2023 LT Silverado 3 weeks ago. Has the new interior and big infotainment setup. Truck is beautiful inside. 2.7L 4 Cyl actually has more torque than Ford v6 model. Also no other brand has the multi flex tailgate that I have. You left out some key information. RAM has that "eTorque" on their V6 adn the HEMI. They're having massive issues with them. Almost bought a RAM the day before I bought my Silverado. Dealer even let me take it home overnight. RAM did away with the alternator and went to a generator to charge the 48V battery pack. This is purely for fuel economy and emissions. I have a friend that's been a RAM master tech for years. Lots of eTorque failures and 2-3 months on backorder for replacement. Also, it's only covered for 36k miles. Yep, not covered under powertrain. RESEARCH IT. Also the RAM I test drove had a really dinky 4" screen for the radio. No remote start either, for a $45,000 truck? Scored my 23 silverado on year end clearance. Sticker was $56,000....I paid $43,600 with 100k mile warrnaty. Drive the 4 cyl in the silverado, its a very good motor. Traded my 2019 2.7 in for the 2023.
I leased a Ford 150 and didn't have it for 6 months .It drove like a piece of junk Bought a 2023 Chevy and love it The chevy drives like a car .Very smooth and handles great
Wonder if they fixed the AC problem my because my 2014 Silverado it went out 3 times and I finally just sold it because I was tired of dumping money into something that kept breaking
I owned a 3.5L F150 and hated it, had it a year and traded it in for a GMC with 5.3L Vortec...MPGs are about the same but better performance. I will say I miss the power lift gate on the F150, my denali doesn't have it : /
I've never own a ford passed the warranty period. 16 Mustang GT PP. transmission started to howl. 6.0 super duty. Lemon law suit buy back. The wife really likes the 2 door Bronco. Even now that ford dealers aren't getting markups I said no way. I pointed her to all of the quality issues plus our own history with ford and the crappy dealerships in the small city we live in. San Diego btw. Lol Good luck with ford in an actual small city or county. 😂
I have a new '23 silvy custom with the 2.7 turbo. I can't get more than 19mpg and I baby it, 5,100 miles. Now the transmission, after sitting overnight, when I drive first to second takes as much time to shift while you just read that. I don't think it's normal. The dealer will just tell me to hump sand if I take it in. OTHERWISE it's a pretty peppy truck.
I have a 2023 Silverado LT 2.7T and I'd say I average about 19 miles per gallon. I've seen it as high as 26 miles per gallon when trips are at lower speeds. On the highway I think about 19-21. When pulling a 1k pound enclosed cargo trailer I get about 14 miles gallon, but the trailer is not aerodynamic at all. When pulling a ~2.2k pound boat, I seem to get around 12 miles to the gallon. I love my truck.
I had the 2022 silverado Lt but give me stress to much promblem get clunking in the back now get Vibration if 60mph if you press more acceleration more vibration and noisy😢
@@Boobtube.You guys are wrong . The narrator clearly says that the lower trims didn't get updated interior. I have a 23 custom and it has the older interior. The 24s are the same. Wts and customs.
Traded in my 2021 Trail Boss for a 2024 and regret it . The sound system was better ,it was easier to use ,my cup holders are on the opposite side of console now because of that stupid shifter (like the column better) Digital crap instead of analog gauges. Radio doesn't play my music in order mixes my songs up,not to mention gets way worse gas mileage and alot of other stuff I can mention but won't. My 21 Trail Boss was my most favorite truck I have ever owned
@@indy0365 Nobody seems to acknowledge the fact that Ford sells fleet trucks to hundreds of thousands of municipalities at near cost to keep the "Ford trucks sold" numbers where they are. It's their loss leader - just like Costco's $1 hotdogs...
So now when mine gets to about 175 deg. It tells me the engine is running hot, and the a/c is turned off. Then it shuts off my temp gauge. This is by far the dumbest thing i have ever seen on any vehicle. Well, other than the afm lifters.
No issues at all with my 2024 Silverado. Things aren’t perfect? Show me a vehicle that is. Let’s not forget this is a Truck not a Cadillac. The turbo 4 is awesome.
I had to replace my truck this past year due to a Fentanyl user who crossed into my lane. I’ve had Ford, Chevy, and Dodge in the past but due to the big 3 bowing to all the government regulations I ended up going Toyota this time. And yes I know Toyota has also bowed starting with the 2022 Tundra and 2024 Tacoma. But at least they held off a while. The AFM in Chevys and Dodges similar systems killed this brands for me. Friends spending 5k to rebuild the top end of their engines with less than 50k on the OD.
The new touch screen radio is absolute garbage. Controls are slow and it stops putting out sound at random times. I have to reboot in safe mode every few days.
Bought my first full sized truck,a 2022 Silverado with the 420hp 6.2 liter engine. Loved the truck until...24,000 miles, at that point it needed a new engine. GM is the second car manufacturer to make a disposable engine, the first manufacturer was the $3500 Yugo!They currently have a class action lawsuit for customers with the same issues you can google it.They have ordered a new engine for me but it could be defective also.I don't trust this manufacturer anymore, they make beautiful junk.
Do not disable the autostop/start. It is tied into the starter and if you keep it off every time you drive it will power out and you will not be able to start it. I just gave a guy a jumped and when I saw him later he told me about it as the dealer told him. Another useless thing because of Government regulations
Have you seen the recalls and problems with the fords. 😂😂 i can tune my 6.2 and it will toast anything but Trx and i get 16/17 city 22/24 on hwy with my High country

Tell me that you can't get a good deal with Chevy and I'll call you a liar! My truck is the best car/truck purchase I've ever made in 35 years so buying a new car or truck!
I need to ask questions brother
@@elvisortiz358 What's up?
@@elvisortiz358 I got a 2024 Silverado 1500 LT, Crew Cab, Standard Bed 6'.6",
4WD, 3.0 Duramax Diesel, Summit White, Convenience Package II, Protection Package, Safety Package with HD Surround Vision. There's not another one in Chevy's inventory like this one available. You would have to upgrade to a LTZ or High Country and pay another 8K, if I'm not mistaken. I thank God for this deal. If I can answer a question, I will.
I have this same Chevy but the 5.3 all the bells and whistles you mentioned! I got mine with a 6” uplift and 35s on 20” Fuels. I love this truck, prolly overpaid a tad compared to my 2020 Trail Boss but I love the 10 speed and cameras.
I just bought a 2024 Silverado 2500hd today. Love it so far. Love the looks.
I traded a 2020 Silverado LTZ for a 2023 Lariat and I totally regret it
Is there anyway possible you can go back to an LTZ? I think Chevy has some deals going right now.
Do you like the ford better?
Thats FORD
@@phillipbaker2082 I've thought about it but I think I would stand to lose a lot of money due to depreciation. I guess I don't dislike it enough to pay more money to get back into a Silverado.
@@andysamsung3140 understand, it could be an upside down situation for you. Just keep it for a few years and than maybe something will work out for you to get back into the truck you want.
I have had 4 silverados and an old custom delux Chevy and found them to be dependable wirk horses. the last three was 2013 Z71, 2019 crew cab Z71 and I just purchased a 2024 LT 4x4. I have not had any problems with any of the last three. I would not hesitate to purchase more in the future. Common sense maintenance and they will run forever.
I own a RWD 2021 Silverado with the 3.0 inline 6 Duramax and 10 speed transmission. It's rated at 33mpg highway and can easily achieve that at 70mph. It has the same torque (460), as the top dog 6.2 V8; only it reaches that 460 point at only 1500 rpm. That low end torque, and only 277 HP will stay with a Ram 5.7 hemi in the 0-60 stoplight run. I have nothing but praise for the vehicle. I don't care about the latest interiors and gadgets. Performance and efficiency rule the day!
I got a 2024 with the LZ0, LT Trailboss and i absolutely love this truck. No regrets
owned chevy trucks for a long time..recently traded my 2018 silverado crewcab for 2023 silverado crewcab...new one may have additional electronic s, but does not have the "cigarette lighter"--HUGE mistake by GM...also, the "AUTO STOP" is annoying as hell..!!! it can be disabled after you start the vehicle...not having a key is also a HUGE thumbs down...the 2018 had the best average miles driven + the current miles per gallon...best I got on the 2018 was 35.5 miles per gallon (highway)...5.3v8 engine is best by far.
I have a 2020 RST crew cab. I would kept the 18 all day. CD player, bigger seats, to name a few.
I've always been a G.M. guy until now, and coming to that realization was difficult. I purchased a brand new '22 GMC 2500 quad cab SLT, 6.6 gas. I really loved that truck until the transmission started acting up after a couple hundred miles (super hard first to second shift, and shuddering.) I took the truck to the dealership multiple times until 13,000 miles, and i demand they look at it. They basically thought i was full of s**t until they pulled the transmission pan, and found metal fragments. They basically rebuilt the transmission free of charge which mind you took 30 days. Shortly after receiving the truck with transmission rebuilt it started to do what it was doing before. The Service Manager's response to this was to attempt to "blow up" the transmission to get a completely new one from G.M. Took the loss on a truck with 15,000 miles on it. I then purchased a 2023 Silverado RST quad cab. At 6100 miles the new 10 speed is shuddering. My question is, can they even build a reliable transmission any more? I guess it'll be a Dodge next time.
Perhaps try a Toyota tundra .
I ordered mine after issues with my 2023 silverado.
GM dosen't care about its loyal customers
@@robqwertyuipp8750, that twin turbo V-6 makes me nervous.
@adamhutto1660
Ford seems to be having good luck with there's.
I planned on getting the extended warranty for piece of mind on the Toyota .
Toyotas warranty is priced fairly and it comes with scheduled msintance as well .
GM warranties are expensive compared to Toyota , atleast here in Canada
@@robqwertyuipp8750 The twin turbo has main bearing issues. Be careful about those.
@ramaswamynarayanaswamy4806
I wasn't aware of that issue .
I know toyota had issues in the 2022 model tundra's but thought they had fixed those issues .
Thanks for the information
Bought a 2024 Silverado w/3.0 Duramax and crankshaft issue of too much play at 5000 miles. Thinking of switching to Ford Powerstroke F250. Guy at truck rental place said nothing but problems with new chevys and rams but newer powerstrokes have been solid.
I drive a large variety of vehicles and currently own a 24 1500 and a 24 2500 silverado ,with no complaints. This bias narrator isn't educated about the topic he picked for discussion And did not do research to support his blog
I have one as well 2024 2500 also and love it no complaints
Sounds like you are trying to validate a bad purchase. Give it time!
No V6.
That’s not a truck.
Less than a year old truck and no complaints? I sure hope so
Had 2021 1500 and had zero issues, upgraded to the 2024 2500 6.6 gas and my radio doesnt work 85% of the time it just doesnt turn on; wipers stop occasionally upright while in use and 4x4 didnt work and now the transmissions is leaking all over my driveway and you have to make an appointment for a visual inspecttion(no touch) to then have warranty cover the part being ordered and then wait 2-3weeks for that part to come in to then make another appointment(2-3 weeks) to finally get the truck serviced and lets not forget the best part is they dont even have a dipstick to check the fluid level. Unless you crawl under while its level and fill the little fill hole on the side of the transmission untill it spills out all over to know if its got fluid(steer clear)
I love my 2024 Silverado with the 4 cylinder Turbomax engine..
I have one that's 3 years old...Great truck.
The comments make clicking on this video worthwhile!
Its amazing that no matter how much more fuel efficient they try to make trucks these days its not making much difference with mpg.
Yeah. Only making them less reliable!
I am wanting to buy a new HD truck, but cannot decide what to buy. I hear horror stories about all three of them. It’s like pick your poison. I just want a reliable truck I won’t regret buying, and I just don’t know which to buy. I would appreciate honest opinions on which one would I not regret? Because it seems to be bad no matter which way you go.
Get a Duramax. Don’t get a power stroke. Lots of reliability issues.
Asking for opinions on youtube? Please. Everyone is the best mechanic, everyone has their own opinions and everyone will tell you horror stories about the brands they don't like. Ask a few people you know - but asking strangers on youtube? Shit, just read some of the moronic comments from assholes on here who think they know-it-all. Grow a pair of balls and make a decision.
I have both Duramax and Powerstroke. Both have been solid, but I prefer the Dmax.
@@cookies7028 thanks..I’ve decided to get the GMC Sierra 2500 with the 1 ton frame.
@@dropshot5371 I am getting the Duramax..I’ve made the decision.
I just traded in my 2014 RAM 1500 for a 2024 1500 RST 5.3 V8 4 days ago. Although I was sad to see her go, I am so far liking my new Chevy! My Ram had just got 100k miles, and ended up having a tic that got louder. Ended up being the lifter on the cam shaft. I decided to let her go instead of repair. Got the 100k/10year extended warranty. Took me almost 10 years to put 100k on the last one, so I hope I'm good. Different dealers tried selling me on the 4 cylinder. Sorry. I may be a girl, but I know a few things. Lol. 4 cylinders do NOT belong in full sized trucks! I want a Kodiak someday, but for now, this one will do just fine!
I like my 2024 Z71 Texas Edition
This robot has never seen any brand of truck!
Most these issues can be addressed with tuning since GM has to much converter slip witch can prematurely cause transmission replacement
I agree about the adaptive cruse control. Mine slams on the brakes if the road changes colors or if sudden change in lighting occurs.
Yes Chevy is a little behind but compare prices for the same trims in Ford AND Ram. $10000 to $20000 more than Chevy
Nah chevys 3.0 diesel is a game changer. Ford has nothing to compete. Period.
Maybe the revised one . Had a lot of problems with the last generation@@HomesteaderJake
900000 for trx then you say compared to rivals who Ford never had nothing but trouble with Ford's
Yup -
Ram couldn’t get that gas mileage if it was being towed. Stop the madness
2024 Chevy 2500 HD Duramax LTZ here. NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS! Limp mode and dashboard lights at 200 miles. Happened several times after. Software update from dealer, hard shifting. 2200 miles, transmission leaking. This model year is a LEMON! DO NOT BUY! This thing has and MSRP of $87K! The dealer can give 2 craps about it.......The worst purchase of my life
How is this going for you now? Would like to see how this process goes for you. Looking to buy the gas 2024 2500 ltz later this year
@@joshdavila87 Thanks for asking. It has been to the dealership 2 more times for the same issue. It is still leaking, not heavily, but still leaking. I have grown tired of the almost part-time job of dealing with this issue. The last visit said the leak was residue. It wasn't, as the problem is still there. Needing to escalate to legal action. I have given them all the attempts to fix becuase I really like this truck otherwise. I was assigned a GM rep that hasn't done much / anything. GM can care less about the issue. Sad. Customers with lemons are left without help it seem unless a legal route.
@@jdscoco Tell the dealership you are contact Corporate. They don't want anything negative said about their dealership. Also did they fix the issue?
@@fit4ya1975 They know I contacted corporate and had a rep assigned. That rep was worthless and did very little. That Corp. Rep. was overworked and probably about to quit. The dealership could careless about it. No one cared about it. A repair was performed, leaking continues and only recource now is legal. Shame! GM sucks. Horrible experience to be left without help from the brand to solve the problem. That is how things are now. Transmission shifts horrribly by the way.
@@fit4ya1975that story won't scare anyone... Not even my 5 year old nephew. Corporate doesn't give two fu&#-
I have owned three Silverados over the last twenty years with a Dodge in between. Put over 120000 miles on each Silverado. No problems. The dodge went through three motors in the first 18000 miles.
I will never ever touch Ford. RAM 1500, #1 and GMC, 2. Yes, none is perfect, but Ford is quantity not quality. My bud owns 22 High Country and loves it. NO ISSUES.
Brand new 2024 trail boss and when the automatic head lights came in the entire instrument cluster and touch screen went dim. Has t resolved itself. Can't see any of the instruments
Have you tried the brightness buttons on the dash to the left of the steering wheel? I toggle my dash dim or brighter depending on how I like it...
Adjust your dimmer
Can You Imagine A 4 Cylinder In A Full Size Truck. No Thanks. 😅 4:51
Yes if your turbo conks out you have a big problem on your hands if you tow anything with your truck.
Turbo is way better you would be surprised
I know it sounds silly. I have one, I think it's a great engine.
@@Kwall4life You can say that about 80% of the semi-trucks on the road as well as the lifters that may fail in a V8. If your fuel pump, fuel injector, radiator, alternator, etc. fail you have the same issue. Where does that mindset end?
GM’s current 2.7HO engine is their most reliable engine, which is why they upped the basic warranty from 5 year 60k miles to 5yr/100k miles.. It’s very reliable. Not an easy sale, when you’ve lived your life wt mainly V8’s, believe me I know. With 430 ft/lbs of torque, my ‘22 pulls hard off the line and tows my 7000lb camper amazingly.
Just vought a brand new 2023 LT Silverado 3 weeks ago. Has the new interior and big infotainment setup. Truck is beautiful inside. 2.7L 4 Cyl actually has more torque than Ford v6 model. Also no other brand has the multi flex tailgate that I have. You left out some key information. RAM has that "eTorque" on their V6 adn the HEMI. They're having massive issues with them. Almost bought a RAM the day before I bought my Silverado. Dealer even let me take it home overnight. RAM did away with the alternator and went to a generator to charge the 48V battery pack. This is purely for fuel economy and emissions. I have a friend that's been a RAM master tech for years. Lots of eTorque failures and 2-3 months on backorder for replacement. Also, it's only covered for 36k miles. Yep, not covered under powertrain. RESEARCH IT. Also the RAM I test drove had a really dinky 4" screen for the radio. No remote start either, for a $45,000 truck?
Scored my 23 silverado on year end clearance. Sticker was $56,000....I paid $43,600 with 100k mile warrnaty. Drive the 4 cyl in the silverado, its a very good motor. Traded my 2019 2.7 in for the 2023.
they gave you 13k for your trade in? holy shiiit you should of just kept it man
@@viivcreations9161No way. He got $13 off before the trade in. That's about what they are going for around here at least.
I leased a Ford 150 and didn't have it for 6 months .It drove like a piece of junk Bought a 2023 Chevy and love it The chevy drives like a car .Very smooth and handles great
Wonder if they fixed the AC problem my because my 2014 Silverado it went out 3 times and I finally just sold it because I was tired of dumping money into something that kept breaking
I love my silverado.
I owned a 3.5L F150 and hated it, had it a year and traded it in for a GMC with 5.3L Vortec...MPGs are about the same but better performance. I will say I miss the power lift gate on the F150, my denali doesn't have it : /
Bow-Tie till the end 👍
You know the old saying; Pay more, get more.
I love my 2024
I ordered a 2024 silverado ltz, thanks for the bull
I've never own a ford passed the warranty period.

transmission started to howl.
6.0 super duty. Lemon law suit buy back. The wife really likes the 2 door Bronco. Even now that ford dealers aren't getting markups I said no way. I pointed her to all of the quality issues plus our own history with ford and the crappy dealerships in the small city we live in.
San Diego btw. Lol
Good luck with ford in an actual small city or county.

2024 Silverado LT 2.7 turbo
I’m getting 24-28mpg on highway and roughly 20mpg city
Do u like it?
I have a new '23 silvy custom with the 2.7 turbo. I can't get more than 19mpg and I baby it, 5,100 miles. Now the transmission, after sitting overnight, when I drive first to second takes as much time to shift while you just read that. I don't think it's normal. The dealer will just tell me to hump sand if I take it in. OTHERWISE it's a pretty peppy truck.
I have a 2023 Silverado LT 2.7T and I'd say I average about 19 miles per gallon. I've seen it as high as 26 miles per gallon when trips are at lower speeds. On the highway I think about 19-21. When pulling a 1k pound enclosed cargo trailer I get about 14 miles gallon, but the trailer is not aerodynamic at all. When pulling a ~2.2k pound boat, I seem to get around 12 miles to the gallon. I love my truck.
Mine has 13k miles on it a the heater is acting up. Still under warranty.
I've got the turbo 4 and get 12.5 avg and not that I drive hard I literally work 1.8 miles away
I had the 2022 silverado Lt but give me stress to much promblem get clunking in the back now get Vibration if 60mph if you press more acceleration more vibration and noisy😢
I'd be more stressed if I was your English teacher.
My 23 has updated interior what are you talking about
The Silverado has definitely stepped up their game. With the digital dash and the shifter. Looks so much more up-to-date now.
@@Boobtube.You guys are wrong . The narrator clearly says that the lower trims didn't get updated interior. I have a 23 custom and it has the older interior. The 24s are the same. Wts and customs.
I've owned Silverados all of my life and I have never had any problems with any of them. You are just a ford or ram nut and want to trash chevys
All vehicles today: over-engineered. Overly complicated. Over-priced.
Traded in my 2021 Trail Boss for a 2024 and regret it . The sound system was better ,it was easier to use ,my cup holders are on the opposite side of console now because of that stupid shifter (like the column better) Digital crap instead of analog gauges. Radio doesn't play my music in order mixes my songs up,not to mention gets way worse gas mileage and alot of other stuff I can mention but won't. My 21 Trail Boss was my most favorite truck I have ever owned
I love my new high country 👍👍💥
Not one word about GM's DVM system that is destroying these engines.
All them trucks are nice when Brand New!!!

The Silverado is the only half ton truck you can get with a diesel engine 🇺🇸
Everything about a gm product is substandard quality and way below average.
I only know one flaw.There too high priced
I have a Silverado with the 6.2 and I can average 25mpg on the highway 🤷🏼♂️
The Silverado Has Always Been The F150'S Little Step Brother And Ok For Those On A Budget.
but if you combine silvado and gmc it outsells ford
@@indy0365 Nobody seems to acknowledge the fact that Ford sells fleet trucks to hundreds of thousands of municipalities at near cost to keep the "Ford trucks sold" numbers where they are. It's their loss leader - just like Costco's $1 hotdogs...
I’ve gotten 29 mpg in my 2024 5.3 motor
*_CHEVY ENGINES ARE THE ONLY PICKUP CAPABLE OF 300 THOUSAND MILES ON NOTHING BUT OIL CHANGES!!!_*
I have a new 2024 Trailboss 6.2 and I have none of these problems.
So now when mine gets to about 175 deg. It tells me the engine is running hot, and the a/c is turned off. Then it shuts off my temp gauge. This is by far the dumbest thing i have ever seen on any vehicle. Well, other than the afm lifters.
What engine? Silverado?
@randsp3c709 5.3, but apparently it only does it from 48-58 deg ambient... the rest of the time it works. Pretty smart huh?

No issues at all with my 2024 Silverado. Things aren’t perfect? Show me a vehicle that is. Let’s not forget this is a Truck not a Cadillac. The turbo 4 is awesome.

I had to replace my truck this past year due to a Fentanyl user who crossed into my lane. I’ve had Ford, Chevy, and Dodge in the past but due to the big 3 bowing to all the government regulations I ended up going Toyota this time. And yes I know Toyota has also bowed starting with the 2022 Tundra and 2024 Tacoma. But at least they held off a while. The AFM in Chevys and Dodges similar systems killed this brands for me. Friends spending 5k to rebuild the top end of their engines with less than 50k on the OD.
My hd 2024 2500 is amazing
2024 Silverado 2500 Duramax 6.6 High Country, yes expensive but worth every penny. I really call BS on what he said, my truck is awesome.
Typical guy talking about trucks but uses it to pick up groceries and an occasional box of Huggies
That's what I use it for......
Ram does not have a “V6” oil burner. They have a “straight 6” oil burner.
The new touch screen radio is absolute garbage. Controls are slow and it stops putting out sound at random times. I have to reboot in safe mode every few days.
Bought my first full sized truck,a 2022 Silverado with the 420hp 6.2 liter engine. Loved the truck until...24,000 miles, at that point it needed a new engine. GM is the second car manufacturer to make a disposable engine, the first manufacturer was the $3500 Yugo!They currently have a class action lawsuit for customers with the same issues you can google it.They have ordered a new engine for me but it could be defective also.I don't trust this manufacturer anymore, they make beautiful junk.
Do not disable the autostop/start. It is tied into the starter and if you keep it off every time you drive it will power out and you will not be able to start it. I just gave a guy a jumped and when I saw him later he told me about it as the dealer told him. Another useless thing because of Government regulations
Yeah I didn’t really hear any issues. Chevys are the most reliable trucks you can drive.
Just honestly thinking back GM has always been a little better then Ford 🇺🇸
It sounds like the Ford or Dodge manufacturers got together to nitpick Chevy so they can get more sales
The zr2 is supercharged 😂
Nothing is perfect. Some models are better or worse than others. GM dealerships have a much better service though.
