@@bobbythomas6520 GM got saved by the Government 😂. Mopar and GM are the worst car brands to buy. Do your research before you go typing on your keep-board. Have a good one
@@coreymurphy2711 personal preference. I’ve owned fords all my life for towing, made the change a couple years ago with the 2500 and I’ve never been as impressed by a ford.
If you’re going to compare trucks you should’ve at least compared the Ford to the Chevy with a fully loaded F250 with the 6.7 HO diesel or a work truck from Chevy. They’re objectively very different trucks with different engines and trims.
Ford super dutys are no longer considered good trucks by many contractors. The last few models dissapointed many in the industry. We stick to reliable duramax power for reliability. Diesel or not ford is hated for a reason.
There his a hitch sleeve under the backseat so you can use a smaller hitch, Exhaust brake will decelerate more if you tap the brake when going down a hill versus just letting off of the gas pedal. I have this exact truck and pull a toy hauler with a Razor in it and it pulls without any issues.
I have the Custom with the gasser & a 6 speed. NO NEED FOR A DIESEL IN 2500, towing is the same for gas & diesel in 2500.. Now the 3500 & Dually with a diesel if you're pulling more than 12,000 lbs often a diesel in 3500 makes more sense. I hauled over 10,000 lbs bumper pull plus dump trailer around 4,000 lbs at sea-level here on Vancouver island with "0" issues and I do it weekly. I just wish they had a bigger seat with lumbar support on long trips for us big-fat boys 6', 4" & 290 lbs ish.
Dude....get your facts straight!!!!!!! The diesel out performs the gas in every category. You like you gasser, great but for those of us who tow more and I mean a lot more, the diesel is the way to go. I just wish they could get the numbers closer to Ford. Their numbers are inflated for sure but still.
Towing Capacity based on GVWR is different than real world. The gas cannot tow the same as the diesel. Stop reading the numbers because they're not the full story. Thats like saying the 4 Cylinder silverado 1500 can tow more than the 6.2 because the 4Cyl has a higher towing capacity.
Torsion bars man. Torsion bar-independent-front suspension makes all the difference in the Generals HD trucks. Wish the 1500s still came with it! Another note, most all HD trucks come with column shifters. Half-tons are where the weirdness begins. Impressive a vehicle that big can go 0-60 that quick!
The silver may look nice but think about it…. Grays, silvers, charcoals….all too close the color of pavement. High visibility should be the color choice of vehicles. Reds, yellows, neon green…..definitely not camouflaged colors. And a white vehicle in the northern areas with snow….?….umm….no. Just my opinion.
** Issues Warning ** I bought the new truck (2024 Chevy 2500HD LTZ Z71) last week. 308 miles on it. Went into limp mode with many lights on the dashboard while driving 35 MPH. The vehicle failed went into limp mode. Researching, this is a problem with the new 2024. High cost, with repeatable issues. Took to the dealer and service codes were many. Again, this issue is out there everywhere!!!!!!! My dealer can't fit me in or give me a loaner....WTF!
Yup……I’ve had a 2007 Duramax…blown Alison trans at 140,000. I’m driving a 2011 Duramax ….blown motor at 240,000. I couldn’t count all the diagnostic codes, engine lights, and limp modes I’ve suffered with over the years. Literally everyday when I start it I look to see if a new engine light will be on today. I pull a 10K trailer everyday….what’s the alternative?….😂😂
Have a 23 High Country but that blue interior is pretty nice! They give you a reducer Hitch with the truck.....all 3 of my 2500 HDs came with them...its a 2" sleeve that mounts in the standard 2.5" receiver....problem solved
Awesome review and camera footage! I'm a new subscriber as of this review ;) I really like that blue interior, seeing it in your video... Super classy throw-back to grandpa's blue interior, but in a 21st century kind of clean restraint... You should just include a "buy it now" button in your links lol
I no longer can afford a new domestic diesel truck. After 40,000 I said good bye. I driver a Honda Accord now and have my stuff delivered to my driveway. You know… Ive got more money today 😎
I'm a die hard Ford fan, but I fully admit Fords new heavy duty trucks aren't all that. I'll still take a F-150 over any other truck its size. But as far as 2500 and up. GMC and Chevy have taken the cake.
I drive a ram 3500 limited night edition dally but man gms me Chevy are nice trucks I need one just for The Weeknd’s I use my baby for work and towing my 5th wheel and trailers
If I see one more tv commercial or hear people on here talk about a folding or fancy tailgate I’m gonna explode! It’s a truck that hauls HEAVY loads and does does extreme work. Who cares about a stupid tailgate. Will it perform the work I need it to do daily for years is all I care about!
Diesel is best...till you go to the gas pump for a fill-up on fuel, then have to fill up the DEF tank and it is as expensive as the diesel fuel. INSANE! I will stick with a 6.2 gas engine for now. Diesel prices are unreasonable, more so than gasoline.
I tow daily in my 24. Have 6k miles on the truck and just filled the def tank for the second time last week. Truck tows avg. 0f 15k daily. Has never been unhooked from a 16k dual axle gooseneck. Funny. I don’t see the def as even a relevant comment at this point. And this is coming from owning 3 deleted diesels prior. Actually I like the def. When I’m in and out of the truck and loading equip with it running I’m not breathing in shitloads of diesel fumes like I always have been in the past. Maybe yours has issues. Or do you own one
@@brianconner4854 No, I don't own a diesel, no desire to throw money away on fuel cost. Facts are just facts. Diesel fuel, for now, cost much more. If I was towing every moment like you claim to be and I am generating revenue with it, then I would certainly consider it as a cost write off against utility of use. But, I don't drive a truck to earn money.
I’ was responding to your DEF comment. Since you obviously don’t even know what you are talking about. You don’t even own one. You are just making assumptions. My 2 DEF fills in 5k miles haven’t exactly broke the bank. When you say no desire to throw money away on fuel costs , that’ doesn’t make much sense. Diesel vs gas is a wash. You aren’t saving anything. You’re paying less at the pump and driving less miles per tank. It’s basically a wash. Just got back from a 8 hour road trip in mine and avg 22 mpg. That’s in a 1 ton dually. So it’s a wash. I was simply commenting on your ( fill the def tank up constantly comment ) because it’s not accurate
It’s also nice to have 975 ft lbs. and not 400 or whatever those gas trucks have. Just saying. Life is short. That is worth something in my book. Towing or not
@@brianconner4854 It all adds up over time, that is if you can even add. (I decided to be sarcastic like you Brian, it's what people do when they can't think of anything intelligent to say, but you know that already, right?) LOL!!!
Dude for someone that goes on and on about silly things like the emblem, you should do your research and know to show people that the back bed door goes up automatically when u press the same button or the remote…
It's kinda odd. Some goes up and some doesnt. I was certain a HC would be a standard, but the LT can be option to have a powered tailgate that goes up and down. Im not entirely sure if u can have both the mulitflex tailgate and powered tailgate together.
Ya got $90-100K laying around ?,,, Absurd priceline on these trucks, I've had 3 Silverado HDs in a row, the last one ,a 2018 LT, I'm done with GM,, bought a Tundra limited for $62K
Didn’t watch the video. Just wanted to ask who can even afford one of these anyway? As a licensed tradesman for many years, I sure as hell can’t. If all you watching this video can, good for you.
There is no such thing as a small bed on a 3/4 or 1 ton pickup truck. In the half ton pickups there are only two bed sizes...small or stander. In the HD trucks there is a stander or long bed. Come on!!! Get it right!
The horsepower on the Duramax Diesel is in fact 470, the 479 number on screen was a typo. This is why you shouldn't edit at 2 in the morning 😴

You are very detailed and i...
Love it! Great job sir.
Great review, been looking for a good one on this truck. 👍🏿 😊
Ford will never keep up with the duramax. I’ve got a 2020 ltz and I’d never go back to a ford
On what planet? Ford been leading for years. Chevy still haven't caught up

Are the seats more "cushiny" than the previous years? My 2020 Denali 2500 seats are rock hard.
The payload number means how much you can carry in the entire truck, not just the bed of the truck.

You also need a hitch that works with the multi tailgate or you will not clear your hitch.

Once it’s down, he just press the button again and it goes up automatically. I don’t have to lift it unless I bought one of a kind.
