on my 2nd 6.2 truck; i love that motor. I never owned a 5.3 truck but I have driven them. My local dealerships have 13K to 15K off right now. My 2018 GMC SLT 6.2 4x4 (max trailering package) sticker price at 57K. I got it for 43K before my trade. Im more than pleased.

I just traded in my 2015 GMC SLT 6.2 in because of the 8 speed problems. did the recall when it had about 10k miles on it. Then around 25K I brought it back in for them to look at they said there is nothing wrong with it. around 40K miles I was having torque converter shutter so I brought it to another dealer and they changed the convertor. So said that should fix my hard shifting; nope. went trade it in yesterday on a 2018 max trailering package slt premium plus 4x4. Its smooooth as silk shifting and even the motor doesn't have a delay when I press the gas. very happy so far with this one.

that figures I put a RC 2" on my 2015 and it rides like factory. thank for the input guys. The salesman is suppose to be a friend/ customer of mine. I guess hes is miss informed or hes trying to pull a fast one on me.

About to buy a new 2018 sierra, my 2015 I put a RC 2" leveling kit; spacer kit and it worked great with no issues running stock sized tires. So my salesman is telling me that in 2016 the suspension changed a bit and he is not recommend the spacers because it will cause geometry issues and squeaking noise. He is trying to get me to do a rancho kit that will cost me $750. that included the kit, install and alignment. need some input on a 2018

I had to replace my condenser on my 2015 GMC sierra yesterday. luckly I have extended warranty on my truck but I had to pay $100 deductible. Which I think with only 40,000 miles should of been covered completely by GM. I wasnt too happy about that and was hoping that my dealer would of just taken care of the $100 bucks but they didnt want to offer that. $100 bucks for a dealer would be pennies to keep the customer happy. So I might be going to another dealer on my next truck purchase.

2015 crew cab 6.2 2wd with 3.23 in town/ going to work average 14 mpg hwy driving @ 73 -75mph 23 mpg. if I stay @ 65mph i can average 25mph straight hwy. plus is has lots of power on tap. love this truck

just for reference here is mine with a RC 2" level mine was steel, pretty much level out. at first after i got it back it was still somewhat rake in the rear. but after driving for a week it leveled off.

Yeah mine does the same thing. but its not all the time. a few times i would come to a stop and it feel like someone hit me from the rear. I really dont want to send my truck in. But if i do they better give me another crew cab to drive.

Up date on my driving. on the way home yesterday the truck shifted fine and normal. no clunking (it doesn't do it all the time) This morning I decided to drive in the trailer tow mode; and i found it was smoother between shifts. Also it was staying in V4 mode longer. Like in non trailering mode it would switch back and forth constantly with stop and go driving. This morning while crusin at 45 mph it would be in V4 mode and stay around 2k rpm. Looks like the fuel mileage will be better in city driving like this. I think Im going to try trailer mode on a full tank and see if my mileage comes goes up.

ill see how it does on the way home. But its been clunking since i bought it. i have 5500 miles on it right now. ill have to check into the recall too, my dealer didn't inform me of it.

i get the same thing with my 8 speed. occasionaly I get the shudder like running over a bad road.
