66,000 on my 2022 LTD Silverado 5.3, Mobil 1 every 5000 miles. Had trans flush at dealer at 60,000. Engine uses about a half quart every 3500 miles, but other than that no issues!

The 3.0 diesels offer 3:72 gears with the Max Tow package, so those should be available for your trail boss? You probably have the standard 3:23's currently and those with taller/heavy tires probably are not to snappy. Tuning the 3:73's is something that has to be addressed to accommodate the transmission and other rpm based functions of the ECU. Not sure if anyone has accomplished this yet?

I have tested this old style 20" rim (2017 Silverado) on my new 2022LTD. No clearance problems on front or rear. They will need the newer 433MHz TPMS sensors to sync with the newer trucks. These were the "chrome finish" rims that lasted until 2 days after the 3yr 36k bumper to bumper warranty and then flaked off. Found a local powder coating company who did these for me. $125/wheel sandblast and powder coat. Flattop

I have a 2022 Silverado LTD RST 4X4 with the 5.3 and the 8 speed. Its by far the best shifting automatic transmission I have ever owned. And I have owned about 13 new GM trucks in the last 25 years.(All automatics) I have 20,000 on it now and have Zero problems with anything on this truck. It has the Max Tow package that includes the 3:42 gears. This thing rips through the gears and has a lot of get up and go for a heavy truck. Driving on the NYS Thruway, driving conservatively, it gets 20mpg!!

11000 miles on my 2022 LTD Silverado 5.3 and not a single problem yet! I am changing the oil w/ mobil 1 every 5k, not going by OLM. My Last 2017 silverado went by OLM with mobil 1 and had a lifter failure at 92,000 miles. It was one of the standard lifters, not one of the AFM lifters.

I love the mirrors, but this is my second NHT/max tow truck, so i am used to them. My 2017Silverado had the older version towing mirrors and max tow package. When hauling the camper they are a necessity.

yes according to the build sheet it has DFM. It has been very transparent so far.

Hi Folks, I picked up this 2022 LTD ( limited, I guess the last of the 2021 parts) RST 1500 on November 4th. It was a truck I ordered in August. 5.3, 8 speed 4X4. Crew Cab Short box. I was told it would be a 2021 with no DFM, but this is what arrived at the dealer. After the test drive, I was hooked. I did get the dealer to throw in a 5 year 120k powertrain warranty to calm my fears of the dreaded DFM and all of its issues. Well I am happy to report that this thing is Awesome!! I had many reservations on this model, with all the 8 speed issues, rear window leaks & of course the DFM lifter issues. I have about 2200 miles on the truck to date and its been flawless! It has the NHT package (MaxTow) and with the 3:42 gears the thing really runs great. The 8 speed is very crisp, shifts thru the first 5 gears up in the 3000-3400 range and really makes this thing fun to drive! Fit and finish is very good, getting around 16.5 mpg average with our terrible NY winter blend fuel. One thing I miss from my 2017 silverado is the text notification/display. Flattop

They look like American Racing rims, but try looking @ tirerack.com and go to the rim section and you may find a match. Load your specific truck/color and it will display the rims you select on the truck to give you a good visual.

Is this new noise law specific to NY and Manhattan counties only?

Thanks, I just figured out the carmax site. It had info loaded from months ago when I was trying to sell another car an it kept saying I need to schedule an in person inspection. Now it loaded the 2017 vin and I just got an offer of $18,400. Not to bad i guess, just drop it off and pick up a check, no typical private party issues.

No, I have not talked to the local dealers yet. I figured with these high miles, they would only send it to auction.

Here is the 2017 and the new truck

Hi Folks, I just picked up my new 2022 LTD Silverado and now will be selling my 2017 Silverado. Just trying to get some opinions on what to expect from a Carmax type dealer? The 2017 is a double cab LT with the Max Tow package (3:73) gears ect. It has a lot of highway miles, 148,****** at this point. Overall its still in really good shape, no rust dents or accidents. I bought it new. (the cam and lifters were replaced by the dealer @ 92K, thanks to extended warranty). Most everything except rotors and pads are original. From what I heard from a few local mechanics, the transmission is the ticking time bomb. He has replaced (2) 2016 silverado transmissions recently, both right around 150K!! KBB says around $16,800 in good condition for a trade in or wholesale. Is this correct in today's crazy used car pricing scheme? Thanks, Flattop

That's the kind of mileage we should all expect from one of these transmissions!
