    Thank You reardiff, LDM, truckguy82

    Thank You Jim and Jim, 3/4 are great trucks for towing, that's for sure. But the other 95% not towing is also a concern with mpg. Don't believe I will tow long distance out of Michigan for now.

    Hey all, currently have a 14 gmc 5.3L been towing our Rockwood TT, 7500# DRY, 8850# GVWR. Might buy a 18 Chevrolet ltz 6.2L max tow with 90k miles. Any of you with the 6.2L towing my TT weights have Any Regrets? Anyone wish they bought a 2500hd?

    Thank You Bill, not bad at all mpg towing, Later-

    Thank You Erick, diesel would be better mpg over gas, but the .40 cents at pump more and Def fluid make the savings about equal. I sure will miss my 14 1500 gas mpg. I diffently want to keep price down, but like bucket seats, tilt wheel, cruise, stering wheel controls, back up camera, trailer tow set up, but all else with or without to buy. My 14 is paid for, so it is a good down payment. Later-

    Thank You Bill, I do feel the 6.6l gas has all the power I need for this TT.L Later-

    Wow, can't believe Dealers would not do family discount, Pathetic! If GM had balls the would shut down Dealers that Did Not Honor family & friends Discounts, what a shame! Maybe that is why Ford out sold GM by 25% last quarter, because Dealers drove Hard Working Blue Colar Americans to buy elsewhere.

    Hey all, been looking at 2500hd/3500hd, but not sure if I want to go Diesel with Few Accessories or Gas with Several Accessories, never owned Diesel. Currently have a 2014 1500sle with several accessories except leather. Pulling a 34' Rockwood 8329SS travel trailer weighing 7200lbs Dry and 8850 GVWR. Really like this trailer but who knows the future. Appreciate your thoughts, Later-

    Sweet, 550hp/490tq of 6.0L engine. That would be fun.

    2014 GMC Sierra 1500 with 2015 Rockwood 8329SS Signature Series Ultra lite 7250# Dry, GVWR 8850#.

    Hey all, tried by search but no luck. After looking at many used trucks, think I am going New with family/friends discount. Did a build online both Chevrolet and GMC and it Does Not allow Heated Seats. Did Anyone hear when Heated Seats & Steering Wheel, are going to be part of a new 6.6L gas, 2500HD, LS/SLE or LTZ/SLT, Crew Cab 4x4 New Build? Thank You-

    Agree, also with my 14 cloth seats. Most comfortable seats I ever had with GM is our 1993 Oldsmobile Silhouette mini van. It had 353,000 miles when I sold it.

    Thank You Big Whiskey, Really like the 1500 mpg, but somehow feel it is inevitable I will buy a 2500. Then, having to decide on gas or diesel.
  16. James Beyer
    Thank you gearheadesw, everyone. the 2500 is diffently a work truck, lots of power, but not good mpg. The same mpg back in 2000. Figured by now 2021, the big three would have figured out how to get 30+ mpg with these trucks, oh well. I just pull the camper around 10+ times per year, and not to far so...
  17. James Beyer
    Thank You newdude & Mike Barber. 11-15 mpg, much appreciated.
  18. James Beyer
    Thanks shakenfake, must be 6.6L instead of 6.0L Buying used, love to have 6.6L Diesel, just waaay beyond what I can afford. Funny Tim, but true. Like riding my Harley for mpg. Just courious what people are getting for mpg in a 2500hd.
  19. James Beyer
    Hey all, thinking about moving on up to 2500hd, needed for towing our travel trailer gvwr #8850. Curious as what you are getting for mpg on 2500 6.0L engines. City & highway, with and without trailer. Currently have a 14 gmc 1500, getting 16+ city, 21+ highway, backroads at 57 mpr 24+, towing trailer 6-10 mpg. Thank You, James

    Thank You 14LTZ-1LZ I will certainly look into this, Great Idea. Later-

    Thank You OffTheAir, glad to know that others have the same concerns. Guess today, because of the Cost of these trucks we feel it should last, but every mechanical item will fail at some point. Like you, just hoping that my truck will last to 200k. Take Care-

    Thank You G4Bama, no signs yet thank goodness. Great idea paying for that warranty.
  23. James Beyer
    Thank You CamGTP, Grumpy Bear, Black02Silverado. I keep up maintenance on my truck, plan on it lasting many years. Just hoping that Transmission problems are seldom, and my truck last another 100k.
  24. James Beyer
    Hey All, speaking to a neighbor today, said he was looking at buying a 14 like mine. But, he is finding one with the Transmission Replaced, because at around 100K Miles these 6 speeds Tranny and Torque Converters go out. My truck has 92K, Should I be Worried?
  25. James Beyer
    Thank You Rav3, Swathdiver, Salsa De Pina. Makes sence with Max Tow Package. I will certainly try to find one with 6.2L with 3.73 gears Max Tow Package. Later-
