Hey guys, Looking at getting a 6.6 gasser. 2020-2023 offer the 6L90 and 2024-2025 have the "Allison" but not Allison 10 speed. I don't have to have the latest and greatest or the fastest, just want something reliable. I had a 1500 with the 6L80 and had the typical converter issues around 100k miles. Do not want to see anything like that in the 6L90. The 10 speeds seem to have their quirks, and aren't even a true Allison, which is a disappointment. Basically, a 6 speed that has been around for years (6L90) or a newer updated trans that has not been out long enough to show reliability (10L1000). Thoughts?

Does anyone run E15 88 octane gas on a regular basis? I know it is at stations in MN, not sure how widespread it is, but it's a 15% ethanol blend (vs 10% normal) and is a little bit cheaper. It says its OK for all vehicles and trucks 2001 or newer. Just wondering if anyone runs it on a regular basis or has evaluated the mileage they get with it vs other gas options. http://mnfuels.com/e15.cfm -
Hello all, ive recently bought a new to me single owner 2014 gmc sierra 4.3 4x4 double cab with 43,000 miles on it. It has flex fuel standard and was wondering wether or not i should run e85. It is available local and pretty cheap, but ive heard that if the truck has ran gas most of its life the e85 would cleanse the deposits and possibly clog the fuel lines or fuel pump. Should it be safe to switch over to e85 ? Or could i just start running 89 since ive also read that its more beneficial running 89 or 93 over 87 due to detonation -

I have 2014 Silverado and went to the gas station one morning and out of nowhere started smelling gas inside of the truck. Long story short, went to look underneath truck and had a 3x3 ft size puddle of fuel underneath truck on ground. Looked to see where it was coming from and looks like it’s coming from back side of motor. Can anyone help or recommend any action to take from this? -

I started my Silverado to check trailer lights and signals. Got distracted. Went in and laid down. I noticed an exhaust smell, but i was parked next to a semi, & dismissed it as from him. I woke to my rv shaking & jumped up and ran out, realizing 6 hours later it was still running!! Next morning I walked for 3 gallons of gas. It will not start. Tried the prime thing by turning the key on & off 3 times. Waited an hour tried again, and again. Nothing. I am moving an Rv 100 miles and the back end is riding low. Do i just need more gas? This truck is NEVER below.a quarter tank. I guess Ill staft walking now, in case my fuel intake from the tank is missing that 3 gallons. But if not that? Then whats my next move? This was an overnight spot and Ive recieved a warning to move already! We wont goninto i lost my phone, wore my shirt insideout AND BACKWARDS all the way there & back for gas! & lost a $20! All b4 8am today! -
Hey All, Just curious what type gas so you all use for these trucks? I'm running 89 but I didn't know if these trucks perform better with one type over the other, any added performance or mpg boost with one? I want to see if I'm wasting the little extra I pay for 89 if 87 is the same thing. -
I’m really debating on punching out my cat and running a straight pipe through it. My truck puffs out a cloud of white smoke when I dump it and I can tell a loss of power. Has anyone straight piped a 6.0? What are the pros and cons of doing it on a 2006 I’ve always done it to my older pickups but I’m not sure how it will affect this one
