Still, an Airraid CAI won’t make a .6 second difference in the 1/4. That tune was clearly a hindrance.

I do not see alot of talk on the L92 6.2. I am looking at getting an 07 Yukon Denali to pull an 18 - 20' enclosed trailer for my sons gokarts. Are the gear ratios listed on the first page good for the Yukons? I really dont want a 3/4 ton, will the the Yukon or the LTZ 6 liter Suburban handle this? I am more acclimated to the 2500 and 3500 trucks just getting tired of the high Diesel and maintence. Thanks for the help.

I have a 08 SD with the L92 and it's kick@$$! I've nevered towed with it, but street race, and won plenty!

Actually appreciate getting to read all the info. But still kicking myself as yesterday I missed a insane deal on a left over all black '11 ex-cab w/6.2. Found it online & dealer was 200+ miles away. They had put some 20" wheels on it that I wasn't impressed with, should have just shut up & sent the deposit. :banghead:

Can you start a thread " I hate my 6.2 & wish I bought a 4.8". Only kidding, will be looking for a '12 6.2 later in the year.

Get it while you can! This will be the last year for the 6.2.

 

 

Wow! If that's the case, we may be sitting on a rarer breed than we think! Could there possibly be fewer 6.2 Silverados per MY offered on the road than Corvettes of the same MY? Where would one find the production figures to confirm or repudiate that supposition?

Until I see something in writing I don't believe this.

Probably not far from the truth because the new gen truck engines will produce similar numbers while at the same time pulling down better mpg numbers as well. Wait and see is all we can do.

I doubt the legitimacy of this statement; however, if true I'm glad I got mine when I did.

Take it fwiw......http://news.pickuptr...ck-engines.html

 

 

I don't see where the 6.2L is getting discontinued.. just moved up to the HD class. They are not going to put the 7.0L in them as originally planned.

 

Heavy-duty trucks are said to receive an exclusive 6.2-liter V-8. Currently, a 6.2-liter V-8 is only available for the 2007-12 Silverado and Sierra 1500 half-tons. Light- and heavy-duty models would share a 6.0-liter V-8 that’s currently only available for 2007-2012 Silverado and Sierra HD pickups. In early planning for both large displacement V-8s, supercharging was considered as an option (similar to the 2009 Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 concept truck) for maximum power while maintaining fuel efficiency. However, supercharging has been dropped from consideration for now.

    • I agree with Tim.  As tech heavy as engines are these days, no way I’d be an early buyer of the new 6.6.  Of course, I bought my ‘26 Denali w/the 6.2 after dumping my Tundra with it’s defective 3.5 liter imploding engine disaster, so I’m a little gun-shy.  That said, my 6.2 has been rock solid.  I don’t drive it like I do my BMW Z4 M40i, but I don’t baby it either.  I got a V8 for a reason.  But I’m averaging 18 around town and 22 highway.  I have seen 24 highway as well when I wasn’t loaded up heavy.  Considering my Tundra with the twin turbo V6 only got 14.5 in town and 17 on the road, I’ll take the 6.2 all day, every day.  If I were you, I’d grab a ‘26 while you can.  Inventories are probably gonna start dropping and I’ll bet the deals will start looking sweeter as well.
    • I am curious if anyone has figured out a way to add an hard button AUX or 360 Camera switch to the center row of switches. I have a 2021 AT4, and want to split the hill decent button and add a 360 camera button so that you don't have to go into the center display and locate the camera functionality, etc...   My father's 2024 Yukon XL AT4 and it has a hard button, see below. I found this thread on the Yukons, but it seems like there may not be a part number for the 2021 sierras. https://www.gm-trucks.com/forums/topic/255339-adding-hard-button-for-camera-on-2021/ Anyone else figured this out. Seems like it would need to be a custom switch!   I am getting ready to install the auto stop/start eliminator, so would be nice to knock them out at once.     Upvote1Downvote0Go to comments
    • Looks like the entire state is burning. 😬
    • Through the years it hasn't been my typical method as I tried to drop oil on an engine that was hot from having been worked, however that was not always practical and had to fire up a unit and let it warm up reasonably well and drop the oil when I had the time to do it but am referring to not only vehicles but a variety of farm equipment and highway tractors etc. However on a vehicle where one is crawling under it and the exhaust is nearby to ones body and if wanting to pull the plug without danger of being hit with boiling hot oil or attempting to remove a HOT oil filter, its sure safer and easier to not have everything smoking hot and can remove the filter right away when under the vehicle and let it all drain. Of course its not the end of the world if a bit of oil stays in the engine that might have eventually found its way out, I like to get out as much as possible but any oil changes that take place in shops would rarely be sitting around for very long at all before the plug is thrown back in and filter slapped on and oil poured in and sent out the door quick like. There would be very little time spent ( assuming they even did it ) in starting the engine with oil to fill the filter, then waiting to verify the level on the stick. A good reason to check ones oil level shortly after a shop changed the oil on a vehicle just to make sure its correct and to look under for any oil around the drain plug or filter.
