Anyone know excactly how long the CCSB is?

 

I'm curious if it would fit in my garage.

Crew cab short box is 230" or 19.2'.

Damn, that's really long. Would be cutting it close due to my awkward garage configuration.

 

Thanks for the info.

I don't think many HD trucks like that get bought with the intent to garage them in normal facilities. If it's a fleet rig it'll sit outside and if it's someone's tow rig they probably have a barn or something to put it in.

Yeah MikeNH, that was my mistake about the 8' bed on the double cab. I really have never considered buying a double cab so I never checked them but knew you could get an extended cab with the 8' bed in years past. I should have looked before posting.

 

Mad Max, you can still buy a big block crate engine from GM. 427, 454(?), 502 & 572. The 454 is in question, but I am 100% positive the others are currently available as crate engines through GM Performance.

 

My lifetime MPG is 17 with 4382 miles on the Onstar app. Real world everyday driving nets me 18 mpg on a daily basis (about 50 miles of highway and stop/go). With a lifetime of 17 MPG mileage of 4382, then figuring in occasionally yanking my boat around, not being scared to mat the pedal at least once a week, only been on two road trips of over 200 miles, I think the 17 is actually a pretty conservative "lifetime" number. The 6.2's are very impressive. If they keep this up I can forsee them taking alot of the air out of the diesel segment, save for the exception that a few people that own a diesel actually work the truck.

 

Yes sir you are correct. The 427/430, ZZ427/480HP, 454HO/425, ZZ454/440HP all still there and a hole shot lot of others too. 502HO, ZZ502/502 Deluxe, ZZ502/502HP Base, Ram Jet 502, but the ZZ572/620HP Deluxe and the ZZ572/720R. I got wood!

Crew cab short and double cab standard are exactly the same length (229.5) and wheelbase (143.5).
