I sold my 2019 GMC Sierra AT4 with the 6.2... bought a 202 Silverado with the Duramax... NIGHT and DAY difference with fuel economy... don't miss the pig at all...

 

Exact same story here.

 

The 19 6.2 was worse than my 16.   All the fuel gimmickry is total BS

Pretty much the story with all newer trucks. My 2016 Ram 1500 did really good. Switched to a 2019 Ram and it was way worse. Switched to a 2019 AT4 3 months later as the ram was a piece of ****** and kept breaking. In the city the AT4 is worse on gas due to the beefy tires, lift kit and all that bs. But on the highway it seems to be better.

Well, only 104 miles on it.  But, I absolutely love it.   From my 6.2L to this is just awesome.  I hope there's no headaches. 

I used to get 17 mpg at best in "real" driving on the 6.2-usually closer to 15.  Now with the diesel, 25 mpg today all highway at 78 mph.  That's over 40% increase in mileage.  

Had diesel on my last two SUV's and loved the performance and especially the range.  This is my first truck so I jumped in with both feet and got the Denali 6.2.  It's a beast and I'm loving it. The days of the V8 are numbered.  Turbo 4's and 6's are the norm in all German fleets now.   Fuel prices are low now and not likely to skyrocket.  I'm ok with the reduced mpg.  What I'll really miss is the range especially since GM doesn't offer a extended range fuel tank.

New AT4 that I just got a few days ago is averaging 18-19mpg right now. My commute to work is about 35 miles at 55mph the whole way. I took these pics today coming home

The 6.2 does pretty good on the highway. It’s the stop-and-go of city driving that ruins it.

2019 GMC Denali with 6.2. Stock except tonneau cover. Mixed city and highway over 1000 mile period = 17.5. Highway trips = 20.5. Pulling Polaris Ranger 1000 with full windshield on aluminum trailer = 10.5 - 13.0 depending on terrain. Very happy with my truck. Came from a F250 with Powerstroke

2020 AT4/6.2L/10 speed. Just drove from RI to VA, light traffic, 670 miles. I mostly used cruise control, 5-7 MPH over the speed limit. I averaged 22.7 MPG for the trip. The truck has 1500 total miles.

Just picked up my 2020 AT4 6.2L  (with the off-road Duratrac tires and no tonneau cover) and I'm getting 14 L/100km (16.1 MPG) with a mix of driving types over 700kms.

 

The way I view it, I bought the 6.2L because I wanted the performance...you have to pay to play...

2020 Chevy TB w/ 6.2.  Hard folding cover.

 

Last month 16mpg over 700 miles.  Average speed 23 mpg.  85 trips.  This was from the chevy app.

 

On one trip last week I got the following:  127 miles and 21.7 mpg (computer) with a best 28.1 for a 25 mile section.  This was country roads with most of roads being traveled at 45-60 mph.  Some hills and sharp corners.  Had to slow down for a few small towns.  Had some stopping at stop signs and half way at our destination.  

 

My best 50 miles (same trip as above) is 25.6.

    • I was the GM of a Lincoln Mercury dealership back in the 80's. The service lot was always full with "broken" ones. Plenty of transmissions, power windows and a/c repairs. The only one I'd consider owning would be the Marauder at this point and it certainly wouldn't be a daily driver.  My 2025 GMC Sierra 1500 Denali Ultimate is my "Lincoln Town Car" in my retirement. I want all the "stuff". Big infotainment screens, one touch power windows, Supercruise (I won't buy another vehicle without it), hands free pretty much everything. I'm going to swap my current truck for a 2027 Yukon Denali Ultimate so I can have the air suspension and surround vision recording along with all the other "stuff". 
    • Yep mine is on backorder also.
    • The Denali Ultimate's grille is tinted, but the "regular' Denali has a bright chrome grille like the current models.
    • Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.
    • Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍
