[mention=161433]Grumpy Bear[/mention] is very passionate about how terrible the 2019/2020 GM Truck is. This is a dedicated place for him to share his thoughts, views, and opinions.

LOL. He just has a different perspective. IMHO - If GM had more GrumpyBears we likely would have a better truck. I’ve been happy with my 2020 3L Duramax. That certainly will trigger a response.

I don't disagree one bit! I'm just tired of seeing 4 straight pages of personal opinion arguing over how the 2015 regular cab v6 is a better truck.  This is a great place for him to convince GM to up their game and/or convince prospective 2019/2020 GM truck buyers that they should be buying the 2015 v6 model instead.  The bickering has run it's course and is taking away from the original thread's purpose.

True. When a thread says would you "re buy" a '19'/'20 he replies NO! It looks like an Edsel. Really? C'mon guy....

Is it really? 

:rollin:

 

I'm pretty sure it is the last thing this thread is about.

:rolleyes:

The idea of a thread made for another member is suspect, imo, but Op did bring up a point that has long been a frustration of mine.  I own (outright) a '15 V6.  I kick tires regularly at my GM dealership and my salesman phones me on a regular basis.  I am not suffering financially but I need to spend responsibly.  My problem is, I have never encountered a truck that I would gamble on making me as happy as my current truck!

Would you rebuy 2019/2020 GM truck?

 

Would you rebuy gas station sushi?  

 

This is allot of anger over,

"I wouldn't buy it the first time"

 

Evidently the question was actually meant as a plea for sympathetic support of a bad first buy.

Heaven forbid any other opinion.

 

My error.

Please continue your "didn't we make a wise choice' club back slapping session.

I like my 2016 LTZ, but I like my 2019 LTZ way better.  It's more than just the 6.2L and 10 speed.  The 2019 has way more technology when it comes to towing.  And I find it's much easier to get in and out of.  I'm 6' 2" and when I get in my 2016 it feels much tighter.  The 2019 is more spacious and I've never hit my knee when getting in, like I do getting in the 2016.  I also think it looks much better, but that would never be a reason for me to upgrade.

    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
    • You refuse to own anything made in this century yet you reportedly own... a 2007 Silverado, which is now almost 20 years old. The dissonance.... turn up your hearing aid?   You clearly don't understand the government contracting process, brother. We send people to die on front lines, keep the public safe, and make people's husbands, wives, children enter burning buildings with equipment from .....wait for it.....   ...the lowest bidder....   Just because something is used for a long time doesn't mean it's good. But it might be cheap and plentiful.   Please, continue to whine about new trucks in a thread dedicated to new trucks, which you've said you'll never own. We get it. Go tell everyone how you're stuck in time on a Panther forum. I mean, Jesus, an 86 isn't even one of the good Panthers.
    • It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is. 
    • I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.    
    • Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.
