Torn between Trail boss or RST

[pewterliftedz]

I think it depends on the look you want, and which one you can get a better deal on, I wouldn't hesitate to get a RST 5.3/8 speed personally.

Thanks for all of your input! Definitely a harder choice to make now. Have the 6.2L RST always been 10 speed or is that new for this year? I think It will probably come down to what I get a better deal on when I am at the dealership. I can also get the all black RST, which is like getting the front black bumper

All 6.2 trucks since 2019 are 10 speeds

I have the 2020 Black RST 6.2 .... I love it.

I just made a deal to trade my 19 8spd truck for a 21 10spd truck. Both with the 5.3. The 10 spd really is smoother. I always figured stronger is better too. They're using it with the 6.2, the 5.3 will be gentle on it. 

I looked at an RST or TB before sticking with GMC. Had to get the 6.2 to get the 10spd which was a bummer for me. Also couldn't get buckets in the TB if I remember correctly. So for me, it would have been an RST. I ended up with a GMC Elevation which you can get the 5.3/10 speed but no leather. There's tradeoffs everywhere. 

Good luck!

I only bought a new truck because I wanted a diesel. Lack of that option in a Trail Boss made my decision easy
