2016 4.3 with the 6 speed. Mines still a bit of a baby with only 102,000km (63,379 miles) but its been problem free so far. Only work I've had to do is a battery replacement, spark plug change (by choice), and regular maintenance according to GM's maintenance schedule (brake fluid change, transmission fluid change). Transmission has had a few hiccups here and there (hard shifting) but nothing close to what people have experienced before having to replace the torque converter.

I guess we have the only two on the site!

 

Or at least the only two that will admit it.

Come on kids. I know there are more than two between 231,682 members. Give up those miles.

I continue to be a huge fan of the 4.3.  I only have 82K kms and they are all trouble free.
