Just curious who's got 100k or 200k on their 8 speed? Just getting my truck paid off now and at 74k miles, really worrying about the long-term reliability of the 8 speed and wondering if I should trade now while it's still worth something. Had a new valve body at 18k and the new mobil 1 atf at 54k to solve the shuddering. All good so far since  🤞

Subbed.  I only have 43k on mine.  Had a temperature sender replaced and updated fluid to solve shuttering around 30k.

I don't have the 8 speed I have the 6 speed mine,it is a 2015. Want to keep mine for another year and worry about the same thing

 I'm at 107,000 now still seems to be fine. (I know your question was about the 8 speed....just getting at I worry about the same thing)

Just hit 60K the other day in my 2018 Sierra, 8 speed. Ive got another year and its paid off so I'll probably be about the same mileage as you are right now when that time comes. 😉  Other than the usual noises when going in and out of reverse, I dont have any complaints. Shifting is nice and smooth when she's going.

BTW......which one is has the least problems the 8 or the 6 speed?

The 6 and 10 speeds are both way less troublesome than the 8 speed

I'm at 230 000 km on my 2015.  It's clunky (especially when I put it in reverse) but still doing the job.

Well, I'll chime in here.  On my 2015 8L90 today I passed 350,000 miles .   Its a Yukon XL Denali.  I change the fluid and filter every year. about every 42,000 miles.  Seems to operate well, about 95% of the time.

Thanks.

      Not sure about DFM tech but i know there's a stop/start deactivation button.

      I could be interested if they axed cylinder deactivation and at least have a button for stop start. I’m sure the HP numbers will be higher. I would want a longer warranty to help build confidence. I’m a less is more guy as I get older. A V-8 work truck model would be my choice. I know a few outfitters for custom additions I prefer.

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      By Zane · Posted

      It's official. GMC pulled the covers off the next-gen 2027 Sierra 1500, and we got the first official look. Full breakdown here: https://www.gm-trucks.com/next-gen-2027-gmc-sierra-1500-v8-trim-changes/   The quick hits: SLE and SLT are dead. The new core retail trim is just called "Elevation". Two new V8s, a 5.7L and a 6.6L built with high-performance Corvette architecture roots. No horsepower or torque numbers yet. The 2.7 TurboMax finally ditches the old gearbox and gets the 10-speed automatic. AT4X moves to larger standard 35-inch tires with front and rear e-lockers, Multimatic DSSV dampers, and heavy-duty Jounce Control Dampers. Over 60 inches of combined display on Denali Ultimate and AT4X, complete with a motorized articulating center screen and an adaptive passenger screen. Seven simplified trims across the entire model line to clean up ordering confusion.   So let's get into it: New 5.7L and 6.6L gas V8s with custom active exhaust tuning and a Corvette connection. Is this the exact engine lineup half-ton traditionalists have been begging for? Purging the iconic SLE and SLT names after all these years to lean entirely on Elevation as the high-volume core. Bold move, or a mistake? That motorized articulating 16.3-inch screen that slides up to reveal a hidden dashboard vault. Awesome mechanical theater, or does it make you nervous about long-term durability? Physically lowering the headlamps in the front fascia to improve road courtesy and stop blinding oncoming traffic. Smart real-world engineering, or does it hurt the truck's aggressive stance? What trim are you putting your name down for on day one? Drop your first impressions below.

      My overnight hospital stay turned into five.  I developed a post operative fever and an erratic  heart rate.  A blood clot in the lungs was the culprit.  This is apparently a common post surgical complication and easily remedied.   I was the youngest in a four bed ward and a Doctor with a Geriatric specialization was in charge of my care.  All of the nurses were good and some were outstanding at dealing with old people.  It was very evident that my age triggered a different level of care!  My advice to any senior going for a hospital stay is to have a trusted family member advocate visible.  If not, you will still be well cared for, but you may discover that your voice  isn't as strong as it once was!
