I'm ready to pull trigger on a new truck .  Been shopping and test driving for a few weeks now.  I get GM family discount through my family.

 

With all the available rebates, I can get this 2023 Silverado RST for $53,435 which is a smoking deal.  Has 6.2L, sunroof, leather, adaptive cruise, etc.  

https://www.gmfamilyfirst.com/byo-vc/client/vehicle-shopper-vdp/en/US/chevrolet-ff/silverado/2023/silverado-1500#?pagesize=24&radius=50&models=Silverado 1500&years=2023&makes=Chevrolet&postalcode=44141&filterconfigkey=Chevrolet-2023-Silverado-1500&requestedPostalcode=44141&open-panel=Powertrain&trims=RST&engineCodes=L87&scrollposition=888.8889770507812&vin=1GCUDEELXPZ135062&filtermatched=exactmatch&primarydealerdistance=32.0&bac=259406&pagenumber=1&dealerSearchBy=bac&brand=Chevrolet

 

Or I can get this loaded 2022 Denali with 6.2L, 27k miles.  has all the options, magnetic ride, tailgate speakers and tonneau cover which is very nice.

https://www.autofind.com/dealer/details/11333/1GTU9FEL4NZ145963/

 

Basically this comes down to whether or not the new dash layout is worth it.  The GMC tailgate is something I actually want also - I ride dirt bikes and that tailgate is a nice feature.  The tonneau cover is worth about a grand also cuz I'd need to buy that on new truck.

I had close to the same choice when I bought my last new one. A new year old left over Denali or a new Texas Edition with the 5.3. The Texas Edition was deeply discounted. I really wanted the 6.2. In my case the Texas Edition had the E-85 option that closed the gap on the 6.2. In your case with used or used Im going new. That’s what I did.

I'd go with the 2022. I'm not a fan of the refresh console. They ruined it by placing a shifter in the middle of prime real estate where space is used and needed every trip.

I actually prefer the console shifter vs the column shifter... It feels much more natural and sporty....

 

I think the dash refresh is a huge upgrade.  The 2022 model dash is actually a half step behind the infotainment system in my 2018 Grand Cherokee that I'm getting rid of

I hate the console shifter. It isn't natural at all for someone that has logged as many miles as I have.. Pushing forward to go backwards from Park makes no logical sense. I would love to have the column shifter as it would ALSO eliminate that much more "tech for the sake of tech" crap that GM insists on stuffing into their vehicles.

I love the new dash.

I hate the console shifter. Waste of space, and it's in the road when accessing the cubby the the row of switches in front of it. 

 

Fwiw, the 'refresh' 2500/3500 didn't get stuck with the console shift -- and the SUV's didn't get stuck with the console shift.

console shifter feels natural to me after driving sporty cars and Jeep Grand Cherokees for 20 years, they all had center console shifter.  

 

So back to the trucks?

Go new is better. The new Dash and layout is so much better!

that's how I'm leaning.  The interest rate is better on new trucks also and I'm finding some incredible deals. 

 

Not exactly sure why some models are so discounted and others aren't.  There was a 5.3 Denali by me last week that was marked down $12k.  other ones on the lot, barely anything.

I went from a '21 SLT to a '23 Elevation. Both had the 5.3. For me the change in the dash was worth it, and honestly the '23 seems to ride better and also is quieter. I also noticed the 10sp in the '23 with the updated shifting programming is a significant improvement over the '21. Overall I'm much happier with the 23 than the 21.  I hope this helps.

I have a 22 LTZ ltd.

I also have a 23 High Country 6.2. 

When I get in the 22 after driving the 23 all day , It feels like going back in time to the 14 -18 chevys. Glad my wife drives the 22, she could care less😂.

I'd get the new Chevy.

I agree to but, that is where everyone I saw before the refresh wanted it because Ford and Dodge were that way.

 

With that said. I'd go for the Chevy since it's new and under full warranty without paying for an extended warranty at this time.

I would buy the new RST IMHO. You don't want somebody's old truck. $54.000 is a killer deal for the RST with the 6.2, leather and the rest. Don't get hung up about the dash or the shifter. Its a truck. Now is a great time to buy a truck. There are way too many $85.000 + trucks for sale right now. Get that new RST + a new dirt bike and put $20.000 in the bank.

I already have a new dirt bike which is why I need a truck but I like where your heads at!

      Trading 7.3 (Godzilla) for G.M.C gas

      By James Beyer · Posted

      Congratulations Isttype, on your gmc. Really like my 2024 2500hd sle doublecab now with 85,500 miles.  I checked the oil today at 4800 miles since last oil change and barely reading on the stick.  I don't care if GM says it's Acceptable adding a quart every 2000 miles because that is 100% BS, It is not a 1966 Harley Shovelhead! Sounds like it's setting up a future failure like I had with my 1500 6.2l. Other than oil consumption problems, I really like the 6.6l gas and 10 speed is really nice.  Towed a light 4000 pound trailer last week and averaged 14 mpg.  I was pretty impressive that a 7300 pound gas truck did 14mpg towing, Later-

      Long Term Cold Cycle Limited Testing   Back to the 1990's and XOM's million mile test. Since then there have been others and there will be more. Schaeffer's, AMSOIL to name two. Of these Schaeffer's is the stand alone which I will explain in a bit later.    http://papers.sae.org/600190/:   http://papers.sae.org/850215/:   Up to 75% of  engine wear occurs on cold starts. These two links (above) provide the technical reasons for engine wear. In a nut shell, and by a large margin, cylinder wear is what takes out most motors and even with a pre-oiling system that part of the engine is dry enough on cold starts and cold warm up to pierce Stribeck.   So when you put a motor, or a car, on a dyno for a million miles stopping only for oil changes, (yes fuel is uninterrupted) or break down maintenance, you are depriving the test of the most important part of it's wear cycle. Yes a million is then a pretty easy walk even for a mineral oil under those conditions.    How about cleanliness during the long test cycles? Same thing. Varnishes that stick rings and insulate parts are laid down by repetitive 'heat cycles'. It's the cool down the precipitates the varnishes. These long runs also hinder acidic attack caused by cold start richness and less than optimal cold start ring sealing. They hinder water formation and enhance breathing of the crankcase; the petri dish of acid formation, the first step in sludge formation, amalgamation and precipitation. These motors are also monitored and controlled for water and oil temperatures to within the "normal operating range".      https://www.swri.org/sites/default/files/sequence-iiih-test.pdf Note the test sequence in some boutique oils literature for testing, API IIIH, is not the standard used for the ILSAC G7 testing. Does that mean it is irrelevant? No, not as used. As used as a 'visual guide' it makes it's point. The G7 weighted piston deposit minimum is lower.      Back to Schaeffer's. That was a cyclical test of an engine in fleet service and not a dyno mule and if you saw the video it was not mirror clean but wear was low.    There are oils like BioSyn and other 'Renewable" source oils that taught cleanliness and have proven themselves in fleet testing. Havoline an other example.    The newest ILSAC G-7 test prioritize cleanliness, LSPI mitigation and fuel economy OVER WEAR. In comparison Porsche C30 Specification Verses ILSAC G-7 Specification below:      Some will balk that this graph isn't apples to apples and I will challenge that in that this graph represent the SPECIFICATION and not the any One Oil Performance.   It is absolutely possible to minimize wear, maximize cleanliness and mitigate LSPI etc., It just isn't cheap and currently I see none that are not walking toward profit over performance.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I don't think you will need a split, separate product, etc., the OBD port should be able to deliver everything you need. Since your device would be plugged into it all the time, it wouldn't miss anything.    Hardware in this case will be the easiest part of your project - ELM 327 devices will already deliver all the data you need. Reporting/software is where your advantage/marketability is.
