( www.TFLtruck.com ) The 2014 Chevy Silverado High Country pickup truck with the new 6.2L V8 is the most powerful light duty pickup that you can buy today. With 420 HP and 460 lb-ft the new High end Chevy essentially shares the same engine as the new Chevy Corvette. That means that it should not only be powerful but also fast. In another fun and informative TFLtruck video, Roman finds out just how fast the new Chevrolet Silverado will go from 0-60 MPH in this impromptu and First Drive Performance Review.

GM should offer the 6.2 in the Regular cab, standard box, two-wheel-drive, work truck configuration. Couple that with the triangle window steel wheels, and this thing would be a total sleeper, but still super practical.

Thanks for your comment. We really appreciate it. We asked Roman and he says you may want to let GM know this fact because the Silverado's head drivetrain engineer that Roman interviewed was under the impression that this is essentially the same engine as in the Vette.

@Doriandotslash 10 лет назад

I was DEAD SET on getting a 2014 Ram 1500 Sport Crew Cab and loved it when I drove it. I took 3 test drives, one was a really long 2 hour drive. Until 2 days ago when I test drove a loaded Silverado 1500 with the 6.2. Well, I've changed my mind, think I'm gonna go with the 6.2 Silverado now! It was a much nicer ride, better quality interior and had much more punch when I floored it. And the inside is so quiet. I especially loved when I totally blew past an F-150 when the light turned green even though he buried his pedal first lol Once I noticed he wanted to go, I floored it and passed him with ease.

@moegreenbl 9 лет назад

Don't think so Tim these trucks are slow I eat them up all day hemi 5.7 463 rwhp dyno tested

@Doriandotslash 9 лет назад

moe green Funny enough, I've since changed my mind again since I posted that and bought a 2015 F-150 ecoboost after I test drove one. I've had it tuned and it blows anything out of the water by several car lengths. Mine is a supercrew 4x4 and I toasted a Hemi 2wd reg cab who was tuned with loud-ass muffler to boot. It was hilarious. Got 4 lengths ahead and he slowed down and turned off the road. lol Twin turbo chargers for the win!

I am happy where I am but anyone who gets this I hope has A: better luck and B: really enjoys the rig. I like the small block on the 6.2. GOOD WORK GM

Might be most "powerful" but how come the ecoboost f150 can tow 11,300?

@nimlil 11 лет назад

Yes the engine is not the LT1 but it is the new gen 5 motor which is closely related to the Gen V small-block V-8 in the new Chevy Corvette. Both are aluminum-block eights with 6.2 liters of displacement. Both feature cylinder deactivation and direct fuel injection, and both make north of 400 horses. Also it features the same 11.5 compression ratio. For all entended purposes and as explained by Chev exectives, it is the same engine as the corvette with a few ajustments to serve for truck duty.

@davidhowell3609 Год назад

there are 3 different LT1 generations the first original LT-1 was used in 1970-1972 in various corvettes and camaros, then the gen II small block there's the LT1 used in the 92-96 vette, 94-97 Camaro also an all aluminum version called the LT4 and a unrelated twin cam 32v engine called the LT5 in the 90-95 ZR-1 corvette, all these displaced 5.7L, the new LT1 is a Generation V small block, the LS3 is a gen IV small block, the man in the video is saying the ecotec3 6.2 is related to the new LT1

@manup2survive 10 лет назад

I have gotten away from chevy/gm for sometime and have owned and still drive a Ford F150. No politics involved, oh and my wife drives a Buick, so to be fair here. I am shopping for a new truck. And my wife is shopping for a new suv. I have looked at all and I am impressed with the new Chevy design, especially the High Country. I sat in one yesterday. No time to test drive, but I will soon. I was impressed with the new look and feel.

@camshaft53149 11 лет назад

I'm pretty sure trim doesn't make a truck tow any less? As long as the vehicle is set up with a 3.73 axle ratio, with the ecoboost, 4x4 and crew cab the spec sheet clearly says 11,200 lbs.

@jkheslekrants 11 лет назад

TFL, all small block Chevys, per it's appropriate generation, are "essentially the same". they share the same architecture, physical exterior dimensions ect. To call it a Corvette engine would imply the corvette uses this engine, it doesn't. Differing cam/heads, ecm tuning ect makes it a different engine. The different hp/tq outputs and operating rpm range prove this. I could easily see them telling media people, like Roman, who aren't mechanically inclined that it's "like a Vette engine"

@ayrtonsennafan0038 11 лет назад

I'm just making assumptions here but I think that it's the same block design as the corvette, but with a different camshaft setup and tuning. You look at the Corvette and in that application it makes the same 460 lbs/ft of torque, but it also red lines around 7000 rpm. This truck likely tops out at about 5500-5800 rpm. It's tuned for lower end torque for towing but let's be honest I'm sure they did this to give the Tundra a run for it's money.

Early C6 Vettes had an LS2. the TBSS also had an LS2. GM has a LOT of different small blocks. I'm simply tryin to save you good people and especially Roman from lookin like a Full by calling the Silverados L86 6.2 the same engine as a Vette which has an LT1. that's all guys. I promise there is no hate here

@tylerphelps4868 10 лет назад

My 01 was about 20k in 03, bone stock except for flowmaster exhaust it makes more power than I'll ever REALLY need lol (bout 350lb/ft) and has survived off-roading that people build prerunners for, other than typical maintenance and a little bit of warranty tranny repair (it is a dodge remember lol) never had a prob with it and it gets about 18 highway

@Rtvoll 11 лет назад

Yes it will. Every pond counts. A gallon of gas weighs about 6.5 lbs. So depending on how big your tank is that would be an extra 100-150 lbs. Those magazines 0-60 times are very unrealistic.

I'm waiting till 2015 to get the new f-150 with the updated eco-boost they say it could have 10-20 horse more and up to 20 pounds of torque more and it being 700 pounds lighter with aluminum used the tow rating sould be over 12,000 pounds

@mercedesbenzisbest 11 лет назад

Actually it is pretty much the same engine as the corvettes and such. GM just mainly renames the LS series engines as "Vortech" Then they lightly tune them for more torque and decrease the horsepower.

I've said it before. This is NOT a Corvette engine. It's a 6.2L Small Block Chevy. Just like the 5.3 is NOT a Vette engine either, nor is it a "detuned" Vette engine or anything of the sort. It's just another one of the many SBCs Chevrolet makes. This engine is an L86 The Vettes is an LT1. FYI to the fool screaming "Ford can do more with less" Chevy 6.2 makes more power than Fords 6.2. As does Chevys 2.0T vs Fords 2.0T, Chevys 3.6 vs Fords 3.7 along with Many other direct comparisons.

Gearing has much to do with how much this thing pulls.... SAE had concerns becauuse this is only a half ton with half tone frame and components... but autoguide test drove this truck with 3:43s and hauled 7500lbs up and down hillsides and said it it with ease and woould have pretty close to the same confidence in those gears if they were pulling 10,000 lbs and that's with 3:43s... 3:73s which is the better gearing offered which if 3:43s did as well as it did I don't think it would have a problem

@gregrowe1168 10 лет назад

This truck has a 3.42 rear end, that's probably the reason for the more modest towing capacity. If it had the 3.73 rear end(or even lower) it would be rated for more. The 5.3 with the 11,500 lbs towing is probably the regular cab 2wd which nobody even buys.

@NOLAItsNotOva 11 лет назад

Yes the Ecoboost is fast but you dont have the maintenance that you would have because of the 2 turbos

@NordicNevs 11 лет назад

Being the honest type, I can say that I do have a chevy in the background of my Harley pic (not mine) and I have not yet heard one with my ears (not that there aren't a few out there) that I have not liked. I will agree that Chevy has always made a good motor. Favorite motor built is the chevy 350, when talking relatively older motors. As far as your turbo comments I am sure that with a turbo it would be an entirely different animal. The 6.2 will be a good motor I am sure.
