Say I have the 2023 RST METALLIC gray. think I got ripped off a little. It’s the factory RST. Don’t have the adaptive cruise control don’t have the wireless charger. Yea I’m being petty. Has the distance gap. Overall I like the darn thing.
Just bought one of these in 2WD, love the multifunction tailgate, got the 5.3 & that was my preference to any kind of turbo or a diesel. So far, very pleased.
Thanks Twin Falls Chevy, and a special thanks to the LDS Church for the use of your parking lot, lol. Chevy is running a 3 year 0% special until the end of Oct on the RST's. Was looking at a new F-150, but I might just go take one of these for a spin this week, see how it goes... Good review my man.
Lol 😂 I would say definitely test drive both! The ecoboost F150’s are incredibly quick, which is fun and tempting. But I would personally rather own a Chevy. 😎
I have the same truck 2022, pretty much no trouble with it after 12,000 km. Although wish I got a few more options but all around a good solid truck. But I would be surprised if a few issues come up with all electronics on it.
I was looking at one of these trucks yesterday, so I’ve been researching it. I’ve come across many saying they had electronic issues under 10,000 miles on the truck. All manufactures have their issues. But that’s a big one. still looks like a nice truck. And it’s hard to find a V-8 in a 1500 these days
Absolutely agree that they all have their issues. I haven’t actually heard much about current electrical issues. I’ve heard more about lifter issues. I’m sure it’s a very low percentage of owners who experience these problems. But still make you wonder. Thanks for watching! 🙂
I Picked up one 3 days ago come lifted 500miles 48k all black inside out leather seats boy o boy super nice love it specially come lifted my tale gate has that extra step on it with a handlebar didn’t know till today lol nice truck
That 327 fuelie engine is 11:1 compression. --> 355 HP. (Yep! Over 1HP per Cube 😲😲😲😲😲) So: use ONLY premium fuel and the top end additive mandated in your owner's manual every 5k miles. (I use only the techron gas PLUS the ac delco...) If you're lucky enough to get the 8 speed, hang on to your seat! It's insane fast 🤣😂🤪😜 but the 10 is somewhat more mellow...😇 True Rally Sport! (don't get in trouble folks! 😉) Cheers!
Checked out one of these yesterday. Had EP discount ready in hand ready to lease one of these. Wasnt especting the 640 monthly payment after the discount was applied. These trucks arent made for the working class anymore. Couldnt imagine the payment without the discount.
Got a 2024 ltz last weekend for 56k fully loaded with a 2.9 interest extremely good truck and has all the stuff I want like the cameras and the Bose audio and can tow whatever I want
You could if you want to, but doing what the owners manual rates is also sufficient, as the engine is tuned for that specific octane. Higher octane is more safe for higher compression or performance vehicles that otherwise might risk “knock retard” where the early combustion detonation could happen. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Mines on the back of a tow truck as we speak. The electronics are unreliable. Mine has been towed 2 times and 2 roadside repairs with 6900 miles on it. $44,000 mistake
Oh gosh, sorry to hear that. Do you mind sharing specific issues it’s had? You would think more issues would be worked out by this point. But GMs never been known to have trouble free electronics lol.
I don’t know. I haven’t personally read anything about redesigns on the forums, I would tend to think not, especially mid generation. Especially when most of these failures likely happen after warranty ends. GM likely won’t issue a recall unless that’s there best financial bet. 🤕
@@AutomotiveAnonymous208 thank you for your reply. One more question if I may? What’s the tow capacity with the trailering package on this truck? THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
I have a 2021 RST 6.2. Super comfortable and practical (weekly trips to the recycling center with garden stuff). I am ok with the GM seats, many reviewers say they are too hard. What is your take?
You own a sweet truck! 🙂 Honestly at 5’ 11 and like 190# I feel kinda small sitting in these ginormous cabs, but I like them. I’ve never not felt comfortable in the 6 or 7 of various configurations I’ve driven for reviews. Thanks for watching! 🙂
There’s actually quite a few. I hope this link works to Chevy’s website. It lets you see all the differences in trim levels. www.chevrolet.com/trucks/silverado/1500/build-and-price/trims/compare?selectedIndex=4 🙂
Usually sport mode helps a vehicles transmission keep the engine in a slightly better RPM range for making power. Usually only a few 10ths a second faster in most cases. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Yeah for sure! Seriously, what has happened to the auto industry. So many gadgets and tech that normal people can’t comfortably buy most of them. 😢🤦♂️ Thanks for watching. 🙂
