We Drive 1,000 Miles in the 2020 Chevy Silverado HD To Find Out If The New 10-Speed Gets Better MPG! 

That's because you guys are still in the dark ages, here in 'Murica we have our faces glued to our phone, yes even while driving, so we need a 3rd party to give us a 'heads up' on a vehicle in front of us. Don't hate, tailgate! Jk

yea ford trucks tell front, left, right and rear

And then you still crash into it anyway

Lol I love Russian comments

I've seen your Soviet videos and that's simply untrue.

imagine what kind of mpg it will get doing 65 on some highways

I get 27 mpg going 60 to 65 with my 2018 hd. They are great , vut flipping expensive!!!

@@davidlusk4350 insane mpg! imo worth it!!!

@@Logenconze that's all highway, over 750 miles a tank. City is like 13 mpg at best drops like a rock!!

Almost as much as my subaru impreza...but I can't haul anything other than ass in my impreza :D

You can buy a Titan Tank 55 gallon, so nice cruising range. I haven't figured why they don't offer a larger tank.

Whachis if range becomes an issue I will go that route. Thanks for the suggestion. Is there a specific site or place you can recommend to buy the Titan fuel tank?

@@the_ghee_spot I know you can go to their website and buy it, or use their dealer locator that may help find someone to buy and install it in your area.

@@08fordfusi - I'm guessing they go with a smaller tank to A- Save money and B- Save weight to advertise higher payload capacity

I'm averarging 22.4 to 24.6 In my 2014 Z71 Silverado. 18.7 to 19 averarge hauling my two quad's..

Problem is towing mileage is garbage.

Wierd how that happens when you actually take the time to program the fuel system correctly so you reach stasis! I think this trend will continue.

And the quality is shit after 75k miles

19.9mpg is more like 14.2 litres per 100km.

Kelvin Hill Nope 19.9 US Gallons is equal to 11.8913 liters per 100kms exactly 😃

Garth Hayward I got 14.18L/100km. But that might have been a UK gallons conversion.

My 2018 GMC 2500HD is getting 18 MPG using TFL fuel measuring mechanism. Getting 20 mpg with the 2020 is another reason to trade in the 2018.

Trading in for a newer vehicle was never a money making proposition so there isn't a true "loss" since there is NEVER a gain (I'm a daily stock trader). It's trading in for the new features like the refreshed engine (see Gail Banks video on why this makes sense), the new camera package, and the interior upgrades. The 2 mpg gain helps offset the cost of hauling a fifth wheel all over the country.

P.S. the price of crude oil is tumbling again today, I just made $500 shorting OIL. :-)

@@DDA40Xman in that case, buy a Ford or Ram.

DDA40Xman Lol really? My 2018 CCLB 6.0L gets maybe 13mpg.

Yes Please!!!

jamaal Me and center the steering to the drivers seat. So many high 5’s

it's not that they figured it out Jamaal, they put it there so ignorant people won't mix up the fluids. Yes, it's more convenient where they have it now.

@@bobhirdes6725 I never thought about that wonder how many people for the wrong fluids in the wrong spot

Bob Hirdes Chevy put it there because it was the easiest and cheapest way.

@@jasonlarsen3515 Nope, Wrong! I know for a fact they put it there so ignorant people don't mix up the fluids. Yes, this has happened to people and it is documented. That's why they are clearly marked and different sizes.

Same here!

like your centennial avatar. You still have to back into the spot. lol

DDA40Xman same so many people don’t watch when walking behind cars and my fear is a little kid getting behind me who’s short enough that I can’t see them over the bed

@@flyaround5953 Or someone in their "Smart" car stops behind you, you'd think you ran over a speed bump LOL.

at 13:13 of video shows he is backed into space with mirrors pulled inward. At 13:20 shows he is pulled nose in. So he moved truck around to complain about this.

Do you have a 12,000 pound travel trailer to tow? Your half ton won't cut it. Apples to oranges... His review is not meant to be a comparison between 1500 and 2500 gas mileage.

@@kevinmedlin6436 I must have missed the part where he pulled a 12000 lb load for 20 mpg. Take your apples and oranges somewhere else bud, you won't be selling them on this thread.

Ive gotten 22 out of mine with 6.2l. Best score on trk computer is 27,but steady above 20 on freeway and 18 city

@@derekduchamp4603 kkll

It's growing on me

@Richard Nowak congrats, your still getting the bowtie reputation which you can't beat 👍

Even tho that has been a Chevy thing for decades suddenly it gets close to what it used to be it's weird.

Truck stops

Blind spot just lean forward when you want to look along with normal look into mirror. Blind spot fixed. Real simple

Meh! You're lazy. My truck doesn't have power windows! And sometimes, it doesn't even have air.

@@andyharman3022 naw not lazy just dont want to sweat driving home after a hard days work I always buy used I drive 100 miles to work every day cruise is nice

@@Danzilly 3 hours minimum on the road every work day? I thought my 86 mile round trip was too much time.

I’m just sitting here relaxing in my air conditioned seats 👌 so nice

If I see you in person I won't like the looks of you either. go buy the inferior product of fugly ford and butt ugly ram.

Ha would take a Ford all day over that pile. Ugliest shit box ever!

@@bobhirdes6725 that's funny. You're just butt hurt cause Fugly Fords and Butt Ugly Rams are outselling the ugliest truck on the planet. Waaaahhh!

I'm a fan of the high country's looks. It's much more traditional. The other trims, I really don't like at all

That's why there's the GMC. Same truck underneath and looks a hell of a lot better.

Chevy has the worst turning radius. A number of my customers won't buy one because of it.

Omg? What are you, 14?

Maneuverability still matters on a truck. Nobody expects the turning radius of a prius, but if a Ford and Ram can make tighter turns and in general maneuvers better, that matters a lot at that size. Maybe even more so than on a smaller car.

Maybe André means the truck's turning radius is worse than competition's trucks? I'd like further clarification too.

@@tactickleshtooper1753 As far as I know this truck's turning radius is pretty good, he's just complaining because he's not used to driving trucks. I drive a much bigger truck and I don't complain about it's maneuverability. Point is, you should expect the maneuverability to be slightly different when you're getting into a bigger vehicle. So stop whining and man up! I'd be complaining more about that sticker price: $73k?! GTFO! No offense to anyone. Andre, spasiba bolshoya ;)

Did Chevy give cylinder deactivation for the hd gasser? I know ram did and have not seen that review either.....that's what's hurting the hd gas section is a cylinder deactivation but as a computer option or switch inside the truck.

yes

@@jshapiro34 no cylinder is only on the 1500 trucks.

That's what I am waiting on.

these guys have hard-ons for diesel; That's pretty much all they review. When they do review gas they fail to mention that a diesel is 10K more, fuel is more expensive. its 10K more to register, which is big in some states. There's another review where someone shows that the cost of ownership for a diesel is about 500.00 better than gas per year given the added fuel cost and maintenance of the diesel. with that said a diesel owner would have to keep the truck 18 years to make a diesel a better buy. That wasn't taking into account the added 10K in tax and registration. Long story short Diesels are way more expensive to own. As for the "they hold their value better", that's also a facade....they cost 10K more, therefore they should have a better resale by that 10K bloated price tag.

This was actually the second Chevrolet. The first one broke down 500 miles into the trip second one made it the rest of the way.

More like 18 hours lol

@@inlinewhine you can’t get any inline whine with a Tesla

My Malibu use to tow 20,000 lbs also🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😍😍

Andre says, the LED headlight performance was good for the one night he drove. Enough light with regulars headlights to drive at night in the middle of Utah.

This truck doesn’t have Auto Stop Start, does it? I wouldn’t want that on the vehicles I buy.

@@DD-1996 : I have a 2020 High Country and no, it doesn't. To be honest, I think we're going to have to start getting used to Start/Stop. I travel a lot and almost every vehicle in Europe has it and we're wanting higher MPG, sitting at idle at a light doesn't help fuel economy and that's where most vehicles will see an improvement in MPG by using Start/Stop. Now HD trucks on the other hand may not see Start/Stop for a while, but that's because we tend to use them differently.

@@DD-1996 even if it does....it can be bypassedif you want it permanently off 🤣......i hate Start/stop too....

Wayne Brissette me to mine is white

The 6.6L gas engine texted me personally and he said buy a diesel if you tow much....

I tested the 6.6 gas last month. While my 2018 duramax was getting something done. It was a slug, felt under powered, but very quiet!!

I really hope they dont do that. Most of these fools have a hard enough time at 70 not killing them self! But most interstates are not rated for thst high of a speed anyway. To many curves, hills, blind spots, and poor overall road condition.

qball2000able why?

@@chestercalloway3812 To keep from putting def by accident in where the diesel fuel goes.

@Richard Nowak Another reason DEF us useless

Capless fuel tank

Johnathon Gallagher in other words, people who have no need for a truck like this.

777jones actually, towing a camper with a wife and two kids and all our stuff I’m nearly maxed out on my payload rating for my half ton. And we only have a little 23’ camper. If people want more like a 26-30’ camper (say they want their own separate bedroom space), then an HD truck is the only truck to safely haul those loads.

@@jamesdillaman What's in the bed? I have 4 kids and a dog. We tow a 28' Travel trailer with our Sequoia. 90% of our stuff goes in the trailer. The trailer is about 6000lbs to 6500lbs depending if we take water or not.

Geoff Moore well my payload rating is around 1200 lbs. Me, the wife and kids, and things in the bed total about 500-600 pounds. My trailer weighs 5500 pounds with a tongue weight of 600 pounds. That makes a total payload of 1100-1200 lbs. maxed out. As my kids get older I’ll either have to carry less stuff, load up the rear of the trailer (which can lead to unstable towing conditions) or upgrade to an HD truck.

I need 3/ 4 ton to haul my travel trailer and gear.

Nice comment. It stands to reason that the lift and tires mean less fuel economy, even if the tires are larger in diameter. I still hear from friends or strangers in casual conversation that they are surprised fuel economy goes down when customizing the truck like that. You are further proof of the results. Thanks.

Looks worse imo. The bowtie belongs on the hood like it always was till they did it with the square body and stuck with it even when their trucks go uglier. Finally when get Chevrolet back where it belongs and everyone bitchs.

8 MPG probably

Andre was running unloaded. If he was heavily loaded, like the big boys are all the time, the DEF consumption would have been higher.

Your point is falling on Def ears. 🙃

Def fluid DEFinitely sucks :-).

@@thawk1435 😂😂😂

Same when people say ATM machine. Automated teller machine machine.

Some people say DEFluid

GMC version looks way better

I happen to love the quirky look of the front end it's so spastic and different that it is cool... I didn't think that at first though it grew on me

I've been thinking somewhat the same thing. They need to do travel trailers to get the effect of aero drag on the large frontal area, and to experience directional instability of crosswinds, and of passing semis. I transport travel trailers for money, and the typical ball hitch that I tow is 8 ft wide x 11 ft high, 27 ft long, 7000 pounds. Fifth Wheels are typically 8.5 ft wide x 12 feet tall, but I tend to get better fuel economy with them than I do ball hitches. Fifth Wheels are also a lot more stable in crosswind conditions.

Every brand has been over 80 grand for 1 ton with options for a few years now

Oregon has finely changed that Law, so some or all stations are now self serve. I live in WA ST, and had heard about change on Local News.

Small populated counties allow self serve otherwise you can fill your diesel or motorcycle yourself.

Kinda like people saying CAC Card (Common Access Card Card) lol

What’s your VIN number?

Something Obamas EPA created to screw americans over

NIC Card....

it actually looks insane.. wait until you see one in real life.

Doesn't even look that bad, stop hating.

You guys are on crack. Wouldn't be caught dead in that shit wagon air conditioner. They ruined a pretty decent looking truck. If I was buying a Chev now it'd be a Sierra.

Dannick thibault they’re butt ugly

They are ugly, Robot arms for mirrors and they look like the pickup trucks in the fallout video games. Now the Gmc trucks got it going on.

Ford F-250 6.7 Super I have a 2018 F250 anyway you can let me know how to do the regen you discussed? Ty sir.

Ford builds the best trucks!

Brandon Blair it’s call OCR or operator command regen, every trim has the feature but needs to be turned on by the factory or your dealership, I wish post a few links, 17’-2020

According to the GM website turning radius is 52.7' which I believe is about a foot or so more than the previous generation. Makes sense I guess being that it's 10.5 inches longer than before

@@dank8017 thanks for the info I had an 89 half ton that was terrible and I had an 89 HD 3/4 ton. That would turn circles around the half ton. Who wants to do a 5 point turn in a two-lane road.

The school for the blind agrees

You will never know

@@SMiller5488 whatcha mean? Ppei cracked the code and have the l5p deleted and tuned !

I wonder how much better it can actually get though. Maybe 1 mpg

I’d say definitely more then that, the current L5P’s have been picking up in some cases 7 mpg’s, so if that combined with the 10 speed is any indication, over 30 mpg’s could be a very attainable number, won’t know until someone does it but it’s very possible.
