My pleasure! That’s awesome, if you were also there yesterday I think I might have actually seen you. I briefly stopped by to borrow a few Silverados for some snow/ice driving impression videos and on my way out I was told there was a gentleman there from WA looking at the regular cab I published last week! Either way, very cool and what an awesome truck! As I mentioned in this video, it was a really fun truck and I wanted a few extra minutes with it before I dropped it off from my initial goal of filming this other video with it. A guy had apparently just about bought it when I brought it back that day, but that deal obviously didn’t go through and for good reason. Enjoy your sweet new truck! 🙂
It is really good that it is a 2.7 turbo max engine, not everyone gives it rough use for what it is made in the v8 version, some might want it for daily use and that way they could use this model and not spend a lot on fuel, this type of pick up.grande are quite comfortable and are very nice trucks.
A few other reviews mentioned the fuel economy of the 2.7 was not far off from the 5.3. You'd expect an engine almost half the size would have better economy, but the turbo tends to suck more fuel.
Just picked up my 2024 Silverado 1500 with the Turbo Max Engine. The Window Sticker states: • 5 YEAR / 100,000 MILE* POWERTRAIN LIMITED WARRANTY, ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE & COURTESY TRANSPORTATION. Nice suprise for me.
I have 2 2022 GMC regular cab short beds with all the options you can get. One has a 3 inch lift and one has a rear suspension leveling drop. The ride is great on both. I love how maneuverable in town they are. I would recommend the 2.7 to anyone.
@@AutomotiveAnonymous208 I drive the 2022 GMC with the flipped rear shackle that levels the back to the front. I get in and out so often that I don't like to always jump up into lifted trucks unless I am using them for a off road purpose.
This is refreshing I hardly ever see these unless it’s wrapped with company logos . And I’m thinking this model would be a little bit quicker than the crew cab.
Lol, that’s a good point! I’m surprised that some of the dedicated truck channels don’t have a system to test that and share how well the truck dynamics look and feel once loaded. My focus is more geared towards performance and 0-60.
It's decent. Starter is sounding like it wants to give up only at 3k. Trans is clunky, not sure if I like the gm frame rust proofing, engine can sound strange at higher rpms with no turbo spool. It's just a strange pickup, but it's also surprising capable off road etc. Just needs upgrades
Floor shifter as in manual transmission? Or are you talking transfer case? Manual is obviously a no-go but GM also did away with floor shift transfer cases all together starting in 2019 on the 1500s and 2020 on the HD.
@@killercan10 nothing as serious as that, I only want bucket seats and not having a column shifter. Hence a “floor” shifter. Perhaps console shifter would have been a better descriptive term.
@@SWFLSlimJim Ah I see. For whatever reason, GM only pairs a console shift lever with the 10 speed trucks, so LT trim and higher with buckets and console, double and crew cab. 10 speed is 5.3, 3.0 diesel and the 6.2, and the console shifter is shift by wire.
No, to my understanding on the U.S Chevy website it’s only the 5.3 or a 2.7. They’re keeping the 3.0 and 6.2 limited to the more expensive configurations and trim levels. 😞
Oh for sure! That sounds like an awesome truck! 😎 I’ve driven a couple full size Coyote trucks, and use to love watching videos of Whipple supercharged regular cabs.
Very true lol. But GMs probably tuned the sound to be noticeably to help convince potential buyers. Especially since less than half of trucks on the road are actually used for truck purposes these days. 🤷♂️😂
I don’t remember exactly what I said in this video, but if you drive say a sports focused car back to back with any modern truck, it’s astonishing how sloppy feeling and pronounced the body roll most trucks have haha. 🤪
Comes w/ 5 year 100,000 mile drivetrain warranty. 430 ft lbs of torque from I4 turbomax compared to 383 from 5.3 V8. Same payload & towing, costs $6,000 less (buys 40,000 miles worth of 87 octane gasoline), better mpg. No brainer.
I wish GM would at least offer the 5.3 option in the single cab short bed.
At least you can get a single cab Silverado with a 5.3 and 8 foot bed! It’s still a lot of fun! I’m currently driving one.
Keep wishing pal. Go with me to the dark side and get that 5.0.
@@kellyfontes7757 as a all time Chevy guy probably an Ford F-150 single cab sleeper package would be the best bet
@kellyfontes7757 i just went from a 18 rcsb 5.3 to a 2022 rcsb 5.0 😂 I'm a chevy guy but I'm not disappointed!
They do I just got one
I got this truck in glacier metallic blue I love it I get so many compliments on it
That’s a beautiful color!
I love this truck . Bought it last month . It’s amazing .
Nice! 🤩
Did you get the tow package? What is the payload capacity? Thank you, Jake
I need to see longevity on these babies
Thanks for the review, I bought this truck today.

Thank you, I will enjoy it.. been wanting this exact truck for quite awhile.@@AutomotiveAnonymous208
I just ordered me one of these in Red, I'm changing the wheel to 20 inch black factory wheels with 35 inch BFG's. Its gonna be too sweet.
That is going to be sweet!!

A lot of people seem to really like their 2.7! 🤩

I have a silverado TB with the 5.3 and I average about 16. If I'm heavy with the cruise control I can get 18.

I completely forgot that they offered a longer warranty on the 2.7! I’m glad you found that out and thanks for sharing that here.

That’s awesome! Which one do you prefer to drive most often?

If You like the sound of a Honda Civic !
I am a GM guy since 1992. That said I am buying a similar F 150 with the 5.0.
I don’t blame you, those 5.0 10 speed short bed trucks are no joke.
This is refreshing I hardly ever see these unless it’s wrapped with company logos . And I’m thinking this model would be a little bit quicker than the crew cab.
For sure! This was definitely a fun little truck. 🙂
Perfect truck!
They’re pretty sweet!
My favorite !
They’re neat trucks!
The one Silverado with a 4 cylinder that I would buy. Any larger than this, I’m getting the V8 or the Diesel.
Getting a Colorado trail boss with that same engine blow of valve is sick tho!
Nice! That’s gonna be a cool truck. 😎
I don’t want a Turbo.
Good review, Bud
Very beautiful!
Yeah, these are cool trucks!
In all the truck reviews I have seen, NOONE actually loads it up and delivers the payload! You know, like a truck! 0-60 who cares? its a truck!
Lol, that’s a good point! I’m surprised that some of the dedicated truck channels don’t have a system to test that and share how well the truck dynamics look and feel once loaded. My focus is more geared towards performance and 0-60.
I have this exact same truck
Same color same grille same cab same bed etc
That’s neat! How do you like it?

@@user-bt1mq1zw4ti think thats just GM and ford tbh. I have my single cab short bed f150 5.0 and has the 10 speed and it also sounds clunky
How’s the suspension stiffness? I own a 2021 regular cab and it is so stiff
In my opinion it doesn’t feel that much different than other Customs or LTs I’ve driven.
Badass
It’s on my short list, I just wish I could get the floor shifter with the 2.7.
That would be cool!

6:52 Your oil pressure looks to be on the low side? Is that normal for this engine?
That’s a good observation, I’m not familiar with this platform enough to personally know. Hopefully someone else can answer your question soon!
It's normal.
Im seeing the regular cabs with the 5.3 on dealer lots. Can you get the 6.2 or maybe 3.0 duramax?
No, to my understanding on the U.S Chevy website it’s only the 5.3 or a 2.7. They’re keeping the 3.0 and 6.2 limited to the more expensive configurations and trim levels. 😞
Towing capacity?
Regular cab, short box? Or just long? I think the shorty is 2.7 only.
You thought that was fun, try the regular cab short bed f150 with the 5.0, love my 2022.
Oh for sure! That sounds like an awesome truck! 😎 I’ve driven a couple full size Coyote trucks, and use to love watching videos of Whipple supercharged regular cabs.
Not bad at all.
Like the truck just not the new engine they sound like something is wrong I’ve only heard 2 running so far but definitely don’t like it
I hear you. These are cool in that you can really hear the turbo in person lol.
If you're getting a truck primarily for how it sounds, you don't need a truck. You need validation.
Very true lol. But GMs probably tuned the sound to be noticeably to help convince potential buyers. Especially since less than half of trucks on the road are actually used for truck purposes these days. 🤷♂️😂
That is terrible a 4.8-5.3 v8 is not an option, the sound off a ls v8 cam man o man.
Am I the only one who did not see the dashboard flexing?
I don’t remember exactly what I said in this video, but if you drive say a sports focused car back to back with any modern truck, it’s astonishing how sloppy feeling and pronounced the body roll most trucks have haha. 🤪
they are alpaca's
Thanks for the correction! 😜
Garbage engine
It’s definitely not for everyone!
I have one. Its a great little engine.
?
Needs a small block v 8.
Comes w/ 5 year 100,000 mile drivetrain warranty. 430 ft lbs of torque from I4 turbomax compared to 383 from 5.3 V8. Same payload & towing, costs $6,000 less (buys 40,000 miles worth of 87 octane gasoline), better mpg. No brainer.
We will allow you to have an opinion. Just this once. It is a nice truck.
Lol, thanks! 😅 I put this video together over a month ago, it was a neat experience.
