    I own the 2020 GMC Sierra AT4 6.6L V8 Gas version. On mine, I remove the hitch and ball, and enjoy that tailgate for all of its features.
    Probably the last truck I'll ever buy, I love it!

    Thanks for the great real world use review. I ended up buying a 2021 ram 3500 hemi and kinda wish I had done more research on the new GMC/Chevy 3500 gas first. Looks very practical and I like the new engine and how there’s a lot more access points to reach in the bed. These new trucks really do sit up so tall for no reason. I blame that on the fact that most ppl who buy these trucks have never pulled a trailer on their lives and don’t use the trucks as trucks. They Only care about sitting up high and wasting money on lift kits and aftermarket rims

It averages 17.3 mpg and will pull anything I ask it too. The four wheel drive comes in handy often since it is a long bed because traction can be a challenge sometimes.

The only reason I don’t want to upgrade is that the truck is already paid off. I’d get 6.6 gas as well. Perhaps I will when GM upgrade their interior too lol

    I bought a 2020 Chevy Silverado 2500 6.6 gas recently. Previous had a Ford F150 with 5.0 (2016) for towing my 27 foot bunkhouse camper. Empty weight around 6400 pounds. The ford struggled towing on the interstate loaded with gear and the family. This 2500 gas I bought is bigger all around and man will it tow.. The Chevy put it on cruise with camper and it will role out and hold your speed. Awesome video and yes need more reviews of these trucks.

    I drive so much in town and short trips, but still want to tow a considerable amount, so a gasser 2500/3500 makes sense for me, at least. My 8 mile commute and tons of short trips would kill all the emissions equipment on a diesel long term.

    • @HalfCrazy520
      @HalfCrazy520 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, a diesel is not for you. Unless you tow more than 6 tons, or tow A LOT, you'd be wasting your money if you were to pony up for the diesel.
      My commute is 60 miles each way. I tow a 5-ton trailer at least 8500 miles a year. I haul 2100 lb cubes of brick in the bed. . Neither of my two diesels have ever even done a re-gen. Either will average 19.5 mpg commuting and 11.5-12 mpg towing 5 tons. Lately I've been driving the GMC 3500 Denali Duramax and my grandson has been driving my Ram 2500 Cummins.

    Never understand why people say its so hard to find a gasser. Just ORDER it!!! (you can still negotiate price). That was what I had to do to get my 2020 Ram 2500 MegaCab with the 6.4 Hemi and 4.10 limited slip rear end. I tow a 30' 9k TT and this truck is great in both the grades and the flats. Yes it is a bit thirsty and uses 89 octane, but I knew that going in. Also the interior is far better than anything that Ford or Chevy/GMC offer. In addition I got the bed step and that works great getting up into the bed. Went up and back on if I should get the rear air suspension but glad I decided to do it. Makes it a lot easier hitching up. The Ram boxes are great for storage. When ordering I deleted the spray in bed liner as I knew I was going to get it done by Line-X (color matched). Then I finished it off with a Retrax Powertrax tonneau cover. Love, love, love my Truck!!!

    I currently own a 2018 1500 Sierra Denali. Coming from a 2014 lt silverado was a big upgrade and I like the 6.2 in the Sierra. The 8 speed is what I hate the most. Hunting for gears in 40mph traffic. I’m looking to go to a 2500 6.6L gas truck.
    I can live with out the rear sliding glass, sunroof. Cooled seat don’t work well unless your in thin clothes. The things I would want on a 2500 chevy would be heated seats, steering wheel, center console, led bed lights and led headlights. The Denali has been nice for the 17k miles I’ve put on it but way over the top in options I never use.

    As a yacht owner with gas engines, I would do the same for a HD truck. Gas engines are way cheaper to buy, maintain, and (if you use it enough) eventually replace. Diesel ownership is so much more expensive than gasoline you will never make it up in diesel fuel savings. When you will need a diesel is for daily heavy towing.

It's been totally reliable, no recalls, no breakdowns, nothing but by the book maintenance. '08 and '09 were very reliable years. I don't know about newer years but my dealership service manager who is a close friend tells me he is seeing 6.0 with over 250,000 miles and still going strong. That's my experience.

      I know a few guys who drive HD trucks in a city. It can be done, but not without patience and challenges. I used to drive a crew cab half ton in downtown Denver and after a while I just got tired of trying to always make it work - parking mainly. Turning in and short trips weren’t an issue. And in the suburbs I had zero problems. Only going downtown was it a pain.

    Awesome video! I love my 2020 Chevrolet 3500 LTZ 6.6L gasser! I have the OEM hard trifold tonneau cover. The front section folds back so that I can access my tools in the front of the bed while the bed is full of camping equipment. I frequently use the bed side steps for the front bed access. I decided on the Chevy vs. the GMC due to the tailgate. I did not want the GMC multi-pro tailgate due to the possibility of accidentally hitting the hitch. I like the Chevy power tailgate, which goes up and down by itself. Like your cousin says the gassers are extremely hard to find. I have no power issues while towing. The Chevy handles better than my old 2015 Ford F250 Lariat 6.7L Diesel. I love the interior of the Chevy, which is light years better than my old Ford. I hear on TH-cam that some do not like the Chevy / GMC interiors. I believe that GM has continuously improved the interior. Everything works and is logically (organized) placed. GM is supposed to update the interior soon anyway. Love the hard buttons vs. the RAM's too large of a screen. If you want to see a dated interior, then look at the Toyota Tundra interior. Chevy / GMC combined are outselling Ford this year with this interior. I also use the awesome Chevy camera system especially in tight spots while camping or parking. Some campgrounds and parking lots are tight on the east coast.

Actually when Ford stopped making that generation of HD trucks in 2016 it was an 18 year old design. Ford also continuously improved their interior design of that generation also. I also compared the interior to the current trucks available.

    I’ve owned 2 6.4 Hemi 2500 gas trucks and just bought my first diesel; 2500 2019 CTD in which I’ve owned for about 9 mons now. I love this Cummins but now that winter is here I’m missing the simplicity of my gas truck. Deleting is not an option for me because I need that warranty in case my CP4 pump blows up .. lol. I’ll give it sometime but if I start running into issues I’m going back to gas. For context: I pull a 30’ TT in the summers and DD the truck the rest of the year. Peace!

I was clapping and cheering the day GM announced they were offering the 6.6. there's many who hate diesels and don't frankly need all the expense of ownership for the little difference in capability the average person needs.

    15-17 mpg ain’t bad at all for a 3/4 ton gasser. It’s be really neat to see a chart on how long it takes a diesel’s minimal fuel mileage increase to make up for its higher maintenance costs and ~$9K price hike. Obviously if a diesel is really required it’s a moot point.

      I’ve seen it done before, It’s something like 230,000+ miles to make up the difference in price. But it depends on the trucks and the price of fuel where you live. There are places where diesel is cheaper than gas, and places “like where I live” where diesel is 30-50 cents more expensive per gallon

    Great review and great to see a gas HD truck! Diesels get all the focus but I think that modern big gas engines that GM, Ford and Ram are putting in the HD trucks are hugely under-rated. I also don't get the hate on the GM interiors, honestly the interior on the LT Trail Boss I almost bought is what almost sold me on it. Great interiors, I think the Ford (pre-2021) and GM interiors are neck and neck, with Ram being a little better and Toyota being a little dated.
    Also new trucks are too damn tall. I miss my old '99 as I did the first "dump run" in my 2020 yesterday and couldn't reach half the bed. And I'm 6 foot 2!

    I bought a 2020 GMC Denali back in January with the 6.6 gas and I love it. I have gotten as high as 19+ mpg on interstate trips and it pulls my trailers very well with plenty of power. I drive tractor trailers for a living and couldn’t see spending 10k more for a diesel and having to deal with the DEF systems in a pickup truck. 90 percent of the modern diesels issues are on the DEF systems and I don’t trust them. That new 6.6 gas has tons of power and torque and is not much different pulling trailers than my brothers 2018 Denali diesel.

    The only comment I have is that I own a 2500 HD diesel and when I tow my trailer, which I do on a regular basis I don't even know I have a trailer behind me. My previous truck was a 2500 HD gas and there is no comparison in torque and power between the diesel and the gas, the diesel for my application wins hands down, fuel economy is dramatically different too, diesel is much more economically when towing.

    15 to 17 unloaded is actually pretty amazing for a gasser. Everyone I know that has a 6.0 gas 3/4 ton is around 10-12. If I could get in there at 15-17 unloaded, I'd ditch my diesel in a heartbeat. 90% of my driving is unloaded. But I have to tow a 30 foot enclosed tandem axle at about 10,000 lbs too.

      Right now, I have a 2018 Ram 2500 Cummins and GMC 3500 Denali Duramax L5P/Allison-6 speed. Commuting I get 19 mpg and change in either truck. Towing 10K lbs the Ram gets 12 and the GMC gets 11 (my Ford gasser got 6). With the power uphill, the exhaust brake downhill, and the greater fuel economy of the diesels, it would be a big sacrifice to go back to a gas truck for doing work.
      I was never a General Motors kinda guy... I still think the Ram looks better and I prefer the Ram interior, but this GMC 3500 rides so nice and has so much power that it won me over.
