Very nice pickup Mongo. Is it gas or Duramax?
I have always been a GM guy, I have a 2004 Silverado now, but am ready for a new truck. I love the style of the new Silverados, but am extremely disappointed at GM for their gas engine offering in the HD's. They are continuing to use the same 6.0 Vortec that they have used the past 15 years! Don't get me wrong, that engine is bulletproof, I have it in my truck, but it is completely out of date and underpowered compared to the offerings of the other two manufacturers (not to mention 14 mpg on a good day). GM offers a 420 hp 6.2 liter in the 1500 that is very modern and efficient. They should have put that motor standard in the new HD's, but its not even an option.
As a result, I'm starting to consider a new Ram 2500 with the 6.4 hemi. It has the modern fuel saving technology, plus 410 hp. There have been reports of people getting up to 18 mpg hwy!
GM has designed a great new truck, I'm sure you will enjoy it Mongo. I just hope they update their gas engine offering on those models.
