Bro but I need a fun car. I need one that handles well.

This the gm version of the Lincoln truck right?

Interior is a huge improvement over the previous gen. $80k though for a 5.5 bed. At that price I'd rather a TRX or Raptor tbh. More capability and faster.

 

[whatever]

ahh yes. when you want the interior from 6 years ago in your brand new truck

 

[fuct.]

AT4X piqued my interest for about 5 minutes, but i'd rather have a raptor or a new tundra TRD pro.

 

[.chris]

I can say with absolute certainty that is a truck

 

[Scottwax]

The front end is repulsive.

 

[Jumpem]

Is Ford still the only manufacturer using aluminum for the bodies?

 

[Jon91SE]

Is Ford still the only truck worth getting?

Yes

 

[93rx7]

imagine getting excited about a half ton pickup

 

[TheProwler]

definitely no excitement

 

[zedekias]

I can already hear the squeaking of those steering wheel audio trim pieces

My new Colorado (at the time) had a HORRIBLE steering wheel squeak after like 5k miles.

The only fix was jamming a piece of rubber under the horn and undoubtedly compromising the airbag. Worth it tho.

No RAM for home?

Supercruise is standard on Ultimate - It's part of the reason the gap between Denali and Ultimate is like $15k or 20k whatever,

I don't mind the carbon bed, I'd like the dark accents, supercruise, and the diesel. I'm just hoping the diesel is a no cost options since the 6.2 is spendy on other models

Standard, but half come with an addendum removing it

 

[I<3URANUS]

The interior that it should've come with in 2019. I can't believe GM released that truck with that original interior. It would've looked out of place in 2009, nevermind 2019.

They tried to say that GM customer's don't want fancy interiors, that they want something functional, etc. Lol. I wish I could find the article.

 

[Wolf]

It does look very nice.

But it also looks like complete overkill.

 

[jaunt]

I'm sure the icons on the buttons will rub off in 20k miles.

 

[Menger]

what's a ~ medium trim (leather, good radio) with Supercruise gonna run

thoughts on 6.2 vs 3.0 diesel?

 

[JohnnyBeagle]

GM lol

thoughts on 6.2 vs 3.0 diesel?

Depends what you want.. I have a friend who has one, he loves it. In town mileage is great, highway mileage is great... he tows a 5k boat - truck gets 17-18 doing it...

3.0 is gonna make nearly all torque at a low RPM, and get 25-30 mpg (lots of factors here) on the interstate. It's a Diesel engine that was designed from the ground up for use in a half ton truck, and is really well designed. I think the one thing that scares people (which IMO is a non issue) is the oil pump is driven by a submerged belt. Service of this belt requires splitting of the engine and trans, but it is scheduled to last 150k+++. Complete non issue for me.

6.2 is a fucking blast to drive, but in town mileage won't be as good as the diesel.. but it will get low 20's on the interstate. The 6.2 does have some valve issues, I believe them to be sporadic.

The diesel will come with the usual diesel things - DEF, fuel filter changes (not sure on interval), and managing the fuel in the winter. There are no "tunes" yet to tune out the emissions components, but we all know its probably coming. Banks is working on a "Derringer" tuner.

 

[Cashishift]

GM lol

Can't tell if you are adding fuel to the fire - or legit feel this way.

I just dont know if I can buy a RAM

SuperCruise won't be available on every trim.

For GMC - Denali - on Denali Ultimate its a standard feature.
For Chevy - High Country

For Chevy and GM - you have to upgrade to the 6.2 or the 3.0... (Denali Ultimate these are the only engine options available)
