    Calm down there Skeedoo Homo  I believe you on the 373's , it's just rare that's all .   They are good trucks and I won't say they are not even though GM is the biggest pos company on earth , they just get poor MPG's with the 6.0

    Lol.... "Homo". How cute.

    They all came with 4 10's .

    Huh.... My window sticker says 3.73, but I suppose I'm seeing things. Like I said I don't really care if any of you believe me. I'm certainly not on the interwebs to prove anything to anybody. This truck has been twice the truck compared to any of the other trucks I've had and I've been very happy with it, especially the mileage. Freak truck?? Maybe, but I'm glad i own it.

    I would think that there would be a big difference in MPG if you are comparing 3.73's to 4.10's

    Probably so. I've never really asked anyone who has a newer one what they are getting. Call me crazy (i know some already have), but this truck seems to have a sweet spot when cruising on the highway and it seems to be at 80.

    Do they all have the same gears in the read end?

    I'm not sure what the older trucks had. mine is a 2012 crew with 3.73's and is completely stock. i believe the newer ones have 4.10's. I'm not debating that they can be thirsty, especially when towing. I've seen as little as the 6's with a strong head wind. Fireball asked for mileage and I relayed my experience as an owner.

    I owned and drove a 2003 Silverado 2500 HD for  couple years and many miles. There is no scenario where the truck would get 15 mpg on the highway at 80....its impossible and that has been the experience of everyone I know that owned or owns one. At 80 on the freeway its a 11-12 mpg truck every time

     

    I dont really care if you believe me or not. That has been my experience. I have no reason to lie. And no its not impossible, because ive done it numerous times traveling to our cabin in northern Michigan. Like I said you're welcome to ride along.

    How did i know that you would be the first one...... i happen to own one, i drive it every day and if you'd like to ride along you're more than welcome too. Otherwise do yourself a favor and post in a forum where you know what you're talking about.

    Enjoy it now while you still can. As inconvenient as it may seem, it will be over before you know it. My youngest has been playing football for the last 10 yrs and will have the final game of his "career" next Friday. I'm pretty sure there will be a few tears shed by both of us.

    And what about Bill Clintons "victims"? That SOB should be in prison yet he was able to retain his presidency with Hillary by his side. I suppose she was a victim, too. She would've done anything to save her husbands political career which she knew would be part her future political aspirations. She's a lying, coverup artist and she learned it from the best.

    Have you read any of the Koran?

    Cap. I'm not debating what is in the Koran. What I am trying to get all of you to understand is not all Muslim believe everything that is in the Koran in the literal sense. My friends wife and daughters are suppose to wear a hajab (sp) any time they are in public yet they have a choice. His wife has her own business that he is not allowed to interfere with.  They are normal everyday people who happen to believe in another way of life. Im not the least bit afraid he is going to slit my throat the second he gets a chance because I happen to believe in God as opposed to Allah. We've had many discussions on the differences in our beliefs and we respect each other's differences.

    I have to agree with Snow. To broad brush a single group of people because of one nut job who happens to be Muslim is rediculous. I happen to work with a practicing Muslim who is one of the nicest people I have ever met and I would defend his right to stay in this country if any of the frothing at the mouth, anti-Muslim extremists decided to deport him and his family. he consistantly and vehemently denounces any act of violence perpetrated by ISIS or any extremist group in the name of Islam. He tells me all the time that this is not what Islam is about. My point and I think what Snow is trying to say is there have been many acts of violence that have been carried out by people who were identified as being "Christian", yet the crime was never labeled as such. Correct me if I'm wrong, Snow.

    Snow. As intelligent as you seem to be, you really have a hard time having a debate with someone without using cute little derogatory names. It does nothing but make your conversations here sound like they are coming from an immature 12 yr old or dare I say it...... the Donald Trump of Freedomsledder. Vince doesn't seem to have a problem. Maybe you should emulate him.

    One of the best, for sure. He was kind of gruff though. I managed to get his autograph for my son back in the mid 90's. I stuck my hand out to shake his hand and thank him and he looked at my hand and then at me and said "I'm not shaking that, I don't know where it's been." LMAO!! I still chuckle every time I think about that.
