I will be watching this post. I am also curious, I hear good feedback from several owners.

I got one in a Yukon XL for the wife. Love it. The engine has got up to 30mpg in this huge vehicle and typically averages 25 mpg

35K miles currently

My sister also has one in a Tahoe. No engine fault, but the transmission went out at 30K miles. It was replaced of course, but does concern me.

I would say it’s too early to tell the longevity, but I like it initially.

I’d liked to tow Fancy Gap with the 3.0 in a new 1500 GMC / Chevy in front of my trailer. Following the 6.2 and read about more than usual with rod/ crank and bearing failures recently.

I’m just thinking about my next daily. Need 4wd. Light duty. Roomy for this fella. 4 door. I have 225k on my 2011 Yukon Denali
It’s going to have to be replaced at some point with something a few years old.
I don’t need luxury

I bought my 24 gmc crew cab 10 months ago. Slt package, along with the max tow package. I am.very impressed with this.. currently at 28k miles, Zero issues. City / high mix averages 26+ mpg. Highway is usually 29 - 32 mpg. This is in western pa, so definitely hilly around here. It towed my 24 ft enclosed weighing about 9500# as good as my 2 previous 6.2L crew cabs i had, maybe eve. A bit better due to the low end torque is better with the diesel. I am very pleased with this truck. This is my first diesel. I was going to get a 2500, but even though they don't ride bad, I wanted the smoother ride. I will add air bags this spring as the trailer does squat it a little., even with the weight distribution bars.
