[@GG-hd8rr]

Definitely the best truck out there hands down. Next choice would be the cummins ram. No more choices out there really. Can't wait to scrap my ford

[@Tully3674]

This is a classic TFL Truck video that I've been missing. Almost gave up on you folks! Stay with what works - Progress is OK but stop trying to reinvent the wheel.

[@SF-fm7ov]

I was happy to see you use cruise control on the way down. People have been saying that is what they do when going down steep descents. It is nice to see how well it actually works. One big reason to buy a diesel...exhaust brake.

[@nathanlivingston3445]

I always thought you guys should use the cruise control for the downhill. I use it on I 70 every time I head down to Dillon. The truck does great using the grade shifting, but you have to drop the cruise control about 5mph under the posted limit. If you do that no need to him the brakes.

[@gibbons025]

I like the Super Ike. It's good you guys are maxing these trucks out on towing, showing their true capabilities Thanks and I enjoy your show, looking forward to seeing all the new 2017 models.

[@billd5211]

I'd love to see a video about the cameras

[@gt40x4]

when the back end of the truck is higher than the front its called rake, for future reference.

[@austinbaylor2613]

Crazy how low gm rates their trucks. 12,000lbs. Most people tow 40' tow haulers that weight a lot more empty and still have zero problems

[@unknown_truckers]

The guy in the video is a dumb ass its actually rated 17000 pounds for the goosneck, bothered me too

[@Icutmetal]

Unknown Trucker You’re calling him a dumbass, but don’t understand the fact that he’s actually 100lb over his 10k GVWR. It’s a 2500, dude- you’ll exceed payload before hitting max towing and/or combined weight rating. Gotcha.

[@MrRGiller]

Looks like the Chevy truck did pretty good.

[@bryane2857]

I love the Brand loyalist who dish other brands. Can't appreciate a nice truck. This is a nice truck, if you don't like it, don't buy it. Pretty easy. Or just go to your Brands channel and watch them do the ike gauntlet for your truck. Oh wait, they don't have one. Guess you'll just have to suffer threw this brutal video or this pitiful truck that most of you only dream of having.

[@fordrac1ng81]

I'm a ford guy and wish I could buy this chevy. Perfect setup for me to tow a single car trailer or a toy hauler on the weekend but rides nice enough to drive to work unloaded.

[@SQ8warrior]

I'm fine with any brand, I just don't enjoy Chevy hiding their vibration issues... almost bought one despite only blog posts. then I felt it at a dealer in a new 1500... unacceptable.

[@DarienSeminoff]

Very well said.

[@sokodad]

SQ8warrior don’t know what vibration issues you’re talking about. None with mine and have 17,000 miles.

[@jsverner]

Much better than watching the news!

[@hummerguy]

Lol

[@originalskyz960]

Jk, love you h1

[@damienfosi]

Ford family but these Chevy's are beautiful. I now have set my goals for a Duramax now lol

[@PFNasz]

I didn't realize the 3/4 ton was only rated for 12K. I may be over that with my trailer and truck but mine is 2011.

[@charliesnipes7313]

Andre, you can refer to the bed being higher than the front as "rake".

[@fordrac1ng81]

I would love to see a new video of one of the GMCs with magnetic ride and see how you like it unloaded/towing. That's the one thing I've been looking at in a new truck. Magride is freaking awesome for those of us who run unloaded much of the time.

[@corvet57]

This is the truck, which I would definetly buy !!!

[@discountmodel7498]

Also one of the only trucks that looks good with a long bed.

[@upgrade1393]

I love my 05 Silverado extended but hate not knowing how much gas I have instrument cluster went out in2014

[@LowsJuan]

So unless you can defeat the side cameras turning on when you use the turn signal I would not order the camera package and look at aftermarket solution with a separate screen.

[@tritchie6272]

Like some have said on here,it would be odd for a 2500 to only be rated 12 something. I think the Cummings titan is rated for that much. On a side note I do think its a good looking truck. I tend to like the body syleing of Dodge but I believe I would be happy to own that Chevy.I got an 01 Dodge ram and after I got it we found out that my wife can't get up in it without alot of help. Her knee buckled from arthritis when she tried. I think it has a slight lift.I like the Truck but their is that draw back to think of.I have been told that chevy is lower to the ground and would be easier for her to get in and out of.So I have found myself looking at chevys more.

[@cmusic52]

great sponsors, Big Tex trailers are great trailers n air lift suspensions are great things to have if your doin any heavy haulin

[@olsem101]

Andre, correct me if i am wrong here, but i think when you named off the cameras around 6:30, that you missed one. If that truck has lane keeping assist, there is a camera hidden up behind the rear view mirror that looks for the lines on the highway.

[@yafolla]

Not a truck expert or a car expert...just a network engineer. Question: why don't you use cruise control on the way up as well? Keep up the great show!

[@juan_ctzz]

Living in Texas my cruise control would sit around umm 100 lmao

[@danthonyphillips1617]

😂😂😂 so does this Escalade

[@SatinSilverStang]

Do a super ike with the 2016 F-150 3.5 EcoBoost so we can compare it to the new 2017 with the revised engine & new 10 speed!

[@BadmunkyWRX]

Love the video! But I have a request for you guys. You do the Ike gauntlet with the trucks at, or vary close to there max. And this is a great test! But most of us that actually own these trucks, rarely, if ever, max them out. I'm a good example of this. I own a 2015 Silverado 2500HD 6.0L Z71 Crew cab. I bought this truck because I did not like the way my last 1500 handled my loaded trailer. I tow a 18' car trailer with my Jeep on it on the weekends. Loaded it comes in right about 6,500lb. Almost exactly half the trucks rated 13k bumper pull. This is actually vary common as many of the guys in my 4WD club have 2500s, and most pull under 8k primarily. I would love to see some testing of these trucks at half the rated tow capacity!!! I know I could have bought a 1500. And many people do when towing 7k or less. But my last 1500 (A 2007 5.3l 4x4 chevy) did not handle this load as well as I would have liked. And after pulling it with a 2016 Silverado 1500 double cab 4x4 5.3L truck while my truck was in the shop, I can say that I made the right call moving to a 2500. Yes it got it down the road. Yes it was safe. But you could tell the truck was close to its limits, and the trailer had more control over the truck then I like. (Purposing, and movement in the truck caused by the trailer.) I had tried a weigh distribution hitch with my last truck. And it helped a lot, but the 2500 without a weight distribution hitch controls the trailer better then my 1500 did with one. I really want to see some testing with the trucks loaded more like the average owner actually loads them. Remember, for every guy out there towing a goose neck maxing his truck out, there is a guy that dose not even tow with his. And there is a guy like me that keeps it around half its max. You guys do a great job! Keep it up!!!!

[@mohammedalhosani9405]

Thats a very good looking truck ,I'll check it out in the dealer and see what they got

[@musclebymike1382]

Okay, I'm learning diesel engines and towing... So I was at a Chevy site and it states "2015 Chevy 2500HD 6.6 turbo diesel was rated 397 hp and 765 lb-ft of torque on tap. That lets you tow up to 13,000 pounds with a traditional hitch, and tow up to 17,900 pounds with a fifth wheel hitch". So the difference in what a Gooseneck and hinge plating tow for this truck in 5,900 lbs. That's a big difference to be based on how it's connected to the truck. If I'm not understanding this correctly, someone help me out.

[@VegasJPH]

Loved that midnight edition duramax but I found a 2015 Denali in Iridium Metallic at a good price with under 90k miles & couldn't pass on it.

[@jesusdehoyos760]

What’s the price on that truck , Or what are they going for ?

[@daneldreth6764]

You are quoting 2500HD GAS model towing weight ratings. The Duramax 2500HD is rated at 17,900lbs.

[@TFLtruck]

+Dan Eldreth it depends on the truck's configuration. This is a fact that many truck buyers misunderstand.

[@daneldreth6764]

I know what the weight is. I own one. See page 11... www.chevrolet.com/content/dam/Chevrolet/northamerica/usa/nscwebsite/en/Home/Vehicles/Commercial/02_PDFs/MY15-Trailering-Guide.pdf

[@daneldreth6764]

You can in fact tow more weight in a bumper pull configuration than you quoted as max weight in a GN/5'er configuration.

[@darrylabraham4772]

Dan Eldreth can't pull that much with a long bed and big tires it take off some of the maximum towing capacity you know that that's only for a Pacific model not all the 2500 HD can pull the same weight

[@darrylabraham4772]

Dan Eldreth not all of them can do that you dummy

[@DLK262]

Gotta love a Chevy!

[@bartonmd]

Having had 2 sets of them, I'll tell you that the floating feeling you're feeling is the Duratrac tires. They float really bad for the first 2000 miles or so, and don't get really stable until they're like 1/3 worn, when some of the siping goes away.

[@HuevoDuro702]

Mr truck is the best!

[@painterdood2484]

You guys say the max tow cap for the 2500hd Duramax is around 12k and the GCWR is just over 20k.. Why does the Chevrolet Towing guide add over 4k to your numbers?

[@dannyyee6923]

Painter Dood I think they were quoting the gas version. it was a horrible example.

[@MrNeuroticRA]

Mr. Trucks boots rock!

[@sugonmaballs]

"Lemme tell ya sumthin 'bout ma Chevy Silveraydo!" =p

[@NordicNevs]

Pretty sure that GVWR is 24,500. The 6.0 has it in the 20k ranger. You guys had a lot more room on that trailer. Retest so it can be measured equally against the others that will be tested please. 👍🏻

[@blake2456]

The 6.6L with gooseneck is rated for 18,000

[@ArmandoManzo310]

Can you guys do a Silverado 1500 6.2L vs Silverado 3500 6.6L diesel or 2500 6.6L diesel

[@Icutmetal]

Armando Manzo What would be the purpose in that?

[@drizzlesquad6758]

The camera on the side mirror is like Honda lane watch

[@TFLtruck]

+coopdrizzle 289 yes, very similar.

[@1guyin10]

You never know. It might even be the same supplier for both systems. Things like that are rarely developed by the automakers themselves.

[@alvilla701]

honda split the screen on half so you can also see the navigation

[@TheNugler]

GM makes great trucks

[@aidancrawford9989]

just a suggestion, if you guys use the cruise control on the way down, i think you guys should go back to taking the temperature of the brakes to see if they were being used by the system or not. other wise i like the idea of using the cruise control because most people will most likely be using it

[@daneldreth6764]

When you use the cruise in tow/haul with the exhaust brake on, it will maintain its speed via computer going downhill with no brakes

[@aidancrawford9989]

+Dan Eldreth interesting

[@ChloeDunIT]

Awesome! Loving the super Ike!!

[@geraldthomas218]

Pardon me, but those super gorgeous mountain regions....

[@jamesbeaman6337]

Is TFL Truck not using a scoring system for the Super Ike Gauntlet? Or is it purely a time thing?

[@TFLtruck]

+James Beaman super Ike is purely based on time since each truck will pull a different weight based on the trucks highest capacity.

[@aidancrawford9989]

it seems to be in a testing faze still since it's new for them. so they might bring it back for it

[@TFLcar]

The Ike scoring system will come back when we do 2017 Gold Hitch awards Ike Gauntlets. This will be starting in December.

[@roba168]

they sent you guys a murdered out heavy duty are you kidding me

[@ryanforrest7142]

All newer trucks are very very gay!!

[@carmencolumbusohio]

BAD ASS TRUCK!

[@Mebob2001]

very nice, should be sweet to see the other 2 go at it, the Ram honestly i think will struggle with 3.42 rear end. no idea what ford will have

[@The02CumminsRAM]

I don't think any of these 2500 diesel trucks will struggle at all, especially just going the speed limit. I've taken my Ram 3500 SRW MC (Non-Aisin same as a 2500) and 10k trailer up similar grades in Arizona going 70 miles an hour with that 3.42 rear end.

[@Davedimmensions]

Best excuse to pass a hitchhiker... "We're overweight". Good form Andre.

[@ahuds7490]

Our big Tex trailer we have had for 3 years and kept inside, the boards are rotten. Is that a normal problem?

[@mattreb5748]

The only reason that truck down shifted at the top of fhe hill was to cool down the turbo

[@AgentSmith911]

What a beautiful truck

[@Hmmm-ILikePancakes]

Just a heads up, your description says Midnight editing not edition

[@whiteduck491]

what about the 2017 duramax diesel 2500 with the hood scoop? when are u guys gonna run that one up the hill?

[@trevormangus7832]

You guys have done many off road test truck comparisons but WHY have you not done the heavy duty's against each other ? Chevy 2500 4x4 z71 vs Ford F250 4X4 FX4 vs Ram 2500 4X4 use ALL available options gas engines vs gas or diesel vs diesel throw in the powerwagon and use comparable tires the fords come with Michelin and Toyo's USE TOYO's the powerwagon and Z71 have more agressive tires than Michelin

[@kevinkuna7382]

When are you guys going to bring the new Honda Ridgeline on the ike? Curious to see how it will do.

[@MDKN22]

I can easily see the trailer saying. Look at Ford. Their innovation into the best towing, best payload, best safety, and best tech. Ford even came up with a standard Trailer Sway Control system. My dad doesn't even know that he is towing a trailer in behind him because of the TSC system! Something a Chevy, Dodge Ram, Toyota, or Nissan doesn't have it!

[@CasperRc81]

Ha you can't bought if you could go back in time PDI a 2006 power stroke 4dr long bed 4x4 and that thing will dam near sway the ass from under you at 65-80mph some scary ass shit. And trust me there was some complaints in the dealer fo show. But man there powers was bitchin even for the time!!

[@SkeldZ06]

Why do you guys have this one unlisted?

[@TFLtruck]

+Skeld Because we want to publish/schedule it next week.

[@TFLcar]

The Lincoln restoration project is still paused.

[@loganrichards5218]

That's nowhere near loaded to the maximum.

[@xoroark33]

Facts

[@Icutmetal]

Logan Richards That truck doesn’t have much payload capacity left for the pin weight of a big gooseneck like that. A 2500 will often hit GVWR before its GCVWR.

[@dustinshepard3166]

[@MrTruckTV]

Thanks, they match my grandsons

[@sly9263]

How'd you guys manage to get one that didn't have an imbalanced driveshaft?

[@billmcgregor4112]

Never heard of an HD GM truck that had that problem, only the 1500's.

[@sly9263]

***** there are plenty of complaints going through all recent 1500/2500/3500 models due to vibration if you search it

[@billmcgregor4112]

Robert Kavanagh Well the drives haft hasn't changed on the heavy duties since 2011 so I fail to see how they could have a problem now.

[@sly9263]

***** the idea is that its quality issues, not a new type of driveshaft. Their high and low points are way out of tolerance and some points on the shafts are high/low about a quarter rotation from each other.

[@billmcgregor4112]

Robert Kavanagh Well I have heard about/experienced this on the 1500's ever since they went to the K2 platform and switched driveshafts. First I'm hearing of it with the heavy duty trucks though.

[@gmcdenali7178]

Will you be doing an Ike Gauntlet test on the new 2017 Sierra/Silverado with the new Duramax?

[@Gazooo29]

What's the common problems on the 6.6L, I know nothings bullet proof

[@aaronjones8341]

the older ones had head gasket issues back in 06 but other than that I can't think of anything else

[@dilsher12]

The very first gen LB7 also had injector issues. If you keep them stock they are pretty good engines . I mean like every other engine or peice of machinery something is gonna fail eventually pretty reliable engines other than that .

[@1guyin10]

It seems like on those first generation trucks the injector issues were just a matter of time. It's an expensive fix too. I know a couple of guys that have bought and turned several of them because of the injector issues.

[@dilsher12]

+1guyin10 Yup they'll definitely go after a certain amount of time and like you mentioned not easy to do . They improved the design later where the injectors were more accessible and easier to swap out

[@1guyin10]

dilsher12 They tell me that even after doing several it is still a chore to swap them out and the parts are not cheap. Still, if they can get the truck for the right price it is a good side income for them. Both drive nice 1st gens. After the injectors are taken care of they are good to go for a long time.

[@unknown_truckers]

Towing capacity is 17900 pounds with goosneck

[@elko85]

The guy with the accent reminds me of Bobo from the Howard stern show! Never shuts up!

[@tylerpetit33]

My buddy tows his 16500 lb 5th wheel with his with no problem.

[@forearmshiver5520]

It'd look real nice sitting in my driveway!

[@crazyhass84]

so if the super ike is towing the pathetic max of 12k lbs then the mega ike will be using the weights people act tow with? 62k truck and it is only rated to tow 12k. my 08 ram was rated at 14k and it had 650 lb ft. this has 785. come on gm!

[@daneldreth6764]

they are incorrect by a lot... 17k-17,900 depending on configuration

[@wsmcmc3864]

+Dan Eldreth Yes. I agree. Dan's numbers look correct to me. The payload of this truck is over 3000# also. I'll bet the king pin load rating is over 3500#. But for all the expense of these diesels I say bring back the 8.1 with an active fuel management system and 10 speed auto. I can replace an 8.1 for about the same as most pay for their first injector job so longevity of a diesel is moot. My son has made a good living off replacing Duramax injectors. As far as I know all brands of trucks require the cab to be removed from chassis for most common diesel engine repairs.

[@daneldreth6764]

+WSMC Mc I've owned 3 different Duramax trucks (1 LB7 and 2 LML's). I've never had to replace a single injector in the million + miles including the nearly 300,000 miles I put on my LB7 which was notorious for injector failure. Regardless of size, a gas engine won't pull as well as a diesel. There'll be constant shifting and will guzzle gas with the slightest of loads. My Dmax really doesn't care about what weight is behind it. The only thing that really effects my MPG's is sore resistance. -My 18' (12,500 GVW) equipment trailer with nothing on it (17.5 mpg) -Put a side by side or a skid steer on it and it goes to 14mpg -8.5'x24' (10k gvw) enclosed (v-nose and slant roof) 12.7mpg regardless of what's in it or empty.

[@daneldreth6764]

+Dan Eldreth *air resistance... stupid auto correct

[@CasperRc81]

It's a stated rating to cover their butts in a lawsuit because most people don't take owner ship over there actions. It will do more. I've towed close to 7k lbs with my 78' 4" lifted half ton blazer with a bla bla powered 350. And I could accelerate in and out of traffic no prob. Come on people not just you any manufacture makes a great truck I love them all. It's what defines us MEN/WOMEN in the truck community. It's just awesome to have all these choices!

[@stevencash3774]

I wanna see all of these trucks tested with manual transmissions. I and many others have been of the opinion that Manual transmissions are best for towing, I'd like to see if that's true.

[@1tylerproud]

The trailer weighed 12700lbs. The truck weighed 10100lbs. The gross combined weight was 22800lbs. But the vehicle max is 12900lbs and 10000lbs making maximum gross combined allowed 22900lbs. Is that right? You could have put 100lbs on the rear of the trailer before being absolutely maxed? Great video but I wish the stats were a little more clear. Thanks for the video.

[@Icutmetal]

Tyler Proud That truck does not weigh 10,100. You may be referring to its GVW.

[@frankjackson533]

[@dannyyee6923]

Andrew Hatton no you dont

[@Icutmetal]

Andrew Hatton Uh huh...🙄

[@matthard9633]

what could this bumper pull? this was basically the same weight as the titan, but I am new to 5th wheel towing. I know the tongue weight effects GVW differently between towing methods.

[@randy5020]

I dont know where these guys get their specs. Bumper pull on this truck is 13k and 5th wheel is 17-18 depending on the configuration

[@bahamatodd]

For this configuration, bumper is actually rated higher at 13,900 lbs (compared to 12,900 lbs with the gooseneck). Chevy's reasoning is that the gooseneck requires a higher tongue weight which is limited by the payload capacity.

[@daneldreth6764]

+Todd Wilson you can put nearly 3,000 in the bed

[@bahamatodd]

The loaded crew cab 4WD only has about 2500 lbs payload capacity. GM recommends 15-25% tongue weight with a gooseneck. The minimum 15% of 12,900 is 1935, plus the SAE required two passengers at 150 lbs each and 100 lbs of tow equipment already puts you at 2335 lbs. On the bumper only 10-15% tongue weight is required so the trailer can be heavier.

do you think that the 2017 ford raptor will be able to beat the power wagon #asknathan

[@user-tj9ks1zv7k]

I have a question about the gross vehicle weight. So the Chevy/GMC 2500 with a gooseneck trailer can only haul something as heavy as one car? I want to buy a Duramax Diesel 2500 next year and start a side business hauling.

[@ryanmcknz1]

A 3500 dually would probably serve you better in that case

[@dannyyee6923]

Smitty I was also surprised they said it was at max load. I think they can out more weight.

[@thelongdaysofwheeling124]

Looks like a very fatiguing truck to tow with the way Kent had to keep wrenching on the wheel.

[@daneldreth6764]

He's over driving the crap out of it. I have a '15 and drive it with 2 fingers.

[@thelongdaysofwheeling124]

Im sure the tongue weights are good.. as they preach that pretty hard, but that what it looks like. Too light on the front end and all over the road.

Andre take your 2002 Chevy duramax up and down the Ike gauntlet

[@JamesClark993311]

Hey there's a guy hitchhiking should we pick him up

[@freedomjesse]

You're not at the max. Maybe for a bumper pull trailer but definitely not a gooseneck. Who does your research for you? An eco boost f150 is rated for that much.

[@allenrust7359]

Who does your research? 2016 2500HD Crew Cab Long Box 4x4 Duramax 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 3.73 Max Payload 2,423 Max Conventional towing 14,500 Max fifth wheel/ gooseneck towing 12,900 And they say the are at their maximum gross combined weight rating. The problem is that the truck is so heavy. The regular cab 2wd 2500HD gets 14,500 conventional and 18,000 fifth wheel/gooseneck. The difference is the added weight of the crew cab, 4x4, diesel engine, etc. www.chevrolet.com/content/dam/Chevrolet/northamerica/usa/nscwebsite/en/Home/Help%20Center/Download%20a%20Brochure/02_PDFs/MY16%20Silverado%20HD%20eBrochure.pdf And an ecoboost may be rated that high, but again, for the stripped down base model regular cab 2wd. The crew cab 4x4 will be much lower.

[@Force606]

@@allenrust7359 this is incorrect, i have the GM brochure. max gooseneck is 17,400

[@RFJersey]

How bad was the "Chevy Shake"?

[@ScoobyDigites]

so is ifs or solid front axle better for the heavy towing and hauling

[@mattra5224]

How can the 3 quarter ton tow only a tow few hundred pounds more then my gas 2015 3 quarter ton

[@daneldreth6764]

Because these guys don't know trucks apparently. Grossly off on GN towing rating.

[@whyisntenstavalible]

Because ford didn't do the nite package in the early 90's.

[@leje-zj4dr]

And it looked just like this, right?

[@whyisntenstavalible]

+leje0306 yea but Ford has round wheel wells to fit bigger tires.

[@jamesbecker875]

Can the Chevy 2500 really only pull just under 13,000? That doesn’t sound right at all.

[@iammekanic9800]

Off the bumper it's 13k. It's 17900 for the 5th wheel/gooseneck

[@randythomason8947]

rated a little over 12000 pounds? there is half tons rated at that.

[@NordicNevs]

Rated a lot higher. 16400 for that configuration is the max towing cap
