Duramax is the best diesel engine money can buy !!!

[@anthonyj810]

Jeffery Todd And the l5p is the best duramax you can buy as well

[@ChuckBeefOG]

Anthony Joubran No it's not. The pre- tier 4 emissions versions were the best. LBZ was the best version of this engine. Easy to tune, delete DPF. No DEF bullshit.

[@JohnDiMartino]

Gilbert McGillicutty I still think the Lb7 is way better,LBZ is an emission engine cat,and egr,and lousey pistons that crack,even on stock or mildly tuned engines. If GM hadn't cheapened the engine with made in China pistons and kept Mahle like the Lb7/ LLY they'd had the best Duramax for sure.

[@anthonyj810]

Gilbert McGillicutty Horsepower and torque wise it isn't. Also a tad bit better on MPG and seeing how it's a completely new design any issues from before are likely fixed now.

[@ChuckBeefOG]

John DiMartino. Didnt know they swapped pistons for that year. My work truck LBZ has efi live and makes probably close to 500hp on freak mode. No issues powertrain wise in 150,000km. The problem with the LB7/LLY is internal injectors, expensive and a pain in the ass to do. I have a work truck 05 LLYin stock form. Bought in new in 05 and it has 430,000km on it now. Head gasket is on its way and will need injectors at the same time. Havent touched it other than front end parts and body work. Truck is close to death but if i can find parts cheap enough i would like to see the truck do 700,000km, which it easily would.

[@DEVUNK88]

that was literally the best cold start I have ever seen! and done with the remote no less

[@DEVUNK88]

they may be, but I have seen much worse, I'd be happy with that, it was a bit choppy at idle though

[@chrisdellwo6986]

Keep in mind this thing was in very negative cold weather and hadn't been started for some time. It's pretty solid. The duramax has been a beast for years starting every plow day and time I had a customer want to look at one regardless of the temp

[@dylaanokay2980]

For all the chevy,dodge,and Ford fans the trucks are basically the same now... It just comes down which one looks better, and rides better to you. They all get the job done so do me a favor and quite saying that a certain trucks breaks down....

[@twis7edashice106]

I have to agree with you on that good one bro

[@atx-cvpi_99]

Ford is still considered the worst diesels you can buy. The 6.7 is better than the 6.0 and 6.4.

[@bullymaguire4457]

@@atx-cvpi_99 That 6.0 was a real workhorse, we had one at work and man that truck took a beating like a champ.

[@sethberringer8793]

Not even close to being the same. But I will agree they are way more reliable now then they where 10-20 years ago. But they still will break down, they still have problems, each have they're own specific issues

[@JimmieABES]

@@atx-cvpi_99 Far from the truth man. 6.7 rivals the 6.7 Cummins reliability

[@grantg98]

That's a REALLY nice truck

[@MrChevySiverado1500]

My lmm starts about the same at negative 30! Gotta love duramax. I've never had to plug one in. My lly was the same way too

[@WymiataczPlays]

Hello there, could I use a part of your video for my cold-starting compilation? of course I put a link to your original video in the description, increasing the original’s popularity too. Thank you for answer in advance :)

[@davidthornberry9085]

Do the new durmaxs not have the coils? I have Ford f250 6.4 and my truck def would not be starting in -10 a less i had it plugged in.

[@ChuckBeefOG]

David Thornberry Ford does next to nothing for cold testing. The have a refrigerated building the test to minus 10c. GM tests in Kapaskasing, North Ontario. -30c all winter. My 6L Ford wont start plugged in when its -25. My duramax will light right up not plugged in. Trucks will become accustomed to starting with a block heater if you use it too often. I only plug in at -20 and colder for the Chevys. The Ford is always plugged in.

[@craigkay2322]

First Shown High Country . Then Started Different Truck ! Pretty Hard Start !

[@Icutmetal]

Craig Kay What’s your point?

[@kennethfrese9348]

@@Icutmetal, I think the point is clear... why did he not show the first truck starting? Would it not?

[@SamuelTheHumanArm]

Yeah but the damn thing costs 70k.....

[@kennethfrese9348]

Did the first one not start? I noticed the one you started had the Z71 package, which the first did not.

[@markhursey6800]

why did you check out the oil pressure gauge on that bad boy 121 pounds and it's not even warmed up yet that may be a problem down the road

[@Antnee7]

Sounds like my old Detroit diesel starting up hahahaha.

[@nos87stang]

I bought the 18 3500 dually yes it was 70,000 dollars but its worth every penny, i love the truck and its a little noisy cold i live in michigan but its the quietest diesel on the market and with 440 hp and 910 ft lbs of torque it pulls my 36 ft 5 th wheel like its a utility trailer . Chevy out performs dodge and ford uphill, downhill and flatland

[@dimitriosmalatches5522]

Here in canada that would be about -25 degrees!! Super cold.

[@Aaron-hi7if]

now thats some oil pressure!!!!!!!!!! 120+ wow!!!!

[@camaro_kyle6851]

sounds like a heavy spec dump truck

[@tscott3497]

CAMARO_KYLE sounds like my bulldozer

[@moosc]

wait they still use a key. no push button? And why don't crew cabs have rear audio controls?

[@josephpantelidis4626]

Chris Sucharda I hope they never add those push buttons to their trucks

[@MsMexicandude]

Chris Sucharda turning the key is the best part about starting a truck. Maybe for a car, it’s not as exciting but when I think of trucks, i think of solid, strong, and tough. Not luxury and simple.

[@alfonsopedroza3538]

Cuz it’s a truck , that stuff I think should stay on SUV’s or fancy cars

[@rubengzmn]

I'm new to this,. The sound this truck is making.. it sounds like it's about to kill the engine

[@T_L_]

Ruben Guzman diesel's don't run as smooth when cold. That's why people with diesel trucks will usually (and should) let them warm up 10-15 mins before driving anywhere if it's real cold outside. I had an old chevy 6.5 diesel that was incredibly loud when cold. Now I have an 01 Cummins that's almost deafening when cold and stick your head under the hood.

[@andrewdhunter15]

That pinging sound is fuel knock. Diesel fuel is more viscous than gasoline and gels when it's really cold. So that sound it cold fuel being shot into a dry piston until the engine warms enough to liquify the fuel. In basic terms

[@twis7edashice106]

Wow it actually started unbelievable

[@pauldriver6084]

Shoulda have ran a extension cord and plugged it in for a few hours. I’d be pissed if a sales man did that to a truck that i WAS about to buy.

[@donc6781]

Nah, heavy duty truck. It’s a big boy it doesn’t need to be plugged in, remember not everyone has that luxury

[@michaelfrancis4291]

Mine failed that test. It cranked and fired, but the fuel was gelled and wouldn't continue running.

[@JamesWindsorUK]

High rpm idle?

[@zenonchlan1976]

that oil pressure

[@maxracingteam23]

Zenon Chlan ouch

[@zenonchlan1976]

NAWLEJisPOWR my dad has a lmm and I've started it at even colder, anyways I've never seen the gauge pegged so it was kinda funny

[@zenonchlan1976]

120 psi man that's a lot lol

[@jaydengerber15]

not bad for-10

[@nathanael423]

My personal experiences with chevys aren’t the great and same with ram and I’ve never had a single issue with a 6.7

[@christopherhohman2894]

That sounded like ball bearings in a dryer that's not good

[@brandon34344]

Christopher Hohman oil is too thick

[@twis7edashice106]

9 below that is hilarious are we are it's minus 30 in the winter

0:55 that truly didn’t sound so good 😬

[@codyslife1162]

Yeah it sounded like shit 😂

[@NordicNevs]

It's angry

[@jimmy4x4socal44]

Diesel aren't good for cold starts, if I lived where it got that cold I'd have a gas truck in case I was out somewhere where I could not plug in I wouldn't worry so much about getting stranded.

[@twis7edashice106]

Lol that truck came from inside the showroom was outside for no more than an hour and it started like that

[@moose5.9]

nice

[@jasongarcia6707]

Damn I rather stick to my f150 I don't like chevys had one never got into it sold it.

[@twis7edashice106]

Agreed had the same experience

[@geraldthomas218]

Couldn't the LML do better?

[@anthonyj810]

Garfield Thomas If it could it wouldn't matter the l5p is still far superior in terms of torque and horsepower.

[@geraldthomas218]

True. It's just that the engineer for the engine spoke about an improved glow plug system, so I expected better.

[@matts9352]

Garfield Thomas I expected better as well, but I have noticed that driving mine every day (plus I already have a little over 1,000 miles) it cold starts better than this truck did.

[@geraldthomas218]

This is encouraging to hear, though it may take a year before I make my purchase.

[@codyslife1162]

Yes it could do wayy better

[@michaelsteffen4887]

You need to plug in the block heater-blockhead

[@AquaSourceLLC]

Terrible start for a brand new truck!! Won't make it three winters!

[@AquaSourceLLC]

Bahahaha said no one ever!!

[@Icutmetal]

jon doe So is your spelling.

[@nickc2708]

I'm a duramax guy and that was such a shitty start I'm embarrassed. My lmm will start better than that in -20 actual temp

that sounded so rough and barely started the Cummins is the way to go

[@ChuckBeefOG]

Mario Bajac Too bad it comes only in a Dodge. You have a great engine wrapped in a turd.
