2024 CHEVY SILVERADO HIGH COUNTRY DURAMAX! 39mpg

[@bigdawg901]

Yes that's awesome 22 sierra duramax 26 mpg when I took a trip down to Savannah GA

[@dopeboyp3487]

Wow J, what an unexpected surprise. My wife startled me saying “Babe you’re on TV!” Thanks for the shoutout man! I’m actually in talks with a salesperson @ a local Chevy dealer here in Michigan on an LT Z71 Trail Boss with the Duramax. Only way I won’t get it is if I land a more favorable deal on a GMC Sierra. Either way it’ll have the 3.0. I appreciate the push in the right direction. 💯

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

Boss moves...glad you are working out that deal. Congrats....can't wait to see your new truck soon.

[@dopeboyp3487]

@@2024CorvetteE-Ray Quick question: I’m gathering insurance quotes, and so far it seems insuring a diesel powered vehicle is slightly more expensive than a gasoline powered counterpart. Did you have a similar experience?

[@jwalter75]

Beautiful truck! Can't wait till I can find one in blue with the blue interior.

[@hammer-r]

Similar mileage on mine too. Beautiful truck. Tks for the vids The LZ0 is a great update. Steel pistons, better cooling, simpler cooling valve and higher fuel pressure.

[@jonathonsantamont8527]

Your fuel mileage is amazing…. I thought I saw u had a dud once and swore off the baby Duramax? Glad u gave it a second chance. Great content!

[@sethlover6498]

He didn't have a dud. He had unrealistic expectations.

[@jimmckillip7975]

That is a beautiful truck I have a 2024 chevy silverado LTZ with the 5.3 the best that I have gotten with is 24.8

[@MXWJ01]

Whenever I get back on my feet I’ll be looking into one of those.

[@alexroy6309]

I got nearly 41 mpg on my 21 Denali on a 60 mile straight road with a few curve was shocked coming from a truck.

[@issamyusuf]

I just love it

[@Plumber_Dave]

Hi.What gears in the rear end and does it have the max tow package?

[@maurogarcia6512]

Yes, good question? Also is it 2wd or 4wd?

[@briantcruz3120]

What about DEF? On a full tank How many miles before you have to fill it up again?

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

4 to 5k miles

[@briantcruz3120]

@@2024CorvetteE-Rayawesome thank you for the information and congratulations on that beautiful truck.

2022 LTZ Best so far 36mpg with LM2 11,000 miles on truck

[@francisquenneville6600]

I have a 2024 high country with the 3.0 . U guys say the best BUT what is ur average? I took ours too Florida on AVERAGE I was getting 32-33 mph traveller 75-80 mph per hour. Put 3500 mph on this particular trip. Very impressive

[@briantcruz3120]

So i finally got my 2024 Zr2 LZO and this happened to me at 800miles 💀 but the problem left as soon as it came….. taking it to the dealership Tomorrow morning to run a diagnose.

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

WOW, I can't believe that happened already. WOW...at least it's under warranty, but a REAL hassle to deal with it. It will work out for you sooner than later. Be sure to get a loaner while you wait.

[@MattySOP]

What happened?

[@gkase3979]

When I top off it says 519 range. Thats true if not better if we on the highway. City rollin I'll get around 440

[@andrewsober529]

your diesel truck is getting the same fuel economy as my 2019 Chevrolet Malibu with the 1.5L turbo-4. crazy.

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

WOW, I never thought of it like that...lol, that's wild.

[@juanito5887]

When are you doing an update video? I’m planning on buying one real soon.

[@CountryboyBOB]

Any oil consumption on duramax?

[@kylekiser3567]

I switched to amsoil. Have a 2020. Got 31,000 miles on it never had any oil consumption on it. Change oil at 5000 miles. Like it real well. Take care of it. It will take care of u.

[@CountryboyBOB]

@@kylekiser3567 thanks👍

[@MobilePhone-r9n]

Mr Williams, did you get another truck? This color looks spectacular and your mileage is spectacular. Are you having any problems with your 2.7 truck? Enjoy

[@marcospolicarpo6452]

I currently with 2022 sierra duramax. No regrets. Disel more expensive but: With (citi rewards ) i get 50 cents off gallon.

[@StevenLNew]

305 HP 495 TQ Beautiful Truck... I think you might have sold my on that dark red color!!! I wonder what that truck could do if it was deleted and tuned!?!?!?

[@robbynelson3]

I put hotshot every fill up treatment in my LZ0. I noticed more MPG, quieter and smoother. Seems faster too. 39MPG is pushing it. I think you had a tail wind ;)

[@hammer-r]

No, it’s possible. Just last Saturday my average for a 80 mile round trip, mostly highway, at 60 mph was 41.7 mpg per the computer. Even took a photo cause some won’t believe it. If you’re not aggressive, great mileage can be had.

[@captainredmanz]

Can you speak on the rumors of transmission issues with the 3.0 duramax. Ive heard they have been having some issues, have you experienced any?

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

No

[@maiderchang8768]

This is a beautiful truck and drive great when it is new but 50k miles in the next 3-4 years will start having problems, because I had one and it had problems.

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

That's just YOUR truck. I really don't like when people do this, start saying things like this because you have an issue. Simply not true.

[@BiGoWiNz]

5.8L per 100km is the best I got on a 400 km road going 90 km/hr . 40mph for the muricanz

[@thehawkstv]

That's awesome gas mileage!!

[@gmans4021]

39mpg. what mph were you doing to get that?

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

70 on average the entire trip, and sometimes 80

[@v8chevy788]

@@2024CorvetteE-Ray Hi J, glad to see that you rejoined with the 3.0 Duramax. I was hoping that you would reacquaint with one as I'm still loving my antiquated LM2 2021 Sierra. I was wondering what your average MPG was for that 70 to 80 mph trip as the high MPG value can be a little confusing for viewers. For example, I can get some really good MPG values if I reset my MPG counter and coast down a long downhill grade, but as soon as I start putting my foot into the pedal to maintain speed to climb the next and/or future uphill grades, my MPG starts dropping but my value will continue to show that same MPG value unless I some how beat it with an even better MPG value. Unless your MPG value matches closely with your MPG, the value doesn't really mean much because the MPG value is what closely reflects impact at the pump and in the wallet. When I tell friends about my awesome fuel mileage that I'm getting, I always use the MPG as that's what really counts. When I run 70 to 75 mph on the highway, I can average around 28 to 29 mpg (which is still awesome) and that reflects real closely with how many gallons of fuel were consumed since my last fill up even though I might have seen some really good MPG values during the trip. I absolutely can not achieve an MPG of 39 MPG running 70 to 75 mph with my 3.0 Duramax and would venture to say that no one can. Anyway, I just wanted to clarify this to folks so that it minimizes any confusion. The best way to measure true fuel milage (which is still average) would be to fill your tank as full as possible and record how many miles are on the odometer and at your next fill up, fill the tank completely full again and take the miles driven since your prior fill up and divide them by the number of gallons required to fill the tank. This is your MPG. Some times, my truck's computer is close to what I calculate and some times it's off a little bit in either direction. Thanks for continuing to share the great content and love for the 3.0 Duramax. As long as I continue to have great luck with mine, I can't ever see me running a gasser in a pickup.

[@JG-gb5zl]

2022 refresh 3.0 with 20,000mi!! Wait til your coolant control valve fails…like mine and so many other people out of a vehicle waiting for months for a part that isn’t available!

[@2024CorvetteE-Ray]

It won't, my truck has a special coating on it that protects me from things falling apart like that.

[@hammer-r]

So many people? Odd I’ve never heard of it and the dealer I deal with has also never. I’ve got the 2023 with 18,000 and no issues and great mileage also. 40.2 mpg on flat land and at 60 mph. Best truck I’ve owned so far. But time will tell ultimately.

2024 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4 Owner Here: Let me give all of you real world numbers. My truck is now through 2,000 Miles. Truck had a great break in period. No oil burn. Motor is tight. My MPG Averages. Highway 27 mpg. Overall average mixed driving of highway and around town 24.5 mpg. Those are real world numbers and what you should expect. 39 mpg is clickbait... Sorry Jay that is clickbait. That is not an average. That was for like 25 miles.
