23' CHEVY SILVERADO 1500 TRAIL BOSS 3.0L DURAMAX with the owner of 1 year.

Great truck review! The way you convey your knowledge and information is very natural. Not forced. It’s like you’re just having a non-rehearsed conversation as you share your insights along the way. That’s what I enjoy about your videos. Looking forward to your next review.

[@PresNGo]

Thanks! Glad you keep coming back for more haha.

[@dopeboyp3487]

@@PresNGoThat Sand color is perfect for the black accents. If not for Slate Gray, I’m sure I’d go this route. On another note, here in Michigan those 3.0’s are becoming impossible to source… And for good reason Ha! Great review brother!👊🏽💯

[@jessehoran3083]

Liked the video, and the Avs hat! Haha. I've a Trail Boss w/Duramax, plus an Avalanche decal on the back window, like any respectful Trail Boss owner would. :)

[@PresNGo]

Heck yeah! I might sneak an Avs sticker onto my buddy’s truck we tested haha. Always glad to have fellow Avs fan joining the channel. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@jerrysmith4923]

Very informative. Thank you!

[@PresNGo]

Glad it was helpful!

[@timfast8306]

what dash camera do you have?

[@PresNGo]

I don’t believe the owner has a dash cam, all the footage through the windshield was done with an iPhone 15pro max.

[@parkertalbott522]

OH YEAH!

[@PresNGo]

Thanks for watching friend!

[@alinmoraru5061]

How is the new ten speed automatic gearbox? Is it reliable? Because I heard on KZbin that is problematic!? Some owners complaign about it? Like it would be the worse of them all!? Thank you kindly, beautiful video!

[@PresNGo]

I don’t have a lot of insight on issues that others have reported but of those I know who own a Silverado or Sierra with the new 10 speed they have all been very happy with them.

[@kennethshoemaker2941]

What's the highway MPG

[@PresNGo]

My friend says he gets 25-27mpg on the highway. Obviously here in CO that varies based on where you are driving with the mountains but he said that’s what he typically gets on the highway.

[@kevinswanson3910]

Been a good truck like to have it for the next 20 years like my last truck with the 5.3

[@PresNGo]

5.3 is a motor that has stood the test of time for Chevy.

The 01 5.3 first gen was the best 5.3 277hp kind of ironic that the first gen 3.0 diesel is 277hp and ne t gen was 305hp

[@philbarrows424]

Nice truck except for the Lady motor I drove all 3 engine versions except the diesel (NJ makes you run DIF in all new disels), and decided on the 5.3 V8

[@SS-zl3go]

I'm impressed with the way GM developed this motor and how quiet and smooth it is. You said " like every other diesel today...quiet" I disagree. Stand next to a Ford or Stelantis (Cummins) and you'll need ear plugs for the knock and a respirator for the smoke and stink. Not true on the Duramax.

[@PresNGo]

True this is one of the quietest diesel motors. I hope this motor continues to get put into more GM products bc it is such a great little workhorse.

[@karlschauff7989]

It's basically the same diesel engine BMW uses (M57/N57 diesel) in some of their vehicles. Much better emissions system design than most other American vehicles.

[@James-t3c]

It’s not electric. No motors. It’s a diesel engine.

[@saltcar]

@@James-t3c What?

[@James-t3c]

@@saltcar people need to stop calling engines, motors. Motors are electric. Engines are combustion, fed by fuel. Massive difference. Especially now that plenty of vehicles that are electric with motors.

Hahah that’s a good one. I haven’t heard that one before.

[@joshtaylor1416]

I wish it was matte black instead of gloss lol.

[@PresNGo]

100% agree, gloss black is too hard to keep looking clean. This truck would look 🔥 with matte black in place of all the gloss black.

[@TacoTruck17]

I get 19 miles a gal. In my 5.3 gas truck. Why would I go diesel? The 5.3 has 355 horse power, Why would I go 305 horse power with the diesel?

[@PresNGo]

I agree, if your use case is towing I would recommend the diesel over the 5.3 for the higher torque and at much lower rpm. The turbo is also a big deal where I am at altitude. 5.3 is a great motor though if it meets your needs.

[@joshtaylor1416]

@@PresNGoI’d still tow with my 5.3 than that small 3.0. If you wanna tow get a 6.6.

[@karlschauff7989]

This engine makes 120 lbft more torque than your engine. Not even the 6.2 can match it in torque. A non-Trail Boss truck with the Duramax easily gets 27-30 mpg highway.

[@karlschauff7989]

@@joshtaylor1416 The 3.0 Dmax is a better towing engine than the 5.3. The 5.3 just doesn't have the torque so you need the 10-speed and NHT max tow package, but that means giving up the Z71 option.

[@joshtaylor1416]

@@karlschauff7989 that 3.0 is useless.

[@karlschauff7989]

Duratracs are just extremely noisy tires, especially if you don't rotate them every 5k miles.

[@PresNGo]

Never had Duratracs on one of my own vehicles before. My favorite tires I’ve put on my own truck so far are the Falken Wildpeak AT3s. Great tire!
