I Bought A $6,000 GMC Sierra And It Broke Down Immediately

I bought a 2013 sierra and 2015 sierra 2500hd for 10,500 combined. What a steal! Unfortunately it broke down right away.

I’m glad you were spared the worst of the flooding. My best wishes for everyone affected in VT and everyone else in the northeast impacted.

[@bestrigs96]

6.0L chevys always pull well, and are very powerful, you just have to be willing to get it out of them, cold air intake and a tune made mine a beast.

[@RohanSanjith]

Diesel or petrol?

[@bestrigs96]

@@RohanSanjith wym, chevys 6.0 is a gas only, they've only made diesel 6.6l engine, other than the 3.0 they put in small trucks for mpg economy

[@anthonymcandrew529]

Thanks for another excellent video! Looks like you got good deals on both trucks. VT flood footage looks really bad so glad you were only minimally affected.

[@organiccold]

Nice trucks, and good job with sorting that in the warranty. Glad you didn't get affected by the floods, and hope everyone that was affected is ok.❤

[@stevenrogers2457]

Hey man, living down here in Mass I've been to Vermont many times, been watching the floods on the news every day and praying for you all. Nice purchase on the trucks!

[@TheRwd2]

My family has owned a house in Plymouth for over 30 years and have been visiting Ludlow for all of that time. Prayers for the town as they were just recovering from a long depression and are now faced with this financial calamity.

[@deepwoodguy2]

I have been watching videos of the flooding ...I use to work on State Street in Montpelier...all flooded, Winooski River right up to the bridge... 2 months worth of rain in just a few hours...thanks for posting the info...👍👍

[@BikerJim74]

I have family in Vermont and I've been updated about the flooding. I wish you guys luck

[@NativeMainer53]

Glad you and your family are safe. The flooding in VT is astonishing, hope people are safe. I hate to say it, but AAMCO probably tried to deny coverage because you are young, thought they could take advantage of you. No matter what you do in life you will be successful, you have a tremendous work ethic that will take you to success.

[@ThriftyGarage]

Our 2015 is our favorite work truck. Best bang for the buck! We did a video comparing the cost of ownership on several of our work trucks and our 2015 won by a landslide. We purchased one for about $10k under KBB but you picked up that truck for next to nothing!

[@alexisballin332]

Stay safe out there, Rural Vermonter! Been seeing lots of news reports on the flooding. Unbelievable how much rain you guys are getting. Best wishes from Cincinnati!

[@RohanSanjith]

Any rain in Toledo?

[@lincmerc1581]

East Mississippi/west Alabama received 10-12 inches earlier today. I'm in n.e. central Alabama and luckily only received a trace of rain today. The weather is crazy lately. Congratulations on the truck and stay safe.

[@Shyguy624]

Wow so sad to hear about the floods I'm in british coloumbia and we got floods in 2021 and that was devastating to see as a lot of farmland was ruined and major highways were swept away that are still being rebuilt. Hope to see vermont recover in the time to come

[@dangoodall-williams4200]

Holy water! I'm glad you are safe, but wow, alot of damage there. I had heard it was bad but wow. Stay dry and safe!

Send some rain this way. We are so dry here in Minnesota. Love the videos and what you do. Keep it coming

[@richardthomas1743]

Yes lots of Vermont has had devastating flooding . I live just North of St Johnsbury , all we received locally is minor road flooding. Wishing anybody that had been affected by the rains and floods the very best in Vermont and surrounding states.

[@RohanSanjith]

Still not as bad as fort Myers floodings

[@john_toss]

Seeing this rust makes me glad that my state (Idaho) doesn’t use road salt. You still see a lot of older cars/trucks like Blue.

[@tommyboy8524]

I’m glad you and your family made it through. Good luck on your new rig. Now keep this one 😂. Until the next one.

[@joehinvt]

We got lucky down here inRutland....some streets flooded ... mainly just and inconvenience.....But over the mountain got hit bad... Glad you made it safe!

[@thinkabout602]

Glad you're safe. Been thinking about you for a number of days now. Sweet deals on those trucks. Stay safe. From Ft. Myers and still have sunk boats in our river from strong cat 4+ about a year ago. ⚡🌩🌧⚡ get ready for more 👎

Literally The Day After You Uploaded This Video We Received 10+ Inches Of Rain In Southern Arkansas. But It Was Localized To A Few Counties Unlike Vermont Was Statewide Great Video Keep Up The Content Coming

[@tractormatt4301]

That flooding was crazy. I can’t imagine what the flooding is like back in ct where I’m from. Currently I’m in cape cod on vacation, last year we were in a drought, now it’s flash flooding.

[@ceetwyce335]

So glad to see this video. I was worried about you. Glad you're ok.

[@XC0688]

I can remember years ago when i was working outside of WRJ at the VA the flooding was awful. I bought a Vermont strong plate to help raise funds.

[@pistnbroke74]

Hey man I am from Maine not to far away from Vermont i have lived here my whole 21 years and we got nothing compared to what you guys got down there I hope everything works out well in the end

[@cardinaloflannagancr8929]

Thats awesome news glad they finally came through in the end. It's amazing what companies will try to squeeze out of warranty work. Friend had a 2500 chevy once which had multiple times a wire harness replaced under warranty, known issue on them apparently. The last time it was in they noticed he put a cold air intake on. They refused replacing the harness even though it had failed twice before with no intake change. Then to be even nicer they red flagged it and called up GM to ensure the warranty was voided in total. No clue why they didnt just have him swap the intake out. Oddly enough he continued driving GM for years after, last new one though.

[@SammyKurts-ku2ht]

Blinking check engine light means it’s a catastrophic misfire that could damage your catalytic converter

[@OwenC1]

Those floods sure did a number on VT and NH. A train trestle near me got unseated and shifted a few days after the worst of the floods.

[@manbearpig2164]

Do you ever use a fluid film or Surface Shield, it works great for keeping the rust away, I'm surprised that most people don't use it, it saves vehicles

[@cigarsgunsandgasoline8032]

People are too cheap or lazy to get it done! I usually run cars till they start to rot then get something new...

[@robj2704]

I don't live in the North so I don't use fluid film on my vehicles but I do use it after the mowing season when I clean out my riding mower deck. I use it liberally on the underside after wire brushing. My mover is 17 years old and the deck is still good.

[@samking3920]

I live in mass and travel regularly to the north county and I fluid film my vehicles every fall, and it definitely keeps the corrosion to a bare minimum

[@tomstarcevich1147]

It awesome stuff I used pb blaster surface shield on my new ram no rust for me 😊🛻👍

Really sorry to see all the flooding, hopefully everyone's insurance is up to snuff. That knock sounds "tinny", a rod knock is more of a solid sound.

A quick comment, just after I heard the "solid" rod knock sound the "kiss your engine goodbye" light came on.

[@STREETRACEN4U]

Good deal on that truck. i currently have an 08 2500 gmc 6.0 with 340k miles and i love it but eventually even though GM is junk i still want a 2015+ style 2500hd crew cab. I dont do payments so i'm just waiting until i can just buy one out right but its good to see this one sold for that great price.

[@scotfenedick6618]

[@socal_c10]

The 6.0’s can actually be pretty powerful units if you tune and remove torque management from the ECU. My dads got a 06 1500HD with the LQ4 and he tuned the computer and that truck will spin 33’s in 3rd gear. Also will tow my 83 C/10 like it’s not even back there

You should put a nice set of wheels onto it, remove the back rack and replace it with a roll up cover and get the rust repaired and it would be a nice daily.

What were you doing with that obs manual transmission truck on the trailer

[@robertmailhos8159]

Not a bad thing to get 2 trucks for the price of $5250 a piece when you devide them by 2

[@leonb2637]

Good to see you are ok, but many in VT are getting hit hard by those '1000 year' floods. I live in Northern NJ and familiar with the destruction from big floods. About 40 miles north of me in the Hudson Valley of NY saw some of the worst flooding they have had in decades. As to the trucks, that is not rust, that is Vermont Patina. 😁 Another set of good purchases for the money and your needs. Good due to your persistence you got the transmission fixed. What is the status of the tractor trailer ?
