I found it hard to believe that a full-sized, 4x4, V8 pickup gets 22MPH So, based on data from 166 vehicles, 14,968 fuel-ups and 4,453,614 miles of driving, the 2017 GMC Sierra 1500 gets a combined Avg MPG of 16.43 with a 0.05 MPG margin of error.

Extended warranties are a total scam, got one for my Mazda, but when the freeze plug came out at 3000 miles, they said they wouldn’t cover it because the extended warranty didn’t cover the cooling system. Basically, there were so many exemptions, that the extended warranty was useless.

[@manimalworks7424]

Totally agree. My Buick Enclave engine totally broke at 38k miles. Factory warranty and extended warranty all refused to cover

I never got those extended warranty I just think it's a rip-off sorry that this happened to you stay away from those things you're just wasting your money what you could do is that money that you would be paying for the warranty every month put that money and save it. so when your car breaks down you will have couple dollars to fix it.

A friend of mine who lives here in salt belt CT bought a 2016 black GMC Serra crew cab same as this He traded a mint 1994 diesel ford F250 lifted That was a manual shift.

Much smoother less bumpy rocky and quieter ride and solid Has not had not 1 single issue with it since he bought it in 2017. It was a new left over got cheap (cuz it was a last years model!😂 saved $8k off the MSRP) He got it at the right time cuz reg gas prices here at that time got up to $4.75 a gal and diesel was even more.

[@billg7813]

I almost bought a used truck from a national used car dealer but found out before I signed that there was a known issue with some air pump. They offered an extended warranty for extra but I wasn’t sure because my past experience was the warranty did not cover everything they led me to believe they would. They brought in the service manager and he assured me that he could write up the service ticket to assure the warranty would cover any work. I realized I was in the company of crooks and walked out. Never been back.

[@cormaro13]

That doesn't sound like crooks at.... they were trying to help by fixing the truck before u buy which every dealership does before u buy.... then the extended warranty is all about reading can't do anything else besides read and sign lol

[@billg7813]

@@cormaro13 Are you serious or delusional? I've seen videos that mechanics have posted of used cars that customers have bought and bring in for a rattle. Getting the thing up in the air reveals the frame is totally rusted through and that a piece of metal bar has been bolted across the gap and bolted on with bolts from Home Depot. Look up "Dealership Scams" and you see page after page of things dealers have tried, some going back to the 30's and using sawdust in a tranny to smooth it out long enough to get it off the lot. Scammers ARE crooks. The service rep just told me he could word the writeup to validate the warranty. Don't be naive. I use to be young and stupid, then I learned from my mistakes.

[@barryshaw8282]

I had an 1985 Chevy full size van with a warranty. At 70K miles the transmission died. Fixed under warranty. One day out of the shop the alternator quit also covered.

I've had extended warranties with past and current vehicle. Never once had an issue with submitting a claim for repairs.

[@mynameisstilljafo4063]

I got lucky with the one and only extended warranty I ever bought. It was for my 1996 Plymouth Neon. A cooling fan failed and my engine overheated in traffic at around 40K, blowing the head gasket and warping the heads. The EW picked up the entire cost. The lesson, though, wasn't that EW's are a good value. The lesson was not to buy crappy cars. That Neon was nothing but trouble. I traded it in at 63k miles, and never looked back.

[@KaiPonte]

same here. unfortunately, bought a 2016 Chevy Malibu with the Ecotech engine. Head gasket failed at 90,000 miles and five years. Extended warranty paid for the fix at the dealership. Was a $2500 fix, including the two-week rental car. All paid under warranty. Sold that car as soon as possible afterwards.

[@Geforcepat]

My dad's got a 98 Sierra, with over 300,000 miles, original engine, differential, transmission, and I think original suspension too (the thing creaks and groans, but damn does it still run!). It's still doing good despite my dad forgetting to change the oil. My 02 Envoy XL has almost 250,000, original engine, differential, rebuilt transmission, and mostly original suspension (outer tie rods and CV axles). It's odd to me how different GMC and Chevy build their vehicles even though they're EXACTLY the same but rebadged.

[@platinumlawnservice]

Im the same. Had a few 90s Gms. Built solid. Had 2 post 07 chevys. Both junk. One lost a motor, one a transmission(2500hd) before 120k. They also still have the lifter issue 15 years later! 15 years and they refuse to fix it! Now have a Tundra and I love it. Wont be going back.

[@mrc4912]

Yeah, I agree, these things sound like a total scam. The fine print probably reads that if your car breaks down on a day of the week that ends in 'Y', your 'warranty' is null and void. Scotty knows what the hell he's talking about and is a national treasure.

[@steveeddy6876]

Good point Scotty some dealers don't honor Warrantys I worked at Ford Dealership s for many years

[@cjteague89]

I've got a 2017 LTZ silverado that is the literal equivalent to this truck and to this point it has been a very good pickup for me, but it also has about 100k miles less than this one too. I did put a superchips on it to remove MDS and also had the transmission thermostat replaced with the lower temperature OEM one to get the best longevity out of my truck, but we shall see.

[@dval59valletta79]

My dad got the extended warranty for an S10 p/u he bought new. I thought he was nuts cause he never kept his trucks long. He put over 100k on it, and when the motor went, they replaced it. Cost him $100. I was shocked they honored the warranty

It is strange, I had an 87 s15 Jimmy, a friend of mine got the S10 Chevy, same engine, same everything. I dove mine several years longer and many more miles than his Chevy.

[@Simulera]

I bought a new 2004, fairly plain but nice enough LS trim level, Chevy 2500 Silverado duramax 4X4. Still have it. It looks like maybe 3 years old, is perfect. Nothing has been replaced except the in-tank fuel pump when it was nearly new. Just failed, no idea why. That’s it. I’ve got nothing bad to say about that Chevy truck. It pulls, runs great, everything works, nothing is worn out. Truthfully it steers like an aircraft carrier. So I drive it at a stately pace. All good.

[@josezamora7255]

This Sierra owner is top notch when it comes to maintenance. I can only imagine how incredibly he treats his own cars besides the 89 Sierra.

It is my daily driver, I drive 124 miles round trip a day, 5 days a week. My transmission has NEVER been serviced, and it shifts like it should. I have replaced 1 set of plugs, 1 battery, 5 sets of tires, 1 set of rear brakes and 3 sets of front brakes, 1 water pump just last winter. I replace the 1pc belt every year, just because. I have replaced 1 throttle body 2 years ago. Other than that, it is all original. Believe it or not, even all of marker bulbs and turn signal bulbs are original. I have had to replace headlight bulbs twice. With 288k and running smooth as silk, I can and will NEVER complain about my Silverado. It has been the best vehicle I have EVER owned. Dave

[@edwardkaragach6274]

I purchesed Chevy Silverado, before relising my truck dealer wornd me " Do not install plow or your warranty will be eliminated".

[@darrensoldan5972]

Cheaper made as the years went on. My 96 silverado has way bigger exhaust manifold bolts and not one broken! My 01 silverado has the same issue on the 5.3l broken exhaust manifold bolts.

[@GeneralMotorInformation]

My 2007 GMC Yukon has 800,000, original transmission, original everything. The only problem is the seats(the leather has scratches and cracks in it)

[@blackwolf22303]

Nice!

[@jamesguralski5156]

Most of those bolts can be taken out easily. I had a few. Just vise grip most. And weld on a nut!

[@jdwithheld8915]

Save your old nuts with screwed up threads. The heat/expansion from the weld helps crush the corrosion lock up. Smile.

Today, I just tore up and threw away a letter from some Endurance company wanting to give me a "limited time offer" on a car warranty. 🤷‍♀️ Thank you Scotty Kilmer. You saved me a headache. 👍✨️

[@billthepainter5106]

I had a 2014 Silverado with the 5.3 and 6 speed. Bought it with 100k on it. It had 255k when I traded it in. Transmission started to go. Should have changed the fluid more often. He should really look into eliminating the transmission thermostat. Trans will run much cooler! I didn't know about that until after I traded it.

[@briangode1381]

If as I have seen on this I pad complaints about extended auto warranties why are they mucho often advertising on tv it has been said the most often advertised products things are not always the best

[@vaughanhopkins3642]

They covered my transmission , brake booster ,electric louvers in the front grill that open and close for air intake . Better not to have them obviously. Would have cost me thousands to replace

[@DavetheRaveDinkum]

Even if a clutch plate on a manual transmission wears prematurely due to a manufacture fault, it should be covered by warranty.

[@stickybuns8626]

They are almost ALWAYS a scam.

[@anthonyvon4531]

I had an extended warranty through Century I think it was. They took care of two inner tie rods, my infotainment (entire thing was replaced), and my air conditioned seats. (Last Ford I'll own 😂 ) I had a good experience with them but I agree as a whole it's not a great idea.

[@billrehm3590]

I would be standing in front of the dealership with a sign , telling them not to get the extended warranty, they don't honor it.

[@TimTVOfficial]

I would have contacted the DMV regarding the warranty policy if it was rejected since a regulated auto manufacturer or dealer didn't abide to their contractual warranty obligations. Last I checked, everything that's connected to the powertrain is part of the powertrain and it's warranty, it's even in the dictionary what a power train is.

[@jbeck1234]

Why the dmv specifically?

[@TimTVOfficial]

@J Beck They're the regulator in the US and have the ability to suspend their operating licenses.

[@jbeck1234]

@@TimTVOfficial interesting. Good to know for my current situation. Thanks

[@rjtahhan9402]

My 2018 Silverao 57k miles TQ blew out and GM replaced under warranty. 200 miles later TQ went out again. I traded it in I WAS DONE.

[@spottedhorse7]

Im sick of all the commercials on your videos. Like more than anything else. You must be popular :)

[@justinr5425]

Good Ole massachusetts vehicle! I live in western mass and the salt really eats at the metals

[@amuddymoose]

NH too

[@edge_ucation]

So maybe you can answer this. That GMC get 21mpg, but my girlfriend's 2008 GMC Acadia reads at 11mpg. Do you know what the deal is with that?

[@mojo4376]

I gave up on GM when they took the bailout money and became Government Motors…

[@chadbinette3201]

My 2006 2500 still has half the factory coating on it, still has stickers on it yet my 2015 has just as much come off already. Prices go up, quality goes down 🤷.

[@jaykalra-hb3cz]

Scott - is Yukon duramax worth the buy considering all issues

[@amerlin388]

Son is trained (Honda PACT) but doesn't work as a mechanic. He prefers the Chevy/GMC brand used trucks because he says there's an abundance of (junkyard) parts.

[@rangerider51]

I’ve heard that Car Shield is a rip off. They look for loop holes to not pay for something even though you pay those knuckleheads big bucks.

[@xcommonx2199]

I wish I could find a mechanic like in my area....the mechanics here don't seem to kno anything or kno what they r doing....im in a sad situation in New Jersey 😢😢

[@Jonathan-wd2gy]

Did Scotty say that trailer brake controller was to level the load 😹

[@jefferycrenshaw3892]

That tells you everything.

[@ruckes13]

I have always been a chevy person. I have better luck with them. I had a 1999 siverado with 300.00 miles when I had to trade it in on a car to take my mom back and forth to the doctor. It purred like a kitten..

[@CaliCowboy805]

Scottie I thought u said the 2012 Silverado with the 5.3 Engine was the best buy in your opinion?? I'm confused..
