Saying goodbye

Goodbye to all users on here you was all a great help when I had trouble or a question But I recently traded my 2017 f250 lariat 6.2 in on a 2019 Silverado 1500 high country 5.3 thank you all for help in the past and good luck to everyone.

I find myself looking at them when we drop our 3500 HD off for service. But then I snap out of it. Just kidding... your new truck looks great. Hope you get great service from it.

5.3 is a proven motor but a lot less capable then the 6.2 in the towing dept.

Enjoy.

I Bought the 5.3 knowing that I wouldn’t be towing anymore right now I’m averaging 22mpg I don’t think the 6.2 is capable of that!!!

Sounds like a great deal, jackjude. I mean, you get stuck driving a Chevy now, but the price was right! Lol. It looks like a nice rig and I imagine drives nicer than a Super Duty.

6.2 does not get that kind of mileage.

I think chevy also does some kind of deactivation of certain cylinders to save some fuel?

It does and automatic stop and start helps a ton with fuel also but feels weird shutting down at a red light
