When did they start putting them in regular 1500s? 2009 I think, also what is the gas mileage stock on them?

When did they start putting them in regular 1500s? 2009 I think, also what is the gas mileage stock on them?
I get about 14-16 Mpg
Heavy or light footed?
14 heavy 16 on highway cruise it's a 09 Sierra Denali
Awd probally eats it a little bit
Mines a 2wd honestly a 4.8I had got better gas mileage lol
I thought all 1500 denali was awd
It really depends on the trans and rear. My truck has 3.42s and the 6l80 and I get around 18.5 hwy and 8 city... but I'm cammed and stalled. Before the cam and stall I was getting 13 city and 20 hwy. The tune is the most important thing.
Can we get the 6.2 in a rcsb?
I don't think so
We already did one and it has factory warranty... did ls3 from gm and 4l85e from gm all new and he was sble to turn all his serial numbers in and keep his warranty!
The day GM offers a 6.2/6l80e in a RCSB is the day I buy a new truck.
Smallest truck you can get the 6.2/6L80e in now is a ESCB 2wd 1500.
Supposedly if you go through fleet sales you can get a 6.2/6L80e in a RCSB. I have tried everything else to get a 6.2 in a RCSB, but another option is paying the dealership to swap the motor.
If you do like that old man did frenchy you can own one!!! All his factory warranty carried over once we swapped!!!
Like i said we just did on... come to use or check out our facebook page there plenty of pics in there of the ls3 with dod now :-( and 4l85eQuote:

lol o btw i thought i would mention i ment regular 1500's as in non-denali not rcsb, i am looking for ccsb.
As long as you are getting a crew cab, 2009 and later is what you want. If you are getting an ECSB, get a 2010 or later. This is simply so you will have the 6l80e trans.
I can get 17 if I drive lightly but average 12-14 driving 75-80 everywhere in my 6.2, but I am 4x4. Side note, first time towing with my 6.2 and was amazed. I towed my red truck to SAR and was really surprised in the power and that is with 3.42s. Keep in mind, I am coming from a Dmax and was still impressed from diesel to gas.
Mine is 4x4 as well. You do have bigger tires than me though.
Whats with this truck?Quote:

Nope. Can't do it. Not in a RCSB. Supposedly you can order fleet vehicles that way, but no one has done it that I know of, so I call BS.Quote:
