Re: 2016 K2500HD work truck

The 6.0 moves the truck quite well for the weight and as said before has been exceptionally reliable.
Just empty of course, but the highway coming home has a few hills. The new truck just rolls right up on cruise control without any apparent notice. But our little car has to shift down and scream on almost any hill to hold speed, so I only use cruise where it's dead flat, and just let it slow down a little.

The grill and fenders are crazy tall. You can barely see into the engine compartment. It's about the height of my old 1965 GMC 2 ton! But amazingly there is quite a bit of room around the engine. Of course you would need a 6' stepladder to get up in there

I'm not sure if I will like the gas consumption. I guess I have to get used to that again.
