GM is falling all over themselves trying to sell 6,000 lb Silverados with the silly 2.7 L Turbo. There have allegedly been complaints ref performance especially being underpowered, imagine that. But alas PPL, yer vehicle, yer $$$, buy and run what U will.
ADDED INFO/READERS DELIGHT: Chevy dealer here keeps trying to get me to buy a new truck. Tried to sneak in a Silverado with the 4 banger, nah. Then they trying to get me to get a Sierra with the 5.3. I told em, I need a truck with TT controls, etc, there is only 1 on lot. Also, the GM AFM/DFM is worse than the Mopar MDS, trashing cams and cylinders. SO, it just so happens the one Sierra on the lot is the only one with TT controls, and has disabled AFM due to chips, but they want to upsell me over a high MSRP, low ball me on trade, so I just giggle and say nope, I's good. A different guy to include now the sales manager blows up phone, I just delete message, lmao. I told em exactly how much I would put down and what my monthly payment was to be, as I would like a new ride, not need. They try to sneak it, makes me giggle more, not my first Rodeo.
ADDED: I cannot find a RAM ne where close that has I what I want unless go way too high up in trim and friggin RAM be more than a Sierra.
So yeah, a turbo's 4 banger might be OK in a 3000 lb car, but IMHO, not in a 6,000 lb truck, and this is all IMHO, so haters, stay away, lmao.
