Default New Truck.

Just flipped my lid. Been driving the same truck for almost 30 years. I love my old dogged out ford but switched sides. GMC Elevation with the turbo 4 banger. So far I love it. Getting use to the modern bells and whistles may take some time. I had a decent down and got 0% so wtf! May keep my old truck dunno.

Nice truck.
It's hard to dispose of an old and trusted vehicle. I'm in the same boat.

Congrates!

You will have to tell us how you like the 2.7 CSS engine, Power and MPG. I have spent quite a bit of time in the spring hill engine assembly plant were they are built, but I have only had a few rides in the truck equipped with them. And they were both preproduction trucks. So no actual owner opinions.

I am just over 1000 miles mostly freeway using cruise. MPG so far is 22.1 average 22.7 was the best. It drives like a luxury car and I have had a few oh **** moments when I looked down at the speedo! I haven't really got on it yet but it will go!
