  • Nice truck. Good luck with it. I got my 2011 Chevy 2500hd, Duramax, 4x4, Crew Cab LTZ, steel green a few months back and I absolutely love it. You get a whole new appreciation for the LML when you're merging onto the highway with an 8,000lb trailer, you go to check your mirror, and then glance back at your speedometer and you're unknowingly going 85 MPH.

  • TAKE THAT TO MEXICO AND YOU WONT EVEN LAST A DAY WITH IT

  • can you send me a message on what you paid for this because I'm fixing to buy one.

  • @BallzDeepClan1 I posted it somewhere earlier down here.... the sticker was $63K, (Dealer), and $61K factory. and I paid $59K ... this was in Oct 2010 and they were brand new... today they're not quite as fresh news and so it might be softer.. this was a loaded LTZ ...

  • @CE750 Nice truck I just bought my 2011 in the Z71 LT package but only paid $43k. Vehicles must be higher in your area.

  • @peanuttization that's likely part of it, and the LT is a lot less to begin with... LTZ package and rear DVD/NAV and a few other items adds up fast.. Z71 is a $300 option I think, and I only opted for the protection plates part of that as I don't go off road.

  • @CE750 Beautiul truck man, congrats, does it really get 22mpg?

  • @TheOfficerBell I get 17-21 mpg average now.... I've seen 22 on straight and level roads over a distance using the onboard computer however while traveling at 65.

  • That's a nice ass truck dude..

  • @INGKaYo

    I think he knows that since he bought the dam thing.

  • I gotta tell u that u were more knowledgeable about the truck than most sales ppl that don't know nothing about what they are selling, Nice truck btw

  • @Nekrophiliac333 thanks, yeah, it was sad... I went to all 3 manufacturers dealers and ended up schooling all 3 salesmen on the difference and similarity between them all.... worse one was frankly the Chevy guy who was nothing but a go between for the sales manager... I was already sold on the truck before I walked back on the lot.. anyway...thanks

  • I do like how well organized the engine bays of these duramaxs are compared to how jammed in everything looks in the super duty with the 6.7.

  • thumbs up for this video. love to get one of those trucks

  • Chevy's nice. I just perfer the l00ks of the Sierra 2500HD SLT.

  • @NissanTitanFreak what's a 100ks?

  • @CE750 Lol its leet for looks

  • Do you like it to be quiet or are you going to put some aftermarket exhaust?

  • @auburnboy141 No, I'm going to keep it bone stock.... I see no advantage to making it louder or smokier... that just adds to the hate some people have for diesel trucks... the idea for me is to encourage more people to get these, not discourage it by making them into something that turns off a lot of people.

  • Nice truck man! I've been meaning to trade in my 2004 GMC 2500hd for awhile now but just haven't got around to it. The interior quality is so much nicer on these newer trucks.

  • Beautiful truck, would love to have fatter tires on it though, the stock tires GM puts on seem akwardly small.

  • @TriggerHappyLunatics yeah, I know some like the big tire look, I honestly prefer the stock look.... if it were a 4 wheeling truck, maybe, but it's a road vehicle..

  • @CE750 Well the tires I have on my Silverado are road tires, but they are wider and and have high sidewalls, I believe they are Wrangler RT/S P265/75r16.

  • get a smoke switch and chrome stacks in bed!lol jk man nice truck man just priced mine out and it was a 2011 same as your just ext. cab for $54.5k

  • actually the towing is 24,000 lbs

  • @pensyturbine is that for the 2500 SRW? or 3500DRW? or both? Thanks for the correction

  • @CE750 both the towing is the same the payload isnt i own a GMC denahli HD and at the dealer they said that and i found out the towing pretty impressive for a 12 yr old huh?

  • @CE750 2500&3500

  • the best truck on the road

  • Now, that's what I'm talking about. You got yourself a truck there.

  • awesome truck man. The new box frame is something to brag about. That new 6.6 duramax has balls too. I like how quiet it is when it's running.

  • Now thats a truck!!!!!

  • nice truck! what the gas milage like?

  • @theDscotty 12-18 mpg depending on whether it's city or highway.. worse I've seen is about 10mpg in stop and go type city.. and best is 19mpg with cruise control at 60mph on a level road.

  • @CE750 Try setting you'r cruise at 55, you will get about 22 with it. Just FYI

  • Nice truck how much did you pay for it?

  • @freegamingsolutions $63000 sticker, I got it for $59K... that was late 2010..

  • great truck, great vid. thanks for sharing.

  • Wow this is the truck I dream to own one day. Just amazing!

  • that'll teach a cummins whose boss

  • I drove one at the local dealership. felt A LOT slower than my LB7. didnt like it at all

  • @THEuncleshank it's also A LOT heavier ..

  • @THEuncleshank its a truck its not supposed to be fast its supposed to tow

  • the only thing i can say, is im fucking jealous

    i got an 01 chev 1/2 ton z71 but you just cant compare it

  • I am 13 and I got 5yrs to save for a good down payment on one of these but the one of the year when I buy mine:)

  • when you opend the hood it was like opening the heavens

  • whats the mpg with that truck in the city and how much is it to fill up

  • @mwd92 I see 18-19 on the highway driving at about 65-70.. I have only towed with it once, about 6000lbs.. and that was showing 15mpg highway... For in town driving, I'm averaging about 13mpg.. Not at all bad for the size and power output.. plus, I am running B20 which is going to hit the milage a bit.

  • @alphiejh LOL...I know eh? They clam ALL the power, but they fall in the towing?? hmm....I thought you bought a diesel to tow LOL

  • Bad ass truck man!

  • Great looking truck. I am looking forward to owning one in the near future.

  • that is such a nice truck personally though i would get it in white one but still.... love it

  • Sorry, your wrong, one thing it can't do is pull a cummins!

  • @ryanbart212 lol...ok, sure thing pal.

  • @ryanbart212 stock vs stock, both automatics, the duramax will rip the shit out of the cummins.

  • @ryanbart212 dmax has more power so... it can pull a cummins

  • @ryanbart212 dude, cummins cant even pull itself haha

  • Truck of the year right there!

  • Lift it! 8inch on 37's then it'll be perfect!

  • beautiful truck... Chevy all the way

  • the only thing that i'll do to that truck is swap out the exhaust tip for a chrome one, then the truck would be complete

  • NIce truck.

  • Love the video that's the exsact same truck I'm lookin for can't wait to test drive and hopefully purchase one! 2011 2500hd Alison transmission duramax diesel 4x4 the only way to go!! Love it man! Thanks for the video alota usefully info

  • How do you like it so far? I'm going to be looking at getting an 07-08 LMM hopefully within the year.

  • @Collecian no regrets at all... absolutely love it. The 2007-10's are a bit lighter, but still a whole lot more truck that I need... And you don't have to worry about the Urea fluid issue.

  • LUCKY

  • What's the name of the song on the radio?

  • @jtm3152 something from BBC World Service, which is what I listen to a lot on XM.

  • Great truck man. The 2011 really makes me wish I had waited another 2 years before getting a new Duramax. Mine's a 2009 GMC. I like the 2011's mainly for the new chassis and suspension, especially the front suspension. It's a lot sturdier and more durable than the previous years. I'm not a fan of the new emissions though. How often do you have to refill the urea tank?

  • @BBTthetank Well, I keep a spare gallon in the truck just incase I run out (though you get multiple layers of warnings)... but it's a 5 gallon tank, and I'm at 1600 miles now and it's hard to tell, but I think it's about 2/3's full... at about $7/gallon it's about $35 every oil change more cost... but it's amazing to see absolutely no smoke (even at full throttle) and have lower NOs emissions than many gassers.. As for waiting... it's like computers man, you can just keep waiting... I never do!

  • @CE750 Yah, i thought I was supposed to get multiple warnings... Got one at 277 miles, what bull shit it that?

  • @YoungDuramax gotta take it into the dealer and demand they get it working right... there are a few of these having issues with cold weather start/run... it's probably a case of a faulty sensor, or heater in the DEF system.

  • Also can you make a video of it towing

  • @TCB1468 it's going to be well into next year before I tow anything, if I remember to, I will.. thanks.

  • Any idea of which is better.

  • @TCB1468 Well, I looked at the Ford, Dodge and Chevy/GMC .. they all cost about the same, and I bought the GM/Chevy... so what does that say? ;-)

  • Nice truck. I'm trying to decide between this and the ram 2500. Kn

  • Nice truck, personally i prefer a manual transmission, but as far as i know, that isn´t awable on the Silverados. I do have a Isuzu-engine myself, then rather in the other end of the scale. it´s a puny 1.7 Diesel wint a 124 Foot-Pounds of torque. But thats what you get if you can´t spend to much on a car. I´m really dreaming of buying a Toyota HiLux myelf. In Norway we do have an real rare edition of it, whom i´d like to buy.

  • @Torvikholm Yes, for a while these had the option for a ZF6 transmission, but GM decided the Allison was more heavy duty (it's basically a version of the commercial Allison 1000), so that's all we can get with the diesel engine option. Toyota makes a good and reliable truck, the problem is they don't make a true heavy duty truck for personal use... they're talking about a diesel powered "HD" truck, but I've not seen anything here other than Tundra.

  • what is that shit hangin off the truck at 0:37 it looks like it might catch anything on a trail

  • @wacey2002 that would be the 5 gallon Urea tank.. it hangs down about the same as the frame so its not a "low point" .. that angle makes it look a lot lower... there's about 12" clearance from the tank to the ground.

  • Rotella is the best oil to use for diesels.

  • @762jackdaripper no amsoil is the best but you need to put 10k miles on truck before using or it will never reak in lol

  • @bloodlett1 which oil is the best is very subjective.. most of the brand name synthetics are good... Mobil 1 Delvac, Amsoil and Scaheffer are three that I like... I went with Schatfer for the additive package. Also, there is no long break in on these newer duramax engines... 1000 miles is plenty.. newer engines are very high tolerance and don't need that 10k break in anymore.

  • super awesome truck! even though SD has more power on paper, Duramax beats it in the real world tests hands down! This is my next TRUCK!

  • What brand of motor oil do you use? Iv had good luck with Valvoline Premium Blue.

  • @ABWarMachine I am using Schaffer 9000 (fully synthetic) commercial duty diesel oil.. but I also like the Mobil 1 Synthetic Delvac.. the Schaffer seems to have a very good reputation among fleet and commercial users.

  • You getting cab lights or running boards for that truck?

  • @ABWarMachine I'm interested in the cab lights if you know a good source for them, let me know... but the running boards aren't my cut of tea... just don't like how they look on a truck.. (to each their own i guess.)

  • @CE750 I shopped around before getting them frm the dealer, but the dealer price & install was to good to pass up. JC Whitney sells them. The cab lights I have are frm Pacer brand. Recon also makes them.

  • wow this dude mustve studied the specs off the website before posting this video

  • @Dio109 not well enough if you look at the number of corrections I had to make!

  • the mud flaps do not find that truck. has your truck ever gone into limp mode because of no DEF?

  • @HOMI3INK not sure what you mean about the mudflaps... I had them installed at the dealer if that's what you're asking... as for limp mode... no, I have only had the truck a month and a half, with 1200 miles.. so until I go closer to 5000, I won't get to where the DEF is low enough.. but since it's cheap, I just keep topping it off when ever I pop the hood and that way, no worries!

  • @CE750

    They dont fit the look of the truck. I have an LMM it gets 20-21 mpg @70 & 23 @ 62mph (not hauling/towing) in town 16-17. what does ur LML get?

  • @HOMI3INK mud guards are like that...some love em, some hate em... I fall into the former. As for milage, it's 13-14 in town, and 22-23 highway @ 65, no load from the few times I checked it.... I'd like to do a longer range run, but this is from Portland to Salem, about 30 miles.

  • nice truck bud!!great pick.thinkin on trading my ford f-350 in on a silver one

    with the diesel.well see what they will give me for my ford.great purchase!!!

  • @1smokingunz good luck... so often they don't give you anything fair for a trade.. but if they don't, at least demand a great price on the buy.. I got 3K off sticker.. and soon, they'll be clearing 2011's and it's gonna be closer to 5K+

  • Ford f-250 looks so much better. Gm has gone down hill since they had to borrow money. The f-250 has a way better interior as well.

  • @jeepguinness that is the wonderful thing about living in the USA... we can have a choice between which we like best and vote with our wallet.. clearly I don't agree or Ford would have gotten my $62K but again, that's what's nice about freedom.. plus we get competition which makes for better trucks.

  • @jeepguinness Hell no

  • I really love the current generation Silverados and Sierras, but those wheels are pretty bad... They have a windmill design that I don't particularly like, but other than that, beautiful truck.

  • Black looks good. Nice truck.

  • @PissOnJapScrap thanks... and I LOVE the accent! ;-)

  • I'm a Tundra man, but that's a pretty nice truck

  • @mgallegos55 if they made a diesel in the US, I'd have given it a look.. I just had to have a diesel.

  • nice truck I WANT ONE

  • Dude, put the interior of the ford super duty in this truck and i'm a happy camper.

    Better yet give me a truck with a ford frame, cummins diesel, and a allison tranny, then we're talking!!

  • Man shes beutiful.

  • Good job on the walkaround dude!! Love that truck!! :D

  • aftermarket garbage, thats the best stuff about diesel!

  • @BoeingXtremes For some I suppose.. to each their own.

  • awesome truck i have been trying to find a 2011 duramax vid forever

  • wow, awesome truck. i think that every option you can get. didnt even know about the trans cover. i hope you have the marker roof lamps, i didnt see them in the vid. congrats on the truck

  • @arfbarg Thanks, I got just about all the major factory options I wanted... there were a few major things I didn't get... like Z-71 (although I had the dealer put on the one part I really wanted, the skid plates) since I don't really plan to do a lot of off roading . The covers were done at the dealer, not the factory, but you can easily order them from a lot of authorized resellers for Mag-Hytec.

  • @arfbarg oh, and no marker roof lamps.. not a huge fan of their appearance on single rear wheel trucks... had I gotten the dully and had a lot of towing planned, I'd probably have opted for those however.

  • @CE750 i'm fixing to order one of these soon. i think the roof lamps look cool at night for that big rig look. needless to say you have one awesome truck! congrats and happy towing

  • Very cool

  • Were the mag hytech covers a factor option? Thanks

  • @buckrog73 They were a dealer option when I bought it .... and also approved by GM/Allison.
