300k sometimes more. Company would trade them in around that time. At that point tho we would always have a new transmission. So if your worries about something that would be something to worry about. It's not a conspiracy. Working for GM we didn't see that many failures either. But a whole...
I posted the links. The engines are 100 pounds different. Im basing it on what we know not what something may look like. Engine vs engine, gas 720lbs vs diesel 835lbs.
Yeah no doubt gm is still responsible. It their warranty and name.
Just trying to be objective here.
Could it be the extra plumbing for the turbo? Or perhaps the thicker/denser material composition of the block ? Or the heavier denser components for the engine due to higher compression ratios? The 6.6 gas engine is 100lbs lighter than the 6.6 duramax. So what's the couple hundred pounds you...
Tell me what magic makes the lm2 anymore complicated then a dohc gas engine ? Diesels have higher compression. Different ignition source. And as you guys like to state, a 'complicated' emmissions system. Not much more to it.
GM didn't mess up the 6.2 suppliers did. The design is reliable and...
I think it was packaged that way because it was in short supply so they want you to pay for it. Id imagine as availability increases you can package it without . maybe even on lesser trims.
From all accounts the new interior should be like the Silverado EV. I wouldn't be surprised if the 'refresh' isn't just full redesign and won't be seen until the end of this product cycle. GM has never done a major mid cycle refresh on the full size suvs. I don't see why this model will be any...
You may disagree but the reality is a diesel trades some gas specific components for some diesel specific components. Those diesel parts are simpler and more robust. Emissions components seem like a boogey man but are largely over hyped when the systems are pretty simple.
And in terms of this...
No worries. You seem to be in the minority with issues in regard to your lm2. I do remember some of you posts. Id imagine there was some misdiagnosing involved. Engine cost is irrelevant if one blows up consistently and another doesn't.
6.2 v8s are grenading in some lifter failures. So outside that warranty that has huge negative side. Im not just talking lm2. Diesels in general are no more expensive then gassers. Spark plugs and coils are also another failure point on gassers. Scr? Child's play...
The same is true of gas engines. You had a problem. Turbos are not a diesel only trait, and a very low failure point in the lm2. What about lifters in the v8s? That is a costly repair outside of warranty. What about catalytic converters (some diesels dont have them and those that do don't fail...
Cp4 isn't uses in lm2. Uses denso hp4. Im gonna say many don't understand diesel. It's not some alien tech. It's just as simple as gasser. Parts are a little more expensive. But nothing catastrophic about diesel failures. No need for false scare tactics. For the record the lm2 also has a longer...
Eh I don't know about that. Gm is still dominating the field. https://fordauthority.com/2023/04/ford-expedition-sales-numbers-figures-results-first-quarter-q1-2023/
Its not common but not unheard of. Early failures of components are way more prominent then mid life. Use the warranty and dont worry about it.
Basic shocks fail from new all the time. It just happens.
Why is there a lawyer involved for a back ordered part? Im surprised they are talking to you at all. With that said I mean the warranty and payment reimbursement is nice. Seems way above and beyond from the dealer.
Probably. He took all that easy boomer money. Which easy come easy go I suppose. Seems some are more predisposed to those types of financial scams.
Greater fool theory scams are rampant on social media. Usually targeting older folks.
Personally i think mismanagement leads to bankruptcy and bailout. Cant blame labor for that.
If you are making a profit you need to compensate those responsible adequately. Now if we are at a negative year over year adjust accordingly.
Sucks it takes a threat of a strike to get to negotiations.
there are some rv places that will do 30 years. You see those 200k+ sprinters ? #vanlife? Yeah those kids are financing for 15 to 30 years. With that said it all really is a means to the same end. For some a simple interest loan with a longer term could just be to hedge their bets, while...
You can't exaggerate things you pay tax on because that would be stupid and counter productive. 10% gains year over year is really nothing crazy. High yield savings can almost get you there alone and that's dumb money. And the stock market isn't the only thing to invest in.
A diversified...
Its not all just in the stock market. I average 10 to 12% during the norms.
The irrationality of the market during the pandemic and during the stimulus made me way more.
real estate has always been the name of the game. Even during the downturns its one of the safest bets out there.
