Really been needing a truck for a while now

2014 Silverado High Country with 6.2L. Has flow master dual exhaust. Some sort of tune was definitely loaded on it, because AFM has never kicked in. Going to take it to a friend’s shop and have them load their base tune onto it, because I don’t trust whatever is on there now. No power add on the tune they’ll do, but it disables AFM and does some other shit to make it drive a little better.

How’s the 6.2 pull from a roll? I drove one and the 8sp always felt confused of which gear to pick and took too long to down shift. Made it feel not that much more powerful than the 5.3. I ended up saving the cash and getting a 5.3, but also have the 8sp and its equally confused behind the 5.3 :picard:

This one has a 6-speed. So far it feels great. The tune they’re gonna put on may end up making some minor changes to how the trans reacts.

Tow mode is nice because it allows the truck to remain in the same gear for longer, as opposed to constantly hunting gears.

I just got a '15 SLT. I’ve never owned anything newer than 10-12 years old. So mint.

Bc I don’t care about gas mileage and v8 noise for days. I do a lot of high way and I don’t want problems down the line with things not being lubed from v4 mode. I hear a lot of horror stories about people motors. Also installed catch can bc the DI oil blow by is real.

Yeah AFM has been known to eat lifters or something.

I didn’t buy a truck with a corvette motor for the gas mileage
