It’s cool, but not $80-100k cool.
I’ve spent a lot of time in a hummer, it’s neat 0-50, I haven’t gotten to drive one off road. I’d rather have a normal Silverado for 1/2 the price or toss a blower on a new Silverado and still pocket $25k
I can’t say I would ever buy one and I bet it would get old after a while.
My Tahoe would be a lot mor fun if it had a blower. Now that the dealer addressed the recall and put in 0w40 vs 0w20 to fix manufacturing defects, I’m sure it would hold up great.
It’s already spent months in the shop because they can’t seem to fix the 10 speed trans shutter at no load and ~45 mph. Only now are they bringing in the regional super technician while my wife rolls around in our 14th rental.
Honestly these newer transmission that chase the top gear at the slowest speeds for “fuel efficiency” is absolutely annoying as hell. I don’t need to be in 6th gear going 30mph on a side street.
Got the call yesterday. The rumble strip feeling that went away for 6 months after changing the trans valve body is considered normal. They can make it go away by disabling the fuel management and force it into a gear.
me: “ Good. now fix it”
Dealer: “ Sorry, GM has deemed this as normal operation”
The service manager even said that super tech had tried to fix it in the past by changing a lot of fuel management parts and it never went away.
Me again: “ Ok, get them to fix the programming. oh, and how many of these problem cars had the recalled 6.2L that also has manufacturing defects?”
Too late for lemon, law. Maybe i’ll start a truck thread with whatever follows
There is some nvh when it goes into AFM. I think there are a few defeat devices out there.
ive had my hummer for 1.5 years and about 20k miles and absolutely love it. Wouldnt buy it new though, you can get them used for like 70k now
