Default Brand new 6.2!

I'm new here. Saying "Hello to all". I just bought a 2011 Silverado with a 6.2 and 3.73 gearing. I came out of a 2008 Silverado with a 5.3. The little I drove this it has nice acceleration. I got it Wednesday and had shoulder surgery Thursday. It's been sitting in the driveway since....

Congrats! I've got 220 miles on a similar truck I picked up six days ago - and love it. Now I've gotta go out of town for a few days, so I'll understand your "pain" (driving wise, not surgery wise!). Get well!

04Silvrado - I volunteer to properly break in your truck while you are on the road to recovery, no payment necessary.

NKPPhil - I can definitely help break yours in while your out of town also, no worries man, you're welcome.

Congrats on the 6.2s guys you're going to love them.
