I have had both and must say I am IN LOVE with my 2015 5.3L CCSB. Great power and driving characteristics plus it will knock down 16-17 city and 22 highway. The AFM really works very well on the DI motors and I have had instances where the truck will be in V4 at 70 mph on a flat highway.

The interior and creature comforts of the 15 outweigh the 13 by a long shot and the truck just flat out rides smoother and is much more quiet.

Cold air, cat-back and tune should put it right in line power wise with the older 6.2L.

Anyone have an idea of what the 2015 5.3 CC 2wd or 4wd is running in the 1/4?

I feel the new 5.3 runs damn near as strong as the older 6.2.

I really like the 5.3 in mine, runs good and gets good MPG also.

Best highway mileage I've gotten over 100m is 23.8 which is pretty good in my eyes for a crew cab 4x4

That gas mileage is great!

I love my 2014. Gets 22mpg hwy and around 19 city. Ran it last weekend at the track and ran 14.52 @ 95 spinning with just a tune. Can't wait to fill it up with E85 and add some bolt ons.
