GM is dropping the current 3.0, but replacing it with a new version for 2023.
New Duramax
Yes and it sounds like some good changes are coming, but I still believe diesels are being targeted by the EPA and worry they will be the first victom of the EV/EPA push.
1780 lbs with a 12,900 tow rating.
That's why I waited 3 years to buy mine. The new ones may have issues and I would still would have waited at least two years to buy one to be sure they were ok. Remember the LBZ back in 2007? It's now one of the most desirable Duramax engines. I didn't want to wait and I am totally satisfied with what sits in the driveway!
Just curious what your payload # is?

Did you find the amount of DEF you used to be excessive? Its the only point I have heard from those that I know who own one.
It just dropped to 3 bars (just under 1/2 tank) at 2900 miles and I put 2.5 gallons and that filled it up. Simple non issue
