Fuel use depends on the 6.6L gas V8 or Duramax diesel and how hard you work the truck. No official EPA figures exist for these heavy-duty pickups. Expect higher consumption when towing or hauling. the tank size supports longer ranges between fills.
Servicing follows the oil-life system and a 7,500-mile interval for tire rotation plus basic checks. The manual lists additional items by mileage. Diesel models need DEF top-ups. Keep up with ball-joint and linkage lube on this chassis.
Safety starts with a full set of airbags, stability control with trailer sway, hill-start assist, and a rear camera. Higher trims and packages add blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alert, parking sensors, and Teen Driver tools.
Living with the truck means watching fluid levels under heavy use, rotating tires on schedule, and scanning for recalls. The stiff frame and durable bed handle work well if you maintain cooling and brakes. Higher trims stay comfortable for daily driving between jobs.
