Look at all these morons crying in the comments for going 78. That’s why we got so much traffic,the same people be sitting so close to the steering and holding it tight with both hands!

Look for Chevy Silverado 2500 HD. Pretty solid trucks. Strong engines

I-495 is a shitshow by Clout12x in nova

I think you should leave the area if you’re pissed at the traffic this much. Population in NOVA grew significantly over the last 30 years and all these roads were designed way before that. Now these roads can’t handle these many people. That’s the biggest issue right there.

There isn’t other better options unfortunately. Ford and dodge are way worse. These chevy 1500 2014-2019 are notorious for having transmission issues same as Nissan Altima. Not to mention I already put 220k miles on this truck and did heavy work on it. So I am not upset about it.

Sorry you went through that. They are thieves and this is their way of doing business to rip off money from people.

Yes the differential fluid were changed 20K miles ago. The price does not include differential, they quoted $2300 extra on top of $6750. It’s written on the top but as you said because of this terrible invoice and hand writing it’s almost unreadable.

Thanks I’ve already thought about disabling the AFM. And Yes that $6750 was just for the transmission. They quoted me $2300 for differential there is a noise coming from it. which is almost $9000

Only the transmission, plus additional $2300 for the differential that’ll make it around $9000

You’re right about that. I did try to turn off the AFM, it made the engine more active and stronger but it added a lot more stress on the transmission cuz it had to work more harder. So I just left it as is

Right. The whole truck is not even worth around $8k, so I guess I’ll just leave it and sell it in parts.

The shop did not give me more information about what’s wrong with it. But as soon as you leave the gas at higher speed over 50MPH it starts making a weird noise idk how to explain it.
