Yes it does, only problem is they filled it up with 87 . It gets roughly the same MPG as my 5.3 did lol (About 18.5 on the highway).

#1 rail your old lady in the back seat

#2 put a tvs 2300 under the hood

#3 get rid of that gawd awful butt plug from onstar on the roof


and then sir, you'll have one badass truck

Sell me the exhaust off of it

They run good, really all you need is a good tune and tcm tune. A set of lpp headers, and a good drop in filter is all I would do until you throw a tvs 1900 on it.

Nice buy! 18.5 isn't bad, my 5.3 gets right at 20MPG, I would take the small decrease for the extra power!

Nice truck. I prefer the look of the new GMC's front fascia setup over the Chevrolet's. I plan to pick one up myself soon, just a RCSB though. Congratulations on the new purchase!

Cool homie. Wanna help a brotha move? Just Kidding.

Now you gotta put that truck to use! There's no better way to break in a truck than to do the following:
