Who has one? Do you like it? What kind of mileage do you get. I am going to buy a newer truck probably by the end of the year. I am looking at a GMC 2500 or 3500. Gas. 4x4. 2015 or newer. Just getting ideas. I have an 2003 f350. Going back to gas. I don't tow enough anymore. Ideas.

I'm following this one. I've thought about a GM 2500 with the 6.0 for my next truck.

I drive a 2015 extra cab 2500 Hd with the 6 liter engine for work. I don't usually pay much attention to the gas mileage but when I was clicking through the options and number on the speedometer it said I was getting 11 mpg. I believe it. I don't baby it or try to get good mileage. I might be that annoying guy right behind you in the fast lane. I like the truck. Set the cruise and it pretty much stays right there with out the annoying down shift when you go up hills.

I have a 2014 GMC Sierra 2500HD, crew cab, 6 litre. My previous truck was a 2004 Chevy Silverado 2500HD, 6 litre. I bought both of them new. I love every thing about the GMC, except for the gas mileage. It is very comfortable, and very quiet.
Gas mileage on the 2014 GMC is not great. Just driving around town, I get 11-11.5 MPG. Pulling my 25 ft. travel trailer over the pass, either Stevens or North Cascades, I get 8.5 MPG. My 2004 Silverado did a little better on mileage, but this newer GMC has more horsepower out of the 6 liter. On trips up and down I-5 with no trailer, the truck will get around 15 MPG if I keep it under 65 MPH.
If you are looking for a truck with good gas mileage, don't expect the 6 litre to meet your expectations. I was looking around the internet, trying to find a magic fix, and I found this:

Also that's my thing,I tow my boat maybe once a year on a long trip. other than that it's all at the local lakes. My 25 foot trailer we only us it 2-3 times a year so I don't think the extra for the Deisel is needed

I just bought a 2017 Silverado 1500. 5.3 liter
Amazing truck, love it.
I am averaging 18 MPG with half hiway/town. Best I have gotten is 22.1 MPG on a trip from Mercer Island to Lynnwood and back.
Got it 25% off invoice a month ago from Evergreen. GMC's and Chevy's are still on sale right now 17% off invoice
