- Today I drive and review the all new 2020 Chevy 2500 with the 6.6L gas engine!

I bought one. So far so good. No problems, good truck, plenty of power, pulls trailer just fine. I traded my 2018 high country with the duramax diesel for it. If you dont pull a big trailer everyday I'd recommend going gas.
How much weight do you usually tow?
I would like to know as well.
How's your fuel economy PJ on the 2500? Towing(what weight?) and not towing.
I just did the same thing, traded a 2015 duramax. it was about to need a new turbo and injectors and it was cheaper to trade. pulls all my trailers just fine and gets good mpg
Great review. Traded in my 17 1500 denali for the 2020 SLT recently. Love it
I just purchased the 2500HD LT in black. Loving mine!
I have the exact same truck color and all...plus moonroof and stepbars!!!
Love the truck!
Ben hardy when you guys get the first 2020 ford superduty can you review it.. I appreciate it if you review a 2020 ford f450 if you a chance
Nice truck the scenery is beautiful by you.

Awesome reviews. Have you done a review on the chevrolet/chevy 2019 blazer RS sportier appearance look or the premier - luxurious look. Would love to see a review on that vehicle.
sonny wong thank you and I have done a blazer, look in my Chevy playlist
I have the Chevy 2020 2500HD. W/T model. Been pulling wedge car hauler with it. My truck doesn’t squat with the trailer loaded and there is plenty of power. It handles the trailer better than I would have expected for not being a dually. I don’t get any sway when pulling or stopping. I hav a regular cab wich makes a difference I believe. I am very happy with it. I traded. 2020 Ford for it. I find the Chevy to be stronger than the 250 for towing
You make it hard to choose a new truck. Love the reviews.
GMC HD's look better and ride great. Just tried one and loved it. Will try to get one in the spring. Saving up my pennies so I can put more down.
Needs a bed step in front fender to get into engine compartment. Short people problems. Best looking trucks out though
That's a nice truck Benny
What was the difference in payloads, 5th wheel tongue weights?
Not sure if I want to order a 3500 with the gas engine for more payload or order an f350 with the 7.3 gas engine.
I have a 2500 gasser already. I could use more payload though. I don’t have a need for diesel.
Thanks!
The back seat storage compartments come with which model and package??
I’m in love with this truck, I believe it looks amazing, idk why people don’t like it
I love it too just got one the other day a White custom trim
It is a great looking truck. I loved the first time I saw it.
Me too. Just bought it.
I don't like that step on the bed. Looks stupid.
The 2021 2500 and 3500 ride about the same, why not spring for the extra payload on the 3500? You are future proofing your truck if you wish to upsize your trailer down the road.
I own a 1500 All Terrain with a 6.2L, should I trade for a 2500 gas? Mainly pulling a trailer trailer.
I love the looks of these hds from Chevy...best looking imho
I agree 100% but not a lot of people agree though.
Great truck
Enjoyed the vedio. Wish you would have mentioned towing. I have a travel trailer to pull
Towing capacity of 14,500lbs payload of 3,565 to 3,900lbs.
Nice truck
Do it have the surround cameras
Ben, cool old school shoes.
🤣🤣🤣
I'd like to drop a plow on the front end winter after winter intill the motor and transmission quits. Nuff said.
Explain why you titled it 2500 or 3500. You spent 6 minutes as a salesperson instead of doing the quick walkaround you promised. One note while driving about preferring the payload of the 3500. That's it?
The price tag of any new 2500 from the big 3 is why I kept my old 2500 and bought a car instead. So if i go on a trip take the car. If I need to haul I take the truck.
4:02 a horse?? 😂😂 Cool review anyway 👍
Ante Petković thank you😂👍🏻
I was wondering what that noise was too
No LED headlights ... It's 2020, the Korean and Japanese SUV's all have LED's these days, even most Siilverado 1500 models are all LED... Also, I think I'd miss the radio audio volume controls that seem to be missing from the steering wheel ...
GM puts their volume and tune buttons on the back of their steering wheels. Have done it that way for many years. They are pretty easy to reach and use when driving
So that would make or break your decision 🙄 clearly not a real truck driver
What's the price tag again
Hey ben, were those headlights halogens or LEDS?
Mr. Well halogen
@@BenHardyCars need an LED upgrade right away
Any idea how much longer until the 2020 Ram 2500s come out?
nicktilliman next month ordering starts hopefully
Nice review. Like I've mentioned before, can't believe you don't take these trucks out on the highway. Even a short test at 60 or 70mph would be great
Ty Tomlinson I’m limited by location sometimes
Would you recommend an older version of a Silverado 1500? Like 2011?
Erin Barnett as long as the previous owner maintained it well
I have a 2009 LT Z71. I got it used in 2013 with 60K. It has 125K now and some battle scars, but she's steady as they come. I got mine from a grandpa, so I like to believe he took care of her before me.
I have a 2009 crew cab LT. 227,000 miles from new. Never failed to start. Only thing other than brakes and tires was the engine mounts at around 200K. Change the oil. Maintain.
Yes I own a 2011 1500 only complaint and I mean only is the AFM not good for the engine in long run has history of failing lifters, get a tuner to make it V8 all the time or just get the 4.8 instead of 5.3L but besides that their bulletproof
Ben, could you spend more time with driving impressions and mpg instead of showing the truck features?
that is a bad ass truck....ill be dumping my 2019 1500 in year or so, everything about it is great....and best looking truck hands down, maybe this xmas when they discount the crap out em….12-15k off would put it @ around 40k and that's a lot of truck.....
Did you ever buy one?
@@BC3485 I did
I'd like to throw that engine in a 99 Camaro.
Can you get a LT model without the chrome front end
I am wondering the same
What would be the advantages of buying gas over diesel
Savings 10k+ off sticker, cheaper maintenance, no def cost, if you don't tow all the time gas is the way to go.
You keep saying “market adjustments.” What does it mean?
Not all vehicles are sold at MSRP, some are sold above and others below.
Kid, you better hurry up before the salesman comes to shut you down. LOL
John Mills what???
@@BenHardyCars Sounds like he is saying you look young. Sounds like a compliment.
Why did you title it regrading the 3500?
John Sharpe watch the driving portion of the video
Nahh, Big Horns are cheaper and have zf8 instead 6 speed...i've seen trim blend big horn with painted bumpers and panoramic sunroof for 46k
Really? Panoramic sunroof on 2500/3500, r u sure u weren't looking at a 1500?
@@garrettsnuff yes you're right it was a big horn 1500 wrong comparison sorry
Edit: I still like the price for 5th gen, 4th gen used to be 40K
You get what you pay for. The Dodge are pos.
I have a 1500 with the ZF8/hemi
Its a pavement princess. Put any weight in the truck and its useless. Horrible to drive in deep snow because the traction control is way too sensitive .
I need a real truck again like my old Silverados. That's why I'm here
The ugly package comes standard
Never understand the fabric/carpet fender liners 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️..is the worst material to use in that location..
Dampens noise
Cleans off easy too
It's some eco BS.
6.2 is 420/460 hp and torque. Don't get it.
In heavier trucks they retain torque but derate hp . Torque is the only thing that matters when your towing
The 6.2 isn’t meant to work as hard so it can push the limit a little more. These heavy duty trucks however are meant to run at 100% of their power 100% of the time. so while they’re a little less powerful they can still run at max power all the time where as the 6.2 liter can’t.
Forget the Chevy 2020 2500HD gas version!, they dropped 4.10 gear option which has been around since the beginning of time.
2019 and earlier versions offered 4.10 rear gear ratios. Here is the difference in performance in max trailer weights for 2019 and older crew cab short bed models with 4.10 was 14200#, and 3.73 were 9700#.
It would have been ok if they changed the transmission ratios but they didnt on the gas version!
From 14200# to 9700# is a huge difference, saying you make up for it by increasing the engine torque wont make up for it on the hills. You need the extra gear ratio on the hills because the RPMs will drop too much when it shifts. Also the 3.73 will put more stress on the clutches that engage when the transmission shifts.
I love my 2012 2500HD with gas, but the gears on the hills are barely acceptable and I cant afford to make them worse. Time to go to Ford that offers 4.30 gear ratios!
Or just replace your Chevy gears with 4.10s and stop bitching about it.
But the new motor makes 100 more foot pounds than the old truck
The newer gas models with the 3.73 is 14,500 trailer weight.
You know, GM use to be known for good styling of their trucks. So what happened to this thing?
I Love This Tank!!! Mad Max style.
Yep
It’s the giant radiator they are working around
❤🌎👍
Cranking up a motor for a couple seconds. Nice.
What harm will that do
Some of it looks like a Toyota, Ford did that for a while with head lights ,looks like they put them in wrong.
Making me seasick...
Nice review but please get a second person to hold the camera.
I don't like the chevrolet written across
The front.
I wish it looked like the 1500. The front is fugly.
I don't like the 6.6 so let's just say 400.
Dizzy dizzy. Slow down
I think the 2020 Chevy is ugly.
Brian is me our is that front end the ugliest thing to ever be on a truck
I love it!!
a large bra is recommended to completely cover the goofy front end
Stop talking about your wife that way.
Ugly front end.
Nah, just bold. Not for the meek.
I’ll stick with my f250 superduty black ops
Enjoy the infamous death wobble. It’s coming.
I like how you name the truck as if people give a flipping shit lmao. I gotta say your comment cracked me the fuck up, such a bad ass hahahahahaha
Gad damn that thing is ugly af!!
Stop using the Lord's name in vain.
@@adamshaw8214 obviously you can read , silly goose... plus there is no god just sheep that believe a book of fiction..
Dude... I drive an 2015 1500 LTZ Silverado with 6.2L 425 horse and associate torque on an 8 speed transmission. My 1500 will eat the 6.6 for breakfast. Only GM to de tune an engine of that displacement to an pathetic 401 horse and 6 speed tranny. Avoid this truck if you’re planning on towing anything of consequence.
Its not a race truck its a 3/4 ton. Talk about apples to oranges.
420 HP
Do some plowing or heavy 10k towing or longevity in general with your truck. This one will win all day long. Simple and robust, just what company’s want.
These trucks are built for working not playing around.
