Default Re: Silverado gas tank strap failure!!

Every Big Block K-2500 Suburban I had previously was ordered with a 4:10 gear. In 2013 the only gear available was a 3:73. I can't complain about the fuel mileage when I am not towing a 10,000 lb. Boat or 8,000 lb. Car Trailer though, 17.5 mpg verses 12.5 mpg with the Big Block. This new Suburban does has a 6 speed transmission and it is better appointed inside with Navigation and dual DVD's. You got to Love technology, but I sure miss the torque of the Big Block!.
