I am thinking about ordering a new 2007 Silverado, Ext. Cab, 2WD. I am extremeley nervous about the 5.3 with A.F.M. I seem to recall a similar experiment with this technology in the 80's?? Don't think it went over to well. I 'd prefer the 4.8ltr motor but it is not an option on the 2LT. Only with the 1LT. I understand this 5.3ltr has been used since 2005-2006 in Tahoes/Caddies??????Any problems ?I haven't been able to find too much info. on this subject. I am worried about long term problems down the road. I cant believe GM doesn't offer a regular 5.3 without A.F.M. as an option. Any thoughts?? Thanks Bobberino

Replying to: likefire1 (Dec 29, 2006 12:46 am)  The Sierra Denali will have a 6-speed automatic transmission and yes the engine is the same new 6.2 VVT V8 found in the Escalade. My wife wants to buy a Truck or a SUV as our next car while I want to buy a 2008' Cadillac CTS or 09' CTS-V. I might cave in and wait for the 2008' Sierra Denali hybrid and buy that. I however would like to see if GM. is going to make a Duramax Sierra Denali for the 3/4 ton. Rocky |

Replying to: bobberino (Dec 28, 2006 7:58 pm) I will ask you though: That was well nigh twenty years ago. When will you let go of old stereotypes? Back then there was nothing like the internet and very few people had personal computers. Back then, cell phones came with a large carrying bag remember? You'll be just fine. And for added security, you have a 100,000 mile warranty.

I was told in the ELLPS forum that I didn't have a job and should only give opinions on Bikes and Bigwheels  It's amazing how cold some people can be torwards someone who likes and defends domestic cars.

Replying to: readerreader (Dec 29, 2006 11:16 am) Do you like how it switches from 4 to 8 cyl. I am just thinking that sticking with what works and is proven(4.8ltr) is better than this newer motor that is essentially unproven over the long haul. I only tow a small boat so I don't need mega power. Hell, my old 94 4.3V6 has only 160 HP and it was OK for what I Needed (a bit underpowered I admit). But its still kicking with 164,000 with an iffy tranny. GM obviously has alot of confidence with it to make it standard on some trucks???
