Thanks for all the help guys. Picked up a fancy 2024 Silverado with all the cool tech options and a ridiculous 6.2L engine. Worked out the cost difference in fuel (including premium cost) and it was around $450 per year extra at my average of 8k km per year that I've driven over the past 20 years. 23k km on the truck, shows brand new. Dec 2024 build so after the recall issues were "fixed" in the factory. Got a 5 year bumper to bumper on it because I still don't trust it, but I don't trust any new vehicles. And I have to say, the sport mode is pretty awesome. Non stock colour and non stock 6-6 box which were big factors for me as well. $70k out the door so I'll have a payment for a few years, but I like the warranty over some of the older stuff.
