Hi Everyone,

I'm not really sure this is the best forum to ask this question Let me know if it should be posted somewhere else.

I'm close to making a deal on trading our 2020 Chevy HD 2500 Duramax in on a 2025 Chevy HD 3500 Duramax.

The trade-in the dealer is offering is more than reasonable. Looks like the deal on the new one will be pretty respectable, too.

We've only got 62k miles on the 2020. It's been a great truck. Mainly used to tow a Jeep or Bronco to Moab every year from Indy.

Just wondering if there's anything I should consider about the new build. Things like the electronics, maybe?

Thanks for any thoughts you can share.

Jeff

I love my 24, it’s a great truck. I really like the electronics, the safety features are nice.
I love my truck, too. I really like when towing all the those features. Hopefully they have fixed the tranny issue with the newer ones. Just did my first tow since the repair and all was fine. I've got a big tow coming up in two weeks as well. You will enjoy the vehicle.

Hey Everyone,

The dealer was great to work with on the new truck. They offered a very fair trade-in price for the 2020.

We took delivery on Monday. Work has been a little hectic, so I haven't driven it since bringing it home.

There are some nice changes, and some that I prefer that were on the 2020. All in all, I am very happy with the new truck.

Thanks for all the input.

Jeff
