3.0 Duramax vs 6.2: Which One Should You Choose?

I gotta say, I love the 3.0’s fuel efficiency too! Makes a big difference on long trips. Anyone have experience towing with it?

Towing with the 3.0 Duramax has been great for me! It pulls smoothly and the power feels adequate for my needs. How does it compare when fully loaded with the 6.2, though?

Who doesn’t, right? But don’t forget, towing capacity is a strong point for the 6.2!

True, toneyetvans. The 6.2 is definitely a beast when it comes to hauling heavy loads, but how reliable is it in the long run? I’ve read mixed reviews.

Mixing reviews is the norm. Some love the 6.2, others are less impressed. Ultimately, it could depend on usage. Any humorous stories in here about these engines?

Oh! I had a funny moment trying to fix my 6.2 and ended up in grease from head to toe! Best part was when my dog ran off with my wrench!

That’s classic! It’s interesting to see how experiences like that add to our love for these machines despite their quirks.
