Chevydude hit on something that seems to be the norm now. The more speeds a auto transmission has , the more problems it has . If it's mechanical , it can fail, the more complex , the more likely to fail. Simple is better, the old two and three speed GM autos worked great in what they were designed for and high HP hot rods too.

Stay away from the 8 speed transmission. Those are the ones that had major issues. Agree, I wish I would have bought the 6.2 instead of the 5.3 in 2018. The 6.2 had the 10 speed 5.3 the 8. I just upgraded my warranty to 100,000 so should be good. So far no issues but it does shift hard ever so often when I down shift from 2 to 1st... but really depends on the incline. Had the truck 6 years and only issue was A/C went out and it was a $1000 repair. Been a great truck.

[this wouldn't be Aldeer if someone didn't offer unsolicited advice or answer a question you didn't ask, so.....]
buy an older Tundra (if you need a pickup), Sequoia or Lexus with the 4.7 and stop worrying about engine issues. There's a reason they're nicknamed the "half million mile engine". You find one that's been properly maintained and cared for, they're about as bulletproof an engine as you will find.

I've owned two and they are pretty much bullet proof but 10-12 mpg is the real avg MPG depending on the vehicle it's in and less if pulling anything behind it.

Why take the gamble with something so expensive? Just get a Toyota.
