I review the 2024 Chevrolet 2500 HD 6.6L GAS V8 L8T engine with the New Allison 10 Speed Transmission. I explained why this 10L1000 Allison transmission is not the same as the Allison 10 speed with the Duramax. I also go over how this new 10 speed transmission can benefit the 6.6L gas V8 in the chevy 2500 HD trucks. I discuss fuel economy, MPG, acceleration, low end torque, increased towing figures and power and performance while road testing this new 2024 chevy 2500 HD with the 10 speed Allison transmission.

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. I got my hands on the new 2024 chevy 2500 with the big old 6.6L gasser V8 and this truck now comes with the 10 speed allison tranmission also known as the 10L1000 which is a massive upgrade for this engine platform.

The first major thing I wanted to do is tow with this 10 speed and see the difference between the 6 speed transmission in the 2023 and older trucks. but that will have to wait until next week.

but taking a closer look at the allison 10 speed unit, the first major difference is the increased towing capacity the new 2024 truck with the 6.6.L gas engine can tow more weight simply with the addition of this new 10 speed transmission.

the second major point I wanted to talk about is how this transmission with the gas engine is NOT the same as the allison 10 speed with the diesel engine. this does make sense because the gas engine is not even making half the amount of torque the diesel engine makes. but I think this may disappoint some people knowing you are not getting that crazy strong internals in this transmission with the gas engine.

Lastly I take this truck for a road test and go over things like acceleration, low end torque and fuel economy all compared to the 6 speed transmission. acceleration is greatly increased but fuel economy seemed to stay pretty poor despite having the new unit.

hope you guys liked the video.
