The issue is the cost to find out everything and fix it is going to cost as much a new motor damn near, or a certified motor.
A 2016 with 125k, dropping another 10k into it after rebuilding the transmission earlier this year is not something I am wanting to do.
Anyone have recommendations on which way to go?

Man that sucks I almost posted earlier asking if it was the same truck you had transmission issues with.
If the cylinder is really toast and you want to fix it I wouldn’t rebuild that engine unless it’s really simple. The machine work is rarely worth it, those blocks are a dime a dozen. Id buy a used engine with the old cam that doesn’t have the afm lifters. A lot of guys just bought a whole brand new engine from the dealership (10k) when they dropped a lifter. I absolutely would get a different vehicle before I’d put 10 more grand into the same engine.
I have a 2011 with 210k, ready to spend the money if it ever drops a lifter just because cars are absolutely ridiculous right now.
