Everyone I’ve spoken to loves them and yet GM seems to not make many of them.

Agree, they don't stay on lots very long and dealers won't deal on them like the 5.3/6.2 motors if they have one. I wish they'd stick that engine in a Yukon Denali. I'd probably buy the wife one tomorrow.

I mean, I wouldn't be scared of a earlier 6.2, coyote 5.0, toyota 5.7, or titan 5.6, or 5.7 hemi with even a little bit of miles. As long as the transmission had 7 gears or less, the hemi and 6.2 weren't ticking, the tundra wasn't on 37s, the coyote had stock exhaust, and I bore scoped cylinder 7 on the titan to make sure ot wasn't eating itself.

For a brief period most manufacturers made a good V8 with a decent transmission.

Then it all went to shite.
