L8T is a sick engine, but you are right OP you should sell it, your hands are much too soft for it

>>28640526
Meh. It exists, but its old technology now, also i mean lets be honest... Nobody needs a truck this big.
I want to trade it in for a performance EV

>>28640520
Sell that inefficient piece for something manly, like a Honda Civic or something.

>Nobody needs a truck this big.
No, you definitely don't. But try towing heavy equipment or hay bales with a 1/2 ton and you will wind up killing somebody.
But yeah, get that truck in the hands of someone who could actually use it. You can go buy a camry or some other gay shit.

get a real truck

>>28640526
The real reason Im considering selling is that the engine has what sounds like a lifter tick. Im astonished because I thought this engine wpuld be the last to develop something like that. Also, last night driving, had a couple of hard downshifts from gears 2-1. I dont feel like messig with lifters and torque convertors right now so I feel its best to sell before these issues become serious.
I paid 26k after shipping. Can it be sold without losing my ass?

L8T is a derivitive of the L86 and they also had that "tick", more than likely it's a high pressure fuel pump you are hearing. Very common complaint about the 6.2L too. But you do you boo.
If you can get out of it for what you paid for it you are doing good. Couldn't have depreciated that much if you barely drove it.

Sounds different than the fuel pump and direct injector ticks. Doesnt sound like a manifold tick either. Literally sounds just like a failed lifter, and is only present when the engine is warm.
Its just disappointing that all the modern trucks seem to have there terrible issues when the older ones were so reliable. I have over 300k on my 2008 and it still runs steong, just wanted something with more power and less maitenence than our diesel.

Are you certain? Look up "6.2L high pressure fuel pump tick" video and listen to the difference. A true lifter tick will have a deeper tone than a HPFP tick.
If you are sure it's a lifter, it was probably due to lack of maintenance. Did you look at it's maintenance history before you bought it?

Regardless, if you barely drove it you should be able to get around what you paid for it out of it.

I am pretty certain, as Ive watched countless videos of both the HP tick and some DI ticks as well. Maitenence history looks ok enough with regular oil changes etc, albeit a bit far apart. At 80k miles, I wonder if maybe its due to carbon buildup fucking with lifters? At least Im optimistic I can get my money back.

Here is a recording of the tick

But either way i want it gone.
Make me an offer if you want.
I just want an EV at this point.
ICEVs are retarted

>>28640589
And one last thing, i can use my fiancee's baby father's truck in the meantime, as he is staying with us and they both WFH

I am rich tall and have a lot of sex with beautiful women

>>28640520
I'll give you 8k for it if you give me head in the back seat

>>28640682
Yeah that's a bad lifter chewing up the camshaft. GG

>>28641300
Checked. Thats what I thought too. Very surprised. Its an issue I didnt expect for this engine.

>>28641321
They cheap out on everything nowadays. Hellcats apparently eat cams too.

>>28641332
Hemis are well known for this but the L8T, I couldn't find anything on lifter or cam issues for that one.

>>28640520
>truck is retarded and gay
How does truck intelligence manifest itself? How does a truck have sexuality?

>>28641346
Poor cheap design and backwards features, essentially.
