What to do…need help

Hey there,

So I bought my Silverado new in 2018 , it has the 6.2 l and it’s an ltz, has all the bells and whistles.

Since owning the truck I’ve had transmission issues, ( truck not doing into any gear) about 3 times. Dealership said it was fine.

Replaced both wheel bearings last summer

Last summer I had a low oil alert and the dipstick was dry, so the trucks burning oil.

I just replaced a cracked oil pump a few months ago( wasn’t cheap)

Checked my oil today and it’s barely visible on the dip stick.

Truck only had 77,000km on it and it’s paid off. I just feel like this thing is going to be a money pit, I’m like uneasy everyday I drive it thinking today is the day she craps the bed.

I guess the question is, do I trade it in and get back in a newer vehicle and be stuck with vehicle payments again? Or just fix stuff as it comes along indefinitely , which I know it will get expensive when the trans goes/tc/lifters…

Was looking at the new 2.7l and I noticed they have the same ole 8 speed transmission . Rumour has it they have fixed the old problems on 2024 and up?

I need an adult, what do I do with my truck ?
