They get great mileage but under load they seem to get cam gear slippage and that ends badly. My cousin's boyfriend had one to pull his bassboat with and he had a cam gear slip pulling an empty uhaul trailer to salt lake city and ended up with a new engine having to be installed under warranty.
VM Motori is owned by Fiat, used to be owned by Fiat and GM, but I believe Fiat bought out GM.

I get 15-17mpg pulling my big bay with my Duramax. After I install the delete kit, it will jump up to 19-20.
