PAFarmerSS Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Hey guys. Looking into buying a2003 silverado 2500hd for my daily so I can park the SS for the weekends.. The truck has a camper package on it though. Does anyone know exactly what this consists of. Guy told me when you let of the gas it's almost like there's an engine brake? Can that be programmed out for better gas mileage? I need info? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jddmj Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Sounds like he maybe talking about the tow/haul button. A good tuner can reprogram that button, and make it do whatever they want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BAD2K Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Lol the dude sounds like a retard. I also think he means the tow/haul button. You actually have to push the button to use it though, so no need to tune it out. It's on the tip of the shift lever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to look at it tonight so I'll see what's up. Just trying to figure out what all the camper package details Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bowtie Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 (edited) Probably special gearing, dual batterys, trailer tow platform, engine oil & trans oil HD coolers, larger radiator, prewired for aux. rear power accy's??

Sounds about right. Said it had daul battery's. 4.11 gears and the coolers. Just trying to figure out the trans and if I can re tune it. I'm sure I can. Just need to find somewhere in the philly area Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downeast Johnny Posted September 10, 2015 Report Share Posted September 10, 2015 I generally figure a towing package is a positive option when buying. Not sure on the "engine brake" deal but I am not sure that it would cost you in fuel consumption. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EXGM Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 LOL, I haven't seen a "camper pack" since like the 70's.... I wonder does the truck your looking at have the 8.1 with Allison? If it has the 8.1 buy your own gas station as they are anything but easy on gas.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
