Like A Rock — Great truck! Has never caused me a moments problem. I am religious about Preventive Maintenance. I still enjoy driving it. The only thing I had to replace in twelve years was the front door speakers Replacing a headlight takes less than two minutes. I am a Chevy Truck fan for life because of this rig.

Pros

I've had my Silverado since late 2004. Never had any problems and she's always came thru for me thru thick and thin. I love it. Started out with 45K, now has 108K as of 4/30/2013.

Cons

Gas mileage, mainly, but still not horrible for a full size truck.

She's Been Awesome, But Looking For More "muscle" — Mainly, she has more sentimental value than anything. I lost my mother early 2004 and was left with a small inheritance. In need of a vehicle, I used the inheritance for the truck so its like the last thing my mother bought for me.

Primary Use: Commuting to work

Great Truck. — Performance: Great truck. Nice engine in it. Has great acceleration. Brakes are good. Good handling. Could have a better turn radius but it works! This truck is soooo much fun to drive. It has a good appearance, both interior and exterior.

Nice Weekend Truck — My truck is a good weekend work horse. It gets about 16 mpg but has enough power to pull all my toys. I want to upgrade the engine so get better gas millage and more power. Its great for carrying everything from wood, to furniture. Its a great truck for sure.

Very Nice To Be An Older Model Truck — I like the power in the 5.3 engine, and it was kept up over the years. Handling is very good although the turn radius isn't as good as I have seen. It accelerates nicely and runs like a brand new Chevy.

Great Truck! — Great truck with plenty of power out of the 5.3 L. I changed the appearance with a 3in body lift, 17' KMC wheels and 33x12.5 cooper tires. I have much more to add but for now I have the major points covered. Great overall truck. I love my truck and would recommend a chevy to anyone.
