Hell On Wheels!! — I love the Duramax diesel. it is the best diesel out there. The performance I have for my diesel is the Hyperpac. The ownership is good and the mileage is good it like 15/22 mpg it is very fun to drive. The interior is good for it age. "The automobile engine will come, and then I will consider my life's work complete." Rudolf Diesel “When you start a diesel hearing turbo whining that is my cup of coffee."

Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.)

Beast — **Performance: V8 6.0 Liter Vortec; MagnaFlow Cutom Exhaust **Handling: For being a truck, with the HD's larger springs, it handles a sports car, there little to no body roll, compared to my friends F150, and F250. Build Quality: Amazing, like all Chevy Trucks. **Appearance: Interior, bolster on driver side slightly worn, all other in Original Condition, Exterior: White, some minor scratches on the rear quarter panel. from the previos owner. **Cost of Ownership: 12 Avg MPG Most maintenace done by a Certified Chevy Service Center **Fun Factor: Fun to drive, but if you arent used to it, it can be trucky to drive cause it is such a large vehicle especially when parking. I've gotten used to it now, and my friends are amazed at the parking spots I've put the truck in. Bose Sound System rocks!! I may add subs in the future

Primary Use: Utility (towing boats, transporting cargo, etc.)

Great American Made Truck. — Very powerful truck, great for towing. Strong six liter engine pulls anything. Looks nice and rides even better. It sucks down the fuel but it is worth it. Now i live in a three truck family. Just need some rims and tires and Ill be set.

Great Work Truck — Build Quality: Havent had it too long, but so far no problems. My dad also has one, and has had no problems with his Car Comparisons: Considered the 2500HD and the Chevy 1500. Picked the HD because of the durability and how well they hold value Performance: Obviously not a race car. Has incredible torque however. Doesnt like going fast (

Beats The Hell Out Of Owning A Ford Or Dodge...i Wont Even Mention Those Foreign Toy Trucks — Tough on brakes and tires, but no problems at all with rest of the truck. OK gas mileage for a HD truck, good towing power for a gas truck. def better than a triton or hemi for that matter. next truck will be same body style but a Duramax and Allison transmission

2003 Chev 2500 Hd 4wd Duramax Diesel — This pickup is powered by the 6.6L Duramax Diesel with the 5 speed Allison Transmission. A number of modifications made to drivetrain giving it about 360HP and 620 lbs torque. On the outside threw on a couple of chrome accents to make it perdy too. At normal highway speeds gets 20-22 mpg. Not bad for a 7,000 lb truck! Currently has 120K miles and still running strong. Too bad the price of diesel got so high. It was my everyday driver.

Farm Truck — This is a great truck for the work needed around the farm. with the long bed you can haul everything you need without making to many trips back and forth. I use it for hauling hay and towing all my equipment.

One Of The Best Trucks I Have Ever Owned — This truck is great at hauling or towing. I had a boat used this truck tow, I never knew the boat was behind me. We would take this truck on our trips becasue it has so much room and easy to drive. You could see over the top of other autos. It is just a great truck.

Good For Family Decent On Diesel — This truck is great for off-road, and pulling anything, the engine quality is good minus the injector problems chevy didnt tell anyone about, its build quality is fair, sqeaks, intirior falls apart too easy, it looks decent but better with modifications, really fun to drive when performance parts are on it.

It Is Just A Fun And Fast Truck. Love Everything About It. — This a bad ass bow tie Chevy for sure. It is a 2003 Chevy Silverado 2500HD. It has the 6.0 Liter. it has about 103,000 miles on the odometer but runs like a champ. It is a blast to drive. It has a cold air intake, true dual exhaust, and a Superchips programmer. This truck is a beast but with the chip I get around 14 to 15 mpg on highway (I have gotten 18 but that was babying it). I have run a 1/4 mile in 16 seconds, not my fastest, though I know it can go faster. this truck is in amazing shape for the year and miles that are on it. Any questions feel free to ask.
