This truck is an awesome mid-size truck. It's easy to customize and easy to take care of. This is the second silverado that i've owned and i will probably never own any other truck. I haven't had to do very much to it since i've owned it, the power steering pump is the only major thing. the gas mileage isn't as good as it was because of the 33x12.50 mud tires but it's still a blast to drive

Pros — everything
Cons — nothing

It's a truck, a good, down home american truck. few small dings in the body, but with the tires I added, and the mods in the engine bay, this thing moves, and works. Almost as hard as me. Taking care of it is easy, cheap, and fun.  It's called the tow truck, because I'm never broken down, or stuck.

Pros — Beefy, Punchy, Trustworthy
Cons — V-8 ---- $4.00 a gallon for gas.

This is a great truck. It is very reliable, only broke down on me once.  It's not exactly fast, but it's a work truck, and a great one at that.  It is great for towing and hauling heavy things, like boilers and a/c equipment.  The gas mileage isn't that great at around 14 mpg, but it's not that bad either.  There aren't any problems with it as far as build quality goes, and it really keeps its resale value.  My father purchased it in '04 for about $10k and it still has a blue book value of about $6500-7000. A great truck and would recommend it to anyone.

Pros — Looks good, power, very reliable, resale value
Cons — Gas mileage

my truck has decent performance standards considering that it is 11 years old already and i am saticfied with the acceleration braking and handleing but i have had to make a quite a few repairs on it though also mostly little stuff but also had a 305 vortec in it that blew up with 70000 miles on it with no warning the appearance is good 11 years old and very rust free i would have to think that the cost of ownership would be about averaqge for thus vehical

Pros — gets me where i want to go
Cons — had to replace the engine

It's a Chevy... they have their own personality.  I like it because it''s stick...I hate that it's only 2WD, but you can't have everything.  It's easy to maintain; doesn't use oil after 230,000 miles.  I'd like to paint it hunter green.

Pros — Stick, V6
Cons — 2WD, red

This chevy has never let me down. always ready to play or work hauling hay, or equipment. I couldn't ask for a better truck unless this one had a manual transmission.

Pros — Having a 3/4 ton with 6 lug axle shafts makes this truck special. I got a 3/4 ton with a Z-71 off road package
Cons — Automatic transmission
