"This is the 5th GM truck i've owned and they've all progressively gotten a little better. Purchased this truck in April, 2008 with 68,000 Miles. I'm now at 140,000 Miles and can say it has been a great reliable truck that has been worked hard and never let me down. I use it often to pull my 20ft ski boat, enclosed 2 place snowmobile trailer, and haul mulch, dirt and rock in the bed and never had a challenge it couldn't handle. Only issues i've had have been 2 brake calipers that needed replacing along with brake pads and rotors on all 4 wheels once and a front wheel bearing. Other than that its been all normal maintenance and a little PM and TLC. I'd highly recommend this combination: 5.3L V8, 4sp auto, autotrac transfer case, 3.73 axle ratio. Also BF Goodrich A/T KO's make this truck almost unstoppable in almost all situations."

"Wonderful cornering tucks into the corners I true pleasure to drive in the Minn winters. Plus huge horsepower Cruises over 100 mph easily goes at 80 for hours in true comfort and feels rock solid doing it Red with the 20 in chrome wheels makes it a attention getter."
