Chevrolet 2500HD with Duramax/Allison.
No problems so far. Has the Duramax with the Allison tranny which is an outstanding combo. Rides like a car, pulls like a tractor.

Big and beautiful. Has become one of our most favorite cars ever.
It is amazing! Power seats and lots of gadgets, nice and comfy with room to grow. Gets me to where I need to go, has plenty of space for me and my family. Does need some work on it, new tires and brakes but is running and is beautiful! We love it and it takes good care of us.

The Duramax engine is a heavy duty engine that will last a long time. I have 282,000 miles on my truck and it still runs like it is brand new
Love the Allison transmission and the Duramax engine. Both are lasting forever

I have had a Ford and a Dodge truck. Chevy is my choice to pull my camper.
I love my truck. It is very durable. It is exactly for pulling a camper. The primary purpose was to purchase a vehicle to pull a camper. This truck is very durable for pulling a camper. Haven't had any issues yet. The only item that I wish it had was a newer radio. The radio does not have the ability to play a CD or an iPod. Have to have adapters to play either or.

It has been very dependable and comfortable on long trips
I like its comfort, mpg it gets,and the feeling of security when driving it. I don't like parking in tight lots or its large turning circle.

Small thing I dislike about my truck.
I love my truck. The power it has. The comfortable seats. There are only three things I do not like about the truck after driving it for 15 years, and they are. 1 gas mileage, but you are going to have that with a big truck with a big engine. 2 it is hard to park in small parking lots. 3 I cannot switch out the radio without screwing up my electrical system.

A full 12 inches of lift sitting on 20 inch wheels wrapped in 37/13.50/20 tires
It's an older truck , it's black with a long bed and a custom front bumper .. I have lifted 12 inches on 37 inch tires with a full set of bilstein shocks all the way around it. And tons of horsepower over 400 to be exact.. Gets me anywhere I need to go regardless of rain snow or shine. It has a new transmission and transfer case but the motor is over 250,000 miles and doesn't use a drop of oil

Dead Chevy Silverado 2500 HD
I love the look and power of the truck. Just bought it in November. It drove great with no issues. 2 days before Christmas it just shut down. It would start run for 10 to 20 seconds and dies. This is a serious problem but know knows what is wrong with it. Would like to know what is wrong with it. Getting tired of it being a yard ornament

I love my truck, wouldn't trade it for the world and Its diesel.
Cheap interior, cheap buttons, bad sound system, but rides really nice and it is very reliable. I have upgraded the radio because the original didn't have the option for aux.

The brakes are brand new. I love the color. It still runs very well.
It is good for what I need it for. It is sturdy. I like the power.

Money hog/gas guzzler Silverado 2500hd.
O2 sensors need to be replaced constantly or the gas mileage is horrible. O2 sensors are expensive but gas prices are high too. This truck is a money hog! There's been many things that have had to be replaced since I purchased the truck, glad my fiancé knows how to work on vehicles!
