It has great towing ability.
I like the power it has to pull stuff. The weight allows me to carry a lot of stuff in the bed. The 4 doors are great when I have to take my kids somewhere.

Great truck for a great price.
Spacious I have three children and three car seats that easily fit in the back. I have had the truck for five years no problems have only taken it in to do maintenance. It runs smooth. Get good mileage and filling up the truck is not as expensive as you would think.

Very powerful, runs great, drive great
Great running and towing vehicle. Very comfortable, not really a Chevy person but I have to admit I would get another Chevy diesel truck.

It does use quite a bit of fuel and so it is best suited to work hard.
It's big and works hard. It is also comfortable for such a large vehicle. It uses a bit of fuel so can be expensive to operate on a daily basis.
