Powerful great for towing and for daily use!
Have only had issues with the DEF fluid... Sometimes it's smoking while driving but causes I mechanical issues. It's very comfortable, 4WD works great, AC and heated seats are a plus. This truck pulls our 43 foot fifth wheel with no issues! Perfect for pulling heavy weight and also as a daily driver

I love my truck, it has never failed me and it always seems to be my go to vehicle for almost any situation. I would highly recommend buying or at least checking out this truck if you're in the market for a working truck. Great diesel truck, would recommend 10/10

My vehicle is a Chevrolet and it is black. I am going to get rims to put on it.
I have not had any problems with my car. I haven't had it but for a little while. I would recommend my car to anybody. The previous car that I had before is not better than the one I have now. My favorite car is a Dodge Charger. But that is my next car that I am going to get.

Great all around truck with a good warranty.
Great truck and able to get 9 years out of it so far. Use for work and travel with 275,000 miles and I am the only owner. No problems with anything and all the maintenance has been done along with pretty good fuel mileage. I would buy another one soon and good warranty.

Love the look and power interior rattles a bit.
Love the truck, I have never had a problem with it. I regularly use it to tow my 22 foot bass boat and you cannot tell it behind you. Very comfortable interior only complaint I have is that the door plastics are cheap they rattle when the truck is on and there is no heat/ac vents to the back seats.

Very Poor fuel mileage but it is a one ton diesel. It is used for some heavy hauling mostly light duty and all of my shopping. 13.9 is best the worst has been 10.8.
Love power trust workmanship. Needs more storage inside

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Melissa M.

Seats five people. Can fit 3 car seats in the back row. Comfortable seats. Heated seats. Big center console for storage. Can haul heavy loads. We pull our 13,000 pound fifth wheel with this truck. Bluetooth is great.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Melissa M.

The DEF system has issues and can cost a lot to fix. We have 6 tires to buy and maintain. We had to get transmission work done which was really expensive. The fuel can be very expensive since it is such a big truck.
