Bought this truck brand new in 01.
Bought this truck brand new in 01. Now 24 years later it’s still going strong. Had a tranny rebuild around 175000. Can’t beat these trucks.

Best truck ever !!!!
Bought my most recent Silverado used. It had 143,000 miles. Now , 5 years later , with 324,000 miles , it still runs like a champ ! But there is another factor that I still can't believe it. A little over a year ago the tranny started acting up a little. Got to the point that I now have to drive the truck in second gear most of the time. I'd say for the last solid 8 months. This truck is a beast. I'll never get rid of this one. Way too attached to it. I'm looking for another one just like it as we speak. Kudos to GM for the best truck ever !!!

Extremely Reliable and Great Value
This truck kept me going to work daily and took the family on camping vacations for 14 years. It's been to all 11 western states and will still reliably take us to any one of them at 19 years old. Just maintain it and it will last forever like all the other reliable Chevy trucks on the road today.

Best overall vehicle I know of.
I hate I can't buy another new one this same body style. Almost 20 years and spent very little. Only needed basic maintenance. Love this truck. Awesome 4x4, comfortable and handles and toes well.

One of the best trucks made!
This truck is definitely worth every penny. Bought it for my first vehicle at 16 with 142,000 miles. After over 40,000 miles in a couple years I’ve only had small issues. Never has let me down. And it can definitely take a beating! From over 110° to -50° it always starts up and runs just fine! The A/C works great, it’s smooth, and actually has a lot of luxury features!

2001 Silverado 1500hd
Bought the truck with 215K miles on it (yea, I know). One owner, looks like it was garage kept it's whole life. So far so good. Will keep it pampered and clean as long as I own it. Big bodied truck, 6.0 vortec, crew cab, longer bed. Can't ask for much more. I love it, my boys love it, wife's happy, The End.

This is the most dependable truck I?ve ever owned
This truck has been trouble free for me for 250000 miles. It has only ever had the tires,brakes, and engine oil changed. I love this truck to death because it is so reliable. I live in the rust belt, but as long as you keep your vehicle under coated it?ll be ok. This truck has far surpassed its original value. 17 years of trouble free driving. I?m a contractor who tows a trailer with this during the week and goes off-roading on the weekends. This truck has not had an easy life and it takes it in stride.

Beautiful truck, better if 4x4
Needed to be 4x4 to actually function as a truck. Tow package and HD was all fine and well, but getting stuck in driveway is embarrassing.
