Waste of money

Bought it new from dealer , had many problems with it, at 60,000 miles the transmission gave out! Just a waste of money ! Not worth buying!

A great truck...made to pull a camper!

Bought this truck to haul a 5th wheel. Rated to 10,900 pounds, and it pulled 7K with no issues; tranny oil not even over 100 degrees. Loved to drive it! No issues at all!

Good for a V6

It was my first truck. I thought a V6 would be better on gas but it wasn’t lol. The V6 is good for a daily driver if you don’t need to tow too much. For what it is worth I would buy a Colorado instead of the V6. I would get the V8 Silverado instead

Most unreliable

This truck was very comfortable but the problems with the transmission was the most terrible experience ever to have with vehicle that is less than four years old . I really think they should recall all the transmission I have spent over five thousand dollar and the truck still is transmission sick .
