The truck is a tank. Ask it to pull something...no problem. The only downside is gas mileage 12 mpg if your lucky. If your towing a heavy load down to 6-8 mpg. But sometimes you need a Tanaka and mine has reliable. 215,000 miles on it now and I wouldn’t think twice about driving it cross country towing a 30’ toyhauler.

Very reliable tank of a truck. Has never failed on me and has continued to give perfect performance time and time again. Only wish I could have owned it sooner

I bought this vehicle for Towing, I have owned a few of the 8.1L GM trucks. They are becoming scarce because the last one produced was 2005. People mostly run diesels these days for towing, but for all around, less then 10K miles a year, big block gas is the way to go. Love the truck, its extended cab on 37" tires. Not a ton of options, but that is the way I like it, its a truck and does what I need it to do. You won't be disappointed if this is the type of vehicle you are looking for.
