Great job Chevy, Great truck. Probably the best truck ever built.
GM is building some of the best vehicles ever built right now.
From the Volt which beats the Pryus in all test, Malibu and the snob beating ZR1 Vette.

As long as my truck does 0-60, I don't really care how long it takes to do it. As a fulltimer, time is irrelevant. Now, stopping the thing is a different story.....

Agree...stopping is nice!

exav8tr,
Thanks for the explanation on how it works. Hadn't heard of the turbo closing before, should help in braking.

Check out the new Trailer Life as they compare all 3. Unfortunately for Dodge the comps are not as favorable as for Ford and Chevy. Overall the reviewer like all 3 but picked the Chevy. I still like my Dodge and am sticking to it.

WOW
No way did I realize what I was Gettin Started
Yea really I did
It's good to see people expressing there opnion without gettin personal.
I do have a question, I have a 07 Chevy 2500 HD diesel-allison tranny and In tow haul going down hill with 5th wheel behind all I have to do is touch the brake and it goes into auto breaking either with transmission or something else doing it. Anyone elses do this I think its the tranny doing it but I havent noticed the RPM'S going up

With the ever continuing restrictions and regulations for the automotive industry, they have no choice but to continue there efforts to "make 'em better."
