Re: Are you guys as disappointed with 07 and up chevy trucks as i am?

I am kind of at a loss, here. My 2011 GMC has served me quite well for 147,000+ miles. I had a GM recall on the tranny dipstick, due to a issue that the GM engineers found with it cracking. I had to replace a seal on the rear axle at 100,000 miles. Heck from my world that is normal wear.

I get good mileage with the 5.3, 3:42 gear setup and I have no issues with the performance, but that can be attributed to my computer tune.

I did hit a deer a couple years ago, the body took the hit real well and only surface panels and a couple side airbags had to be replaced. It surprised me, that the framework of the truck is so strong in this day and age of trying to lighten up everything on the road.

Happy? YES, I am.
