My 2006, is a factory swb reg cab with 4.8 and 3.42 gearing. I had a choice from 3 at the chev dealer in Denton when I bought it new. I had a 2002 swb reg cab that was a z71 with 3.73 gears but still had the 4.8. I like the mileage of the 4.8 but the 3.73 gear in the 2002 accelerated better.

There is at least one 2006 with a 5.3 shown on this thread.
