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

I can say that my 1999 5.3 auto had no oil leaks whatsoever from any seal with over 205k miles on it when I sold it...love that engine...the brake/fuel lines and cross-member placement on top of fuel tank totally different to say the least..completely rotten. think the lines were just bad metal..idk..but they all went too soon, even with the under-carrige wash I do religiously in the salt belt. I also barely drove this truck in winter months cause its a 2 wheel dr and as you guys know ..all over the road. All the heat/air controls went around 80k, radio knobs about same time. My sway bar broke at bolt attachment..Never had that one happen to me before..My sheet metal held up great, but again I washed/waxed this truck alot.. other than that , no real issues. Brake lines blew on me at redlights too btw..almost major accidents twice. My chevy mech bud said it was common, but chevy wont recall. Tryin to catch to e-brake with your leg isnt to easy...lol
