    Default Silverado

    Who else here drives a Silverado? I have a 1998 K1500 5.0L. Love the truck. I had a 1994 S-10 4x4 4.3L before I got the full size. Don't think I will ever go back to a small truck. I'm to big an ole boy to drive a small truck.

    That's my problem too. I Started out in a full sized pickup. My first truck was a 1962 GMC 3/4. That was a fun project truck. Turned out to be too much work when I was going to school though, so I bought some stupid car. Anyhow, I'm driving a 2002 Trailblazer now, but I'm looking to get a 10 year old Chevy to do some basic hauling and work on the weekeneds.

    I love the full size, can't beat it with a stick. My first vehicle was a 1988 Ford Mustang 2.3L 4 Banger. Not my choice, the old man bought it for me for all of about 700 bucks. Then a Ranger, once again not my choice, it was a graduation present. Of course being a poor highschool/college student I wasn't gonna complain. I wrecked the Ranger - rolled six times landed upside down - not cool. I got the S-10 after I totaled the Ranger and recently traded the S-10 for the Silverado. Won't go back to a small truck or a car. Well, unless the car is a Z28 350 4bbl, 4 bolt main, posi rear, T-top..... Anyway, can't beat a truck

    I've been a full-sized truck guy for as long as I was old enough to drive.

    I first drove a...uh...um...ranger, but it was my take home work truck. Not my choice. I am 6' 4''. That situation sucked. I literally had leg or knee issues everyday after work. But to the good part. Different/better job, much better truck. I drive a 1999 silverado Z71 LS. I do as much as I can to it on a pool guys salary, while still paying the bills. It has 155,000+ miles on it and it drives and looks like its a year old. Im a bowtie guy for life!!

    I haven't got a Chevy Silverado but I've heard they are very comfortable. Are you pleased with its performance?

    Chevy trucks rock! No pun intended, well, maybe a little. I'm currently rolling in an 04 Silverado SS. I LOVE IT!!! It's got all the performance I need to keep a smile on my face and still hauls like a truck. I highly recomend checking out ****************.

    I've been driving Chevy trucks since I could drive. Started with a 1962 GMC 3/4 ton and have a Trailblazer currently.

    My current truck is my first truck. I enjoy this truck! I've owned 2 Camaro's, one was a Z, so I miss the nimble handling but the practicality and reliability of this truck is seconde to none. I had a small problem with the A/C when I first got it, but the dealership just replaced the freon hose and it's been working like a charm ever since. Believe it or not, that's the only problem I've had with it.
