I purchased this truck at a time when gasoline was over five dollars per gallon. This was the perfect time to get a more economical vehicle, and it certainly delivered. I instantly saved money on a per month basis, even with the increased vehicle payment. In addition, it is a very capable and durable vehicle. The Z71 package offers excellent off-road performance as well, with electronic traction control on the front wheels and an Eaton G-80 locker in the rear. True four-wheel drive. This is not a truck where you will get stuck and only have two wheels turning. Combine this with the economic four-cylinder engine and you have an excellent vehicle that I've now owned for over fifteen years and driven about 100,000 miles with zero significant repairs needed. In fact, I have yet to need any maintenance beyond the typical. I've replaced the battery, the air filter, and changed the oil. Nothing more. Couldn't have asked for a better experience and, even though I was already a pro Chevrolet guy, I'm definitely even more of a Chevrolet supporter now. Keep up the good work guys! Regular people need regular vehicles that are well built and capable of tackling the daily battles.

The truck is hardly a truck. The engine has multiple misfires in the engine, and it can't pass inspection. It had a bad sensor when I first got it, and it sucks gas down real quick for such a small truck. It has rear-wheel drive, so it slips and slides all over the place in the snow. I wouldn't recommend this truck to my worst enemy.
