The build quality of this vehicle is great. I have used it for hauling mulch and rocks as well as moving furniture. It is just the right size. The truck now has 172,000 miles on it and currently starts up every time, sounds and runs great. When passengers ride along, they always comment on how new it still looks on the inside. Although it does have a ping or two on the body, I have had many offers for purchase should I decide to sell or trade. It still looks as sporty as when I first purchased it. I have owned foreign models that boasted longevity, but this Chevrolet has been the most reliable vehicle I have ever owned. Although it is a 6 cylinder, it is easy on the wallet when it comes to pulling up to the gas pump. A few years ago, my neighbors tree fell on the roof of the truck. Fortunately, it only left a small dent. I am a true believer that Chevy is built like a rock. I have really considered purchasing a new vehicle, but every time - and I mean EVERY time - I have been to a dealership to discuss details I end up driving the truck off the lot. Compared to the prices of newer vehicles, insurance, etc, I figure at the moment I have the best deal I could possibly get.

I have had this vehicle for over 12 years. It has been extremely reliable. Being an extended cab, it has easily carried my family, work clients and more tools than I can count. The bed of the truck has a heavy duty liner plus a hard cover that hinge folds out of the way when necessary. So the bed has been heavily used to carry equipment to remain dry as well as many loads of lumber for home improvement jobs. Well used, well loved!
