2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 4dr Extended Cab LT Rwd SB (5.3L 8cyl 4A)
Review
This is a really nice truck! It has a nice style, inside and out. The interior is not cheap like some reviews that I have read. The truck is very comfortable to drive. It took me alittle while to get used to the extra length especially when parking due to the extended cab but the payoff is all the extra room. The backseat also has more room than other trucks than I have seen. There is plenty of power with the 5.3 V8 and the ride is smooth. The fuel economy is better than I expected with a big truck with a V8.
Favorite Features
The interior design was very nicely done. The dual climate control is awesome. I believe every vehicle should have one like it. It works very nice in this truck. The stereo is nice and easy to control. I like the digital odometer too.
Suggested Improvements
None at this time.
This is the top of the line truck

Review
I just traded my 2001 in on a 2003. They have made this truck so great now. The Bose stereo is so nice. Sounds great. Plus the controls on the steering wheel is a big plus. What can I say about a truck that ranks number one each year.
Favorite Features
Bose Stereo system and Steering Wheel controls
Suggested Improvements
Can't really think of anything. Maybe a dummy gage (An arrow) to show which side the gas tank is on.

Review
The stereo is the only thing that has given me problems but when I take it to the dealership takes care of it and all is good again. For the price you get more options for less with the Chevrolet. Fun to drive.
Favorite Features
I particularly like the curb veiw assist and the auto lights.
Suggested Improvements
bigger armrest compartment to allow cd's to be stored easier.

Review
Aside from being appealing to the eye, the Silverado rides like a luxury car. The interior is luxurious comfort and all controls are within easy reach. The stability is unsurpassed for a truck in this catagory. The engine is powerful, smooth and quiet running. Using the 4 wheel drive is simple and smooth. I've been off road in mine and it goes through anything, mud, gravel,standing water. All in all I highly recommend this vehicle. It will turn everybodys head and keep you on the road every day.
Favorite Features
Favorite features would be the tinted windows, the great sound system and the fact that I can still have a pick up and use it to drive my family around.
Suggested Improvements
I can't think of anything on my truck that I would improve.

Review
My previous truck was a Ford Ranger, this truck is far better. Fun 4- wheeling.
Favorite Features
The extended doors open. Many options to choose from. Stereo is great.
Suggested Improvements
The back window does not come with a slider. Tends to have a kick back if you put less than 89 octane gas. Only have standard 16" tires.

Review
I am verry impressed with the Silverado, because when I think of truck I think of Chevy Silverado I support this opinion with a Complaint to DODGE, your A/C stinks, supporting this with the fact that I bought 2 vehicles from The Chrysler Corp. and 1-2 years later the A/C died and i was stuck in 95 Degree K.C. heat. The reason I bought a CHEVY!!!!!

Review
I originally bought a 2wd with the V6 and then traded it in for a 4x4 4dr ext cab 5.3 It has an endless supply of power and feels more like a hotrod than a truck. It is the quietest of the the big three that I tested. I bought from Rob Milliken at Courtesy Chevrolet in Poulsbo, Washington. If your looking for star treatment and rock bottom prices, this is where you need to go.
Favorite Features
Refinement...Quietness If you test drive it, you'll buy it!!!

I honestly can't think of any.

Review
I have bought a few chevy trucks before and this one is much like the rest. I drive my boss' ford truck quite a bit and the chevy is much better in terms of comfort and ride.
Favorite Features
Seats are about the same as the other chevy's I have had, alot more comfortable than the fords.
Suggested Improvements
My truck (LS Extd. cab sport side) and my neighbor's new chevy has had the same problem with wind noise comming from the back windows. Had to replace both rear windows and seals on both trucks. Dealer said this was a common problem.

Review
Very comfortable ride due to 6-way power seats and roomy interior. The instrument panel is easy to read with extras such as an hour meter for the engine. The engine seems to be easy to maintain with the 100,000 mile scheduled spark plug change. A very nice experience so far....
Favorite Features
6-way power seats, Bose sound system, leather wrap steering wheel, hour meter
