The Silverado is a great truck. I had a 2010 F150 with the 5.4 V8 before the Silverado. I admit I trade a lot, and had planned to keep the F150, but there were things happening with the F150 that made me think it was going to have issues in the long run. Thinking about 60k+ miles worried me. When I started looking at a new Truck I looked at the F150, Ram, and the Silverado. The Silverado seems to be a more rounded package for me. For less money I got a lot more truck (The All Star Package) Chevy also had some rebates with the rewards card and 0% financing. The trucks bluetooth seems to work better than the Sync found in Ford

I have had noting but disappointments from my 2011 silverado i purchased new. From the bed rails that dent from falling acorns to brakes that overheat when the truck is empty, simply exiting the freeway???? you cant pump gas into it because they changed the down angle but no gas stations around me are updated. the traction control button stopped working at 39,000 miles, so I took it appart and found it was super glued together from the factory or dealer I dont know which but definitely cracked/broken plastic bits obviously glued back together???? (are you kidding me??? no I am not) when I asked costumer service they have nothing.

I have owned my 2011 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab LTZ now for two years (bought second hand) and I have to say that I'm very happy with my purchase. The truck offers all the creature features I wanted and gives enough space for the family on long trips. This truck in the 38,000 miles that I've driven it has only required the routine oil changes, set of tires, and new shocks. The 5.3 V8 offers plenty of power for towing a 18ft fishing boat; for a truck, the fuel economy is good and averages around 17mpg in the city (mix of freeway & city streets). I will say it took a bit to get use to the 6-speed transmission as the shift points are different then the 4-speed I had in my 2002 Silverado, but with that said, the transmission does not hunt for gears and is quite responsive when needed.

Have owned since new. Has been basically problem free. Other than the drivers outside door handle breaking off, and the Mass Air Flow Sensor needing a good cleaning, which I did myself, the vehicle has been trouble free. Tires and batteries as required after 56000 miles….no complaints. Towing package, and 5.3L engine make for comfortable light trailering.
