Review
I bought the truck brand new on April 13th, 2011. I just sold it on April 17th, 2018. I bought two sets of tires, had the brakes done once, and had the transmission serviced once. The truck never gave me any issues.

Runs great in comfort on hwy or logging roads. Canopy keeps tools or camping gear nice and dry. Mileage is average for this size truck, but is highly dependent on the actual octane of the gas you buy. Have achieved 19 mpg hwy, but normally around 14 mpg. Towing travel trailer drops mpg by about 3 mpg. Blue tooth in this truck is outstanding. It's clear and can be turned up nicely. Sirius satellite radio works well on the hwy, not so well in the back woods.

If you want a truck that rides n feels like a Cadillac and tows like a champ(nothing more) buy a silverado. I've had my truck for a year and love it for road trips and towing. Aside from that...yawn. If you want a truck that will JUMP when you hit the gas, get sideways on demand, and still tow when needed buy a Nissan! Sincerely, sad silverado owner

have had this truck over a year now. Love it, has 11500 miles on it. I seem to be the only one that does a review on it to have the bigger 6.2 V8 insted of the smaller 5.3 v8.(had two 5.3 before not that great of a motor, no power). Let me tell you it does not get good gas mileage. 13 in city and 16.5 on highway. I knew this when i got it. The ride is great and the BOSE stereo sounds great. have pull 4 ATVs and all the camping stuff that weighed about 8000 lbs. still passed other trucks like they were standing still and still had more power left. 403 HP is all i have to say.
Best Features
the Blue tooth is great.
love the remote start especialy this winter had two weeks of below Zero. 6.2 403 hp 412 lbft.
Worst Features
MPG but it looks like the 2014 Silverado will help with that.

2012 Silverado - the 6 speed auto trans is a no-go ! Shift points are in the middle of right hand turn speed. Its a poor transmission, and jerky. You wont like the 6 speed auto...
