I bought the 2014 silverado v6 super cab brand new back in January for the unheard of price of $26,000. It wasnt probably last on my list of desirable trucks since I thought it was ugly. BUT, I learned to love it. Due to the recent truck shortage, I traded it in (7/21) with 59,000 miles for the also unheard of amount 9f $24,500. It cost me $1,500 to have this truck 6.5 years and 60k miles. If it wasnt for the trade in amount, I would have kept it. Issues I had: fan blower motor went within the first month. Unacceptable for something like that to happen, butI had the factory warranty, so had the dealer replace. 4x4 stopped at around 18,000 miles. Turned out to be the sensor or computer processing unit (still under warranty). At about 50,000 miles, the radiator fan wouldnt turn off. Out of warranty at this point so I had my mechanic fix it. I believe it was a relay and was only about $120. All in all, thats it. All issues still allowed the vehicle to be driven. Id call that a dependable truck considering 2014 was a new model truck. Some hiccups, but nothing major. I went v6 not by choice, but because it was a left over on the dealer lot at an amazing price. I averaged around 20 mpg's which is incredible for a truck this size (my 5.4 f150 got about 12-14). If you are worried about the power of the v6, dont be. Its not like old 6's. Its close to 300 hp/torque, and I towed my 3000 lb camper, but hills could be a challenge. The interior was my favorite part. It has more features than my wifes 2017 Traverse LT. The stereo is decent (waaaay better than my 2012 mustang), but I also changed that to a 7 speaker kicker system. In closing, great truck. 60,000 mostly trouble free miles. I would have easily kept it if not for the insane trade in.

This truck started out with a shifting vibration at different shifting points. Brought to dealer and told it was learning how I drive. This with a load clonking sound when in reverse also told that was a coupling and nothing to do about. Now at 27K and truck is noisier than ever,told dealer truck has A.D.D. Would not buy another GM. At 64K truck needed a rebuid of engine. Dealer and Gm stepped up and took truck back and got me in a 2017.

Here is the Good; Very quite ride and smooth ride, very nice steering wheel, leather wrap is great quality, has lots of wide space in the interior of the cabin, Great step up in the back bumper to get into the bed of the truck, great for what is was built for which is hauling, exterior is very handsome, good looking truck. Here is the Bad; electronic steering always going out, vibrates at about 50mph, the side view mirrors are too small, back seat feels cheap and are like sitting on cardboard, not enough leg room, the whole cabin feels cheap, feels claustrophobic inside, I think the dash board and the instrument panel looks like a cartoon character design it, the whole dash looks dated and it's a new interior, front seats are not that comfortable on long distance, only 18" wheels on an off road vehicle really , gas sucks on this truck I am only averaging 13.7mpg and I don't have a heavy foot, I think the doors where you rest your arm is too narrow and the center arm rest has that useless plastic thing down the center of it where you rest your arm is just stupid, no vents for the back seat, the roof in the inside cabin slopes down into your visual site which makes the truck look cramped poor design, it does not feel like a truck, it feels like a short in height car, they need to make the truck more tall than wide. not enough ground clearance sits to low to the ground, the windshield needs to be 2-3 inches more in height. I am sorry but the new design does not save on fuel like the claim, Ford and Ram do a much better job on the interior and more user friendly and more ergonomic for driver and passengers, the back tail gate does not lock when you use keyless entry system, this is just stupid, in the center of the dash where you touch screen is they have 115volt down at the bottom and you cannot see it, they door handles are lit up, but not enough to make any difference, this is a miss. and a few recalls already and I have not had it a year yet. I will be trade this in for something else (Ram or Ford or Jeep).

Purchased used with 20k, drove it home from dealer and noticed drumming vibration at 60-65mph emedietly. Called dealer, SIX VISITS AND 4 MONTHS LATER!!!!! Problem still there. Took truck to different dealer, and was informed all of new GM Trucks do it. Thank god a majority of the roads in my area are 55MPH speed zones so I can feel this vibration all the time!!! Have you driven a FORD lately???
