I have had this truck for 15 months now. It has been in the shop four times, and tomorrow will be the 5th. THIS is my way to work!!! Anyway, first the parking and collision electronics went haywire, the dealer told me I was nuts, then another dealer re calibrated it and it is fine. My front bumper looked 10 year sold after two weeks. The paint fractures off with insect strikes!! No kidding!! I was told that was normal, then if I lived on a gravel road that was why. So the rocks are flying in front of me and then I am running into them? I live on a secluded private road, just me, and I do not drive over 10 miles an hour on it as I do not like the dust buildup. So that was a few times in and still no resolution, they say that is normal. A body shop agreed with me, but to no avail. Now I have a severe rattling on the passenger side. Took it in, they said it was a protection plate and it was fixed. Guess what, that wasn't it and it is worse now!! I am awaiting them to tell me it is not covered by warranty. WORST VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED!!! Trade in value is low due to front bumper and rattle, otherwise it would be gone already!!!!!

Overall Best Truck I've Ever Owned

Trucks are now expensive, and this one is no different; but after 5000 miles I can say it was worth the cost (I think) Safety features (like active lane assist and auto braking) and handling are superb, while still reminding you its a truck (which is a positive in my book) Plenty of power for towing and passing, but decent fuel mileage. A very small rattle in the center front console that is a design defect but should be simple to fix when I get around to it, otherwise the truck is rock solid.

An other great Chevy truck

I had a 2013 Z71, which I was very happy with. I sold it to my son. The new 2018, feels a little newer. Just a little, because my old one only had 30,000 miles on it. I have a 5000 lb travel trailer. I have 7000 miles on the new one, mostly towing the trailer. Experienced zero problems. My truck had the six speed transmission. Maybe this is a better one, than the eight speed, as I can see from some of the reviews? It's smooth and flawless accelerating and cruising. Performs well in the mountains when towing. I only had it for six month and only have 7000 miles on it. I cannot think of a single complaint.
