This is my first GMC truck and so far I'm pretty happy with it. I have to say though I got what I expected from a 3/4 ton truck. Pulls the loaded dump trailer with ease. Fuel economy is rather dismal but it is a full size pick up with a 6.0L V8 so what can you expect. My power steering pump "whines" which the dealer tell's me that its just the way a 2500HD is. That is the one thing that bothers me the most about the truck.

I use this for trailering, hauling wood, pulling trees, hunting and fishing trips, and occassional weekend trips with the wife and friends. Most everyone loves the truck and the way it looks. I love the 4x4 rear end as it takes me nearly anywhere. Plenty of power, plenty of leg room, and I like the visibility (less blind spots than my '97). I'm not afriad to take it anywhere. I have been in 10" of new snow and on muddy paths in the woods and it just goes. The AC is great and the warms up fast in the winter. I get about 12-13 mpg in town, and 15 on the highway. It does a good job driving with a cross wind. It looks like a truck that is designed to work - not pretty, but tough.

This is a wonderful truck. It rides so smooth you think you are in a Cadillac. This is the second GMC I have owned and I dont think that I would own any other truck!

Three days after purchase the truck was in the shop with transmission problems. It was there for four days leaving me without a business truck. I now have to take it back because the transmission is causing more problems. There is a thumping noise behind the dash that I can't locate. The ride is fine for a heavy duty truck. I really expected more from GMC. The seats are too narrow and I'm a short person. I traded in a 2000 Yukon. I will be looking at the 2007 Tundra next year.
