Good Truck, Good Friend,
First of all its's a Chevy truck, not always the fanciest or most stylish, but they start, run and do their job every day. I have had a few issues with it, driveline clunking due to excessive clearance between the yoke splines and transmission output shaft, it uses more oil than it should, I blame the AFM fuel management system that has had it's issues. I have replaced the valve cover gaskets and oil pan gasket x 2 times.
It certainly doesn't like Mobil One oil, goes through it like water, but I have found other synthetic brands that do better at the same viscosity rating required. Of course there is the vinyl side strips that turn an ugly brown after a couple years in the California sun. All in all, I would buy it again. It's got 120K miles on it know and I am pretty sure it will make 200K
