z71
Strength:
Great power!
Weakness:
It has a slight tapping noise in cold starts but mobile 1 helped that. Leaf spring rattles over bumps some driveline clunk. But since I was a technician for cheverolet fo 6 years I know that is normal and it does not bother me. I paid 29000 for my loaded z71 and i am very happy with it and I will alwasys recomened a chevy over any thing else Similar Products Used: Ive rode in 1999 fords and did not like the ugly interior,the looks and the feel. The ford 350 diesel my friend bought has less ground clearance than mine and does not come with a locking diff. I have driven dodge and only can see cheap quality dodge is different the trannys have problems.But what I have read is that its plain luck One day everyone seems to buy a lemon. |

4x4 w/ 454
Strength:
Strong,big,heavey,fast,and smart, it has a 454 and I have done some modifications but they all helped for the better. It rides so smooth with such big tires on it and has low noise reduction inside of the cab and it pulls like nothing is behind it and it is comfortable and vary pretty.
Weakness:
It is on it's third transmition and there is a rattle comming from the right passanger vent that I just can not find and I don't want to pay an arm and a leg to find that it may just be a lose screw. They are beautiful trucks but when something goes wrong I just wish it didn't coast so damn much to repair them, because when you buy a chevy they are already way overpriced. I will from now on always drive chevrolet trucks because they are strong and dependable, and I would recemend the new heavey duty trucks because I test drove the new big block and I really liked it too. But I will never get ride of my 454 for any reason, I just wanted to say that chevy's are the greatest and I will always own one. Similar Products Used: Trubo Cummins dodge ram okay but kind of slow |

Silverado ext cab Z71
Strength:
It has tons of power, roomy, good on gas, comfortable seats.
Weakness:
Price, Z71 makes it a bit stiff, sits to low, stuffing a nice stereo system in it was a hard because the rear seat doesnt fold down, my dash rattles, most expensive and hardest truck to lift. Overal a good truck, A bit on the expensive side. I should have kept the 96, I did'nt get much better of a truck, but I sure paid for one. Similar Products Used: 96 GMC ext cab Z71 (the 96 was roomier), 94 chevy reg cab (smoother ride),96 98 99 ford f150's (chevy is 10 times the truck) |

TERRY
Strength:
LOTS OF POWER. DESCENT GAS MILAGE. ROOMY.
Weakness:
BOUGHT IN JAN.2000 BACK TO DEALER FIRST WEEK FOR PULLING RIGHT. AFTER THE DEALER WAS FINISHED,FOR THE FOURTH TIME.I NOTICED A CLICKING NOISE, SOUNDED LIKE AN EXHAUST LEAK. BE ADVISED I THINK SERVICE DEPT.CREATE MORE PROBLEMS THAN THEY FIX. GOOD TRUCK TILL THEY STARTED WORKING ON IT. FINALLY HAVE IT BACK THE WAY IT WAS, BUT WITH NO HELP FROM THE GM SERVICE DEPT. have read all previous reviews. chevy produces good trucks, they sell many, so somebody is going to get a lemon. 2001 models are supposed to have the kinks work out so i might trade. Similar Products Used: DODGE (nightmare). tundra (too small, not impressed) |
