Turning capabilities are great, as well, and despite being a large truck, it is nimble and can get out of it's own way. The ability to add top rails and a tonnoeau cover has helped with tasks. Having second doors helps and gives us the room we need to load other passengers. The seats are made of leather and keep things from getting wet and are easy to clean. The doors are sturdy, and help me getting onto the side rails. The liner in the bed is fantastic, and keeps it from getting damaged. Also, the ability to load the truck with many items, especially long ones, has been great. There is plenty of power in the truck, which has been helpful carrying things. The gas mileage isn't as good as a car, but it has been about 14 to 16 miles per gallon. It has features that I didn't know that I would want, such as heated seats and backs on the seats. The four-wheel drive has always worked well. It has very little rust, even though it is 12 years old. My Chevy 1500 Silverado Z71, though used, has been a very solid truck. I then proceeded to drive my friends home and actually got suckered into shoveling a few driveways before I headed back home to sleep. I guess it pays to own a Chevy pickup during those tough months. But not many people were on the road due to the weather. I told them to hop in the back, and we went for a ride downtown to see who was around. They were outside shoveling the driveway. I drove for about another 30 mins until I reached my friends house. I had no issues with the truck, and she performed like a champ when the abuse was happening. I look forward to doing it again this year when the white stuff comes to town. The truck went round and round for about 15 mins spinning out of control. After stopping for a coffee and some donuts, I proceeded to the local high school and started doing donuts in the parking lot. I had no problem plowing through the high snow banks. I decided to take my truck out for a ride to see how much snow was on the ground. One time, a few years ago, it was snowing like crazy. If you are like me and hope to get the most mileage out of you vehicles, I would check out the Chevy 1500 ![]() I plan to purchase another vehicle like this when the time comes. I bought this truck 2nd hand from a friend. The engine has 300 horsepower and will never let you down. You can pull a trailer or camper with this vehicle also. It was formed with quality steel from Canada. There are a few chips in the paint down to the metal, and no rust is preset. Chevy Trucks don't seem to rust out either. The rear end is a 3:42 axle ratio, so driving on the highway is a breeze. You can fit a Fridge or couch in the back. Surprise purchases are never a problem either. I can choose to drive it to work or the local dump to throw out trash. From time to time, I have received comments about how it looks from others. I am able to perform all of the service tasks by myself. It has four-wheel drive, so I never have to worry about getting stuck in the snow. The interior is very clean and comfortable. It has plenty of power but also gets very good fuel mileage for a heavy truck. ![]()
