centralsaskhunter Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 What's everyone's favorite truck? My favorite is my 98 chevy 1500 4x4, 330,000km and still running strong. My only fear is that one day it just won't start. I won't have to worry abouyt getting another one for a while, reliable chevy's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhunt Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Chevy. Got a 98 too, ours is a 3/4 ton ext cab 4 wd. Got 160,000 miles on it, would like to have a newer one with 4 doors, but don't need another payment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Chevy. Got a 98 too, ours is a 3/4 ton ext cab 4 wd. Got 160,000 miles on it, would like to have a newer one with 4 doors, but don't need another payment. Ditto, almost. Mine's a 2003, 127K on it, and I don't want to make payments on a new one either.

RangerClay Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Almost every truck I owned was special for one reason or another. But my first truck, a 1982 Chevy holds a special spot. That truck drove around a lot of girlfriends and could go anywhere I told it to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeramie Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I am a Ford man. I have had so much luck with their F150 line. I would love to upgrade to a 250 crew cab but dont want another payment and dont technically "need" an F250. I do however think the best engine ever created was the Chevy 350. While they are not my choice for a truck the 350 is a rock solid, versatile engine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbeck Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Had this in a canary yellow, I would hate to try to remember all the places I had this thing. Boy do I miss her, my brother rolled it 5 times christmas eve a 25 years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Can't remember exactly what year it is. I don't really have a favorite truck. I've owned one of each...Dodge, Chevy and Ford.....they all got me from point A to point B with no problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun_300 Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 If I could get a new one I'd get a 2012 Sierra Extended Cab 4x4 fully loaded with the 410hp 6.2L under the hood. Unfortunately I don't have an extra $50,000 in my pocket. Love my 2000 Silverado 2wd regular cab short box 5-speed with 450hp+ under the hood. 247,000km on the truck, 0 on the engine that I built, LS6 5.7 Vette engine I fully rebuilt with a big cam and different heads and custom tune. Probably will go on the road in the spring. Want to get the body fixed and painted hopefully over the winter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHISKEYSWAMP Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 I have an 02 silverado with about 160,000 miles on it... knock on wood, it still runs good and have invested a little money into maintenance this year to keep it that way. Only real issue is the rocker panels are rusting bad, which is common for that body style apparently. I'm hoping my buddy who does body work will be able to get those replaced and redone sometime this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PA_Spike_King Posted September 27, 2011 Report Share Posted September 27, 2011 Boy do I wish I had this truck back as it was my favorite and the most power as I put a 350 horse 350 vet engine in it BUT got married and left her go. :bang: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kat Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 I've had a dodge that was really nice, and a new 2011 1500....but neither hold a candle to this new Denali w/ a duramax. Simply the nicest, best looking, most powerful truck I have ever owned. For the first time EVER, I don't see other trucks and want them. We were meant to be . It was love at first glow......

Shaun_300 Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 Love the new Denali HD's Kyle, that's a sweet looking truck! Always love putting the hammer down on those new '11 D-max's and feeling that 765lb ft of torque. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebeilgard Posted September 28, 2011 Report Share Posted September 28, 2011 i have an '06 duramax similar to kyles, but with 165,000 on it. plenty of power and 20 mpg is standard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted September 29, 2011 Report Share Posted September 29, 2011 I love with my 95 K1500 Silverado. Just about 180,000 miles on it. Burns a little oil, but it still has lots of ooomph for those uphill loaded hauls. But I am in danger of losing it...My 17 year old son has been using it often and now he calls it HIS truck. I gotta tell ya I can't blame him. It is a great truck that has NEVER failed me in snow sleet rain or very cold mornings when I was worried it wouldn't start. It has some rot on the rockers which is common for these trucks. But the body is solid. Like everyone else here. Would love a new one, but can't handle the payments at this point in time.
