Its because.............you guessed it.....................of their full sized light duty pickup and SUV segment, and lightly of their midsized pick ups. Sorry if this sounds like a broken CD, but you will find out when you sit in one and drive one. Not necessarily the top optioned Trail Boss or High Country. Sit in a regular Silverado or an RST. Look at its innovation of options, the passenger room, the road feel and handling (with any engine). Case closed. Aside from being a bit large and a tad thirsty, these vehicles are very capable of handling any transportation duty, and hauling anything. These vehicles even look good. It is no wonder that, in terms of sales, Pickups are where the action is, and GM with Ford are the industry leaders of the genre.

I don’t know that I’d say the trucks especially look good but they do what is intended of them in a top notch degree. I really don’t like the way any of GM’s current stuff is styled like inbred transformers but that is the auto Industry in general these days. I had a ‘22 Silverado 2500 HD and it was the best performing truck for truck stuff that I’ve ever owned or driven.
