People may tend to steer you toward one brand or another, but honestly all the trucks out there right now are pretty good. Good luck in your purchase  |
I've got an 04 Silverado Crew Cab, 2wd, 5.3l with 373 gears and an economy tune. I get about 15 in town, 18 on the highway, and as much as 20 if you can keep the speed down to 60 mph (tried this once on a leisurely trip).
