Review

I have 4000 miles on the truck, I get 14.4 MPG, haul a 250 gallon water tank in the back and don't even know its there when completely full. The suspension is tight but gives a decent ride. I use the 4WD when going up a steep bumpy dirt road to my cabin in the Black Hills, even with the 250 gallon tank in the back it handles with no problem. The interior has multiple small storage compartments. Even my wife loves the comfort of the interior. Overall I am very pleased with the Truck.

Favorite Features

Great looks, comfortable ride. Power folding side mirrors helps me get the beast into my tight garage. XM radio, with phone service and turn by turn navigation are awesome.

Suggested Improvements

Under the seat storage compartments in the rear cab

Review

I pull horse trailers for a living and I have several trucks in my fleet. This year I thought I'd try something new and I made a huge mistake. My Dodge's all handle better than these have more power. Even my 1500 HEMI can pull a bigger trailer than this waste of space. I couldn't believe how slow this truck was going over the coastal range. And when we took it out on the beach I had to get pulled out (by a dodge) I'm never dealing with chevy again.

Review

I already own an 03 2500 hd with the 6.0. It has been trouble free for 106,000 miles. Bought an 05 F-250 Powerstroke and had nothing but problems and happy to say I have traded for the 09 2500 Z71. The truck is tight in its handling. My 03 has 4:10 gears and pulls like a mule. I opted for 3:73 rear end on this one for better fuel mileage. The suspension is tight yet not jarring like my f-250 though both are 4x4's. The back seat could be a little roomier as I have two children in car seats, and with front seat at furthest position the car seats are cramped. It is very quiet whether on black top or concrete and the head room is ample for me as I am 6'4".

Favorite Features

The ride of the Chevrolet

Suggested Improvements

Beefier tires and rims on the z-71. Door handles don't allow for driver to ride with left led bent upward.
