I dont think that the LTZ would be worth it... too dressy to get messy... after all (im assuming) its gonna be a work truck

The Chevy 5.3 cant be beat...

end of story

(though Id rather buy a used Escalade ESV, bigger motor, more towing cap. around 20K plus when your driving it every day its awfully comfortable... oh wait... I did)

ROFL!!! You are a jokester!

I cant believe you went chevy. I by no means am a brand *****. I would buy a kia if i liked it. But you just gave money to Obomarolet and bought an inferior product with the Silverado.

Now the Tahoe I can agree on is very nice.

Nicely done... my dad is a subcontractor... and by that, I mean he is the guy that goes to labor ready and picks up the mexicans that swing hammers for him...


Sorry but if you cant back up what your saying with actual facts and not heresay I think your post is just gonna be overlooked.......Done!

BTW... Ford took money from the government too, but IIRC if you add together what ford and chevy got, it wasnt even half of what chrysler needed!

I am the GC that hires those guys
The Traverse may be an option too based on value...because my Ml can tow just about anything I would ever need

I need actual facts to make a point? No cause you're statment about the 5.3 shows no facts either other than you dont know much about other engines.

as far as the bailout crap. Im not gonna get into my political opinions. But yes they did but they did it the right way in my book.

Yea and it needs that to get the good gas mileage on the highway. If it didnt have that it would be below the Fords motors easy. But Ford is coming out with engines that blow away the competition.

It may not tow more but i didnt think you were towing. But overall Ford quality is better and the F150 looks better too. But I would go with the 5.0 or the 3.5L ecoboost!
