I used to own a Chevy, it was the only reliable car I had until I bought the tC.

The only other two cars I've owned sucked, a Saturn w/e, and an 89 535i. The 535i was fast but it sure as hell was to expensive to keep together.

Anyone stupid enough to put chevy and toyota in the same class should be castrated, skinned, and thrown in shark infested waters. As a toyota owner I find that toyotally insulting.

Chevy may not be in the same class as Toyota, but they obviously have something going for them, as per the above.

Sorry I'll stick with Consumer Reports rankings!

FULL-SIZED PICKUP TRUCKS

1st Honda Ridgeline RTS $30,590
2nd Toyota Tundra SR5 (4.7) $33,457
3rd Chevrolet Avalanche 1500 $43,590
4th Ford F-150 XLT (5.4) $35,940
5th Nissan Titan SE (5.6) $36,370
6th Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Z71 (5.3) $32,830
7th GMC Sierra 1500 SLT (5.3) $39,500
8th Dodge Ram 1500 SLT (5.7) $36,015
9th Dodge Ram 1500 SLT (4.7) $33,995

These rankings are based on performance not pesonal preference.

Vincentric’s must have really liked the pre-school playing block style controls on the dash. Chevy must design them based on the average IQ level of their customers.
