Favorite feature: |
It is not as high as most full size trucks and I do like the styling |
Least favorite feature: |
The far too many automatic 'features' that do not permit driver control, for example the automatic lighting system and the oil change warning which must be turned off by the dealer |
Advice to buyer: |
Rent one for a month before you buy, if you can live with the gimmicks and gadgets, fine |
Detailed review: |
An apparently well built vehicle. However it is rather large and ungainly to drive. Basically a gas guzzler with a lot of gimmicks and gizmos. Who needs running lights, an outside temperature, compass, air bag indicating mirror? At least there should be an option to disable the running lights. I found extra cap screws that someone had disposed of in the fuse box. Icing on the cake was for the battery to fail and leave the vehicle dead after I had driven it for six miles. GM towed it back to the dealer and replaced the battery at no cost and the dealer even sent someone to pick me up to retrieve the truck. Must now return the vehicle for service because it will not idle at less than 1000rpm. Would I recommend or buy again? No, this is not the truck for me! |
