I currently drive a 2003 Silverado, single cab, I pretty much fell into a deal on it after a pretty bad car accident. I'm never driving a car again, I've ridden in plenty of cars and SUVs, I even fit in a Prius with a couple buddies once. Not driving them though. I'd like to have an SUV and truck, but I can't afford that. I've been awed by the 22R motors in 1989 and older Toyota pickups and the 4Runners, but not that thrilled with the V6 I've seen. The V8s in the Silverados have been pretty good, knock on wood. My truck has the small 4.8 V8. I'm a big dude, 6'3" and 365LBs, and I tend to like my room. I get by fine in the 03, but I'm looking at extended or crew cabs.
I've read about quite a few problems in the newer Silverados, and of course Toyota had the recalls on the frames on the Tundra trucks several years ago.
I just like trucks. I don't use mine for work. Hauled my little brothers gun cabinet and table saw to his house just recently. That's probably the most use the bed has seen since I hauled a load of firewood a couple years ago.
What is your suggestion?
