[QUOTE="grannysoo, post: 560283, member: 6980"] I have one and love it. 3500 / 1 ton series / dualie 4 door long wheel base, long bed. (And I do mean a LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG bed on it. You can lay plywood in the back and close the tailgate. Try parking this beast at Wal-Mart. :lol2: Runs good, drives great! Problems: # 3 fuel injector has went out twice. Found out that a hose above it had a pinhole leak that squirted water on the injector. Once that was fixed, problem solved. Replaced by the dealer @ no charge Instrument cluster went out. (ALL chevrolet trucks are having this problem) Replaced by the dealer @ no charge. Fuel mileage: I average 17 mpg city/road driving. City only - 14.5 / Road mileage 20 - 22 (depending on speed) Hauling mileage: 14.5 Been running a computer program on it for a week. Running on the interstate system at 75 - 85 mph - getting 22 miles per gallon. Running local highways - getting 25 miles per gallon. Running local highways at my normal 50 mph speed - 29 miles per gallon. City driving - 17 mpg. I'm probably going to buy one of these programs. I can pay for it in less than 2 months with the fuel savings. Would I buy another one like this? Yes. In a heartbeat. Do not however buy a new one. They have installed a new converter that is killing fuel mileage. New ones are getting 12 - 14 highway mpg. I would not be a happy camper with one of those...... [/QUOTE]
