  • Shop Elsewhere. GM does not stand behind their products!

    Sep 07 '05
    Pros: This 2001 Chev pick-up seemed like a real peach when purchased.
    Cons: This 2001 Chev pick-up turned out to be a major LEMON. Of the worst type.

    Summary: I leased a new 01 4 wheel drive Silverado ext cab, short box with Z51 suspension and heavy duty trailering package. This truck was great for the first 20,000kms or so - great handling and power. However up until 80,000 kms ( approx 50,000 miles) the ... read more

    Mar 24 '04
    Pros: Awesome ride and the engine (when it starts) is an absolute beast!
    Cons: This Silverado has not aged well at all, far too many failures.

    Summary: I have been a GM kinda guy for over 20 years and have had a love-hate relationship with all of my GM products, and my 2000 Silverado is the ultimate in love-hate experiences! Driven like a car this thing rocks, it will chirp my 265/70R16 BFG A/Ts in ... read more

  • Silverado, decent truck

    Dec 16 '02
    Pros: A strong motor, and pretty fast
    Cons: weak springs, and weak frame

    Summary: I have driven them, but I am not impressed enough to own one. They are decent trucks, and they are better built than Ford, and with out a doubt better built than Dodge. They also seem to last longer than the old Chevys as far as the motor is concerned, ... read more

  • Nice lookin' and well ridin' !!

    Nov 06 '01
    Pros: Nice features, good acceleration, solid construction
    Cons: Lacks some of the features of the F-150 series

    Summary: I love my new 2001 Chevy truck. It rides extremely smoothly, has very good acceleration, and is very quiet. I had owned an F-150 for the last 1 1/2 years and found the Ford to be of inferior quality to the Chevrolet. The Ford was noisy, was ... read more

  • FIRST TIME TRUCK BUYER

    Jun 22 '01
    Pros: Safer, roomier and lots of options.
    Cons: Mediocre gas mileage, give up some options to make it affordable.

    Summary: Before I bought the 2001 Chevy Silverado (1500 extended cab, 5300/5.3 litre Vortec V8, shortbed), I'd only driven a truck once or twice. They all felt big and clunky and made me feel separated from the ground. Now, I know that this truck was the best ... read more

    Jun 02 '01
    Pros: Extended cab size. Awesome interior and exterior looks. Power.
    Cons: Wind noise at door seal (minor). Pricey, but all full-size trucks are.
