Are you guys as disappointed with 07 and up chevy trucks as i am?

If they would build a GMT400 like truck with an LS drive train, manual transmission option, and start using a 6.7 cummins instead of a Duramax in diesel trucks, they would have the best truck around. But if you build a truck too good, people have no incentive to buy another. That is probaly why you see more and more digital componets on newer trucks. When all that stuff breaks, it will be too expensive to fix, so you will be forced to buy another.

I am not a fan of 07-13 1500 with the active fuel management in fact I would run from them. They almost always end up breaking lifters, oil pressure issues, oil burning, ect, ect. Now that era in the 2500 or with a 6.0 (which doesn't have AFM) I kind of like them but not a big fan of that body style.. Now the 14 and up, and I really like the 16 and up body. So far the 14 and ups are performing really good. Knock on wood.

The 07+ trucks can be a good truck but they are more of a gamble. They definitely have more little cheap trim parts that fail. I have a few friends that drive them around with 110k+ miles reliably but have broken dashes, no working door lock actuators, broken door handles and such. I had never seen many ls engine problems until they added all the dod, afm and variable cam timing. I would take a 2011 over a 91 any day though. I think that is like comparing apples to oranges.
