I have always been a Chevy man.. Till i bought me the Dodge 2500 with the cummings... Now im hooked. I still like the Chevy, but its hard to beat that cummings.

In all reality... All 3 trucks are some great trucks. (made in the USA)

I sell or have sold and worked on all three. It's all a matter of opinion. But I fell right now over all the Chevy puts out the better of the three.

When i went to school at UTI I specialized in Ford products, simply for Job security.

Fix
Or
Repair
Daily

That acronym hold true.

Chevy is a Beast

After I got tired of working on crap(ford) I went to work at a Chevy dealership, and found out that they dont break as much, but they do have their own problems.

Then I got tired of working on personal cars (because people in general are gross, leaving dirty diapers under the seats and body odor soaked into the interior) so i quit doing it all together.

I will not support .Gov Motors

i mean look at GM's cars, equinox, cobalt, malibu? gimme a break

then they wonder why honda and toyota stomp them in the dirt.....

Now I will say the chevy gas engines are the best, had a LT1 5.7 and a Vortec 5.7, awesome engines but after putting 3 trannys in the Z71 I'm done with them.

I would not support them now that obama has his fingers in the cake. But then again i would not pay full price for any new truck.

Always had a Chevy, will always have a Chevy. I had a 97 extended cab with a 350 and ran that thing ragged but it never quit on me until it had a foot of water over the dashboard for Rita. Then I had a 98 Z71 Tahoe on 35's that only had 2 speeds...stopped and wide open. I only had to change the tranny due to trying to power brake it on the roads and having fun in my crawfish ponds when my 4wheeler was broken. Now I have an 07 Z71 and couldn't ask for anything better...except for a diesel...

I have a '99 Ford F-250 with the intercooled 7.3L diesel.
It is the best truck I have ever owned. Had it 11 years now.
I owned a '92 Dodge 3/4 ton with the Cummins diesel and it was second best. Had it 4 years. But it was way too loud and had too much vibration. This one got the best milage of any truck I ever had. 22 in town, 25 on the highway and 17 pulling a 20 ft. loaded cow trailer.
I have never kept any of the others that long, 3 years at the most.
I have had a very crappy '81 GMC 1/2 ton, an '85 F-350 with a 460 ci engine, an '88 GMC 3/4 ton with a 350(this one was pretty dang good for a gas engine) and '96 Chevy 3/4 ton with a Vortec engine(LEMON, if'n I wasn't dating the Chevy warranty clerk, I would have been screwed on this one). I traded it on the one I have as soon as the warranty went out. I had a new transmission, new rear end, 4 air conditioners, new drivers seat, new drivers side door handle on the inside broke, all within 3 years. I had to Bo Duke it for a couple days with the broke door handle.
