I've heard of going retro. But that's pretty good. Looks just like an old truck. I'd never think it was a 2013 model.

One of my neighbours has one of those Harley trucks. Nice looking truck.

My fav truck is the ford f150 with the 300 6. You cannot break that motor. If I went new it would probably be either the raptor or the dodge with the laramie longhorn package. Looks so awesome inside and out but the 1500 starts at 43k in 2x4 lol. never going to happen and I have nothing to haul anyway.

anybody see the new toyota tundra that is lifted? wow that thing is a beast. makes my jeep looks tiny. the front grill is so intimidating when you look back in the rear view mirror and see it's riding behind you. i saw couple around the city and oh wow im real impress with the tundra. i like the ford raptor too that's so bad too. if i ever buy a pick up i want a 01-02 silverado 2500 HD regency and jack that up with 37" mt tires.

If they intend on selling this to the off road market, I would hope they did it right. And not just stuck a lift kit on the stock Tundra.

anyone remember the ole chevy LUV truck?

If you ask me....

Chevy has always been the truck of choice..regardless of what they called it...

Chevy trucks have always been the most reliable tough trucks on the road!

Chevy Toughness equals......Baseball, Apple Pie and Chevrolet...

No other Manufacturer can say that!

Chevrolets have been Manufacturer Champions for more years...Than any other Manufacturer.....in history....

Thats why "Chevrolet" doesnt have to play dress up with there Trucks!

Thats just my opinion....And My Belief....

See the U.S.A. in a Chevrolet!

As far as trucks are concerned Ford has had the best selling truck since the late seventies. When it comes to motorsports and championships, Chevy does the same thing as the New York Yankees. If you continue to throw money at something like it is never ending then results will follow. Chevy supports more teams and has more Chevy branded cars on the track than all the other manufacturers combined. With that much money spend it doesn't seem fair to the rest.
The other manufactures don't have an endless money pit so they use marketing and technology to boost sales.

And Chevy took the biggest bailout of the big 3 here recently.

Ford has its toughness. Mopar has the power. Chevy is the cheapest to work on and gets the best gas mileage. To each is own but all the companies have had thier ups and downs no one company is the best.

Oh and Chevy no longer has positrak axels so even if you get a 4x4 its 2 wheel drive its not advertised but its the truth. One front and one back tire is all that will spin. My Uncle has a 2010 and we found this out while hunting.
