2004 silverado king cab - spent it's life pulling:
(2) different cargo trailers loaded with equipment near or beyond limits
22ft boat I/O 220 merc stern drive, truck bed always loaded with 6 scuab tanks and bags of gear
25ft Nash TT
multiple loads of gravel, dirt, etc through the years
wife only knows one way to drive...stop..and go-fast
233,00 miles when I traded it in..at that point..not burning, nor leaking oil, tranny solid..
I'm religious about oil/fluid changes...water pump at 150k..it was even easy on tires and brakes.
couldn't be more happy with what I got from that truck..shoulda kept it as a local round town runner...
