What about Chevy Trucks?

I know this is a Ford truck forum, but nevertheless, I was wondering if you or anyone you know has a Chevy truck or SUV? Does it look cool?

Me personally, I have a cousin that owns a 2010 Chevrolet Suburban LTZ. It's a pretty cool vehicle with decent luxury features.




Discuss Chevy trucks, vans and SUVs here.

I know. But it's because I wanted to see if anyone you know has a Chevy Truck or SUV. Like I said, my cousin has a Chevy Suburban. It's pretty a good car.

What you might find here is if someone has a Chev, and needs help, they will get it. There might even be some support if some guy posts he just found a clean, rust free, low-mile 4x4 whatever in a barn. Heck, guys have even gotten help on Toyotas on this site.

But generally, the enthusiasm here is for Ford Trucks.

Also...and this is just a friendly suggestion...you might get more replies if your location didn't read "None of your business". We're generally a pretty friendly bunch here. If you don't want anyone to know, just leave it blank

Thanks. I just don't want anyone to know where I live.

Chevy Truck's are nice. There suv's (nowaday's) are way better than the fords IMO. I just prefer ford truck's more!

gzilla >> Back up think and restart. If you were in a Chevy forum and ask to talk about Fords, you would get the same response. I think maybe you have others motives. Welcome to FTE. I look forward to having you around

I spent some time behind the wheel of my BIL's Sub a few years ago. Must say that baby drove like a dream.

I think it dropped a valve last year, so the dream is kinda over for the BIL, but they are still running it with a new motor.

I used to say I'd trust a Ford dealer over any GM dealer, and I'm still somewhat inclined that way. But with the changes in dealership owners etc, and since I ventured into brand x territory, I have little use for any dealer at this point.

Regarding the above, there is actually some love for Fords there.... But really, is the OP on the Kia site asking about Hyundais? Or the Fisker site wondering about Teslas? How big a hobby is this?

Just wondering--heck, these things haven't gotten into a war--yet.
