  Chevys Rule - 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
  By Lauren - October 25 - 9:26 am

  I have put the Banks powerpak and the exaust system on this truck, and it is unbeleivable. The Allison transmission is great and has saved my life many times by stopping my 9 horse rig. Awesome truck!

  We love our truck! We pull a 4 horse trailer everywhere with it and really dont even feel it back there, even fully loaded. It is solid, runs great, and looks good going down the road.

  Engine warranty - 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
  By mike - October 31 - 12:33 pm

  This is a work truck and a daily driver. I tow a 7500 lb trailer 300-700 miles per week and it does the job. Mileage: 10 mpg w/ the trailer, 15-17 mpg w/out. Dealer performed all service Duramax diesel head gasket failed at 118k miles. Even after months of negotiations GM REFUSED to honor the Warranty! The repair cost $7500 out of pocket! I CANNOT recommend GM to anyone EVER again!

  Unreliable engine/transmission - 2005 Chevrolet Silverado 3500
  By Lloyd S. - August 9 - 8:23 am

  Personal and business use. Duramax Diesel. Uncontrollable rpms while towing. Truck shut down to a crawl at freeway speed. Had to be towed to dealer. 7 days later, truck was repaired. Final analysis was a wiring harness failure. Has happened several time to date and will be seeking counsel to rescind my contract for a vehicle that I cannot depend on.
