I can talk you out of it. (and im a lifetime GM fan).

I purchased a 2014 gmc sierra, V8. SLE. I have had spark plug wires fall off, I have had 4 bolts shear off that connect the exhaust manifold to the head, ( this required the head to be taken of and sent out to be drilled and tapped) and the a/c condenser just went out. i have 65k miles on it right now. I may have well bought a Dodge and put a Mercury on my boat for the amount of trouble this thing is giving me. They even didnt want to warranty the bolts breaking off in the head, it took some "convincing" for them to warranty it.

Damn. I feel like I hear more stories like that from GM guys than Ford.

Why can't one manufacturer just get it all right?

I had a 2010 Sierra that I only kept for 36,000 because I had the dash replaced, door handles, tail lights, ac blower motor, tranny fill tube, and developed a knock due to a lifter loosing oil pressure. Frick gm products.
