Not bad at all. GMC front end still looks better though.

They usually do. I don't like the 2 part headlights on the Chevy. The auto industries fascination with chrome is baffling to me. People clearly like the painted to match parts way better.

Neither of those look too chromed to me, but the 2012 and 2013 silverados do with the chrome bumper ends and lightly painted insert.

I do agree with you.

HDs don't look as bad, but still too much.

I think they should go back and update the 02-07 Sierra and go with that.

Those looked wayyy better than the 07+ models

And every automaker is overdoing it.

Well, chrome and unpainted plastic. Except that the chrome doesn't get sun damaged like the plastic does.

Not sure what this means... Hopefully it means you agree with me.

Have not heard of the oil issue, though...


My dad's 08 was going through about a quart a week. He brought it to the dealer several times and he eventually attributed it to being a lemon. He since bought a 2012 crew cab and hasn't had an issue at all.

The demographic of people who buy new full size trucks is made up mostly of older men who like the chrome.
