Am looking at finally replacing my 1999 Chevy Silverado 1500 5.3L V8 Z71 4x4 after 170,000 miles. It's been a good truck, not too many problems over the years. I've always had Chevy's but not completely brand loyal. At home we have a Chevy, Ford, Toyota, Hyundai, and ('67 Plymouth!). Anyone have good or bad experience with the latest Chevy, Ford, or Dodge RAM 1500's? I was somewhat interested in the RAM 1500 3.0L Diesel which can get up to 28mpg highway but I put together a spreadsheet and with the extra $2850 purchase price and since diesel price is so much higher than gas in Minnesota, there is never a payoff unless you drive a lot of miles and/or tow a lot. So I will stick with gas.
