“I have driven 4 2500HD Silverado’s 250,000 plus without a single repair other than brakes and tires..., working on 2 more right now, one has 70k the other is new.”

We’re on our second Chevrolet Avalanche (really just a Surburban with a different back half). The first one, a 2003, went nearly 200,000 miles including pulling and Airstream trailer for us. When we advetised it for sale, we immediately had a half dozen offers and people bid on it to get it. Bought the new 2013 last fall simply because the model was going out of production and we like the configuration. The common thread between all the Chevrolets and GMCs is the Chevrolet LS engine. It is simply bulletproof! The GM automatic transmission is a good piece too.I guess it’s also possible that the 2500’s are running the Duramax diesel, which is also bulletproof. The only time the 2003 had to go in for service was for a 4WD shift encoder at about 130,000 miles.
