Yea I suppose whenever looking up reliability the more vocal ones are the ones with issues. I can do alot of maintenance and replace most simple wear and tear parts myself(usually on my 06 silverado) but I'm also not a mechanic by any means either.

I would love 4wd but iv read up that it tends to fail quite ofthen. Do you have any experience with it ?

Hello all, Within a couple of months I'm looking to buy a either. 2012/2013 silverado or a 2018 silverado but cannot decided which one would be best. They will both be 2wd 6speed auto (iv heard to many bad things about the 8speed from the newer models) 5.3 engine Will be used for light towing and some trail running (nothing to crazy which is why I figured the 4wd wouldn't be worth it in my case). I feel like the earlier version of the truck are more reliable but I also really enjoy the comfort features/tech of the newer truck. Any advice or thoughts on the 2018 model vs the 2012/2013. Thanks to everyone in advance ?
