  1. When my Wife's brand new Grand Cherokee blew a rod and toasted it's motor we owned it two whole days. The dealer could not warranty the engine either until the regional rep got the where's, why's and how's of the failure. We were out of town travelling at the time of the breakdown, the whole ordeal was a real pain. Took nearly three weeks to get our Jeep back.
  2. I'm probably beating a dead horse here but......where is the build and price for the Silverado? And why is the B&P for the Sierra only 1/2 there? Seriously, these trucks are ON THE LOTS! The Chevrolet.com website still has some build and price for 2017 models!! they need to get with it! Rant over.......
  3. Tried a 19 Ram and it's a nice truck for sure. It's all new except the engine/trans which is identical #'s to my 2016. After sampling a 18 Denali with the 8 speed I doubt I could ever be happy with the current hemi. Also the Ram doesn't do anything for me style wise, its even hard to tell its an all new truck from the rear/sides. My 2016 outdoorsman with color matched bumpers/grill has a more aggressive look. The new ones are just so bland to me, the front styling just lost that certain pizazz that Rams have. I tried a new F150 last week too. That was one impressive truck (much moreso than the 19 Ram) the turbo V6 is a rocket. Too bad my past experience with Ford still has a bad taste in my mouth (had a self destructing 5.4 in my 2007 F150) and the body panes are noticeably wavy witch would bug my OCD till no end. I keep my trucks 8-10 years and typically put on 20k per year so reliability is a big deal for me. New Chevy checks most of my boxes (will know more after sampling one) and its the first GM truck to interest me in a long time. In the end It's safe to say they ALL build great trucks these days! Competition is great for consumers.
  4. I'm new here and will be new to GM trucks. I currently own a 2016 Ram and wish to replace it within the next few months. I'll be getting me a new Silverado as it seems to offer more of what I want in a truck. The new Ram just doesn't do anything for me considering its rather drab styling and carryover engines (my Ram certainly hasn't been overly dependable either) It does have an awful nice interior in the higher trims though, in all honesty FCA electronics are iffy and a huge display screen does not make the truck any more functional imo. I'd like a 6.2/10a combo for sure, but that inline diesel is also interesting. Sucks that they probably won't have them till spring. Also, is it possible to see some incentives come late fall early winter? Crystal ball I know but nothings worse than buying a truck only to see 10K off two months later! I know my local Ram dealer is already discounting his 19's as sales haven't been all that great at MSRP. Can't wait to drive one of these trucks. My local dealer expects a few by months end so I'll be ready to try and possibly buy!
