Just wanted to share my thoughts after owning my '18 Silverado Z71 for a little over 3 months now: 1. I love this truck. Compared to my old '04 Dodge 1500 this thing rides like a Cadillac. I honestly never thought a truck could ride this good. I know some people complain about the stock rancho shocks and z71 suspension but to me it seems to ride exceptionally well. One thing I have noticed though is quite a bit of body roll in corners, more so than in my old dodge, but that could be because of the light tires that come stock? 2. I'm impressed with how capable this truck is offroad. Now I know most people will say that the airdam is too low, not enough ground clearance, etc. but honestly for the vast majority of people I think this truck has all you need. It's gotten me to my campsites, taken me to some great hiking trails, and allowed me to scout my hunting areas for this fall. All the things that I thought it couldn't do stock since my old truck had 33's and a leveling kit. Of course, It's not going to take on any hardcore offroad trails in Moab but that's not the reason I bought the truck and even then I'm sure someone could mod it enough to take on any trail out there. 3. The technology in these new trucks is great! I know a lot of people talk about the AFM system being annoying or intrusive but honestly I never even feel it! It's crazy that all of these new advancements allow me to get an average of 17.5mpg which is incredible compared to my old truck's 11mpg average. Apple CarPlay and bluetooth have also been great to have so far! It's nice being able to make phone calls hands-free, play a song using my steering wheel controls, and send texts by voice. Overall I am just impressed with this generation of Silverado trucks. I have owned 2 chevy trucks before, a 1984 C10 and a 93 s10 and dang it feels good to be behind a bowtie again. Just wanted to share my love of Chevrolet and my truck with you guys and I hope y'all are out there enjoying your trucks as much as I am! I'd love to hear your experiences and thoughts as owners!
