2014 - 2018 Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra

[Hdwrguy]

Hello fellow GM truck owners.  I bought my 2014 Silverado crew cab Z71 brand new and still own it over twelve years later.

 

This is just a quick survey for anyone who owns one of these trucks to see who plans on realistically keeping it until it literally fails or dies.  Or is there a desire to look at the fifth gen Silverado/Sierra?

 

Let me know in the comments.

 

Thanx guys...

I have a 2016 that I bought new and still own. I'm around 129,000 miles now. The biggest problem was a transmission failure about 2 years ago around 95000 miles. No warning, just failed while driving down a back road. A reman GM transmission installed and it's been fine ever since. A few other minor problems along the way. I am in no hurry to replace it. It's been paid off long ago and do plan on driving this as long as I can.

 

I will admit I am leery about all the additional electronics in the newer models and feel that it is just more potential problems. I think there's actually more than I would have wanted in this 2016 but so far so good. I think even if something major like lifter failure happened, it would still be cheaper to at worst, drop a new engine in than buy a new vehicle.
