About To Get One

[canadian_bacon]

Hello,

New to the forums, new to the truck world.

About to get one as my daily driver, nothing to haul (yet), I am looking at both Silverado and Sierra 1500 2W.

I want the 4.8l (heard that the iron cast is easier on gas then AL), extended cab, short bed.

For my driving, mostly highway, what gear ratio should I get? Nothing fancy, no leather, just AC, DIC, lock. diff. and sunroof.

Remember, I am looking at gas and not to haul... I know, but I want something big because I have seen and heard way too much on the Canadian highways.

What would be the main difference between the two of them? Or it is simply a question of taste? I tend to like more the front end on the Sierra.

I looked at Dodge and Ford, but got disappointed very quickly, especially with the F150.

 

Is one of them any better? nicer built? more reliable? better in any areas?

 

Thanks in advance.
