Default Went to the darkside...

So after 4 flawless years of ownership with 47k miles and no issues on my 2013, I have decided to move into a GM. For 4 years I regretted not getting a Lariat for the creature comforts and for not getting 4wd for our Midwest winters. Well, I made sure not to make the same mistake this go around. Can't go any higher than a Denali

The interior on these GM trucks is amazing. Lightyears ahead of the previous generation. The only real sacrifice I gave up leaving my f-150 is back seat space. I still love the Fords but I just could not bring myself to buy an aluminum body.

Oh, and the 6.2 and 8 spd is amazing.

I've been a Chevy/GM guy for the last 20 years, I still prefer their powertrains. When the time came and I needed a truck I could not get over how goofy the square wheel openings look, especially with a round tire inside it. Part of the reason I like 67-68 Camaro's but don't care for 69's as much... the wheel openings. I bought my 2011 F150, and liked it enough to get another one when I needed a bigger cab. I also love the console shifter, I cannot stand that stupid dial on the Rams and the column shift crap of the GMs.

Other than those wheel openings, that's a gorgeous truck!

Agreed. One thing GM sure knows how to do is build a great small block.
