Just wanted some opinions on how this vehicle would do in the desert ? Any previous owners who can comment ?
Why would somebody even think of buying an American Car ??? when the Americans themselves are buying the Japanese Cars !!!
It is a nice looking car per se’, but have you seen the bumpers front & rear ??? I guess we are all capable of imagining what will happen to them after a desert drive!!!
The engine is a 5.3L Vortec…very powerful…but as in all Chevrolet / GMCs suspect on reliability…
If you are really contemplating a double cabin pick up…why not a Tundra or a Titan???
Check the RTA rules as well on the pickups…as there used to be a rule prohibiting expatriates from registering Pickups on individual name.
The problem of Tundra or Titan is that they are full time V8 which will not be very fuel efficent. The 5.3L V8 runs on V4 most of the time and when needed turns to V8. so it will be more fuel efficent. I was thinking of getting the Z71 offroad package. i thought the trucks like Ford F150 or Avalanche was considered as passenger vehicles.
if not Avalanche then my only option is to get a used Nissan patrol. only problem is i have been trying to search for one in classifieds since one week and not one car is on sale. imagine that !!!
