Default 07+ Owners

Went and looked Friday, looking at getting a new Sierra when my Blazer's warrranty runs out, so most likley around winter. I looked at new 08s, ideally would like to find a left over 08 in 09. I want a Z-71 extended cab, saw they sold them in 2wd. I was really impressed by the interior, looked a lot nicer then the older generation. Also the fuel economy is about the exact same as the Blazer I drive now. How do you like your truck over all?

Have an 08 quad cab 4x4. Most comfortable truck I have ever owned. Also best riding. Even with the lift and upgraded tires and wheels it still rides nice. Z71 package is a 4wd only package unless a dealer threw on a sticker. Which they can do and is gay.

I have a RCSB with just a couple of mods, and I absolutely love it. Rides great, handles good, and the MPG is great at 21-22 hwy.
