I think the 99-02s chevys looked good with both bed styles. The 03'+ chevys look better w/ the fleetside bed in my opinion because of the squarish front end. The 99-05 GMCs look good with both beds. Just my 2¢s.

This is true too! If I had a 03+ chevy, it would be a fleetside.

stepside

300lbs more is probably pushing it a little. i would guess about 100lbs or less
