Something about the symonyms to "dodge" make one leary. LOL

I have a Silverado 1500, and while Scotty says they won't haul weight and are underpowered.. my truck would give him a run on that statement. I've also heard the 4L60 is weak and yet this particular one has done more than it's share. All in all, I'd prefer a 3/4 ton...no doubt. Don't really need more than the 5.3L gas, and yet..that duramax is one sexy motor.
