Ive had 3 Toyota Pickups, a 91, 93, and 95, all king cab all 4wd, all manual transmission 5 speed trucks. They were great and loved them, but I spent a lot of money on them, injector failure on 1, complete front diff rebuild on the other, and the 3rd was really rusty in the bed and tailgate even though it was a florida truck all it's life. I'd have another one too..I've had Dodge Rams, junk, F150s and an F350, decent trucks, but by far and away, the 1999 to 2002 Chevrolet Silverado has been the most dependable, least maintence vehicles I've ever had. My first was a 1999 ext cab Z71, 5.3, 475k miles when I sold it. Never opened the engine for anything, only oil leak was a bad oil pressure sensor. Bought a used 2002 ext cab silverado with the 4.8 V8, 2wd, had 318k miles when I got it on the cheap...Drove it all over the country, had to replace the starter once that's it, sold it with 480k miles for the same price I bought it for..my 2001 Z71 was exactly like the 1999, had 30k when I got it, sold it with 200k and never had to do crap but brake pads and normal maintenance. I currently have a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali, 6.2 V8, 10 speed, bought it new and it now has 171k miles on it, never had an issue, still looks and droves like a new truck. I change the oil every 5k miles, do all the maintence, and these things have never let me down. I'm a die hard Chevy man for life now.
