Topic: GM's Chevy Silverado tops Consumer Reports' truck list

true... and an 08 will have rust over the back wheel wells... some dingbat thought they'd save money by removing the wheel well liners for a few years up until 08.

anywho, yeah, the loaded ride of a truck is great... but unsprung it's just ready to bounce. hence the coil over springs on the ram getting good reviews by the air haulers out there... makes sense. not so jumpy.

The 2014 Tundra isn't out yet...so I'm guessing they used the 2013 model?

was at the Toyota dealership a couple weeks ago, they told me they had a 2014 on the way.
I would imagine Consumer Reports got one for this test?

on the way can be dealer speak for "we talked about what one to order"....

unless it's shipped, it's still a month away.

so my guess is a 2013 for the test.

^^^
the sales guy did say "sometime next week"
maybe it's just because i was looking at the 2013 in the showroom while waiting for service.

he asked me how i like the Matrix.
I'll give him credit for not jumping on me like a wolf when my reply was that i hated it and can't wait to change.
