Hey guys. I heard this comment again this weekend from an 80 yr old ND farmer and just wanted to get a feel from those of you who have owned both GMCs and Chevys in the past to see if you've had better experiences with one brand over the other. I'm considering an update from my current '02 Chev 2500HD and looking at 1500 Crew Cabs for better mileage and improved ride. Some questions:The only difference between Chevys and GMCs is that they use lock nuts on GMCs!
* Are the trucks actually identical (minus badges and trim packages)?
* Has one performed better or outlasted the other in your experience?
* Why are GMCs typically more expensive?
I have owned both in the past (along with Fords) and have come to my own conclusions - just wanted to see if others have had similar experiences.
Thanks!
