Just bought a used 2008 GMC Crewcab 2500 Duramax. Used it for the first time yesterday. All I can say about the truck is WOW! Unbelievable in every aspect. Pulled my 6000lb boat like it wasn't there. Always have owned GM's and after selling my 04 Crew 1/2 ton Silverado with the 5.3 decided to get this truck. Very impressed with the Duramax and the truck over all.
This is a great forum with lots of knowlegde on here to take in. Looking at dressing the outside up a bit. Any suggestions?

Thanks and again, great forum.

Yeah, I just got my new 2009 Crew Cab Duramax and I am amazed. So much power and it runs so quiet. I have a 32' 5th wheel trailer on order and can't wait to see how she pulls.

To be as fair as possible, I tried out all three big trucks, even though I am a Chevy guy. All I can say is that driving the Ford made up my mind for me, Chevy all the way!

Duramax/Allison make a great combo! Yeah!

All the Chevy/GMC needs to be the best looking truck is bigger wheels and tires. It has the best of everything else (engine/trans). I have never been happier with mine and I came from the new Toyota Tundra with the 5.7 and I actually loved that truck. Wanted a Diesel again and drove the Dodge/Ford. Almost bought a Dodge but it was too much work to get the emission stuff right and the Ford was a dog (power wise). Didn't like the look of the Chevy until I put bigger wheels and tires on. I am so happy with my truck now. I like it better than the Toyota (nice interior). The power is really out of this world.:D
