I love my camaro but if I had to choose one. Sierra all the way

Well change that Silverado to a F250 and you're good.

That year still with the 5.9s are some of the best trucks they ever built. My wife drives one that also serves as the tow pig. I have a Silverado as another toy, but I still haul stuff in it occasionally. Not having a truck is a PITA. If I had to choose between a truck and the Camaro, I would definitely have a truck.

I just loan them the flatbed trailer and tell them to bring it back when they are done.

Mustangs, Camaros, Challengers. The only thing they should be hauling is ass.

Truck 1st, Camaro 2nd. If I could only have one, it would be my Truck. Too many practical reasons to list as to why.

It's going to suck if I find a good enough deal cause I enjoy the Camaro. My day to day life is needing a truck more and more..especially more than 2 1/2 years ago. It's also going to suck cause I'll have to demod...so I'm hoping nothing goes wrong when doing that. I'm not too worried about returning back to stock, but the headers bother me. I just know they'll give me crap about trading a modded car in.

Had the Camaro for a little over a year now (which is about par for the course with me). Had trucks always before this and I've been really remembering why I always had one. Pretty sure the Camaro is going away soon and back to a truck.

God I'm going to miss it. Can't have both. Wife already has an Odyssey and I can't afford to keep all of them (yet).

My wife loves driving a truck / SUV. We have always had one because of that, and I have had the sports car. It has worked out great. As far as the 2014 and 2015 Silverados, they are amazing. We test drove one but could not quite stomach the payment, and ended up with a 2013 Avalanche instead, which we both love. Having both has worked out great for us!

A buddy of mine just bought a loaded 2015 Silverado. It rides like a Cadillac and some of the options are fantastic. The interior is gorgeous. Chevy really makes a nice truck. I think his stickered at about 60k though..

I bet it did! The one we test drove last year was in the $50K range. The rear seat was so roomy. I really loved that truck, but that payment on top of the (at that time) 1 year old 1LE was just more than we could do at the time. We got her Avalanche used with fairly low miles, and as I mention, we love it, but everytime I see a new Silverado, I remember that test drive.
