Re: Edmunds' Long Term 2007 Silverado 1500 Crew Cab

i sent a nasty email to edmunds on this article

first, they way overpay for a full size truck which they should have been able to buy cheaper.

then, they sell it when gas is 4 bucks. NO DUH. you're not gonna get anything. plus, they sell it in an area of the country where people pay less then they would in the midwest, etc.

then they rip the GM for losing a transmission but hold up the tundra as their favorite. the same tundra with crumpling tailgates, bed bounce, engine schrapnel, and massive cash on the hood (10k? and equally poor resale).

edmunds looks like a bunch of fools. i cannot fault them for making a point of a faulty tranny in the full size chevy, but to make it sound like the big fatal flaw.....cmon, get the new tranny and shut up. evaluate the whole truck on more than just a transmission. and to use the TURD as the gold standard? that alone exposes edmunds as the amateur operation they are.
