The braking system on the Silverado is supposed to be improved for better feel. The rear drums was probably a cost-saving move. Not a good move, in my opinion.
I've also heard that braking distances have been significantly decreased for '05, but by implementing drum brakes???? GM made a big deal about offering 4 wheel discs as standard when the '99 Silverado arrived. I can't believe they would go back to drums to save a few bucks (actually, I can believe that). But, it still seems a bit odd.
