The OP has a 2001 Silverado, which is on the GMT800 platform, which is is why I said let’s talk about it. I was hoping he had a unicorn…lol

I Wish it Had a LS Probably Would’ve Got Better Fuel Economy! But She’d Pull A House

I love my 99 Silverado 1500, I'll love it more when I eventually upgrade from the 4.3 V6 to a 5.3 LS. Planning to keep the 5 speed though.

LOL!

Mine's a Duramax, but that's my criteria too!
