Per the bold sentence, that would be me. But I’ve definitely got some scratches in the bed, even though I have a thick Chevy bed mat. Hauled several loads of fence material including many bags of concrete right up to the load weight limit.
I choose to drive my 1500 Silverado Crew Cab Z71 with a 5.3 V-8 just like all of those people with Tahoes, Suburbans, Yukons, Expeditions, Grand Wagoneers, Armadas, Escalades, QX80s, and Navigators. Of course, with my gas at $2.28 a gallon right now, I’m not exactly crying in my cereal. LOL.
