You are to be corrected. The economy has never been better or stronger. The stock market has never been higher. There are problems to be sure, but it is not in the economy.
'Nuff said.

Step bars and extras by dwyerchevy07

I have the Extang toneau cover that I like, I did buy the GM 3 inch step bars, 450.00, 2 pair of the molded mud guards and look nice for 50.00 a pair. I too am going to do Line X but in Lansing, MI is about 490.00. Bug deflector chrome 145.00, side window rain vents for 82.00. All GM parts, and if I am not mistaken would be covered under your bumper to bumper warranty. Please do not quote me on that, but if all done at dealership before you bought should be. Best of luck!

I will receive my 08 Silverado Crew next week, and it will be outfitted with the following:
 
 - Bedlocker Electric Tonneau Top w/ Explorer Rails
 - 4" Oval GM Chrome Steps
 - Line-X Bedliner
 - Cargo Management Toolbox & Divider
 
After extensive research, I opted for the Bedlocker (Pace Edwards) as is required the least modifications to the body, and looked good. It is very expensive, about $1,500.
 
The Chevy dealer will install the cover, and will have to remove the rear cargo management rail. I think for me, it will work well. Another buddy of mine has the same cover. It occupies about 11" of space at the back of the bed. Hope this helps.

Just got my 2007 Sierra 1500 on Saturday.
 
So far I am very pleased with the truck. I got the SLE1 but with the 5.3L AFM engine. After driving 3.5 hours home I averaged around 20 mpg on the highway. The AFM kicked in quite a bit and the average jumped to around 30 in certain conditions.
 
I like the new interior. The radio is more flat and open so that both driver and passenger can choose radio stations. The seats are very comfortable and didn't hurt to sit in for such a long drive.
 
I didn't like the fact that there was no "seek" funnction on the sttering wheel radio controls, just a favorites control.
 
Overall pleased and I want to thank everyone on here as your reviews and helpfull hints and tips helped me in this purchase!

Seek controls by lionclawz

I have a LTZ x/cab '07 Silverado and it has the favorites forward and back buttons, but it also has a seek button but it only goes forward. these are located on the steering wheel. he Seek button is right below the mute/Onstar function button nestled in the music favorite buttons on the right hand cluster.

I am looking to buy either an 07 or 08 silverado in the next month or so. i have never owned a chevrolet, so this would be my first one. I love the interior. I wonder about the gas mileage. I know its not going to get 25 but is there anybody getting around 20? Also do you think I can get just as good a deal on an 08 as an 07? I am looking at getting crew cab ltz 4wd

Re: Still more problems 2007 Sierra Denali INFERIOR VEHICLE [skytop1] by 2007denali

I own a 2007 GMC Sierra Denali AWD (not classic) that now has 1,650 miles on it. I previously owned a 2004 Chevy Silverado LS ExtCab 2WD.
 
I have driven every vehicle that any typical rental car company rents (40+ different makes, models, vehicle types) in addition to family owned vehicles which include Cadillac DTS, Lexus LS430 & LX470, Mercedes E350, Jaguar XJ & X-type. I can tell you, I wouldn't trade my Denali for any of them.
 
Aside from an occasional slight fraction of a second delay in acceleration, I've experienced no problems and have been absolutely delighted with the all new 2007 GMC Sierra Denali.
 
I would chalk up skytop1's problems to his vehicle being a true "lemon." It is truly unfortunate to hear about all of his problems from what should have been an exceedingly enjoyable truck experience.

Hey Mike-
 
Sorry for the late reply. Was out of town for a bit. Hopefully this is what you're looking for. FYI there are over 500 TSBs related to the 2004 Silverado. Took awhile to look through them.

thx Dean.............at least now my buddy can go in armed with something that may get the job done......
 
hey, have you noticed the silly Bowtie at both ends of the new GMT-900's..............not sure why Chevy put the Bowtie on the tailgate, unless they are trying to copy Ford.
in the previous years i could understand it as the metal around the TG latch had distortions..........i already took mine off, and there are no distortions in the metal around the latch....hmmmmmm
