When all four windows are down in my new model 2007 Silverado, the noise is also bad at fwy. speeds. This is common in all 4 door pickups that I've been in. I think a harmonic pressure pulse is set up inside the cab. However, when I slide the rear window open (I have the optional rear slider), the noise is cut a noticeable amount to the point where it is quite bearable. This was an unexpected but appreciated benefit of ordering the slider. If you can, get a rear window that opens.

After some internet research I have narrowed my choice of new 2007 crew cab to either a Tundra or a Silverado. Has anyone had experience with either?

If the tundra had rear sliding doors I would consider it. Other than that it is an unproven product and I'd rather gamble at vegas rather than gamble with a first run production. I'd go with the Silverado.

I've had my 2500 HD CC 4x4 duramax for a couple of months and also pull my 5,000 lb cargo trailer. I've been averaging around 13 MPG highway/town. I here others on here with much better MPG reports but haven't seen it in mine. I'm sure it makes a difference of how each person drives? Can't beat the performance and power though no matter what the mileage.

1. Does a 1500 limited slip rear end require an additive when changing out?
2. Is it ok to run dextron III in the 4 wheel drive transfer case?

Since we have to guess as to what year your truck is (and yes it makes a difference) have you tried reading your owners manual for that info?

I have a 2004 Chevy. The owners manual doesn't say anything about rear end additive and when I called a dealer, the lady that was in service sounded like she only knew what the manual had in it.
How abou the Dextron III in the transfer case? This is what a parts house recomended.
Thanks

The additive was discontinued in 2003 if I'm not mistaken. Dextron III is what is recommended for the transfer case.
If you look under the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, it should provide the recommended maintenance items based on mileage/date. When it's time to replace the dextron III in the transfer case there should be a page next or before that tells you what to use when replacing the transfer case fluid.

Chevrolet Silverado all the way!! Much better built truck bar none. Fully boxed hydoformed frame, solid powertrain, best interior, best ride, the list goes on and on.... Toyota's Tundra is cheaply built and does not have anything on the Silverado. Check out "Bed Bounce" on YouTube. The Tundra practically bends in half at the cab/bed line and twists back and forth. A must view if you are considering the Tundra. This video will definitely change your mind. It's a video Ford put together, but I think the Chevy Silverado performed even better than the Ford. Chevrolet has the experience and know how under their belt, 90+ years, Toyota maybe 15.
