Look for a bounce or constant shake at 40-50 mph. They have not resolved this issue so far. I have a 2006 2wd sierra with 8500 miles on it and have had the condition since day one.

I have a 2007 Classic 1500HD crew cab and when all 4 windows are down, the noise is horrific!!! So bad that I can't drive w/all of the windows down.

I had that same problem with my F150. I opened the sunroof to relieve the air pressure which stopped the buffeting noise. BTW, I have had this problem for years with many different brands. Amazing that this sort of problem is not recognized by all the makers and resolved before putting model into production.

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?
