Was pulling 22mpg AVERAGE on the way back from Lenz. That's only a 120% difference than my 98 2500 Silverado.

Looks bad ass, nice choice. I like the gauges but not feeling the fake wood. It can also use a bigger tire/ rim combo. They just look so tiny compared to the truck.

Yeah when those tires are done I could see some 35's on it.

Chevy looks worse from factory. I think 2007.5+ Chevy's need a 6 inch lift and 35's to look right at all.

Congrats! Watch out though, when those occupy wherever people figure out how much those trucks cost, you'll be labeled a 1%

Nice choice! My parents absolutely love the one they picked up, which says a lot because my dad is very much anti-truck. Now he finds excuses to use it besides pulling their 5th wheel.

The Tuxedo Black Metallic paint is baller, looks SO good when it's clean. I have it on my 11 Taurus, it looks like like regular black when dirty, but cleaned up it is almost as baller as Mystic Chrome (96, 04 Cobra color).

Tuxedo Black FTW! Nice! I was eyeballing that exact truck last week on 94 E and that grille looks like it wants to eat something! Like a Mazda or Honda!!

BTW--how was working with Lenz? I have heard good and bad but they sure have the inventory of trucks!

I second the love of the overall look of the truck...with the exception of the fake wood. To me wood has it's place, but that place is NOT the interior of a truck. Seems though that a lot of truck makers are putting the fake wood in their fully loaded trucks now.

BTW--how was working with Lenz? I have heard good and bad but they sure have the inventory of trucks!

Lenz took my license, through me the keys, and told me to take it for a long country drive down Military Road (unaccompanied too). I already knew what they drove like. I test drove a new one from Hiller Ford off HWY 100. I was on the fence about ordering a new 2012 in either Dark Blue Pearl or Black. I've been watching the inventory at Lenz for months. Black on Black seem to disappear quick. Finally saw two trucks come up. The black one I bought with 19k on it and a two tone Blue/Grey with 21k on it (had Nav, but no console, no sunroof, no bed liner). Both listing around 45.5k -46k.

I didn't get there till about 6:15pm so it was dark already. There's a lot of light in the parking lot, but I still missed a good size scratch in the lower corner of the cab. Didn't see it till I was polishing the car myself. It wasn't pointed out in the video, pictures, or anything. They are used trucks though.

They don't haggle or budge on their prices at all. :-/

The process was quick dealing with financing.

My truck didn't get a quick wash while I was sitting with the finance guy (about 8:15pm when I left). Kinda feel if you spend that kind of money they could of gave it a quick detail wipe down. It had a good haze of dust on it. Maybe to some people it would be considered clean, but not me.

The best thing about Lenz is definitely the size of their inventory and how well they list things on their website. I went straight to the two trucks I was interested in from the website. No need to roam the whole parking lot (you better have some time on your hands if you do).

My truck didn't have enough fuel to make it back to the Milwaukee area.

Everyone at Lenz was really friendly, gave us plenty of attention. We actually brought our dog inside the sales floor and they were totally cool with that.

My overall experience was positive. My Dad wants a new truck now and I'd take him to Lenz to look for a truck.

Damn, for $40g+ they could at least top her off and give her a quick wash. Car customer service 101.
