Of the last generation pickups, Ford won, hands down. The Chevy's were cheap crap last time around and were riddled with problems. Chevy is still selling the last-generation Silverado this year as the 'Silverado Classic'. I'd avoid them like the plague. I'd be willing to be that exact model is what your coworker got a steep discount on.
In the 1500, they've beefed up the frames, put in better engines (which will shut down cylinders on the highway), put struts up front, and rack & pinion steering. Next year, when the 6 speed tranmissions come out, they will get even better gas mileage highway cruzing and towing.
