Can anyone confirm that the rear brakes on the 2005 2500/3500 GM trucks are drum brakes and not disc brakes? Thanks!

You understand correctly, Kennedy! Only 1/2 tons went back to the drum brakes!

My 2005 arrived the last week of October. It has disk brakes in the back. :)

Why are they going back to an antiquated tech ? Is GM cheaping out again ? I understand all models will have drums in the rear again soon.
