More Chevy dealers to do warranty work, tried to take my GMC to a Chevy dealer while I was out of town and they would not fix problem. Did give good directions to GMC shop. Better looking grill IMO...on the GMC. Edited by: aketay

aketay, are those factory head lights? They kinda look like Denali lights or something but maybe it is just the angle of the pic. I don't have my 03 here to compare. Don't remember mine looking like that!

Inside and under the hood it is the same truck.


It is the outside that sets the two apart.


I love the way the GMC looks. From the factory the Chevy is ok....really nice after guys add to it....like new grills, lift, and matching paint on the bumper.


I love the way the GMC looks.....I have always had a eye for them even when I was driving my Ford around.http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/Embarrased.gif

See how Nowake's and aketay's headlights look different? Is the angle of the pics? Or are aketay's a Denali style?

Same truck, same manufacture - minor cosmetic differences.


However back in the old days when I was a kid we used to say, "a GMC is a Chevy with lock-washers".

From trying to find my new truck there are only a few things I could find that were different:


-front end


-molding on doors (I couldnt stand the Chevy molding)


-tail lights


Other than that I couldnt find anything. GMC dealers are fewer, but I have one close to my house.

You are correct, Denali stock. Brighter than the originals, wife even approved them.
