l can say with all there new improvments befor l though my 1990 truck was tough the newere modles lv tryed the pasy 3years and 150,xxxmiles there all excelent except for few things.
but there safety is in peckable.
l demolished my recent 06 Rado Crew Z71
l first hit a dear fullon at 50mph then lost controll going sideways into a deep culvert, rolling over 1compleat time and a half and grazing a wooden hydro pole crushing "badly denting/caving in" the cab driverside top of windshild
as it sat running for 30seconds on the driver side l shut it off opened the passenger window and pulled myslef out. laster when the tow truck fliped it back over did l find foot and half of water in the cab not to m knolage the culvert l landed in was also flowing with a great amount of water.
best news l walked away only with my entire leftside still aching slightly brused.
the bad: my Air bages NEVER deployed
GM nor my dealer or insurance will explain why they never went off l was wondering if any body can help answer my question.
thanks Brad
