Easy. Take the Silverado. Feels way better on the road and the Titan's interior makes the Silverado's feel nice lol.

Its a 1500 so it'd have a 4.8 or a 5.3; hopefully the 5.3. Lift looks like a Rancho maybe with a dual front shock kit?

Both are nice looking trucks. I unfortunately know that is no help, but.....

*BUYER BEWARE*

Be very careful buying from Good Guys.

If it has the 5.3 or 6.0 the chevy. Cuz the 4.8 is gutless and it will drink the gas!!!! But me If I was getting a lifted truck with big tires and stuff I would get a dodge 5.9 diesel. Sure there a bit more expensive but those 5.9s cannot be beat.

those pics almost look photo chopped. the wheels are the same and the tires almost look the same from truck to truck. I personally like the Titan, but whats been said, the chevy might be a better choice depending on the engine. the 5.3L engine might not have enough power considering the size of those tires/wheels.

watch out for that dealership. Out of those two i would get the titan unless the silverado has a 6.0. But like others have said if i had my chouce i would get like an 05 cummins diesel, those trucks will get 9mpg where the cummins/other diesels will get like 16mpg with the same size tires and driving habbits. Plus you can add like over a hundred horsepower and torque with a programmer. The diesel helps pull tose big tires too.

Diesels are the way to go for trucks. My parents have an 07 duramax and that thing is badass. I would love to have one.

It better be at least a 2500HD. My buddy has a 2500HD lifted and he gets 10mpg so I couldn't imagine what a 1500 would get. I personally want a truck like that but wouldn't get it unless it was a turbo diesel. They can move and get better gas mileage.

in my opinion if ur gonna buy a lifted 1500 or a lifted titan, go with the titan 100%. but if your going to buy a 2500 then its a different story. titans dont suck

yep, 5.3+35's=10 mpg, titan 5.6+35's=12 mpg, i raced a 1500 stock in friends lifted titan on 35's and my friend won by 4 car lengths.

Titans aren't that bad actually. They can get up alright, although when buying a truck there is only one thing you need to remember:

"Real trucks don't have spark plugs!" lol
