- Reliability (3)While the powertrain is generally durable, this era is known for Active Fuel Management (AFM) oil consumption issues and fragile interior plastics/dashboard cracking.
- Maintenance (4)Parts are widely available and relatively inexpensive due to the shared platform with the Silverado and Suburban, making most repairs straightforward.
- Technology (3)For 2008, it was well-equipped with Bose audio and a rear-seat entertainment system, though the touchscreen navigation feels very dated by today's standards.
- Comfort (5)Exceptional ride quality that mimics a luxury SUV more than a pickup, featuring plush leather seating and a remarkably quiet cabin in the LTZ trim.
- Dynamics (3)The 5.3L V8 offers smooth acceleration, but the vehicle's heavy curb weight results in significant body roll and a lumbering feel during cornering.
