If it didn't have everything you wanted why did you take delivery? If I ordered navigation and didn't get it they would have another truck to put on the lot.
The little hole in the bumper is a problem. When I took my boss to pick up his 13 the oil cooler fins were already bent just from road debris while on the delivery truck. I thought that was a bunch of bull.

I hate to say it on a Chevy forum, but the Ford Super Duty is "THE" truck if you are really going to work it. Sure, I like my Silverado 1500 - but would definitely opt for a Ford if I were going to really haul heavy with it.
I used to work for FedEx and we had some Ford vans with GAS ENGINES in them that were pushing 400,000 miles without needing to be rebuilt.

I have the bi-fuel CNG version and ordered it with darn near everything you can get. Getting better-than-advertised gas mileage. Very quiet truck. Small things thrill me. Like how much space the crew cab has with the seats in the "up" position. Who needs the box?
Was also a tiny bit disappointed it didn't fit in the garage. It did on paper, but not in practice.
Love the truck.

If by "other two" you mean Ford and Ram, I drove all three. It was between an Ram and the Chevy. The turnkey CNG (no aftermarket upfitting needed.. comes off the line ready to go) and OnStar sold me. I have OnStar on my other car and use the bejeezus out of it. I do wish a 1500 Bi-fuel was available, or a larger CNG tank on the 2500, but this will still do nicely.

I take delivery of mine on Saturday. I drove all three, even though this is my 4th new Silverado. Dodge was nice, but lacked in creature comforts, Ford rode like a logging truck. Chevy was quiet, agile and comfy.
