She's left the "Blue Oval" fold

After getting the repair diagno$i$ on her 98 Expedition the S.O. went out and traded it in on a "Bowtie" (shudder). We now have a 2004 Chevy Silverado, 2500HD, extended cab, long bed, 4x4, factory 2" lift (which I have mentally named RMS Titanic). As I am a Blue Oval guy from way back can anyone enlighten/warn/counsel me on this truck and it's faults....er....character traits? We're already getting the instrument cluster replaced for free by the Chevy dealer and the transfer case has a 2 year warranty on it. I know it should have no problem towing her steel horse trailer. I've already had to install cab steps (she's 5'1") and will need to replace the junk AM/FM/CD player (it still has a stuck CD from the prior owner). Any input is welcome.
