Why does my Silverado Sierra feel like its missing something?
Most quality Scan tools will read misfire counters on newer GM products. Need to pin point what cyl is misfiring if at all. Another quick check since its at freeway cruise speed is to drag your foot on the brake just enough to unlock the torque converter. If the miss felling goes away it could be the torque conveter locking and unlocking.

When did my GMC Sierra air conditioner stop working?
I had a 2001 GMC Sierra that did this when truck was less the one year old (summer of 2001 is when it was). The dealer had the truck in the shop idling for a long time and the A/C worked perfectly. I told them to take it for a ride and see. So the service manager in an effort to convince me nothing was wrong went for a ride with me driving.

Is there a problem with my Chevy Silverado?
Will turn key and it is like no power from battery to starter, but have lights, radio, etc. Turn key again or sometimes multiple times, to no avail. Then, turn it one more time and it starts. Then the next 15 starts, no problem. Sometimes hot engine, sometimes cold. UPDATE: 2-6-14; I sold the truck to my father. He changed the starter.
