Default 01 Club cab shocks

Ok folks I need your opinion on what shocks to buy for my club cab. It's a 2 wheel drive that takes me to work and back and once in a while I might drag a small trailer behind me. A local parts store has shocks for my truck that range in price from $17 gabriels to $99 edelbrocks. I'll probably buy shocks somewhere in the middle of the range. What do you guys think?

I just recently purchased the reflex shocks from NAPA. Very good shock with a life time garuntee. I believe they were around $48 a piece. So far, they work really well.

I just got my front shocks replaced at the dealer since I launched my truck in the air and blew them out. I think it was like $150 both sides, installed with a lifetime garuntee on parts and labor. They are OEM's, not cheap-o's.

I use Monroe Reflex on my 2001 CC. They are really good for the price, got them at Napa for about $45.00 each. The Reflex is much better than the Monroe Sensa-Trac's I had before. Reflex is a great shock for your truck, without spending too much, especially if it's 2WD and doesn't go off-road.
