    Three years in a row this has happened. I take it to the Chevy Dealer and they get to heat great, but they won't tell me what they do to make it heat.

One of two things has happened. Either your coolant has gotten really low (easy enough to check) or you heater core is starting to plug up.

Why would my heater blow out cool air when sitting still and then hot air when going down the road and then it's not all that hot

Try flushing or blowing high pressure air through the heater core lines. its sludge build up and need to be flushed through heater core only. check antifreeze fluid level. only put in straight antifreeze, do not mix. most people do not know what mixture should be, so be safe and add straight, it will not hurt it, i run 100% straight antifreeze and never had a problem or worry about it ever freezing and cracking my block, heads or radiator cracking.
