SILVERADO PERFORMANCE AND DURABILITY

There is no question that the performance of the Chevy Silverado puts it among the most capable and versatile full-size trucks on the market. The fourth generation of this model allows you to choose between EcoTec3 and Duramax power plants, which means that your available performance ranges from 355 to 420 horsepower. In general, the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine provides enough power and torque for most drivers; however, the Duramax 3.0-liter turbocharged diesel engine is more adequate for heavy hauling and towing. If you are interested in a highly responsive engine, the EcoTec3 options are more adequate.

TOWING, CARGO, AND PAYLOAD CAPACITY

The Silverado 1500 had an original payload of 1,500 pounds; this capacity remains as part of the model’s name, but you can haul up to 2,280 pounds with the higher trim levels of the current generation. In case you need to tow trailers, boats, or RVs, the Silverado can handle up to 13,300 pounds. With a cargo volume of 66.6 cubic feet, you can haul whatever you need with ease; we are talking about construction materials, heavy tools, furniture, luggage, groceries, and just about anything else. The Silverado can get the job done whether you drive it for work, road trips, commuting, or weekend adventures.

SILVERADO 1500 EXTERIOR STYLE

Gone is the previous look of the Silverado as a pickup truck that looked mostly functional. The exterior of the current generation has been redesigned to make the truck look bolder, more stylish, and more imposing. The prominent black grille is inspired by the look of trophy trucks modified to compete in the legendary Baja 500 trail endurance race. The Silverado profile is legendary at American job sites, but its muscular contour accentuated by sculpted fenders gives an unparalleled rugged look. You can trust that the Silverado will turn heads around Houghton Lake and Harrison, MI whether you are working, commuting, running errands, or just having fun.

INTERIOR, TECHNOLOGY, AND SAFETY

The standard seven-inch touchscreen infotainment system of the Silverado can be upgraded to a larger 13.4-inch display to play high-definition videos or run apps such as Microsoft Office. The cab is comfortable and spacious thanks to the generous space for both passengers and cargo. Depending on the trim package, extra features may include Bose® sound systems, panoramic sunroofs, and heater seats. Drive-assist features that maximize safety include emergency braking, collision monitoring, lane-keeping assistance, and blind spot warnings.
