Both break down into additional trim levels, each of which adds features like custom styling, off-road protection, and upgraded wheels. Consider the LT Trail Boss, which adds features such as an advanced trailering package, a way power driver seat including power lumbar, heated driver and passenger seats, and a slew of driver-assist technologies. The Silverado LTZ 4X4 aims to impress with sought-after features like all-terrain tires and an off-road suspension.
The range-topping High Country offers up features like HD Surround Vision with two trailer view camera positions, a rear camera mirror, a bed view camera, and a head-up display. With so many trim levels and options available, determining the best Chevy Silverado trim level for your needs can make for a daunting task.
The Chevrolet Silverado is a good truck, yet it's still an underdog in the full-size pickup world. Capable and comfortable as it might be, Chevy just can't compete with the fancy-pants Ram and do-it-all Ford F But even so, the Silverado's myriad configurations and distinctive design give it some genuine appeal.
The Silverado is available with no fewer than seven engine and transmission combinations, everything from a base 4. The midrange 5. Beyond the underhood configurations, the Silverado is offered with single-, double- or crew-cab body styles. You can pair those with a inch short bed, inch standard bed or inch long bed.
Three axle ratios are offered and you can choose between two- and four-wheel drive. For this review, I've got what's arguably the best combination of the bunch: a 3. I can't overstate how much I love this engine.
Pushing out horsepower and pound-feet of torque, there's enough oomph to get this full-size pickup off the line quickly.
Highway lane-changes are easy-peasy thanks to gobs of midrange torque, and this truck will hum along at highway speeds smoothly and efficiently. With the diesel engine and four-wheel drive, the Silverado is estimated to return 22 miles per gallon in the city, 26 mpg highway and 24 mpg combined. With the crew-cab body, the Silverado has a gallon fuel tank, so I could conceivably go miles between fill-ups. The regular-cab truck gets a larger gas tank, and it'll do nearly miles in one stretch.
Generally speaking, the Silverado handles as well as any other truck. The brakes feel solid and linear under my foot, and the steering has a nice amount of weight and feedback. But Chevy could learn a few things from Ram when it comes to ride quality. The Silverado is floaty over bumpy pavement and every pothole is a jarring experience. You can get adaptive dampers, but only on the tippy-top Silverado High Country. A full air suspension, like the Ram's, would really do a lot to make this truck more livable day to day.
In terms of truck stuff, the Silverado is on the weaker side of competitive. When properly configured two-wheel drive, long box , max payload is 2, pounds, while towing can get as high as 13, pounds four-wheel drive, double cab, standard box, 6. The Colorado gets 20 mpg in the city and 26 mpg on the highway.
By comparison, the Silverado gets 18 mpg in the city and 24 mpg on the highway. Towing — If you have a large trailer or boat to tow or you need a truck that can haul a lot of materials, the Silverado is the right vehicle for you. The Silverado has a maximum towing capacity of 12, lbs. Comfort — When it comes to the interior, both the Colorado and Silverado have comfortable and attractive interiors.
