Chevy Silverado 1500
MotorTrend- The Chevy Silverado has always carried everything between being a luxury truck to a work pickup. Chevy Silverado comes in three cab types, two-bed lengths, and a towing capacity of up to 12,500 pounds. One thing is for sure, every task is met with the Silverado.
Originally, the Silverado name was used as a trim level for trucks that Chevrolet manufactured until 1998. The first-generation Chevrolet Silverado was in production from 1999-2006 model years. It offered three engine choices; a 4.3-liter V-6, a 4.8-liter V-8, and a 5.3-liter V-8. They were paired to either a four-speed automatic or five-speed manual transmission. In 2003, the Silverado SS was introduced. It was powered by a 6.0 liter V-8 with 345-hp and 380 lb-ft torque mated to a four-speed automatic. The second generation model came out in 2007 and was in production until the 2013 model year. And with that, a 403-hp 6.2-liter V-8 was added. One unique feature that was added to the Silverado 1500’s V-8 engines for the second generation was cylinder deactivation, which allows the engine to operate in four-cylinder mode for improved fuel economy.

The current third-generation Chevrolet Silverado 1500 now features a direct injection and cylinder deactivation for improved fuel economy and performance in its engines. Chevrolet’s MyLink infotainment system is also available, and it now has Android Auto and Apple CarPlay integration.
The Chevy Silverado 1500 offers two powerful V-8 trucks and the MyLink multimedia interface which allow you to do any work out of your truck. But if diesel-powered full-size pickup is what you are looking for, the Silverado 1500 isn't the truck. The Silverado Heavy Duty offers the oil-burning powertrains you need.
