Second truck, my best truck

Good looking, comfortable and powerful enough for any towing needs that most will have. A lot of creature comforts that make it a nice daily driver.

Great vehicle at a great price

Love everything about this truck except I didn?t get enough bells and whistles. The truck is a stock fleet model so bare bones, I should have put a few additions on when I bought it such as a remote starter

Rugged yet refined

The Silverado allows me to do what I need to do around my property. I never have an issue getting stuck in the mud. At the same time, it is comfortable enough to drive to and from the office everyday.

Bought in 2016 - Been Happy With It

I purchased the 2016 1500 4x4 with the Max Trailering Package (NHT) new back in 2016 and have been happy with this truck. Backseat doesn't have air vents which is annoying. At 30K, Chevy replaced the transmission fluid with an LV synthetic, and it made an amazing difference. It no longer bangs / clunks around and the tachometer no longer wanders. It's so much more enjoyable to drive. I pull an 8000lb travel trailer just fine with it.

Nicest vehicle I have ever owned in my life.

Vehicle meets all my needs and exceeds them. Has more options that I know what to do with. Its almost like sitting in my house on wheels. I went in and saw the truck, test drove it and then bought it. Couldn't ask for anything better.

Truck or work of art?

The 2018 Silverado is the best looking truck hands down. I've owned Pontiacs and Chevys for the past 14 years and have never broken down on the road so I expect this truck to take care of me. The ride is so smooth and quiet I can't believe it can also trailer 10,700 pounds. This truck is capable of anything I will ever need.

Most comfortable truck ever!

The 2016 Silverado is a perfect vehicle. I drive a lot and I found this truck to be extremely durable and very comfortable. I drive equally around the city and on the interstate and averaged 18.8 MPG! It?s a must have.

Most reliable truck I've owned

This truck is great. Comfortable for long runs. Pulls whatever I need it to and can carry everything I need it it. Great on gas for what I tow around and haul

Amazing power!!!

For having a 6.2 liter this truck does awsome mpg's must be the new transmissions they are putting in them . Very nice led lighting. This is a very comfortable truck and awsome interior.
