So far so good 700 miles driven

Like the features of the lt. Put 750 miles on it since purchased. Towed some weight and have used the 4x4. Dont like the shift patterns in tow haul mode on the down shifts. Seems harsh on the transmission. Dont care too much for the v4-v8 lag and its shifts back and forth in city. Wish it wasn't under warranty or I'd get a programmer to shut it off. Nice interior, double can seems smaller then my extended cab 05' maybe because of 4 door. Nice truck, cruises at 80 on highway average 350 a tank city/highway. Like the cruise control, doesnt downshift like crazy. Good truck so far.

Best Truck Yet

This is the 3rd Silverado I’ve owned and the second new truck I’ve had. I originally leased this truck and liked it so much I bought it. Only one re-program recall that they did during an oil change. Like a Rock

Safe _driving

Trany bucks a bit in first gear though first 28000 miles put on by another family member. Get free minutes on Chevy truck phone not on 2020 gm vehicles. Navigation system always on don't have to set destination for it to be on. Safe vehicle 8 blinker lights in each mirror. Great for letting your intention known

Worst Truck

Our brand new truck has been in the shop repeatedly and the dealership doesn't care. The engine lights come on, four wheel drive doesn't work. It was bought brand new. Theres no reason to have this much trouble with this truck. The cheap, off the bank lot, repo wasnt in the shop as much as this thing. Its not comfortable, its rough riding. Its junk. 40,000 dollar piece of junk.

Quality truck with lots of features

I upgraded from an extended cab to a crew cab to accommodate my growing family. This truck is very roomy plus has all the bells and whistles. It drives and rides smooth. Excellent truck so far.

Silverado is a great truck

great truck. does everything very well . plenty of power, super comfortable. have had zero issues with this truck overall. the only failing i see is the fact that the oem batteries are garbage. they dont last beyond three years if you drive above average. put in a good aftermarket battery when the oem fails and you're good to go.

Good car

Is overpriced, up to $67,000 or more for the average guy is out of reach. The priced shown for 2017 is to much. $ 31,000 . The should be worth $20,000 I will not pay more $20,000.
