Has very comfortable seating, engine is smooth, transmission shifts very smoothly, very nice to drive. Still trying out all the new features, so far everything works great.

Worst truck I have ever owned

I don’t particularly like to bash American vehicles, but this truck is a real piece of garbage. I currently have 4675 miles on the engine. I don’t beat on it, it cost me too much money to beat on it. It started making noise and I wound up finding out the lifters in the engine went bad! What? 4675 miles and the lifters went bad? What ever happened to good old American craftsmanship? God help us!!!

Major engine problems

Lifter replaced at 4500 miles and another one at 9100 miles. The truck left me stranded 200 miles from home one time and another time it almost made me miss a flight. I don’t feel safe driving it far from home and it’s a brand new 2021 4x4 Silverado LT.

This truck is the best I’ve owned.

This truck comes with all the new technologies offered in a Chevrolet 2021 truck. This truck meet all my needs a trailer hitch, 4/4, easy to operate. Heated seats, steering wheel, electric seat adjustment and great steering wheel adjustment. It has more than enough room front and back, the air adjustments on driver and passenger side. A easy smooth riding truck.

My Ideal Truck

This is the truck my wife and I decided had all our needs and wants. It pulls our pontoon boat great already. We are considering an RV, and it should pull it easily. Fuel economy was a consideration when choosing the Duramax 3.0 engine with the 10 speed automatic transmission. The camera views for trailering are amazing. We feel safe with all the safety features included in the LTZ package. Four wheel drive is available if needed.

2021 Chevrolet LT Trail Boss Awesome truck

My wife and I bought this truck two weeks ago. Absolutely a total different truck. Compared to the many other Silverado trucks I have owned. We bought the 5.3 liter mother in ours. Was on the fence of maybe going to the 6.2 liter instead. But plenty of power for our needs. The ride is amazing. The ground clearance is much better. We haul a single horse trailer with our frequently. So going into some fields and stuff for parking at barrel races. Easy breezy! The Goodyear Duratrac tires that come on the Trail Boss. Best tire I have personally owned. All the interior instrumentation. Exactly where it needs to be. Chevrolet hit a homerun with the Silverado Trail Boss. It's best of both worlds for truck buyers. Highly recommend this truck.
