Should I Buy the 2023 Chevrolet Silverado 1500?
The battle among full-size pickup trucks is perhaps the toughest fight in the U.S. automotive market. The Silverado has loads of capability, even as a no-frills work truck, but most truck shoppers will want to add a few features — and that’s where things can get pricey. Option sheets for full-size trucks like the Silverado include everything from extra-large touchscreens and handy towing aids to go-anywhere gear like lifted suspensions with heavy-duty shocks and all-terrain tires. The biggest problem may not be whether to choose the Silverado, but rather which version of the Silverado to choose.
