Most solid and technologically designed vehicle

A very well designed and laid out vehicle with great comfort and stability. Towing capacity and drive train make pulling a large trailer easy. Great accessories and technological tools.

Chevy Silverado 3500

This was a very reliable and fun vehicle to own! I did a lot of after-market modifications to the truck. I live by the duramax and it is on of the best engines to heavily mod or if your not into that and like it stock then its perfect like that too!

Awesome Truck!

I've owned my Chevrolet Silverado 2500 for about 6 months now, and I LOVE it! Ride is excellent, a little stiff but that's not only to be expected, but welcome in a 2500. When I drive a "regular" car now, I do not feel safe. Great work truck, although mine was decked out at the factory, Midnight Edition, heated seats (Love them!), etc. Great vehicle, very happy with my purchase!

I love Chevys

Great truck. I'm still finding out things it does I never knew about! Forget the remote start, LED side mirror back up lights, rear view camera, lane departure warning system, Parking assist, Leather interior, Adjustable pedals, Memory seat, mirror, pedal-set mode, tilting mirrors for back-up, telescoping steering wheel, electric sliding rear window, voice command, etc. Yeah forget all that! How about the heated steering wheel, traction control, tow/haul mode with paddle shift, heated AND air conditioned seats, 4G wireless hot spot, rhino liner bed liner, soft-drop tail gate (locking), built-in trailer brakes (on the dash). I can't say enough about this truck. I have a 2000 2500 two-wheel drive with 220,000 miles on it and it still runs fantastic.

Exceeded my expectations!

I purchased my 2016 Silverado 2500 HD with high expectations , I have not been disappointed! I would highly recommend you take a good look at a Chevrolet truck - why settle for anything less than the best!

nobody

Chevrolet did a great job with the Duramax and Allison combination. The biggest problem I have had is the parts made in China. Dash board, hoses, coolant and hydraulic lines all failed on my last 2500. After nearly 400,000 miles it was time for a change even though the truck was still running strong. My new truck has a few issues. The roof is leaking due to inferior gaskets. Other than that I am pleased.

Warranty Decreased

There is hardly in difference between a 2015 and a 2016 model. In 2016 GM decreased the warranty from 5 year/100000 miles to 5 year / 60000 miles. I would recommend finding a 2015 model.

All around best truck

Spent considerable time researching and test driving trucks. Despite the ford and ram having having more power on paper. It wasn't noticeable while driving unloaded. The Chevy seemed the most refined truck overall. The rams drive-train felt as good as the Chevy but the rest of the truck felt lower build quality and less features. The ford felt a whole step lower. All in all I felt the Chevy was the best all around. Everyday I'm liking it more and more.

Great Truck

Had since Jan 1 and love it. Great truck!! Traded my 1500 up to the 2500 and what a difference. More power and towing ability. Got the WT model and love the vinyl interior and no carpet. Great for me as I work in sandy areas and sand and dirt are a major problem for carpet.
