Chevy Silverado Overview
The Chevy Silverado was lavished with product awards when it was totally redesigned for 2007. For 2008, Silverado gets some detail improvements and minor pricing adjustments.
The styling is bold yet still conservative when compared with the latest pickups from Dodge, Nissan, Toyota, and Ford. While the sheet metal was all-new for 2007, the main reason the new Silverado looks bolder is that it's three inches wider in front and an inch wider in the rear than the previous generation, a big difference.
The Chevrolet Silverado works hard to live up to its reputation as the 'strongest, most dependable and longest lasting truck on the road'. The 1500 is the 'half-ton', model in Chevrolet's full-size pickup line-up.
There are five engine sizes to choose from: 4.3-liter V6, 4.8-liter V8, 5.3-liter V8, 6.0-liter V8 and 6.2-liter V8; and two transmissions: a four-speed automatic and a six-speed automatic. Like all Silverado's, the 1500 is available in a wide array of bed sizes, wheelbases, drive types and cab sizes, as well as a variety of trim levels.
Safety features include driver and passenger front air bags, tire pressure monitoring system and four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes.
The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is visually unchanged from 2008, but adds the availability of a new 6.2L FlexFuel engine, a new six-speed automatic transmission, electronic stability control standard on all V8-powered trim levels, as well as optional Bluetooth and XM NavTraffic.
