This is the truck for contractors and others who need a versatile and capable cargo hauler. Chevy equips the Silverado with range of engines from a 4.3L V-6 to a 6.2L V-8. The Silverado offers 4 and 6-speed automatics; both are available with a range of axle ratios to suit most needs. A choice of bed lengths is available. Braking duties are handled by disc/drum layout. The Silverado 1500 is a good value for a full-size truck, and offers a surprisingly refined driving experience.

What Changed:

The Silverado 1500 series trucks see a number of powertrain revisions for 2010. Most 1500 models are powered by either 4.8L V8 or 5.3L V8. Both engines can run on ethanol and feature variable valve timing and cylinder deactivation. The 6.0L V8 has been dropped. The 6.2L V8 is now offered with an extreme towing package. The short box is no longer available with the extended cab.
