Why The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Caught My Attention – Again

“If I had to purchase a truck all over again, I would choose another 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 – hands down. The redesign in 2019 and the strength of the truck provides a safe and gentle ride, meanwhile a beast of a truck that can accomplish anything,” Ken Zerphey, one of our Sales & Leasing Consultants stated when discussing the new 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500.

The top thing that impressed Ken? The motor selection. You can chose a 4 cylinder to a 3.0 turbo diesel engine to a 6.2 gas engine in a half-ton pickup. There really is an engine for any way that you would be using your new Chevrolet Silverado. Another thing to mention is that there was the redesign in 2019 and they changed a few colors and added the 3.0 Diesel engine – which is actually a much stronger engine than that of close competitors!

Towing is something else that must be considered. Of course, depending on the engine, you won’t be disappointed with towing capacity of 7,500 pounds in the V6 to 12,500 pounds with the max trailering package 6.2 10 speed V8 engine. Trailering technology also received a huge upgrade in the New Generation Silverado – starting with 2019. The Advanced Trailering System offered in the truck is next to none. It is customizable according to your trailer and needs. This is offered in the myChevrolet Mobile App and also will run connection and checklists on your trailer.

Speaking of ease – can we talk cameras for a moment? Camera Technologies DEFINITELY one of the most improved functions in the Silverado 1500. Now when you park your Silverado 1500, you’ll have a rear camera view; front side view and where the front tires will be for tight maneuvers; rear side view to have an incredible sight light down to the back part of your truck. Also adding a bowl view, which will take all of your surroundings, and a front top-down view – literally a bird’s eye view of the front of your truck. This is only on the parking views! You can literally erase your trailer while driving with the transparent trailer view, there of course is a front camera view, pic-in-pic side view (which is incredibly useful!) The rearview mirror can be a mirror or a camera, and you have the rear trailer view, and inside the trailer view – to track your cargo! There are four different hitch views that also include a surround, rear top-down hitch view, bed view, and a hitch view.

Now that the exterior has been covered, let’s talk interior! Ken has to give major kudos to Chevrolet in terms of their voice activation system. He mentioned that in other vehicles, he will ask it to make a phone call and that it was never easily understood. In his Chevrolet Silverado 1500, it is clear and precise – without problems! The level of comfort and how everything has been laid out inside – including more leg room for himself and his passengers along with multi-zone cooling and heating. You won’t be hearing, “Are we there yet?” from the back seat – especially with the Chevrolet 4G connection and with Amazon Alexa available at the ready.
