Chevrolet Silverado 1500

This version of the Silverado has a fairly comfortable ride, as well as easy access and cargo loading. Compared to the previous generation, the steering has improved feel and response. The payload rating is generous. We appreciate the selectable full-time 4WD and standard stability control on all V8-equipped Silverados. A hybrid version was available too. On the other hand, IIHS side-crash test results were disappointing.
