What Owners Say
"Great power and good transmission for towing trailer. Duramax and Allison transmission. Good mileage for such a large vehicle."
Anonymous, CA (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"The pulling power with towing a RV trailer across the USA."
WILLIAM C., NC (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"6.6 Duramax diesel pulling machine nice driving and handling!"
RAY B., WA (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Excellent power train. The DuraMax and Allison are the reasons I purchased this vechicle as I tow a 10,000 pound trailer. Styling is just okay and appointments (trim, lighting, comfort, interior trim, etc) are lacking. While the power train is superior the chassis and suspension do not match, their quality is sub-par and disappointing."
KENNETH H., UT (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"handles well. great acceleration, especially while pulling my 35 foot trailer."
Gerald W., MI (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"It has very good towing capability with good mileage with added towing buster."

Anonymous, CA (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"My Duramax diesel is very powerful and works well pulling a trailer. I use this vehicle off-road as well as on and it works very well (I do have some modifications though)"
Frank G., CA (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Great for towing always reliable"
Ronald G., AL (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Powerful diesel engine. Tows 10,000 lbs easy. Accelerates faster than many cars. For a heavy truck it handles well - not a Mustang but safe."
Anonymous, PA (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Pulling power is excellent with the diesel but mileage is a little disappointing. With the modifications I've made it handles a heavy load very well."
Judy S., MD (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Drives and handles great. Much, much better acceleration, across the board."
Gerald W., MI (2005 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD)"Bought this truck to tow horses. It does that easy. Diesel has lots of power and the Allison transmission is the best"

"This is just an outstanding tow vehicle. The Allison transmission is outstanding: Tow Haul is essentially a rate-command attitude-hold system on downhills, making it extremely easy to drive without riding the brakes."
