Chevy introduced the foundation for its first pickup truck in 1918. Since then, the brand’s reputation for reliability has steadily grown and now includes its commercial fleet as well. At the head of this pack is the 2021 Chevy Silverado 4500 HD, with substantial power under the hood and a host of upfit options. In short, this truck is ready to go to work.
1. Focused on You, the Driver
As soon as you step inside, the 4500 creates an optimal driving experience. From the downward-sloping hood that ensures great visibility to the tuned shocks and cab mounts that deliver total ride comfort, this truck checks every box. The plush cabin provides up to 13 auxiliary switches, each within easy reach, and triple-sealed doors create a serene environment.
Safety is every bit as important as comfort in this truck. It’s equipped with standard front and seat-mounted side-impact airbags to safeguard the front passengers and driver. Head-curtain airbags are also included.
2. Designed for Accessibility
A big, brawny truck like the 4500 can make service and maintenance difficult. But Ford thought of every detail, including accessibility, to simplify your life. The easy-to-reach battery box with available jump-start stud is positioned directly below the cab’s driver’s side.
The diesel exhaust fluid fill sits on the right front fender for quick fluid refills. Likewise, the forward-tilting engine cover makes routine maintenance a breeze. Even the 50-degree wheel cut enables the truck to deftly maneuver around tight job sites – and grants you clear access to the engine.
3. Crafted with Power
Every time you need its robust capabilities, the 4500 will be waiting for you. It can haul heavy loads with ease, and the chassis cab boasts a substantial fuel capacity – 65 gallons.
Behind this truck is what Chevy calls “nonnegotiable power.” This simply means the Duramax 6.6L turbodiesel V8 engine and Allison transmission duo can take on any job at any time. An optional locking rear axle enhances handling and performance both on and off the beaten path.
4. Structured for Your Upfit Needs
The 4500 is available with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 23,500 pounds. Drivers also receive a versatile platform, optional factory rear air suspension system, and a painted chassis that helps protect against corrosion. All of these features create a truck that can be upfitted in a variety of ways, allowing you to aptly transform the 4500 into a(n):
- Ambulance and rescue vehicle
- Utility and service rig
- Snowplow or spreader
- RV
- Mobility vehicle
- Dump truck
- Cargo body hauler
5. Fitted with All the Latest Tech
Whether you’re on the worksite or enjoying an off-road excursion, Chevy keeps you connected in your 4500 with the available Chevrolet Infotainment System, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto compatibility. A WiFi HotSpot is even available so your entire crew can get online. And the myChevrolet Mobile App puts control of your pickup in the palm of your hand.
If you’ve been searching for a workhorse with rugged capability and all the creature comforts we expect of vehicles today, search no more. The 4500 is the companion you didn’t realize you needed – and you can see it today. Stop by Service Chevrolet and learn how this versatile pickup can be customized to meet your needs.
