2018-Chevy-Silverado-1500-Lafayette-LAPickup trucks have been steadily dominating the American market for some years now. The reasons for that are not hard to understand, as there really isn’t anything you can’t do with a truck.

Although crossover and all-purpose models are becoming more and more popular, there is no another car type out there that you can use for carrying a few tons of materials, successfully tackling off-road environments, and dropping your kids off to school, all in a comfortable, tech-rich environment. It’s no wonder the 2018 Silverado 1500 is Chevrolet’s most popular model, as it comes with all the perks of having a pickup truck while adding a few of its own.

Versatility

Not only does the Silverado come with the above-mentioned versatility that’s common to every truck, it is especially versatile, and its trim options reflect that. First of all, there are a few engines to choose from. If you’re using the truck for driving around town, and maybe doing some light carrying, then the 4.3-liter V-6 is more than enough to satisfy your needs.

The most popular engine is the 5.3-liter V-8. It’s able to carry some heavy-duty cargo, your family, an attached trailer, or all of them together with remarkable ease. Then, there’s the class champion. If your day-to-day operations involve carrying massively heavy things, the spectacular 6.2-liter will surely get any job done.

The vehicle’s versatility doesn’t stop with power, however. There are three cab configurations available: regular, extended, and crew. So no matter how many family members, colleagues, or employees you have to drive around as part of your daily routine, there’s definitely a Silverado model that fulfills your needs.

Drivability

Unexpectedly for a vehicle of this size and weight, the 2018 Chevy Silverado is also easy to drive. When your transportation is your tool, you expect that tool to be working smoothly so you can get the job done as efficiently as possible, and the Silverado delivers exactly that.

It accelerates well with any engine, with the top 6.2-liter engine reaching 60 miles per hour from a standstill in just 6.4 seconds, a time that would put most sedans and hatchbacks to shame. It also brakes better than most trucks in its class and has very good steering for a truck that is this heavy.

Interior Comfort

You have a truck that gets any job done and that is fun to drive, but what about all those long hours you spend at the wheel, either driving or waiting to load or unload? Luckily the Silverado comes with a bunch of options to keep you entertained and comfortable.

Ride comfort is great, thanks to great chairs and well-adjusted suspensions, as well as the excellent outside noise cancellation. It also has climate control and a central 7-inch touchscreen with a host of connectivity features, so you and your travel companions will be entertained.

No matter what you need it for, the 2018 Chevy Silverado 1500 will deliver in every situation and get the job done. Check out our inventory online or stop by Service Chevrolet Cadillac today to find your next truck!
