Silverado 1500 vs. Silverado HD: Which Truck Fits Your Lifestyle?

Chevrolet’s 2020 loadout is one of the best ever and their trucks were not slighted. The 2020 Chevy Silverado and Colorado are both fantastic vehicles with many options to fit the needs of every truck-lover. These top-of-the-line trucks will present a tough choice for consumers, as they’ll need to choose between a full or midsize truck. This can be a difficult decision, but Greenwood Chevrolet goes the Extra Mile to help you make the best choice for you. There are benefits to both trucks, so here are the main differences between them to guide you in the right direction. Price Both of these trucks are priced competitively compared to other pickups on the market. The Colorado is the midsized option, making it more affordable than the Silverado. The Colorado MSRP starts at $21,300 while the Silverado starts at $28,500. Both have very similar customization options, which proves that Chevrolet is determined to make sure that the vehicle you want has exactly what you need. Towing Capacity One thing truck owners always need in their pickup is ample towing capacity. You may not be using this on a daily basis, but whether or not you use it frequently, it is still important to know how much you can carry. The Silverado is the bigger of the two trucks, so it outperforms the Colorado in this instance. The 2020 Chevy Silverado has a towing capacity ranging from 6,600 to 9,800 lbs. Even though the Colorado can tow less, it can still get most jobs done with a towing capacity around 3,500 to 7,000 lbs., making it a valuable alternative. Fuel Economy For truck drivers, gas can get expensive. Chevrolet has worked to make truck driving affordable with both of these two vehicles. Surprisingly, the 2020 Silverado slightly outperforms the Colorado with its fuel economy, getting up to up to 23 mpg city and 33 mpg highway. The Colorado does not perform as well, but is still efficient, getting up to 20 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, making both great options in terms of fuel efficiency. Both of these trucks are great options, and really come down to preference between a full or mid-sized truck. We hope this has helped you make your decision.

There’s a lot to be excited about this holiday season, and one of those things is the arrival of brand new 2021 Chevrolet vehicles. While every vehicle in our 2021 lineup has something that sets it apart, there are common features in each one that give you the signature Chevrolet experience, no matter what you drive. These features also set every Chevrolet model apart from other brands on the market. Though they may seem small, or standard, and consequently overlooked, these features make Chevrolet different from any other car manufacturer. Here are some of those little extra things that put Chevrolet in a lane of its own. Seamless Systems Many manufacturers have had the goal of seamlessly connecting your mobile devices to your vehicles, and Chevrolet has perfected this practice in the 2021 lineup. With programs like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, Chevrolet has developed systems for hands free calling and texting, music streaming with Apple Music, Spotify, or any other music streaming service, and navigation to get you where you need to go. These programs are safe and easy to use as well! Touchscreen Infotainment Center Our Touchscreen Infotainment Center allows drivers to feel right at home. You can customize apps on the homescreen in order to suit your needs for navigation, audio, music, climate, and more. Notifications that appear on screen can be read aloud to you, allowing you to keep your eyes on the road. Calls will come through your speakers, also keeping you safe and focused on the road ahead. The Infotainment Center was designed with driver safety in mind, while also making the things that you love about your vehicle as accessible as possible. Rear Camera A rear camera with guiding lines is something that saves lives. While this might not be at the front of your mind while backing in and out of spaces, this is one of the most key safety features in Chevy vehicles. It can save you from bumping into something, fender benders, and as we have mentioned previously, lives. The guiding lines will also help you keep straight when parking, which is especially helpful when parallel parking. Not only will the guide lines point you in the right direction, but the camera also allows you to see your bumper so you will always know how close you are to the vehicle or object behind you. Amazon Alexa Being able to start your car with your voice from your bed on a cold winter morning is something we have all dreamed of. With the help of Amazon and their Alexa system, this dream is now a reality! You are now able to pair your Chevrolet vehicle with your Alexa device, such as an Echo dot, and start your vehicle or control other things within your vehicle from your home. Intellibeam Auto High Beam Another key safety feature you’ll find in every 2021 vehicle is the Intellibeam Auto High Beam. The Intellibeam will automatically turn your high beams on and off based on the conditions around you. For example, in a low light situation your high beams will turn on automatically, but if another set of headlights is sensed coming your way, the high beams will automatically turn off and back on again when it is just you on the road. This is making the road safer for everyone, so that you can focus more on the road and less on your headlights. No matter what 2021 Chevrolet vehicle you choose, you are sure to be entertained and safe on the road thanks to these features. At Greenwood, we go the Extra Mile to get you in the best ride possible, so stop in or call us and let us go the Extra Mile for you today!
