Silverado 2500HD, , LT, Crew Cab Pickup, When a task calls for more capabilities than a standard pickup truck can handle, it's time to call in the heavy-duty reinforcements. And when it comes to heavy-duty pickups, the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is a worthy choice among a decidedly small group of competitors.This year the Silverado line of heavy-duty trucks receives a host of improvements to help it keep up with -- and in some instances, prevail over -- its competition. Starting with a completely new fully boxed frame for added rigidity and strength, Chevy then bolted on new suspension components for a more comfortable ride. On top of this, the Silverado's towing and hauling capacities have increased.The Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is offered in regular cab, extended cab or crew cab body styles. The regular cab is only available with a long bed (8 feet), while the extended and crew cabs can also be had in standard bed lengths (6.5 feet). Trim levels start at the base Work Truck and climb to the LT and range-topping LTZ.The Work Truck trim level includes 17-inch steel wheels, air-conditioning, a trip computer, vinyl floor coverings, a 40/20/40 split front bench with fold-down center armrest, vinyl upholstery, a tilt steering wheel and a four-speaker AM/FM stereo. Stepping up to the LT adds alloy wheels, tinted rear windows, keyless entry, full power accessories, carpeted floor coverings, cloth seats, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, driver-side lumbar adjustments, cruise control, OnStar, satellite radio and a CD/MP3 player. Many of the LT features are available on the Work Truck as options.The standard power plant for the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD is a 6.0-liter gasoline V8 engine that produces 360 hp and 380 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic is the only available transmission.Rear-wheel drive is standard for all models, with four-wheel drive optional. The Work Truck 4WD receives a traditional floor-mounted transfer case, while the two other trim levels get Autotrac, a knob-controlled electric transfer case that features an automatic setting that engages 4WD when wheel slippage is detected.In terms of safety, the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD features antilock disc brakes, stability control, hill-start control and trailer sway control as standard. Front side and side curtain airbags are available as options, as are power-adjustable pedals, rear parking sensors and a rearview camera.The Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD's interior is nearly identical to the previous year's. As such, the Work Truck is the most utilitarian of the trim levels, with vinyl covering and very little in the way of creature comforts. The LT offers a more inviting cabin with cloth and carpeting, but both models come standard with a standard three-person front bench that requires a more trucklike dash., Four Wheel Drive,Tow Hooks,Power Steering,ABS,4-Wheel Disc Brakes,Chrome Wheels,Tires - Front All-Season,Tires - Rear All-Season,Automatic Headlights,Heated Mirror
