Here are some more information for Silverado Sierra:

For the most part, the 2010 Chevy Silverado remains the same vehicle it was in the '09 season. There are a few notable differences in what is available for interior accessories. There are still the same trim packages, body styles, and engines as before. Although it remains largely untouched, these trucks are still more than capable of competing with both the Ford F-series and Dodge Ram. Since the major redesign of these trucks in the mid 2000's, they have seen increased frame strength and a much improved interior quality.

Chevy offers a regular cab, extended cab, and crew cab. The regular cab only has two doors with front bucket or bench seats and minimal rear space behind those seats. Extended cabs have rear doors that can only be opened when the front doors are. Crew cabs offer a great amount of interior space along with 2 rear doors that operate independently of the front ones. Extended cabs offer a decent amount of rear leg room for passengers, but optimal comfort comes with the crew cab, where rear passengers can fully extend there lower appendages. Both extended and crew cabs have rear seats that fold.

Engines offered include a 4.2 liter V-6 with 195 horsepower, a 4.8 liter V-8 capable of 302 horsepower, a 5.3 liter V-8 putting out 315 horsepower, and larger models beyond the half ton have an optional 6.2 liter V-8. All 2010 Chevy Silverados equipped with a V-8 engine are capable of running on E-85 fuel. The V-6 and smaller V-8 engine come with an automatic 4 speed transmission, while all other engine types come standard with a 5 speed automatic. Also available is a 6.0 liter hybrid V-8 that utilizes both a gasoline, and an electric engine. The electric engine does add a little bit of weight to these trucks, and reducing overall towing capacities to 6,100 pounds.

Trim packages available are still the Basic work models, LT, LS, LTZ, and Z71. Basic trucks come with regular cabs and limited accessories. LS models are the mid-level package coming in both regular and extended cabs. An LS truck will have AC, power windows and locks, optional CD players and 2 or 4 wheel drive. Every vehicle has standard rear wheel drive. The LTZ package is Chevy's all out luxury model offering leather upholstery, enhanced center consoles, extended and crew cabs, USB Jacks, and many other options. Z71 models are the off-road packages that come with raised bodies, larger tires, and strengthened suspension parts. Consumers should note that there are there different suspension packages offered for the 2010 Chevy Silverado. There is the standard package that comes on the lower end models, a street package designed for speed and highway driving, and an off-road suspension.

Compared with it's competitors, the Silverado is still a class leader in fuel economy. While Ford boasts it has the best fuel consumption rates, more Chevy packages come out ahead in most cases. Overall consumers can expect between 14 and 20 mpg city or highway driving for gasoline engines, with smaller engines getting the better fuel economy. Hybrid models can push into the low 20's for mpg.

Even without changing much, Chevy can still boast that the Silverado out-competes and leads it's class in many categories. Ride quality and frame strength are some of the best available for pickups, and compared with a F150 the towing capacities are almost identical. Silverados come in a great selection of styles and packages starting at very reasonable prices. For what these trucks offer, consumers looking for a solid reliable work truck should truly consider one of the Silverados offered for 2010.

Chevrolet Silverado, Overhauled and Refined

The old adage "If it ain't broke, don't fix it.” does not belong to General Motors’ auto philosophy. In fact, it has given its outstanding Chevrolet Silverado pickup a complete overhaul to compete more adeptly in the growing truck market.

The most apparent change to the Chevrolet Silverado is the brand new grille and its new headlights. Significant modifications are also made to Chevrolet body parts to improve its aesthetic significance. It is always a risky business when an automaker decides on redesigning or overhauling its best-selling vehicle. However, General Motors is determined to take the risks to gain greater enthusiasts and eventually yield a larger slice of the automotive market.

"The new trucks convey power and strength with great refinement," said John Cafaro who is the design director of the company for full-size trucks. "There is a broad-shouldered, purposeful stance with the vehicles that speaks to the 'real truck' needs of customers."

Trucks are now more than just tools for towing and hauling hay bales on a farm. They have evolved to prove more than just that. Industry analysts said they have become another family vehicle. Most of these trucks available today come with comfortable seating for five or six people, luxurious amenities and a comfortable ride. These trucks combine utility and comfort without sacrificing functionality.

Aside from the Ford Motor Co., the maker of the best-selling Ford F-Series, General Motors is also famed for manufacturing tough and high-performance trucks. To compete tighter with Ford, Dodge and Toyota trucks, Chevrolet overhauled its Silverado. Though the Chevrolet Silverado is basically identical under the skin, the most obvious modification made to the overhauled version is on its exterior styling. The style is made bolder and more captivating by using unique grille, headlights, front fenders, hood and taillights. The grille is made wider. It is accented with a large gold Chevy bowtie in the center. Further, designers made it appear that headlights are wrapping the corners of the car.

Interior improvements are more obvious than exterior modifications. Improvements include the redesigned instrument panel and center console and lowered dashboard which provides more space. "These are the most quiet and refined pickup interiors in the industry," said Gary White, General Motors North America vice president and vehicle line executive for full-size trucks. "Our new Silverado and Sierra each offers a choice of two different interiors, reflecting the broad range of customers and uses of pickups today."

Basic “pure pickup” and premium are 2 different styles of the overhauled Chevrolet Silverado. Basic features include specific door panels with large door pull and release handles, unique gauges, two glove boxes a 6.1-liter storage console and a new underseat storage bin built into a new split-bench seat. On the other hand, the premium interiors are the rest of the changes done to GM’s full-size SUVs. However, it is equipped with an even larger center console, power-adjustable heated bucket seats, leather seating surfaces, a leather-covered steering wheel and chrome trim.

The legroom, headroom and hip room of the vehicle are also refined. The recline angle and travel of the front seat has been increased, and power adjustable pedals are available, providing greater flexibility for drivers of varied statures. GM is expecting that the overhauled version of the pickup would perform better than the old version – profit-wise and more.
