The 2021 Chevy Silverado is incredibly versatile. The Silverado 1500 is a full-sized but light-duty pickup truck, and it works for somebody who needs a lot of power without driving something too heavy. It comes with lots of powertrain options and two cargo bed sizes, and there are even three cabin styles for you to choose from. You can customize this truck to your liking, so it’s no surprise that it’s well-loved.
1. You Can Tow Large Loads
The Chevy Silverado 1500 is incredibly capable when it comes to towing large loads. If equip your truck with a V8 engine, 20-inch wheels, and the Max Trailering package, then you can haul 13,300 pounds. This is perfectly in line with what you’d expect of a truck in this class.
2. The Multi-Camera Trailering System
Towing is made safer by the multi-camera trailering system. The Silverado 1500 soars well ahead of the competition, as it offers more camera angles than any of its in-class competitors. The cameras help you hitch your trailer, park, and actively drive with utmost ease and safety. You can even view your truck bed, and you can utilize a zooming feature on all of the cameras.
You’re sure to be safe on all sides on every journey with this camera system. It’s especially fantastic for when you’re hauling those large, bulky loads.
3. Lots of Cargo Space and an Excellent Payload
It’s not just towing that this truck handles well. It can also transport a massive 2,280 pounds of cargo in its truck bed. You’ll access this payload capacity by equipping your truck with the 2.7-liter turbocharged engine and the long cargo bed.
The long cargo bed gives you 89.1 cubic feet of space to fill up with gear, so there’s plenty of room for every activity. The Silverado 1500’s truck bed can handle whatever you throw at it.
4. Excellent Safety Features
All modern vehicles have some technology-based safety features, and the Silverado 1500 has some of the best available. There’s a pre-collision alert, emergency braking system, and an alert that will tell you if you’re too close to the vehicle that’s in front of you. There’s blindspot monitoring that also comes in handy when you’re driving.
5. The Teen Driver System
Chevrolet has incredible Teen Driver technology that’s useful for parents everywhere. This technology lets you set a speed limit in your truck. The speed limit stops your teen drivers from driving too quickly, so you can know that they’re safe and abiding by the law, too.
You can monitor your teen’s driving habits using an app on your phone, and that will help you correct unsafe driving behaviors that they may be exhibiting. Overall, it’s a great way to make parents feel at ease while their teens are out driving the truck.
