Truck of the Month
THE ALL-NEW 2019 CHEVY SILVERADO CHASSIS CAB
The new 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 4500HD, 5500HD, and 6500HD trucks are knocking on our door. Everyone at the Truck Center has been anticipating the new truck since it was unveiled earlier in the spring. We know a lot of our customers are eagerly awaiting the truck too!
If you haven’t read about the 2019 Silverado, here are a few details that have people excited:
It’s more fuel-efficient. For the 2019 model year, Chevy is introducing Dynamic Fuel Management in the Silverado. This system directs cylinders to not fire in certain circumstances. As a result, it boosts fuel economy. In the new Silverado, it may be a boost of about 5 percent. On the diesel side of things, the turbo-diesel will have start/stop technology, which will also be a feature of the 6.2-liter V8. The truck is also being built using lighter materials. The hood, doors, and tailgate, for instance, are made of aluminum. When it comes to the V8 crew cabs, the truck has lost 450 pounds over the 2018 model. It’s bigger. It starts with a bigger wheelbase, which helps accommodate a bigger bed (7 more inches of floor space width over the 2018 model). There’s a bigger back seat in the four-door crew cab — 3 more inches of legroom. There’s also more storage space in the back seat!
And with a bigger bed, Chevy decided to offer a power-operated tailgate option, meaning you can now open or close the tailgate with the push of a button — from the key fob or from in the cabin. These details only begin to scratch the surface of the new 2019 Silverado.
