My comfortable big machine
My vehicle is a real machine, tough and strong, with a great performance in any circumstance, but at the same time it's too comfortable

First Chevrolet truck, would definitely buy again when it's time to trade.
No complaints at all. Love the power, the space, and the comfort. Pull everything I need it to and when empty still manages to get great fuel mileage. As a daily driver as well as a farm truck and recreation truck it gets used in all different terrains. Not an issue at all with this vehicle.

Truck has everything we need.
We love this vehicle. We mostly use it for farm work, so being a 2500 is great for hauling. We love that the back seats fold up for convenience and the inside of the cab has tons of space! We wish it came with mud flaps and better floor mats- we had to upgrade those ourselves. The truck drives smoothly and quietly and has been a great truck so far for our needs.

It looks like a beast and it goes anywhere in any kind of weather.
I love my Silverado! It looks awesome. Head turner. Has every luxury available and drives great. Living in New England also helps having a four wheel drive vehicle. I love the remote start on the freezing cold morning and no bad inclement weather will keep me home.

Light blue four door crew cab diesel pickup.
Reliability and durability of pulling large loads. Also room for full family and comfortable for adults in back seat on long hauls for family events. Plus cargo storage in pickup bed. Plus miles per gallon beats any other larger vehicles on the market.

Feel like a rampage with style
I love the performance of my car, is the best thing I can have, its rude, bold, and edgy make me feel like something cool

The Chevy Silverado is a great truck.
The truck is very reliable, comfortable with slot of features. It comes with power, Bluetooth, and hotspot hookup. Plenty of space for tools and equipment with a 10'bed and tool bins. It is a great truck and sturdy. I pull thousands of pounds with ease behind it.

Diesel injector replacement at 104,000 miles.
Truck had extended warranty to 100,000. Injector had to be replaced at 104,000. GM would not cost share anything on this repair. To replace 1 injector was 3 days in the shop and $1,700. Recomend not to buy warranty and trade truck with less then 50,000 miles.

Even though it is pretty, it is pretty crappy.
It rides smooth and it goes fast. I cannot figure out how to work the Charger on the console though. .

Infotainment issues
I love my 2500 HD Duramax, plenty of power, plenty of room, only has 33k miles. The only problem I am having is the Infotainment system. The screen switches on its own, sometimes goes blank, volume sticks. Really annoying. Will get the dealer to check it again at the next maintenance appointment.

Pros from Owners

likeFilled Ashley G.

The pros of the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD LT is that it is, a great work truck but it is also a great family truck. It has a lot of room, so you are not all squished up. The bed on this truck is very durable.

likeFilled Jeff S.

It Is dependable, safe and handles good. It drives and handles very well. Very good visibility, and nice mirrors. Headlights are bright giving good night driving visibility. Seats are comfortable for long trips.

likeFilled Leanne B.

The vehicle handles very well, and has an excellent radio systems. It is easy to maneuver the controls on the dash and wheel. It comes with Wi-Fi, OnStar, and Sirius radio, which are free for a trial period. After the period, you have to pay, but it is worth it.

Cons from Owners

dislikeFilled Ashley G.

I can only think of one con, but that comes in most all full sized trucks. That is the gas mileage. Of course, all trucks could do better on gas. Other than that I cannot really think of any cons. I absolutely love the Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD LT.

dislikeFilled Jeff S.

The radio looks good and functions well. But does not sound as good as I would like. The Dome light Is just 2 really small lights together just above the rear view mirror. They do not light the cab very well.

dislikeFilled Leanne B.

The cons of the vehicle are that it is very large and can be difficult to park. For someone who is just starting to drive, I would not recommend the vehicle. Turns also have to be taken slightly wider than usual, and parking can be tight.
