WT

Standard amenities

The Silverado’s base trim level, straightforwardly dubbed the Work Truck, comes standard with no frills. With its 4.3-liter EcoTec3 V6 engine, it delivers 285 horsepower and 305 lb-ft of torque. While its rubberized vinyl floor covering isn’t glamorous, it’s easy to clean — which is a huge perk if you work a dirty job. Its steel Durabed is built to handle rough-and-tumble work, while its infotainment system come with a 7-inch diagonal color touch screen. Standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity makes it easy to access your favorite apps on the go. While that’s a nice tech touch, the WT is equipped a meager selection of safety and driver-assist tools. These include a rear-view camera and the StabiliTrak stability control system.

Available features and packages

You can put a little pep in this workhorse’s step with the available 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8 engine, which provides 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque. If you do a lot of trailering, consider opting for Hitch Guidance. If you want to use your Work Truck as a mobile office, go with the 4G LTE Wi-Fi^® hotspot, and for more convenience, choose the power-locking EZ Lift tailgate. And for more peace of mind, you can opt for Rear Cross Traffic Alert and an automatic locking rear differential.

If you opt for the Work Truck Package, your truck will gain skid plates and a high-capacity air filter.

The WT is available with four cab and truck bed configurations: regular cab, long bed; double cab, standard bed; crew cab, short bed; crew cab, standard bed.

Custom

Standard amenities

The Custom trim is powered by the same 285-horsepower V6 as the Work Truck. It boasts all of the same standard features, but adds a little more style with 20-inch Bright Silver aluminum wheels, deep-tinted glass and a polished exhaust tip. Heated power outside mirrors keep away fog on chilly mornings.

Available features and packages

For a little more muscle, the Custom trim offers a 2.7-liter Turbo engine, which channels 310 horsepower and 348 lb-ft of torque through an eight-speed automatic transmission. It comes with automatic Stop/Start engine technology to help you save on fuel. Much like the WT, it also offers the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 mill. You can also give the Custom trim a sporty flair with a dual-outlet exhaust.

The Custom Convenience Package lives up to its name with remote start capabilities, a content theft alarm, and led cargo bed lighting. It rounds out its handy list of features with an EZ lift power lock and release tailgate and a rear-window defogger.

The available Trailering Package gets your Custom Silverado ready to tow with a trailer hitch, Hitch Guidance, a trailering hitch platform, and all of the necessary connectors you need to tow a trailer.

If you enjoy tech, consider the Infotainment Package. It gives you a compass, OnStar and Chevrolet Connected Services capabilities, along with a trial subscription to SiriusXM Radio for a taste of on-the-go entertainment.

If you want it all, the Custom Value Package bundles the Custom Convenience Package, the Trailering Package, and the Infotainment Package.

The Wheel to Wheel Assist Step and Tonneau Package delivers what it promises. It adds a tri-fold hard tonneau cover, and lets you choose between chrome, black, and off-road wheel-to-wheel rectangular assist steps.

The Rally Edition is listed as an available package that adds the Custom Value Package and a ton of blacked-out features, including 20-inch black-painted aluminum wheels, rally stripes, Chevrolet tailgate lettering, assist steps and trim. It commits to the sleek, black theme with black Silverado badging, a black chrome exhaust tip, and black bowties on the steering wheel horn pad and front grille.

The Custom trim level is available with the following configurations: double cab, standard bed; crew cab, short bed; crew cab, standard bed.
