Duramax 6.6-liter Eight Cylinder Turbo-Diesel Engine

The Chevrolet Silverado HD comes standard with a gas-powered 6.6-liter V8 producing 401 horsepower and 464 lb-ft of torque. An available Duramax diesel 6.6-liter V8 offers more power, delivering 470 horsepower and 975 lb-ft of torque. Both engines are paired with an Allison 10-speed automatic transmission and are available with either rear- or four-wheel drive.

The Chevrolet Silverado HD offers strong towing and payload capabilities. The gas-powered model can tow up to 17,400 pounds, while the Duramax diesel version increases that capacity to 36,000 pounds. For payload, the most capable Silverado 3500HD, equipped with a regular cab and dual-rear-wheel axle, can carry up to 7,442 pounds.

What are the interior features of the Chevrolet Silverado HD?

The Chevrolet Silverado HD offers a functional and spacious interior with user-friendly controls. Crew-cab, short-box models have a longer wheelbase than the previous generation, providing more passenger space, and rear-seat passengers get dedicated climate vents and controls. Features include heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a heated steering wheel, a head-up display, and ample storage, including a large center console bin, an optional under-seat compartment, and rear-seat cushion storage bins. It combines durability with comfort and convenience.

It has a volume and tuning knob, physical buttons, and voice commands to complement the touchscreen. The system supports trailer profiles for maintenance tracking and remote control via a smartphone app. A 13.4-inch touchscreen comes standard on LT, LTZ, Trail Boss, High Country, and ZR2 models, which also offer an integrated wireless smartphone charging pad.

How does the Chevrolet Silverado HD 2500 Trailboss Drive?

I have two perspectives to answer this question:

As a fairly tall, family man, with three kids—two in boosters—size certainly isn’t a concern here. This is a massive truck. It’s not exactly a family car, though it could be, but good luck squeezing into your average grocery store parking spot. Inside, space is very comfortable for the driver and any passenger, front or back. My youngest was in awe, and all he could say was, “Look at my dad’s big truck!” For daily driving, it’s overkill, but if you buy it for its purpose-built features, you’ve got the ultimate tool.

As a car enthusiast, I’m 100% a truck guy. This thing was love at first sight. The sheer size alone is impressive. If I bought one, I’d leave it exactly as it is—no tire upgrades, no suspension tweaks. It’s just right. And honestly, I’m seriously considering one… for overkill reasons.

Final thoughts

If you are in the market for a workhorse that can take a beating, look no further. Chevy nailed it with this truck. The facelift is spot on, and the price makes sense.
