- My review of my 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. It has the 5.3L v8 gas engine, with 4x4, and is the crew cab LT model. I run through what I like/don't like about my truck after 6 months of ownership. I also walk you through my purchasing experience and give you tips to come out on top!

It’s a beautiful truck, this design has really grew on me, not crazy about the Sierra or the new F150 front end or the new RAM, Rebel looks good and the TRX IS JUST AWESOME, but 100k is way to rich for my pocket. Great review
Great advice in Buying a truck. Wish I would've heard this Advice before buying a new vehicle myself...
That's a big reason why I made this video, to help others out in the buying process. But at least now we know right?
I have a similar set up with my 2020 RAM 1500 Laramie in the bench front seat (very versatile) and no sunroof (no mechanicals to malfunction, leak, or rattle). I recommend including heated front seats and steering wheel (feels so luxurious in cold weather).
That locking under front seat Ben is great for your fire arm !
You're right about onstar I had it for 3 years and never used it. I just brought a 2020 silverado RST standard cab and may not need onstar either .
Good advice. I agree you really need to look things over to make sure you get everything you want and not miss anything like that low range Differential. That would have pissed me off enough to take it back the next day.
I have the same exact truck. Totally agree with the whole purchasing process. I hate the auto stop feature. I hit that button as soon as I get in the truck. My only big complaint is driving at night and the headlights and how their designed. The lights only light up the road directly in front of you and not beyond. Hard to explain. Good overall review I agree with everything.
that's just led lights get some hid lights aftermarket
''it sure is nice driving my 2020 chevy silverado''
I agree on the 4lo. I was pissed when I realized this. However, no one to blame but myself I guess. I should have done my research. On your concern with the auto stop/start, not need to worry about the wear and tear. Separate starter for that that is built with like 20x the amount of starts of your actual starter in mind. Additionally, it prevents oil from draining out of the engine during these mini stops which negates the engine wear. And lastly, it only does it once at operating temperatures. So outside of the annoying delay and bump, not much to worry about that I can see.
Definitely a principle of the matter about the 4 low, just that a 4x4 normally has one. But thanks for looking into the starter and providing more info on it!
So I have the exact same truck except its a 4cyl 2.7t. Since it has a turbo, do I want it shutting off? Wouldn't that cook my oil?
This is like an advertisement for my 2020 RAM 1500 5.7L Hemi eTorque. 12 volt battery easy to access. 48 volt battery in back wall of cab and eTorque seamlessly restarts the engine and applies low end electric torque to get the truck rolling. Air dam retracts when parking and extends down at speed for aero dynamics. Wind tunnel tested with grill louvers and swept back mirrors for major aero improvement. 4 RAM dealers in my area all very competitive, got $10,000 off msrp without trying very hard. Extended warranty was very reasonable. Class leading interior and 8.4" or 12" screen. 2H Auto 4H 4L and easy to use dial shifter integrated with electric parking brake. Friendly upfront dealership experience. RAM recently leap frogged Chevy to be #2 in full size truck sales behind Ford. MotorTrend's Truck of the year 1500 in 2019 and 2500 in 2020. High tech, great connectivity, luxurious, smooth coil spring rear, ultra quiet interior with vibration cancelling and insulated glass, smooth buttery power, affordable Mopar parts, and fun to accessorize. Traded in my F-150 Platinum which I liked, but I Love my new RAM. No regrets! These are great times to buy a new truck. Enjoy your Silverado!
thanks I appreciate the honesty. I needed an unbias opinion from an owners pov for this truck for my college essay. You helped a lot ! I will also be presenting my essay to my other half to explain why me getting a chevy silverado is not a waste of money lol !!!!
The little truck pic. Is ALL wheel drive feature for slippery conditions , like snow or gravel road, when you don't need full time four wheel , but a safety assist
It sure is nice driving my 2020 Chevy Silverado
Coming close to 50k miles myself
Beautiful!
Yeh I hardly ever use 4x4 low on my truck either. But I want the option lol. That 4x4 auto is really handy tho. Wish my 2015 Silverado had that.
i can remember only once actually needing 4 low, but I've needed 4 high plenty. So it honestly doesn't seem like it's necessary but it's definitely one of those "principle of the matter" situations Haha
awesome advice. straight to the point.
thanks!

Hi squidward
Hi squidward 🧽
I liked the review, but... for me, i thought this through when I bought my truck and so i am going to disagree with you on the extended warranty. I did get it, it was much less, our dealer used a different service from GM extended warranty, so it might be a lot cheaper. But for me it was less than 2000 dollars...on a 40 to 50 K truck, it was 8 years or 140,000 miles. The standard warranty on the Silverado was between 3 years 36k miles, and 5 years 60k miles, depending on powertrain (5 years) or everything else 3 years. So for an extra 1700 plus I got a warranty for 8 years. It would really suck to be making full payments on this expensive truck after say, 5 years and have the transmission or motor go out... So making payments and then pay another 5K to fix the motor or transmission, or two grand on something else... makes no sense. And the law of averages say, something is going to happen. Also, buying the extra warranty up front, means you can finance it... Not buy it outright after 3 or 5 years after you purchase the truck... And it does go up in price when you buy it later on, so that actually negates interest if you finance it.... That being said, I want the warranty to cover the period i am making car payments.... You're better off to get the extended warranty upfront. UNLESS you plan on trading the vehicle off in a few years.
Excellent review. Very informative. Thanks.
I. Have a lt I agree with you
I didn't realize this gen had an option of a single speed transfer case. Going to look at a bunch of trucks tomorrow and after taking a second look at my list that automatically removed 3 of them from it. Are you still enjoying the truck 3 years later? Thanks for the video!
Yup still loving my truck. No real issues beyond basic maintenance. Little over 40k miles at this point.
taking the valence off wont lower you gas mileage its fine
I got screwed then, the final price I got was 48K for a 2021 4x4 Z71 Texas edition.
everybody gangsta till you hear “Hi Squidward😊”
3.0 diesel seems to be a beast up to this point lol
I've been curious how everyone likes them. Did you get the 3.0 diesel?
@@Handy-Mann I love it, I got a 3.0 diesel on my sierra at4. i get around 27 miles to the gallon and it has decent power.
It’s pronounced “stealership”.
Nice review!
Too true!
Now i can afford a 2003 chevy silverado 2500hd lol
Quick question. I followed you link for the under rear seat storage and if only stated 17-18 models only, so is that indeed the one you got? Also, what percentage window tint did you go with?
Nice....... they do have a ton of options but you will never be able to find the one you want......... an LT with the 10 Speed impossible....... if you move to the LTZ you’ll get it........ I like this truck but I wound up getting a RAM......... cheers........
LTZ doesnt have the option for a 10 speed, at least yet. You will need to get LT trail boss or a 6.2 for the 10 speed. I wish it was standard on the 5.3 though, the 8 speed is pretty bad.
These trucks down the road have direct injection problems and lifter problems. Chevy is replacing 2023 engines now. Ford & Chevy ain't what they used to be.
Just curious, did you own Chevys before? What dealer was it? Did you look at any other brand? Thanks..
Yes, I've owned both a second gen silverado and an s10. Those were both prior to starting this channel though. I looked into other brands and even test drove the Ram ecodiesel. That truck was about the same price as this Silverado, however I felt the Silverado was more reliable.
2023 Silverado top of the range here in Australia, 192,000
Beautiful truck, I have the 2019 all Star Silverado Edition. In Satin Steel Metallic. I paid just above $34,000.00 with the added 6" wheel to wheel step bars, that I bought at the time of purchase. I did everything you said should be done while buying this truck..yes They tried to wear me down too... I did not give in. I know I got excellent deal and a great interest rate... I installed a bypass for the auto stop feature. About $95.00 from AutoStopEliminator.com it retains the memory from the last switch setting, works flawlessly.. I also made a 6 month review, I showed everything I could think of..on my RUclips channel. I'm loving everything about this truck. Especially the front end..I love the look. My Mpg's have been no less then 14.6 and no higher then 23.1 on average close to 17.0 to 19.0..I do have a led foot, I'm used to driving a sports car...
You got a Silverado for $34.00? What a deal! 😂😂
how much did you pay out the door if you dont mind. ?
sorry is it a 4x4?
@@makoreyflorida6528 .what are you sorry for..i got a great deal...no it's not a 4x4...Although now I wish I would have bought the Z71 4 x4. I did go back just over a month ago and bought the extended warranty....now I have piece of mind...I just installed the JLT black oil separator catch can. I read up on these direct engines. They have a problem with the (blow by) caking up on the backside of the valves. So this catch can should hopefully eliminate most of that. Installation video will be posted shortly.
@@makoreyflorida6528 The price of just the truck after the All-Star discount was $33,991.00 before tax... with the sales tax of $3,891.00, destination and DMV charges of $759.00 and the cost of the step bars $1,200.00 with install, the SKY Force Theft System was $1,500.00... grand total out the door was $4,1341.00....... without the step bars bars it would have been $40,141.00...I think I got a very good deal...
You can always upgrade the empty buttons lol
Thanks bud
Any issue with the truck since this video?
how much out the door. this is the truck I'm looking for ?
With tax title and fees I think out the door was around 43k.
Where online did you find that deal to Show the dealership?
My ford has the same
they didnt offer the 0% loan?
They did, however you can't have the 0% apr and also take advantage of the factory rebates. You can get one or the other. If you refinance right away, you'll save a couple thousand dollars in the long run by taking the factory rebates instead of the 0% apr.
Squidward traded his 2006 Honda Civic for this.
*2001 Toyota Corolla
I dealt with a Chevy dealer many years ago, looks like they haven’t change, they’re still as much of an A## as they were three decades ago..
I see an F-150 in the near future..
Wow.....for a new truck it looks like it's been rode hard and put away wet...lol.

Your whining about silly things
Damn, the interior looks like it was made by Mattel or Fisher Price..
you can tell the poor quality
I just got something similar to your Silverado lt 2020 the stock radio sucks!! @chevrolet it sound horrible! They can do better! Morons they cut corner everywhere! Como on dodge stock radios sound better! I am not asking for premium sound but come on! It sounds bad!
The 2011 and 2017 ecoboost feels faster than this. I dont want ford they suck because of the cam phaser!!
Stop saying obnoxious and wanting free stuff...
Stay far away from GM
Why? I'm looking for Truck 2 cabin 1500, which would you recommend??
