*Veteran’s Day 11/11 - Thank you to all of you past and present serving for every one of us. My father and father-in-law are both Veterans so it hits right at home!* *I mistakenly said the G80 is electronic, but it’s actually Mechanical* As if 12/19 they are still selling these for this price. Check their website yourself and watch their short video here: ruclips.net/video/yLDCUKc8n7Q/видео.html Screenshot if price on one of the trucks: photos.app.goo.gl/SJtpv4utAx3gzKPL7 I don’t work for them and have no incentive - that’s just for proof of pricing. So what do you think of this lower trim Silverado? With pretty much all of my press loan trucks being expensive and high-end..I wanted to show you a cheaper trim and this one priced at $28k intrigued me. It's pretty bare bones..but does what it needs to! *Thanks for watching and have a great day!*
Prime Autotainment Thank you for showing us the base trims on some vehicles. I actually preferred this Custom over a High Country because it has less features to break. Like the size of the screen vs 12 inch ones which are ridiculous. The column mounted shifter is LOVELY in a truck! I love that. It really isn’t that bare bones like a F-150 XL, I’d said it’s a perfect basic truck for a every day driver.
Thanks for watching Dustin! It’s refreshing to see vehicles that are a little more simple like this with all the new tech and high prices out there. It still has more stuff than my ‘06 had lol 😁. Have a good one my friend!
No point in a sunroof for a truck, it adds more sound inside the cab, which trucks these days are usually built to be quiet. And I do love that this truck didn't have push button, makes it harder for the truck to be stolen unless they hotwire it.
You would probably like the W/T trim even more, they're even cheaper and have the rubber mat instead of carpet on the floor so you don't have to worry about spilling stuff. I've seen a couple quad cab, 5.0l, 4x4 F-150s in XL trim, same story. They still have the typical power windows, locks, and mirrors, A/C, and bluetooth stereo.
I'm still driving my '05 Silverado that I bought new 15 years ago. I like these new ones a lot, very nice looking and good features, but my truck is still running good, so no need for a new one just yet. Like you though, I much prefer the lower trim models without as much useless junk installed.
@@trevorjameson3213 I was the same way with my 2004 Canyon. But I made the jump to this truck a couple of months ago and absolutely love it. Didn't need all the crazy extras.
I just drove home a 2019 NEW model Silverado 1500 WT crew cab 2WD V6 home. To be exact $24,588 + tax, under 30k OTD already included $8K rebates after tax.
Sorry this truck is too simple. I need my truck to have a huge TV screen built into the dash to stay on top of my Facebook and Twitter feeds. Glove Box that doubles as a fridge to keep my Vegan meals cold. Floor mats that double as foot warmers. A drivers seat that vibrates to remove the aches from my butt after sitting in StarBucks for hours. A 2000 watt sound system so me and my friends can chill listening to Kenny G while we view the Stars through our massive moonroof, which also doubles as a solar panel to charge the electric motor that gets me 1 extra mile per gallon.
@BKD Vickers I'd like more care for the customers than everything. My used truck came with that garbage aftermarket warranty which eventually the truck did have problems and the warranty basically wanted me to fuck off. Really I rushed buying the truck didn't even realize the warranty was there but I laughed when I saw what they cover. Basically they say anything that happens with the vehicles they warranty will be considered a pre existing condition and won't repair it. That warranty cost me $2k and I feel bad for a guy at work I know he got the warranty for almost $4k.
I have the 2021 custom 4wd with the terrain mode and tow package i plan on putting a level kit on it bigger wheels tinted windows and led bulbs it will look like a higher end truck but way cheaper and honestly most the add ons the better trims have people hardly use and chrome is ugly af
It’s not just inflation though. Stuff has also been marked way up because they know that there are people willing to pay for it. When they know there’s people willing to pay for it, it makes those who arent willing to pay for it have to bite the bullet and pay for it anyway.
Guitar Prepnand1 right. And even then, adjusted for inflation, that’s less than 10,000 dollars today, which would be a steal for a new truck. I would love it if trucks were so much simpler like back in the day.
The Redneck Ram Has that been known to cause reliability issues? I’m actually curious, as I am thinking of switching to Chevy from Ram. Don’t know too much about their engines yet, but am looking at a 6.2 half ton
@@clumsybeing9028 I don't know much about the 6.2 engine. But all my research on the 5.3 wasn't looking good for the longevity of them with that system. I saw many different people posting about needing rebuilds all around 100k. I did see people say that one way to help stop that problem is to look into getting the computer flashed to stop that system so it runs in v8 mode all the time without ever dropping to v4. Honestly I don't know first hand how good these newer ones are. I know the vortec 4.8l v8 in my 2004 Silverado is a good engine that is hard to kill. Mine's been ticking probably for 100k miles now and is still fine. I've got 155k on it right now. My dad has an 01 with the same engine and an oil pressure problem that the previous owner tried to have fixed by having the oil pump changed but to no avail. That guy sold it to my family for $2000 because he was scared the engine was done for, and that was way back like like 07 or 08. My dad now has over 200k on his and still running strong. Only thing ever replaced on his has been the fuel pump. On mine I've only had to replace the alternator *excluding normal maintenance items So if it is true that doing that reflash to disable cylinder deactivation basically takes the engine back to being like what was used in our generation of trucks then you should have a good engine. I think the newer ones also include some variable valve timing and stuff that mine doesn't have though. The whole reason I looked at getting a different truck instead of the Chevy back at the beginning of 2017 when I bought a new one was that I was scared of the engine........and then I ended up with a damn potential wreck of an engine anyway because I bought a Ram EcoDiesel.....so yeah......maybe I should have bought a damnable ecoboost ford or something.
I love the simplicity of it. Less electronics means less to go wrong. The only changes I'd make are 4wd & tow pkg. I have a 14 Silverado LT w/5.3lL that has a few more options than this & at 71k miles, has been extremely reliable. I keep the AFM from activating by use of a device that plugs into the OBD port. Too many reports of owners of even late model Silverados still having collapsed lifters caused by AFM. Overall, still love the truck.
A 25k truck for 28k. What’s the point? MSRP isn’t actual value. NO ONE ever pays msrp. It’s just a psychological tactic dealers use to make you think you are getting a bargain. I bought a 2018 Z71 4x4 LT with v8 and leather seats for 34,573 new in 2018 before tax. Msrp was 51k. Give a price you’ll pay to dealer DO NOT listen to their bs just leave your number and tell them to make a better deal and LEAVE. The car salesman said, “We can’t let a 51k truck go for less than 40k”. When I signed the paperwork i said, “This is a 35k truck” lol
You’re literally the only dealer who’s taking people with mobility issues into consideration and I greatly appreciate that! I’ve got an AWESOME 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT in black and chrome. And I’m lucky enough to have bought it with two (Very) much needed side step bars. My wife is 5 foot 2, in 5 foot 6. And I also have chronic pain and joint issues. I can’t recall my dealership mentioning anything about mobility despite me showing up to the Chev dealership with my cane that day. I’m comfy as heck in my truck. And I got very lucky with our Silverado (After trying out 4-5 different trucks, and passing on them due to comfort issues). But it would be AWESOME to see a nod to those with mobility issues in every truck rundown. Even if it’s a small thing like “Hey, got back pain? Well here’s a grab bar and power seats to help you out”. Just wanted to let you know how much I’d appreciate that if I were buying something from you. I bet you found this thing a home pretty quickly! But again, thanks for looking out for folks like me who aren’t as “sturdy” as others. Take care and great job showcasing this vehicle!
Hey Parker thanks for letting me know! Glad to hear it was helpful but sorry to hear about the pain and joint issues. I work for a physical therapy Clinic and do this stuff in the side so I always think about my patients when getting in and out of vehicles. Glad to hear you’re liking your 2015! I appreciate you stopping by and take care! 👍
This is exactly like mine, I can honestly say that for someone who isn’t a fan of rattling noises while driving it’s nice not having storage inside the armrest. My height is perfect so the up/down on the seats isn’t an issue for me but it could be for others. Switched from a 2014 single cab so this was a huge change for me, I love this truck. Unfortunately I had to purchase steps for it because it was tough for the wife to get in. Very good review 👍🏽
Thanks for the detailed review. I was considering this trim due to price, but after your video have determined that it does not have the features I want/need. Thanks again
@@Iegend17 I'm saying if it's a daily why pay more for expensive options when all a damp tailgate does is lower slower and a push button start is pointless and you could wear gloves instead of having a heated steering wheel
Great job on making us aware that the custom trim level will still work really well and a solid value too! It makes great sense to just buy what you need. Excellent review. I still like the trail boss better, but would also consider a custom trim and keep the savings to fund the gasoline for one year. Keep up the reviews, they really help.
Great review! I can appreciate the improved ride, better sound deadening and brake performance. Those were so badly missing on both my 2008 and 2013 that I owned before. Thinking about a truck again and it's nice to know there's an option that gives you the quality for comfort without being $60damnk!
I was just about to post about how your video is the only one I've seen that mentions anything for those with mobility issues and then I seen your comment about veterans so that makes sense. Thank you for your support of veterans and im sure others outside of the veteran community with mobility issues appreciates those annotations as well.
Since I was a kid hanging out on my uncle's ranch, I have always loved Chevy. Sadly, after having bought a 2004 Silverado brand new at the time and later a 2012 Chevy Sonic. I've learned that whatever you save on the price you'll eventually pay for in repairs. I do most of the work myself but I've still spent about $8K between both vehicles in repairs and parts. So sad to see such a great company go down in quality. This truck is beautiful and despite my disappointment in the brand, it still turns my head. However, I would gladly pay more upfront if it means it won't start falling apart at 60K miles. My cousins still drive a late 70's era Chevy truck on the ranch. Nothing is built to last like that anymore.
AS REAL AS IT GETS considering the fact this is a 2020 model that just got on the lot...it’s marked down $11k right away and sales Tax in a new car here is 6.25%...plus ttl - nope not happening
Left the dealership yesterday with one. I got the 5.3, and it has the tow package, auto open tailgate, and 4wd. It’s exactly what i wanted in a truck. Power windows, 4wd, cruise control. Chevy wasn’t my first choice, but so far I’m happy. (I’m in Canada and i left mine at 46k)
And NO CHROME BUMPER. I can’t stand the big ugly chrome bumper. With other brands you’re paying a premium for a painted bumper. Standard for this trim and i loves it
Dude you’re the first person ever that’s listed a real price and not MSRP bs. Subscribed. I feel these people killed the truck market bragging about their $85k truck that’s really $25k off sticker. Everyone thinks I’m crazy when I tell them about a thing called rebates.
I love the tech but I agree with you on that. I sorta love the simple look. I mean you can always add to it. To me much of the tech added in cars nowdays are cool when you first get it but when it wears off.........
People kill me with this outdated interior shit. I get it, but most of us didn't own the previous model years. Like myself. LoL. If its supposed to be a work truck...... Either way, The comment is waaaayyy over rated.
Yep!! More to break. I plane to keep my truck for years and years. If anything, downgrade it to even more work. Too many people believe in paying off then trading in. Always paying for a vehicle.
Wow 🤩 this is a lower end truck?? Ultra fine inside and out it being this nice 👍🏻 I would not know how to act in a more elaborate truck,Silverado has got to be still the greatest vehicle ever
A guy at my work bought one of these silverado customs, just like the one in your video, for a little over 26k. We're in Dallas, and you can get some great deals in the surrounding towns.
That 4.3 V6 is actually pretty surprising in terms of its performance. I had a 2010 5.3 V8 Sierra and got a 4.3 V6 2019 Sierra . I don't see much difference between the two engines. The V6 feels more like a small V8. Fuel economy, however, has been disappointing on my 19 Sierra. It seems to consume fuel at a rate of 14 mpg in the city. The dealer said it should improve as the engine breaks in but I doubt. I think the big hood and bulkiness of the truck creates too much wind resistance leading to more fuel consumption. For this reason, I'd recommend the 5.3 V8 as the motor of choice in the Sierra/Silverado.
I got a 2020 4.3. I like the truck but hate the fuel management (active or dynamic?). When I step on the gas the rruck hesitates b4 gaining good acceleration. This is my 1st truck so I'm learning as I go. Ive been wondering if I should trade it in for a 5.3 custom...or should I keep it and get a tune or something for the fuel management?
@@chriscooper8210 If you don't lose too much on the trade in and it fits your budget, I'd move up to the 5.3. You get better power, better resale value, and the same if not better fuel economy. I just traded in my 19 Sierra for a 19 Silverado with the 5.3. I got a good deal on the trade in. The 5.3 is much more satisfying and so far, it's getting better fuel economy than the 4.3. I have the 8 speed with the Dynamic Fuel Management. Your 4.3 has active fuel management which means it can go from 8 to 4 cylinders. However, I think the GM engineers did not program the 4.3 to stay in V4 for very long.
I just bought a dealership demo 2020 Custom Double Cab/std bed, very similar to the one you reviewed. Your review was spot on. Mine's Satin Steel (gray). Paid about $32k, includes tow package, locking diff, remote start/tailgate and floorliners. As you said, plenty of power, like the stance, lots of room. Basic, but just what I needed. Only thing it needs is lumbar support, USB/Aux port into the stereo and maybe an option for black 18" wheels with All-Terrains. So far I've added tonneau cover, under backseat storage and bed mat all from Weather-Tech and darkened the front window tint a bit. Next up is running boards/nerf bars so my 4'11" wife can get in easier! LOL
Somehow my 20 yr old co-worker "kid" got suckered into paying 45k for the 19 "custom" Silverado. The most stock looking truck on the parking lot, dim yellowass headlights, remote start, led bed lights, chrome exhaust tip which he says they told him its custom, and he swears that them stock ass 20 inch wheels cost over 2k 🤦🏻♂️. Cloth manual seats, 2wd, no two package and a small v8. But hey its got remote start and he can see it on his phone 😂🤷🏻♂️. Poor bastard!! Me and the guys had told him to look around for a clean 1-2 yr used, low miles, premium model truck, you get all the fancy at a better price than new, but he said he wanted to pop his cherry, long story short, he said he's looking for a part time side job cause he pays over $650 a month and his insurance is high.
Dang what a shame. Sounds like a horrible deal to regret lol...and that insurance is insane. Poor kid lol. Maybe he'll learn to spend his money more wisely next time once he gets out of debt
@@spookycrane9318 🤣😂🤦🏻♂️ happens to best of us. Luckily for me, when i was younger a friend of mine's dad owned a small local dealer and told me all about the big time dealership bs they use to try to catch all the young horny new drivers, especially the first time buyers. So i knew not to fall for that stuff.
Jae kamacho lmao sounds like most kids out here in Texas , I’m 21 and i bought me a 2014 F-150 fx4 instead of the new ones , paid 18k cash instead of buying a new one for 40 k , smartest move I ever made
I had a 1998 Chevy Cheyenne and I believe that this would be about the same thing. My truck was pretty quiet for me but I think there's been improvement in 23 years the way you talk, that 2020 truck pulls more from the bumper the 98 could only pull 5000 lbs. Thank you
Good review Nolan!! Thank you for thinking of us with mobility issues! This truck is nice but a little too plain but good price. Not everyone wants the fully loaded options. Give me a V8 with power windows and seats and I'm good. Keep the good reviews coming!
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. My friend @Andie The Lab channel suggested I add that in since physical therapy is my day job 😁. That type of truck sounds fantastic to me lol. A friend and I always wished they’d bring back an old body style truck with a solid engine/frame and just be simple...as long as it was cheaper lol. Like another 1970 truck rebuilt with maybe a couple modern things...won’t happen though lol
I had a feeling you either worked with people with issues or had a close family member that does. I'm afraid "regular"trucks are a thing of the past. They have become mainstream. Can't imagine one of these as a "farm" truck. I don't think they would last long at all.
I had a 87 custom deluxe. You are correct V6 engines these days are just as if not more powerful than V8 of the day. Also how crazy is it to say a turbo 4cyl is an option in a full size 🤯🤯🤯
If the big 3 really wanted to they could make the v8 king again but are putting all this time and attention to v6 and 4 bangers. And also slap a turbo on a v8 still makes way more power than a v6 let's be real now
Andrew K. NI I can only imagine lol...good thing the roads around me are pretty wide open lol but I’m not sure if it would fit in my garage 🤷♂️. I think it’s a good value too..especially thinking back to the Low end ford Ranger I saw earlier for $35k. Full size rules around here where I live...although usually unnecessary lol
Speaking of adjusting foot pedals, our 2019 2500hd, the steering wheel, foot pedals, and seat belt height all adjust. I move the petals every time I drive it cause he is 6’1” and I’m 5’1”.
But... it's a Chevy. And I own an 06 Silverado LT Ext Cab with the 4.8. It's been a good truck. Bought it off-lease in 2006 (it was built in July 05) for $23k OUT THE DOOR with 13,000 miles on it. But there is no way I'd buy anything GM is putting out right now.
Christian Morales my 2015 Silverado needed a new transmission.. while my dads 2007gmc Sierra classic has 260k miles with no issues and that’s his work truck.. it sucks, but new gm vehicles are trash.
New gms arent even remotely trash. Most reliable truck one can buy. Ive owned many. Still have never had a single issue with any of my 15 and newer gms
rye rye Even my dads friend who owns a transmission shop and loves gm said gm transmissions on the newer trucks are just failing left and right. He literally has parts stocked in his shop because he uses them so often. He even had a 2018 Denali in there because the dealer refused to pay the full price for the transmission repair and thus the guy wanted a second opinion/see if he could get it cheaper and that truck had 15k miles! Even as I go through forums you see many costumers complaining about their gm transmissions and of course there is even a class action lawsuit against gm for the transmission.
Bought mine in February truck has no issues have close to 9,000 miles have the trailer package and LED bed lights and easy release tailgate hauled two cars already and full bed of sand when working on a project at the house very pleased with the V6 highly recommend
I'm in Texas as well, I got the same truck in summit white with the soft gate, 36k. The V6 is slightly underpowered, and thirsty. I'm gonna try some tune options and cool air intake, hopefully that won't burn me too bad at the pump. Good truck, can't wait for the first road trip! Great review, if I don't see more videos of people's experiences with this 4.3 I'm gonna post my own.
That aint happening lol. I agree that would be awesome to have as an option but its hard to find a sports car with manual nowadays, let alone a pickup.
Gm has to have the torque converter to be able to differentiate between misfire and rough road . besides the manual trans only has a 12000 mile warranty on clutch parts on other gm vehicles.
@@tomclose6643 doesn't work when you're sitting on top of ice. At my college that parking lots are pretty neglected when weather hits, not by anyone's fault just because they're super full and nearly impossible to safely plow out snow without hitting anyone's car. When moving out for Christmas break someone with a 2WD F-150 was sitting on top of an ice patch with both his rear tires, the front tires were on solid ground. He only got out because while he hit the gas someone was pushing on the front. Almost got in a wreck. Is it supper common? Probably not. But if I'm going to buy a full-sized truck, I want a V-8 with four wheel drive.
Nice thorough review...thank you. It sounds like a great deal when you compare truck prices. Unfortunately we have gotten so used to these outrageous, astronomical truck prices that when you hear $28k, it almost sounds too good to be true. However, at the end of the day you're buying a 2wd 6 cylinder stripped down box full of plastics. I'm not bad mouthing the truck or it's quality, I'm just stating what you're $28k will buy you. On a positive note I think the truck looks great.
Thank you Leo! The crazy part is the actual MSRP was like $11k more lol but I was surprised they offered such a big discount I. A brand new 2020 model 🤷♂️
Orlando Hernandez nothing that I know of lol they had probably 10 trucks just like this at that price. It’s a dealer in a smaller town outside the dallas area so they have a lot of competition, therefore they tend to have these kind of deals
Walked into a Chevy dealer asking about a WT crewcab truck , lol, salesmen looked at me all stunned and replied, ooohhh we dont carry the WT models here, everyone buys the LT and up with all the bells and whistles, why do you want a stripped truck anyways........ um for work and hunting and shit you bone head... lol got my WT somewhere else..
Panther Martin77 : I bought a used 2014 Silverado Z 8-5 package. Great truck. Has the 4x4 shifter which is OK as I prefer the 4x4 auto setting. Great mpg for a truck, 13 in town, and I got 26 on the highway at 60 mpg with the variable speed engine. Only complaints is it has carpet and two rust spots on the bed corners by the tailgate top corners.
Thanks for reviewing these run of the mill trim levels. Everyone else always has the top of the line ones. This is a good looking truck at an attractive price. Not sure it’s worth the as tested $37k though. In the Chevrolet, I’d definitely go with the 5.3L, which is still no power house compared to the EcoBoost engines. I’ve heard that the 2.7 turbo has horrible gas mileage, so I’m not sure what the point of that engine is. My main issue with these is the overall reliability. My bosses brother just bought a 2020 GMC Sierra Denali 2500 Diesel two weeks ago Friday. The day after he picked it up (with less then 200 miles on it) the motor died. A $90k truck with less then 200 miles on the clock! After having it towed in, he was informed that they can not fix it due to everything being on back order. They refused a loan vehicle as well. Unfortunately, he has had to get an attorney involved. Any how, keep up the good work on these reviews Nolan!
That’s a shame about the Turbo...no surprise though. Even the V8 didn’t do as well as I hoped compared to the last gen I had last year...I didn’t care for last gen overall either though lol and I remember the issues you talked about. That’s so terrible about that 2500...just awful. Especially not being fixed. What a crappy situation. Thanks for stopping by man! I reached out to a Subaru Dealer in another town that’s building a Subaru dealership here....hoping to get my foot in the door with the people here. That would be awesome to have them in town! Tried calling and emailing the Subaru lady in charge of press loans and no response or anything but I’m gonna keep trying! 😕
Prime Autotainment ugh...the people at Subaru suck. Calling Dave Erickson.... He needs to put in a good word! 😆 Thinking about upgrading in a few months, but can’t decide if I should go ‘17 Outback or ‘16 NX200t, or just get an ‘18 Legacy. The Legacy is definitely the least expensive route to get the equipment I want, but I like the idea of the higher ride height of the other two. I like the ‘18 Camry too. 🤔😫
Dmitry B Unfortunately. He stopped at a light, truck cut off and wouldn’t restart. This was the day after he bought it. Been 2 weeks and they are saying all the parts are back order because of the GM shutdown.
I love my 2.7, i avg 18.5 driving mostly city/hwy. do i think its really any better than a v8 in the mpg dept? Around town definitely, on the hwy not really. It does have a lot more balls than the 5.3. That being said the 5.3 gets better mileage than other competitors. Hemis are just hogs and the coyotes arent bad , but definitely not as good as the 5.3. But the 5.3s are slow even after a tune compared to the others
Chris L Work Pick Ups should be available as just that; simple, tough, no nonsense. Its mainly due to the manufacture wanting to charge more. I would still only buy the last of the simple Nissan Frontiers without power accessories. These can be discounted down to 15,000 range. These ridiculous 30 thousand dollar or more trucks are hardly needed for light duty or occasional truck, land scaping, etc.
"I could put another head up here and still have room." Overall good review on the truck. Nice discounted price too. How much are they coming off the uper grade models. I'll be in the market for the 2021.
I got a 2020 trailboss custom for $33,700 and it has the 4.3 liter and I like it. Only reason I bought it was the price. I can't see paying $50,000 for a pick up don't care what's in it
If poor long-term reliability is what you're looking for, the Silverado won't disappoint. If you want an American truck nowadays, Ford is the way to go
This is chevys attempt to compete with the f150 stx package (basically a xl with more interior and exterior features) that is around the same price, that everyone (including me owns). Still doesn’t beat it. My truck has a 2.7 eco boost, I get 20/26 mpg average 22-22.7mpg. I have all the same features as that truck(which isn’t saying much). I have the sync 3 with apple CarPlay which is a much better radio, plus a middle console, fog lamps, and steering wheel controls. Also think my truck looks better. Chevys are just too expensive, I couldn’t pass up the value I got with my ford.
Seen how many issues that eco boost has had?.....even my neighbor had problems.....naturally aspirated motors are way to go I bought mine in August and ford couldnt match even close to deal I got....just depends on location and timing.....fords deal was a work truck, chevys deal was similar to ford XLT loaded....all depends

I don’t work for them and have no incentive - that’s just for proof of pricing.
So what do you think of this lower trim Silverado? With pretty much all of my press loan trucks being expensive and high-end..I wanted to show you a cheaper trim and this one priced at $28k intrigued me. It's pretty bare bones..but does what it needs to!
*Thanks for watching and have a great day!*
Prime Autotainment Thank you for showing us the base trims on some vehicles. I actually preferred this Custom over a High Country because it has less features to break.

Mayck Colares thanks for watching! 👍
This won’t make a good daily driver at a reasonable price.
No push button start, sunroof, very little chrome...dark headliner .... .....simple truck & crew cab....my kind of truck!! Love it 👍😍
No point in a sunroof for a truck, it adds more sound inside the cab, which trucks these days are usually built to be quiet. And I do love that this truck didn't have push button, makes it harder for the truck to be stolen unless they hotwire it.
You would probably like the W/T trim even more, they're even cheaper and have the rubber mat instead of carpet on the floor so you don't have to worry about spilling stuff. I've seen a couple quad cab, 5.0l, 4x4 F-150s in XL trim, same story. They still have the typical power windows, locks, and mirrors, A/C, and bluetooth stereo.
Yeah actually look pretty. Would look better in all black.
I'm still driving my '05 Silverado that I bought new 15 years ago. I like these new ones a lot, very nice looking and good features, but my truck is still running good, so no need for a new one just yet. Like you though, I much prefer the lower trim models without as much useless junk installed.
@@trevorjameson3213 I was the same way with my 2004 Canyon. But I made the jump to this truck a couple of months ago and absolutely love it. Didn't need all the crazy extras.
Let’s everyone call a Chevy dealership & say I have $28,000 to spend, they will show you all the Malibu’s
Edward Autrey 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😂
Nah, $28k you can get yourself a good Camaro!!
I just drove home a 2019 NEW model Silverado 1500 WT crew cab 2WD V6 home. To be exact $24,588 + tax, under 30k OTD already included $8K rebates after tax.
show us the vehicle window sticker then
I agree with that or they want to sell you a long bed standard truck!!
A hugging seat is important! Especially if a person doesn't get hugs at home😂
#facts
The hugging keeps me from going postal one day
Hahaha, TOO TRUE! I used to have a Lexus with hugging seats. Closest I ever got to having an Asian girlfriend.
@@bhud1972 My truck was made in Mexico so I guess I got myself a little señorita.
Or maybe one that eats too many tacos since she's a dually.
Sorry this truck is too simple. I need my truck to have a huge TV screen built into the dash to stay on top of my Facebook and Twitter feeds. Glove Box that doubles
as a fridge to keep my Vegan meals cold. Floor mats that double as foot warmers. A drivers seat that vibrates to remove the aches from my butt after sitting in StarBucks
for hours. A 2000 watt sound system so me and my friends can chill listening to Kenny G while we view the Stars through our massive moonroof, which also doubles as
a solar panel to charge the electric motor that gets me 1 extra mile per gallon.

@Tony Alston How dare you insult the soy farming community because of a bad modern trend.
@BKD Vickers I'd like more care for the customers than everything. My used truck came with that garbage aftermarket warranty which eventually the truck did have problems and the warranty basically wanted me to fuck off. Really I rushed buying the truck didn't even realize the warranty was there but I laughed when I saw what they cover. Basically they say anything that happens with the vehicles they warranty will be considered a pre existing condition and won't repair it. That warranty cost me $2k and I feel bad for a guy at work I know he got the warranty for almost $4k.
LMAO!!
I personally think the custom is a nice truck even for a lower end model. It’s for the basic person who just wants a truck with the engine and box.
Plus the less features it has means less things that can go wrong with it later on. Maybe
I have the 2021 custom 4wd with the terrain mode and tow package i plan on putting a level kit on it bigger wheels tinted windows and led bulbs it will look like a higher end truck but way cheaper and honestly most the add ons the better trims have people hardly use and chrome is ugly af
and no turbo
I remember when you could get a brand new ford f-150 for under 20k.
Trucks are too expensive these days.
it just our money worth less.inflation sucks
I remember you could get a f100 for 2000.00. But that was in 1975. 😱
It's not just trucks to me most all vehicles are expensive now thanks to inflation
It’s not just inflation though. Stuff has also been marked way up because they know that there are people willing to pay for it. When they know there’s people willing to pay for it, it makes those who arent willing to pay for it have to bite the bullet and pay for it anyway.
Guitar Prepnand1 right. And even then, adjusted for inflation, that’s less than 10,000 dollars today, which would be a steal for a new truck. I would love it if trucks were so much simpler like back in the day.
I like how this one has less shit to go wrong on it
except for the afm which will ruin that engine by 100k
The Redneck Ram What’s that?
@@clumsybeing9028 active fuel management. mainly the cylinder deactivation portion on it.
The Redneck Ram Has that been known to cause reliability issues? I’m actually curious, as I am thinking of switching to Chevy from Ram. Don’t know too much about their engines yet, but am looking at a 6.2 half ton
@@clumsybeing9028 I don't know much about the 6.2 engine. But all my research on the 5.3 wasn't looking good for the longevity of them with that system. I saw many different people posting about needing rebuilds all around 100k. I did see people say that one way to help stop that problem is to look into getting the computer flashed to stop that system so it runs in v8 mode all the time without ever dropping to v4.
Honestly I don't know first hand how good these newer ones are. I know the vortec 4.8l v8 in my 2004 Silverado is a good engine that is hard to kill. Mine's been ticking probably for 100k miles now and is still fine. I've got 155k on it right now. My dad has an 01 with the same engine and an oil pressure problem that the previous owner tried to have fixed by having the oil pump changed but to no avail. That guy sold it to my family for $2000 because he was scared the engine was done for, and that was way back like like 07 or 08. My dad now has over 200k on his and still running strong. Only thing ever replaced on his has been the fuel pump. On mine I've only had to replace the alternator *excluding normal maintenance items
So if it is true that doing that reflash to disable cylinder deactivation basically takes the engine back to being like what was used in our generation of trucks then you should have a good engine. I think the newer ones also include some variable valve timing and stuff that mine doesn't have though. The whole reason I looked at getting a different truck instead of the Chevy back at the beginning of 2017 when I bought a new one was that I was scared of the engine........and then I ended up with a damn potential wreck of an engine anyway because I bought a Ram EcoDiesel.....so yeah......maybe I should have bought a damnable ecoboost ford or something.
It sure is Nice Driving my 2020 Chevy Silverado
Hi squidward
I love the simplicity of it. Less electronics means less to go wrong. The only changes I'd make are 4wd & tow pkg. I have a 14 Silverado LT w/5.3lL that has a few more options than this & at 71k miles, has been extremely reliable. I keep the AFM from activating by use of a device that plugs into the OBD port. Too many reports of owners of even late model Silverados still having collapsed lifters caused by AFM. Overall, still love the truck.
A 25k truck for 28k. What’s the point? MSRP isn’t actual value. NO ONE ever pays msrp. It’s just a psychological tactic dealers use to make you think you are getting a bargain. I bought a 2018 Z71 4x4 LT with v8 and leather seats for 34,573 new in 2018 before tax. Msrp was 51k. Give a price you’ll pay to dealer DO NOT listen to their bs just leave your number and tell them to make a better deal and LEAVE. The car salesman said, “We can’t let a 51k truck go for less than 40k”. When I signed the paperwork i said, “This is a 35k truck” lol
Great advice for a lot of people.. smart
Man 👍
You cover a lot of details which auto reviewers generally skip mentioning. Love it!!
You’re literally the only dealer who’s taking people with mobility issues into consideration and I greatly appreciate that! I’ve got an AWESOME 2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT in black and chrome. And I’m lucky enough to have bought it with two (Very) much needed side step bars. My wife is 5 foot 2, in 5 foot 6. And I also have chronic pain and joint issues. I can’t recall my dealership mentioning anything about mobility despite me showing up to the Chev dealership with my cane that day. I’m comfy as heck in my truck. And I got very lucky with our Silverado (After trying out 4-5 different trucks, and passing on them due to comfort issues). But it would be AWESOME to see a nod to those with mobility issues in every truck rundown. Even if it’s a small thing like “Hey, got back pain? Well here’s a grab bar and power seats to help you out”. Just wanted to let you know how much I’d appreciate that if I were buying something from you. I bet you found this thing a home pretty quickly! But again, thanks for looking out for folks like me who aren’t as “sturdy” as others. Take care and great job showcasing this vehicle!
Hey Parker thanks for letting me know! Glad to hear it was helpful but sorry to hear about the pain and joint issues. I work for a physical therapy Clinic and do this stuff in the side so I always think about my patients when getting in and out of vehicles.
Glad to hear you’re liking your 2015! I appreciate you stopping by and take care! 👍
This is exactly like mine, I can honestly say that for someone who isn’t a fan of rattling noises while driving it’s nice not having storage inside the armrest. My height is perfect so the up/down on the seats isn’t an issue for me but it could be for others. Switched from a 2014 single cab so this was a huge change for me, I love this truck. Unfortunately I had to purchase steps for it because it was tough for the wife to get in. Very good review 👍🏽
Thanks for the detailed review. I was considering this trim due to price, but after your video have determined that it does not have the features I want/need. Thanks again
Yeah it’s fairly bare with features. Thanks for watching!
Just bought 3 for my company, thanks for the vid
I watch a lot of these reviews and I just think he does a great job and appreciate the effort for us!
Thank you very much!
This is the way to go....u dont need all the junk they put in trucks these days......
Cuz you guys are old lol.
jackburner8107 You mean a hitch for all that towing it’s rated for? 🤣 all this thing can do as a truck is with its box, and it’s the short one!
@@Iegend17 do you really NEED a damp tailgate or a huge screen with a heated steering wheel and a push button start? No. You dont.
Gage Jernigan I personally would if I am going to daily it. But if it was a second vehicle for me then I don’t care tbh
@@Iegend17 I'm saying if it's a daily why pay more for expensive options when all a damp tailgate does is lower slower and a push button start is pointless and you could wear gloves instead of having a heated steering wheel
Great job on making us aware that the custom trim level will still work really well and a solid value too! It makes great sense to just buy what you need. Excellent review. I still like the trail boss better, but would also consider a custom trim and keep the savings to fund the gasoline for one year. Keep up the reviews, they really help.
Thank you Stephen!
Great review! I can appreciate the improved ride, better sound deadening and brake performance. Those were so badly missing on both my 2008 and 2013 that I owned before. Thinking about a truck again and it's nice to know there's an option that gives you the quality for comfort without being $60damnk!
I was just about to post about how your video is the only one I've seen that mentions anything for those with mobility issues and then I seen your comment about veterans so that makes sense. Thank you for your support of veterans and im sure others outside of the veteran community with mobility issues appreciates those annotations as well.
Glad you noticed it. I work at a physical therapy clinic too so I always keep my patients in mind with that 👍. Thanks for watching!
I sold chevys for 8 year's. not now. that's a great walk through. good job. I think that's a nice truck.
Since I was a kid hanging out on my uncle's ranch, I have always loved Chevy. Sadly, after having bought a 2004 Silverado brand new at the time and later a 2012 Chevy Sonic. I've learned that whatever you save on the price you'll eventually pay for in repairs. I do most of the work myself but I've still spent about $8K between both vehicles in repairs and parts. So sad to see such a great company go down in quality. This truck is beautiful and despite my disappointment in the brand, it still turns my head. However, I would gladly pay more upfront if it means it won't start falling apart at 60K miles. My cousins still drive a late 70's era Chevy truck on the ranch. Nothing is built to last like that anymore.
I dare anyone show an "Out the door" invoice for under $30,000. Not going to happen.
AS REAL AS IT GETS considering the fact this is a 2020 model that just got on the lot...it’s marked down $11k right away and sales Tax in a new car here is 6.25%...plus ttl - nope not happening
AS REAL AS IT GETS that big discount is the the new bait & switch tactic
Yeah it's bullshit! For 28k out the door I'll leave my house right now to buy it! I'll even take it without the bumpers exhaust or wheels!
27,999 X .0625(tax)= 29,750 + 150 dealer fees + 70 registration etc = 29,970. Less than 30k
25k lol
I had 3 different chevy with the V6 liked them and always got very good mileage and now I have a 2011 with 5.3 and it gets fantastic mileage
I'm actually impressed by. Simple at a great price and beautiful.👍
Handles that Hunt county farm road pretty well.
Left the dealership yesterday with one. I got the 5.3, and it has the tow package, auto open tailgate, and 4wd. It’s exactly what i wanted in a truck. Power windows, 4wd, cruise control. Chevy wasn’t my first choice, but so far I’m happy. (I’m in Canada and i left mine at 46k)
And NO CHROME BUMPER. I can’t stand the big ugly chrome bumper. With other brands you’re paying a premium for a painted bumper. Standard for this trim and i loves it
This is actually a very nice beginners truck. The color is great for the design. Great review Nolan 👍
Agreed on both of those! Thank ya sir! 😁👍
MoNo K beginner at what...
Very good job on the review on the Silverado the best I've seen yet .
Thank you!
Nice job of explaining everything, thanks brother.
Thank you!
Honestly I think this is a great balance of technology and simple-ness. This truck has what I need. Note that this is in my opinion
Dude you’re the first person ever that’s listed a real price and not MSRP bs. Subscribed. I feel these people killed the truck market bragging about their $85k truck that’s really $25k off sticker. Everyone thinks I’m crazy when I tell them about a thing called rebates.
Glad to hear it, thank you! Vehicles I get from a dealer I’ll make sure to list the actual list price too 👍
The rear g80 locker is really a must especially in a 2wd, I have a rear g80 locker in my 92 Chevy C1500
The "outdated interior"it's ok... It's even better.. this will be useful years later... Too much technology will have more problems at the future..
I love the tech but I agree with you on that. I sorta love the simple look. I mean you can always add to it. To me much of the tech added in cars nowdays are cool when you first get it but when it wears off.........
People kill me with this outdated interior shit. I get it, but most of us didn't own the previous model years. Like myself. LoL. If its supposed to be a work truck......
Either way, The comment is waaaayyy over rated.
Yep!! More to break. I plane to keep my truck for years and years. If anything, downgrade it to even more work. Too many people believe in paying off then trading in. Always paying for a vehicle.
Wow, thank you for suggesting the headlight. Great tip. 👍👍😄
Wow 🤩 this is a lower end truck?? Ultra fine inside and out it being this nice 👍🏻 I would not know how to act in a more elaborate truck,Silverado has got to be still the greatest vehicle ever
A guy at my work bought one of these silverado customs, just like the one in your video, for a little over 26k. We're in Dallas, and you can get some great deals in the surrounding towns.
Thanks for reviewing this model. Im one of those ‘regular’ people that buy ‘regular’ people trim levels. Lol
The only “Affordable” vehicle you can get is one you can pay with cash and not be in debt!
Absolutely agree!
Not Daz Ypu are dreaming. Most people have to finance.
Oh stop
Dave Ramsey would agree
Dave Ramsey at his finest!!!!!!!
Really appreciate you considering folks with mobility issues.
I work at a Physical Therapy clinic so I think about my patients and anyone that could benefit from that! 👍
That 4.3 V6 is actually pretty surprising in terms of its performance. I had a 2010 5.3 V8 Sierra and got a 4.3 V6 2019 Sierra . I don't see much difference between the two engines. The V6 feels more like a small V8. Fuel economy, however, has been disappointing on my 19 Sierra. It seems to consume fuel at a rate of 14 mpg in the city. The dealer said it should improve as the engine breaks in but I doubt. I think the big hood and bulkiness of the truck creates too much wind resistance leading to more fuel consumption. For this reason, I'd recommend the 5.3 V8 as the motor of choice in the Sierra/Silverado.
I got a 2020 4.3. I like the truck but hate the fuel management (active or dynamic?). When I step on the gas the rruck hesitates b4 gaining good acceleration. This is my 1st truck so I'm learning as I go. Ive been wondering if I should trade it in for a 5.3 custom...or should I keep it and get a tune or something for the fuel management?
@@chriscooper8210 If you don't lose too much on the trade in and it fits your budget, I'd move up to the 5.3. You get better power, better resale value, and the same if not better fuel economy. I just traded in my 19 Sierra for a 19 Silverado with the 5.3. I got a good deal on the trade in. The 5.3 is much more satisfying and so far, it's getting better fuel economy than the 4.3. I have the 8 speed with the Dynamic Fuel Management. Your 4.3 has active fuel management which means it can go from 8 to 4 cylinders. However, I think the GM engineers did not program the 4.3 to stay in V4 for very long.
Yes. I bought an lt with the allstar package for 27 grand. It was 1 year old with 14k miles. Clean
Bought brand new 2019 RST 4X4 all star with conv package fir 35k.....I couldnt find used for what I paid new....go figure
Great review! You're right the seats are not only rock hard they are much smaller seat bottoms than previous gen.
I just bought a dealership demo 2020 Custom Double Cab/std bed, very similar to the one you reviewed. Your review was spot on. Mine's Satin Steel (gray). Paid about $32k, includes tow package, locking diff, remote start/tailgate and floorliners. As you said, plenty of power, like the stance, lots of room. Basic, but just what I needed. Only thing it needs is lumbar support, USB/Aux port into the stereo and maybe an option for black 18" wheels with All-Terrains. So far I've added tonneau cover, under backseat storage and bed mat all from Weather-Tech and darkened the front window tint a bit. Next up is running boards/nerf bars so my 4'11" wife can get in easier! LOL
Somehow my 20 yr old co-worker "kid" got suckered into paying 45k for the 19 "custom" Silverado. The most stock looking truck on the parking lot, dim yellowass headlights, remote start, led bed lights, chrome exhaust tip which he says they told him its custom, and he swears that them stock ass 20 inch wheels cost over 2k 🤦🏻♂️. Cloth manual seats, 2wd, no two package and a small v8. But hey its got remote start and he can see it on his phone 😂🤷🏻♂️. Poor bastard!! Me and the guys had told him to look around for a clean 1-2 yr used, low miles, premium model truck, you get all the fancy at a better price than new, but he said he wanted to pop his cherry, long story short, he said he's looking for a part time side job cause he pays over $650 a month and his insurance is high.
Dang what a shame. Sounds like a horrible deal to regret lol...and that insurance is insane. Poor kid lol. Maybe he'll learn to spend his money more wisely next time once he gets out of debt
Jae kamacho Ima be honest I fell for the same shit except I got an fj cruiser ‘14 fresh out of high school
@@spookycrane9318 🤣😂🤦🏻♂️ happens to best of us. Luckily for me, when i was younger a friend of mine's dad owned a small local dealer and told me all about the big time dealership bs they use to try to catch all the young horny new drivers, especially the first time buyers. So i knew not to fall for that stuff.
Jae kamacho lmao sounds like most kids out here in Texas , I’m 21 and i bought me a 2014 F-150 fx4 instead of the new ones , paid 18k cash instead of buying a new one for 40 k , smartest move I ever made
As a 20 year old, that is probably the dumbest thing he could’ve done with his money-from a 20 year old
Beautiful, this is more my style. I hate blingy trucks. Great review
Thank you!
Very thorough review. Nice job!
Thank you!
Very detailed review!
I laughed and mocked the new design when they first showed it off but now I’m liking it.
I still like my 2018 Z the most. I have several 2020 WT They’re fine
The body looks pretty sharp!
That’s a beautiful truck😩😍big boy style I never own a truck but now after this giving Chevy a call
I had a 1998 Chevy Cheyenne and I believe that this would be about the same thing. My truck was pretty quiet for me but I think there's been improvement in 23 years the way you talk, that 2020 truck pulls more from the bumper the 98 could only pull 5000 lbs. Thank you
Good review Nolan!! Thank you for thinking of us with mobility issues! This truck is nice but a little too plain but good price. Not everyone wants the fully loaded options. Give me a V8 with power windows and seats and I'm good. Keep the good reviews coming!
Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. My friend @Andie The Lab channel suggested I add that in since physical therapy is my day job 😁. That type of truck sounds fantastic to me lol. A friend and I always wished they’d bring back an old body style truck with a solid engine/frame and just be simple...as long as it was cheaper lol. Like another 1970 truck rebuilt with maybe a couple modern things...won’t happen though lol
I had a feeling you either worked with people with issues or had a close family member that does. I'm afraid "regular"trucks are a thing of the past. They have become mainstream. Can't imagine one of these as a "farm" truck. I don't think they would last long at all.
I had a 87 custom deluxe. You are correct V6 engines these days are just as if not more powerful than V8 of the day. Also how crazy is it to say a turbo 4cyl is an option in a full size 🤯🤯🤯
Very nice! I’m sure most people will still spend extra for the V8 but still. I know, it’s hard to believe a 4 banger is really optional lol...hmm 🤔🤔
Prime Autotainment I know the 4.3 is an awesome engine. It’s been a proven engine
If the big 3 really wanted to they could make the v8 king again but are putting all this time and attention to v6 and 4 bangers. And also slap a turbo on a v8 still makes way more power than a v6 let's be real now
@@shawnlopas8998 I never said that. I was referring to V8 motors of the past. To me turbos are another moving part to break
Great review Nolan. That truck is huge compared to our cars here in the UK. Looks great value for the money. :-)
Andrew K. NI I can only imagine lol...good thing the roads around me are pretty wide open lol but I’m not sure if it would fit in my garage 🤷♂️. I think it’s a good value too..especially thinking back to the Low end ford Ranger I saw earlier for $35k. Full size rules around here where I live...although usually unnecessary lol
Speaking of adjusting foot pedals, our 2019 2500hd, the steering wheel, foot pedals, and seat belt height all adjust. I move the petals every time I drive it cause he is 6’1” and I’m 5’1”.
Thanks for reviewing a lower trim truck! Please do it with the other brands too.
But... it's a Chevy. And I own an 06 Silverado LT Ext Cab with the 4.8. It's been a good truck. Bought it off-lease in 2006 (it was built in July 05) for $23k OUT THE DOOR with 13,000 miles on it. But there is no way I'd buy anything GM is putting out right now.
pughconsulting great engine that 4.8 V8. Had it in my old 2000 Silverado
Why’s that??
Christian Morales my 2015 Silverado needed a new transmission.. while my dads 2007gmc Sierra classic has 260k miles with no issues and that’s his work truck.. it sucks, but new gm vehicles are trash.
New gms arent even remotely trash. Most reliable truck one can buy. Ive owned many. Still have never had a single issue with any of my 15 and newer gms
rye rye Even my dads friend who owns a transmission shop and loves gm said gm transmissions on the newer trucks are just failing left and right. He literally has parts stocked in his shop because he uses them so often. He even had a 2018 Denali in there because the dealer refused to pay the full price for the transmission repair and thus the guy wanted a second opinion/see if he could get it cheaper and that truck had 15k miles! Even as I go through forums you see many costumers complaining about their gm transmissions and of course there is even a class action lawsuit against gm for the transmission.
Bought mine in February truck has no issues have close to 9,000 miles have the trailer package and LED bed lights and easy release tailgate hauled two cars already and full bed of sand when working on a project at the house very pleased with the V6 highly recommend
John Aguilar glad to hear it!
I'm in Texas as well, I got the same truck in summit white with the soft gate, 36k. The V6 is slightly underpowered, and thirsty. I'm gonna try some tune options and cool air intake, hopefully that won't burn me too bad at the pump. Good truck, can't wait for the first road trip! Great review, if I don't see more videos of people's experiences with this 4.3 I'm gonna post my own.
Bring back the full size manual transmission!
That aint happening lol. I agree that would be awesome to have as an option but its hard to find a sports car with manual nowadays, let alone a pickup.
@@rocksjoshua Jeep did it with their pickup.
@@BoopSnoot Because that's Jeep, thats what they do.
Gm has to have the torque converter to be able to differentiate between misfire and rough road . besides the manual trans only has a 12000 mile warranty on clutch parts on other gm vehicles.
Replace it with a racing clutch.

Lost me at 2 wheel drive. Wouldn’t work where I live.

put sand bags in bed 2- 75lbs will work fine , drive like a sensible person all good
Hell yes!
@@tomclose6643 doesn't work when you're sitting on top of ice. At my college that parking lots are pretty neglected when weather hits, not by anyone's fault just because they're super full and nearly impossible to safely plow out snow without hitting anyone's car. When moving out for Christmas break someone with a 2WD F-150 was sitting on top of an ice patch with both his rear tires, the front tires were on solid ground. He only got out because while he hit the gas someone was pushing on the front. Almost got in a wreck. Is it supper common? Probably not. But if I'm going to buy a full-sized truck, I want a V-8 with four wheel drive.
Agreed! I would NEVER buy a 2 wheel drive truck!
Great review
Thanks for the video
That is a lot of truck for $30k!
Thanks for the review!
You're right too much truck for that price but the bad thing the engine is a V6 to power for that nice truck
Had the 4.8 V8 in my 2007 GMC Classic, great engine.
Funny you described it as a great engine, bc, them 4.8s have adopted the nickname 4.great.
I have 4.8 too. It's a 500k engine
Great for boosting as well. Short stroke and small bore with large bore spacing in an iron block = strong and reliable.
Really well done video, thanks!
Thank you!
I used to own a 2000 GMC Safari with the 4.3 ltr V6. If it’s the same one, it’s a great engine and has lots of power/torque and very dependable.
Mentions 2WD:
Aight imma head out
So far it seemed like a good review though maybe he should do the RST models next if he hasn't yet.
Lmao
This is GREAT, a GOOD TRUCK WITH OUT ALL THAT EXTRA JUNK.
I just want a basic truck with basic thing without all the high tech crap that usually goes wrong after a couple years and affordable to fix.
I'm not sure why this video from 11/2019 showed up on my feed in May of 2022, but wow wouldn't it be nice to buy a truck for this price today!
I can appreciate Chevy for making this options available.
Lovin’ it.
The simpler the better!
Nice thorough review...thank you.
It sounds like a great deal when you compare truck prices. Unfortunately we have gotten so used to these outrageous, astronomical truck prices that when you hear $28k, it almost sounds too good to be true. However, at the end of the day you're buying a 2wd 6 cylinder stripped down box full of plastics. I'm not bad mouthing the truck or it's quality, I'm just stating what you're $28k will buy you. On a positive note I think the truck looks great.
Love the look of the new Forssanyota Silverados.
Very good video. Sometimes basic is king especially when your budget is not.
Thank you Leo! The crazy part is the actual MSRP was like $11k more lol but I was surprised they offered such a big discount I. A brand new 2020 model 🤷♂️
Prime Autotainment :). That is mind blowing.
Thanks for stopping by Leo!
@@PrimeAutotainment what was the special occasion for the discount?
Orlando Hernandez nothing that I know of lol they had probably 10 trucks just like this at that price. It’s a dealer in a smaller town outside the dallas area so they have a lot of competition, therefore they tend to have these kind of deals
That truck looks beautiful!
No it doesn't

Thank you very much!
Walked into a Chevy dealer asking about a WT crewcab truck , lol, salesmen looked at me all stunned and replied, ooohhh we dont carry the WT models here, everyone buys the LT and up with all the bells and whistles, why do you want a stripped truck anyways........ um for work and hunting and shit you bone head... lol got my WT somewhere else..

I bought a used 2014 Silverado Z 8-5 package. Great truck. Has the 4x4 shifter which is OK as I prefer the 4x4 auto setting. Great mpg for a truck, 13 in town, and I got 26 on the highway at 60 mpg with the variable speed engine. Only complaints is it has carpet and two rust spots on the bed corners by the tailgate top corners.
Amen. Should have told him cause you are not a Snowflake.
@@jimsvo4486 Awomen. 😂😂
😅
Buy one of these and wait a few years. Find a wrecked one in a junkyard and swap out the front for the expensive version ;)
2003 Silverado 150,000 miles Crew Cab 4X4. Paid for and runs fine. You don’t need a new truck.
MY 2002 With 112,000 no 4 wheel drive just 2 wheel drive, PAID FOR. WORKS JUST FINE.& NO *UCKING PAYMENTS, I agree with you my friend
I love that you included the tow rating.
Germain Gonzalez I know right? No hitch or trailer wiring must save you a ton of weight for towing capacity lol.
Great looking truck! Inside and out. Fantastic price for a full size truck. Good review..Thanks.
Thank you!
Thanks for reviewing these run of the mill trim levels. Everyone else always has the top of the line ones. This is a good looking truck at an attractive price. Not sure it’s worth the as tested $37k though. In the Chevrolet, I’d definitely go with the 5.3L, which is still no power house compared to the EcoBoost engines. I’ve heard that the 2.7 turbo has horrible gas mileage, so I’m not sure what the point of that engine is. My main issue with these is the overall reliability. My bosses brother just bought a 2020 GMC Sierra Denali 2500 Diesel two weeks ago Friday. The day after he picked it up (with less then 200 miles on it) the motor died. A $90k truck with less then 200 miles on the clock! After having it towed in, he was informed that they can not fix it due to everything being on back order. They refused a loan vehicle as well. Unfortunately, he has had to get an attorney involved. Any how, keep up the good work on these reviews Nolan!
That’s a shame about the Turbo...no surprise though. Even the V8 didn’t do as well as I hoped compared to the last gen I had last year...I didn’t care for last gen overall either though lol and I remember the issues you talked about.
That’s so terrible about that 2500...just awful. Especially not being fixed. What a crappy situation. Thanks for stopping by man!
I reached out to a Subaru Dealer in another town that’s building a Subaru dealership here....hoping to get my foot in the door with the people here. That would be awesome to have them in town! Tried calling and emailing the Subaru lady in charge of press loans and no response or anything but I’m gonna keep trying! 😕
Prime Autotainment ugh...the people at Subaru suck. Calling Dave Erickson.... He needs to put in a good word! 😆 Thinking about upgrading in a few months, but can’t decide if I should go ‘17 Outback or ‘16 NX200t, or just get an ‘18 Legacy. The Legacy is definitely the least expensive route to get the equipment I want, but I like the idea of the higher ride height of the other two. I like the ‘18 Camry too. 🤔😫
How Does It happen 2020 Sierra 2500 Died Engine Less than 200 miles! Are you joking me!?
Dmitry B Unfortunately. He stopped at a light, truck cut off and wouldn’t restart. This was the day after he bought it. Been 2 weeks and they are saying all the parts are back order because of the GM shutdown.
I love my 2.7, i avg 18.5 driving mostly city/hwy. do i think its really any better than a v8 in the mpg dept? Around town definitely, on the hwy not really. It does have a lot more balls than the 5.3. That being said the 5.3 gets better mileage than other competitors. Hemis are just hogs and the coyotes arent bad , but definitely not as good as the 5.3. But the 5.3s are slow even after a tune compared to the others
New to the Channel, great video! Subbed!
Thank you very much!
I hope more truck makers offer these more simple options.
Wow. We need more simple work tricks without a bunch of options and plain steel wheels, 4 cylinder manual, with a sturdy seat for under 15 grand.
Chris L Work Pick Ups should be available as just that; simple, tough, no nonsense. Its mainly due to the manufacture wanting to charge more. I would still only buy the last of the simple Nissan Frontiers without power accessories. These can be discounted down to 15,000 range. These ridiculous 30 thousand dollar or more trucks are hardly needed for light duty or occasional truck, land scaping, etc.
Since I have over 620k miles on my 07 Silverado. I have been kinda browsing the new Silverado line!! Nice video!! Thanks!!
Greg B most likely a long list of issues. Most of them coming from the transmission
Mine is older but only 410K ,runs great, uses no oil, still looks good.
I have to add oil but just a minor inconvenience!
"I could put another head up here and still have room."
Overall good review on the truck. Nice discounted price too. How much are they coming off the uper grade models. I'll be in the market for the 2021.
I got a 2020 trailboss custom for $33,700 and it has the 4.3 liter and I like it. Only reason I bought it was the price. I can't see paying $50,000 for a pick up don't care what's in it
If poor long-term reliability is what you're looking for, the Silverado won't disappoint. If you want an American truck nowadays, Ford is the way to go
This is chevys attempt to compete with the f150 stx package (basically a xl with more interior and exterior features) that is around the same price, that everyone (including me owns). Still doesn’t beat it. My truck has a 2.7 eco boost, I get 20/26 mpg average 22-22.7mpg. I have all the same features as that truck(which isn’t saying much). I have the sync 3 with apple CarPlay which is a much better radio, plus a middle console, fog lamps, and steering wheel controls. Also think my truck looks better. Chevys are just too expensive, I couldn’t pass up the value I got with my ford.
Seen how many issues that eco boost has had?.....even my neighbor had problems.....naturally aspirated motors are way to go
I bought mine in August and ford couldnt match even close to deal I got....just depends on location and timing.....fords deal was a work truck, chevys deal was similar to ford XLT loaded....all depends
Much better, I usually walk down the silverado "aisle" for some good laughs when reading the stickers.
I got it rides great! Definitely improved from 2018
I saw one In the south side of Houston for around $24k~ a few days ago
Fucking hell I was just in Houston looking for a truck a couple hours ago
What’s the point in only lining the tailgate? That makes zero sense.
@@carlovesfam6069 I have this truck and it only came with the tailgate lined, not the bed itself. Dumb idea
Save on cost
Excellent video great price and still a great Silverado
Thanks Charlie!
