Save The Best For Last Chevy's Silverado 1500 Will Be The Last 1/2 Ton Truck With a Diesel

Ford has already killed the F150 diesel, and RAM has indicated this will be the last year for the EcoDiesel so if you're looking for a new 1/2 ton and want the only diesel option, here it is. Well, OK, one of two since the GMC Sierra will still get it as well. The consolidation makes sense because this 3. 0L diesel engine has always been the best in the segment. lawnmowerdude: In my opinion, I don t think the previous gen interior was bad. It just wasn t a big enough improvement over the previous gen. It was more of a lateral move instead of vertical move on Chevys part.
I have a 2018 Silverado and I thought about upgrading it to a 2021 but I didn t think the interior was nice enough to warrant the upgrade. In fact, there are a few things in my 2018 I like over the 2021. Not that I think it s bad I just didn t feel like it was any better in a noticeable way. If I bought the 2019 initially, I would ve been just fine with the interior.

6: 10 already missing the trim piece over the B pillar trim bolt. yep, it's a Chevy.
This truck is perfect for a guy with a wife he calls bae, had a 2. 65 GPA in high school, has a Mountain Dew bottle full of Skoal juice and went to tech school for welding but ended up working for a paving company swinging a shovel: )

Reviewers never mention how tow packages affect ride quality. Getting something called Max Tow Package is going to include MUCH stiffer springs and kill your daily ride quality. My F-150 has a measly 7k tow rating, tows the 4k lb camper with ease, and rides great when unloaded

I'm sick of this ridiculous overly aggressive styling on these huge vehicles. People who drive these are always riding my tail too close and intimidating. Pisses me off. Obviously the manufacturer is appealing to this. Leading to road rage incidents in many cases I'm sure.

I wasn't interested in the 3. 0 diesel so I bought the 6. 2 instead but i am interested in a 2. 8l powered truck. I'll consider the 2. 8 but not the 3. 0. I do mostly highway miles and light loads with no trailer. 2. 8 still has what 370 lb ft of torque. Plenty.

I think the RAM is now the least competitive of the big 3 half ton trucks. F150 should appeal to people that want to do truck things, and this Chevy does truck things better than the RAM, yet is almost as comfortable as the RAM.

You lost me with saying the 3. 0 EcoDissel was meant for Cadillac.
That motor was developed from an Italian company and originally made it for the Ram 1500 and WK2 Grand Cherokee, eventually adding it to the Wrangler.

Well, we all know GM is the usually the last to adapt to change. There's little market for light duty diesel pickups. all of the emissions headache and overpriced fuel for none of the actual power.

I bet most pick up truck owners would be glad to go back to basics with the far better durability and reliability of those pick ups from the 1990s.

Sedans are dead. Trucks are next in line. Inefficient, poor handling, slow, hard to find parking spot. Crossovers are the real deal man.

With diesel fuel costing 2 more per gallon than gasoline, hard to justify the economy of a diesel engine when you figure in fuel costs.

Alex, With all the horsepower and torque today's hybrid pickups generate, is it any wonder Diesels are disappearing?
