The mega-capable 2024 Silverado HD makes light work of heavy jobs, and sometimes heavy work of light jobs.

. They can tow more, usually feature an optional diesel engine, and are at least $10,000 more expensive than their smaller counterparts, even moving into the six-figure range. But when a driver needs to move a piece of construction equipment, or a race trailer, only heavy duty will do.has been updated for 2024 to better tow, haul and drive comfortably. Buyers have a choice of a 6.6-liter diesel or gasoline V8. All models now come with a ten-speed automatic transmission.

Inside the cabin buyers are offered a 13.4-inch-diagonal infotainment display along with a 12.3-inch-diagonal configurable driver information center behind the steering wheel. It uses new graphics pioneered on the Silverado 1500 and physical controls for volume and climate. The crew cab version tested here had back seats as big as a luxury sedan with space for two child seats and room for a third passenger in between.

After using the power step boards to get into the pickup, it exhibited an unsurprising amount of bounce around town when unloaded. Engineers have to balance loaded and unloaded comfort more carefully in the HD trucks as more people tow with them than with a full-size truck.The 6.6-liter gasoline V8 makes 401 horsepower and 464 pound-feet of torque in this application, which feels brisk without a load, as the does the ten-speed transmission, seamlessly swapping gears often in the background.

An 8,000-pound Bobcat skid steer and a 2,000-pound trailer were attached during the test. The farming rental store in mid-Michigan specifies a"2500 truck or bigger" to rent any of the heavy equipment. This is where the cleverness of the Silverado 2500 really came into play. It offers up to 14 different camera views, most used for towing and hauling.
