2007 Chevrolet Silverado Half-Ton Crew Cab LTZ 4x4
2007 Chevrolet Silverado Half-Ton Extended Cab Short Box LT 4x4

Chevrolet's Silverado has been a staple truck to the rugged working/adventuring community for many years. Built on a proven strong frame, it lives up to its ad champaign "like a rock" and also handles with a surprising smoothness. A well built industrial vehicle, the Silverado lineup is also trying to be environmentally friendly as well with an available Hybrid Vortec 5.3L V8 engine for the Silverado.

Though the Silverado has fallen behind its competitors in recent years due to a saturated competitive market, industry experts expect the new enhancements to this year's 2007 redesigned Silverado to boost interest and sales.
