New Features
Advanced Trailering System
This towing application is displayed inside the truck cabin. Here you can create profiles for individual trailers and track their mileage, maintenance, temperature, and tire pressure.
This system presents checklists to review before departure and enables lighting tests to make sure everything is a green light before your journey. Hill Start Assist helps your truck and trailer successfully complete mountainous expeditions, and the Trailer Sway Control balances the force of strong winds, allowing your trailer a steady ride.
Multi-Flex Tailgate
This newly designed tailgate offers 6 main features on the Chevy Silverado 2500. Check out the primary gate, which is opened through the key fob, a switch on the vehicle interior, or a button on the gate. The primary gate load stop provides protection for the end of the tailgate so that items don’t fall off the bed.
There is an inner gate that folds down, allowing for further access into the bed of the truck. This inner gate creates a full-width step that holds up to 375 lbs. The inner gate also contains a load stop that provides a second level of protection in addition to the primary gate. This inner gate also features a work surface for one’s computer or work plans.
Strong Visibility
