2014 Silverado 1500 – First impressions
I had my son’s car for repair (Pontiac G6) again! Anyhow it had to stay overnight so the dealership handed me the keys to a 2014 Silverado to get home. It was a Crew cab 4x4 LT with 5.3L and the Z71...

You forget that most truck buyers are buying a life style and probably don't need or even use a truck like a truck. The mfgs have to appeal to thoses buyers as well as the buyers like us, here, who will use them like trucks.
I guess in the end we get nicer interiors then we need and they get more capability then they will ever use.
Ding Ding Ding we have a winner!!!
Most people buying a 150/1500 truck will never come close to hitting their payload numbers. So Ram feels that if the main customer is never going to need the payload then put that cost into the refinement and options.
With the 2500 using coil springs you can still get a GM style ride but will have the payload for towing and hauling.
Need more stability jump into a 3500 SRW or DRW for the real HD towing and hauling. Right tool for the job!
I have said it a hundred times, why would someone pay for a 250/2500 and only get a 150/1500. But as I have also said, it's your cash buy anything you want!
