2015 Silverado opinions

DH is wondering what the experiences, thoughts pros & cons etc for the 2015 Silverado. We're interested in 1500 crew cab, 2 wheel and 4 wheel. LT2 or LTZ. Any complaints... praise etc.

thanks

  • I don't own a 2015, but I have had a series of Silverados and love them. The 5.3 is bullet proof. It's great for a daily driver.
  • I agree with the idea of going right to a full size. We've mostly had Suburbans. We had a mid-size SUV for 8 years and I'm so glad we went back to a full size truck.

    We have an '08 Sierra, my mom and her husband last year bought a '14 Silverado. Love these trucks. My wife loves driving ours. And mileage isn't that bad either. I get 17 in the city pretty easily and it's just the 4 speed, and my mom is getting pretty much the same. It's going to depend a bit on driving style. As a daily driver we find it just as practical as any other vehicle we've ever owned.

    Yes, compare to an F150, Tundra, and a RAM. We found out of all of them the Silverado/Sierra and F150 interiors were the most comfortable. Out of the 4 the Tundra seems really outdated on the inside. The RAM has a beautiful interior but uncomfortable seats. But that's my take on it.
  • You might compare a Toyota Tundra to it and see. Both daughters bought Tundra for better overall vehicle.

    May not tow anything. We're thinking daily driver. By the time you buy a smaller suv...or a car... you might pay more than you would for a similarly equipped truck. A truck has more capabilities than say a Traverse or Explorer.
