99-02 still the best looking Silverado imo.
Never buy the first year of a model redesign. Wait for the 2020 or 21 to work the bugs out.
Hey do 4 cylinder 2019 d
Have issues too or only v8 models should I get something else like a Titan SV
You are, without doubt, the most effective salesman to ever appear on You Tube!!!!!!!!!!.
Why so many damn ads? This isn’t the superbowl buddy.
Street Speed 918 New videos it does that. I had an ad every minute on one video. This one, i only had 1 ad.
Way too many ads SMH
Street Speed 918 lol I had like 4! Seriously?
He has to make money somehow cuz he won’t be selling any of these ugly ass trucks😂
Yeah really 5 ads for a video on a crap truck, wasted my time lol
The interior is not horrible. It is however horrible for the money. Spending $50K-$60K should not get you a Fischer Price interior with that outdated dash and steering wheel. It’s a solid upgrade exterior wise. But nobody can honestly say that interior is an upgrade, or even fits the price for that matter.
Totally agree.
u exactly right this is why ram won all the truck of the year awards for 2019. gm should have did much better on there top of the line trucks.
I know your comment is old and they are finally changing the interior.
So happy i scoped up a 2018 z71 when i did. I never liked this truck from day one. This video just cements my decision.
I would say, get em while you can.
me too!
I'm not your biggest fan or anything crazy, but man it takes serious balls to point out the flaws and things you hate on a product that you are selling. Most salesmen would totally breeze over those facts, especially the elephant in the room, aluminium.
Seriously, it is a credit to you Mike.
Maybe he's figuring out he's been selling substandard junk all his life lol.
Been watching you for a few months now and love all your content! I binge watch all day long at work! Just recently purchased a 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT crew cab and now I am planning to come see you in it because you have provided me with quality content and a ton of knowledge on test driving, voiding warranty, first looks into the ‘19 Silverado and much more!
Omg that instrument cluster is so old school. What In the hell was chevy thinking. Good luck selling this truck against ram and ford. Damn
Mike Hodgens the 2014-2018 instrument cluster looks a lot better
I agree. Forget the bad graphics in the center display, those gauges SUK. I think I may just be keeping my 17 for a while
I agree, that instrument cluster sucks ass
GM reused the 2007-2011 Chevy aveo LS instrument cluster, for the redesign of that truck’s instrument cluster. Only update they did was add 2 top gauges and updated the display screen. LOL
My 2013 F-150 instrument cluster looks like it’s from the future compared to this.
13:07 “where is my wife at? .... hey get out of the cars” lmao I died 💀
OMG HiLARiOUS !!!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Make commercials great again , remember when ford and Chevy pulled each other up hills and put the competitor in the bed ,BEST commercials ever.
Hell yea a motherfucking ford pulled a shit load of fall apart chebbys up that fake rock mountain in the 80's. hell still got grandpa's 84 f-250 big block 460 straight shift truck one hell of a real truck but 6 mpg lol. these chebbys won't break a tampon string.
I'd say they're not fake but you just get bad mpg
I just think they have better commercials back then versus now especially with the toolbox and dropping bricks inside of beds
I don't remember that, I've always been into vehicles.
Finally!! A cosmetic update to a great truck. Had my 1991 1500 until it died a heroic death in 2008. Switched to RAM. Looking back at a Chevy now because of the 2019 model. This looks great. Don't really care what it is made of as long as it lasts and drives well. May come up to you from Florida to shake your hand. I Was a Chevy salesman back in the 80s and sold a lot of vehicles because of product knowledge and honesty.
Good man! Keep it up.
The '14 through '16 Silverado with the the double headlights is my favorite modern design
chad harmon I think you mean the 14-15. The 16-17 are the same
It looks like a throwback to the 90s and early 2000 models. This model could have been a nice throwback to the cateye 03-06 models. Sadly, it turned into an ugly POS...
Lol the ole family truckster look?
so we can hate it more? the interior upgrades were nice and now chevy isnt a decade behind without their trizone climate controls. but these engines keep getting more and more intricate and complicated. why is it that toyota is can get away with a true V8 but none of the other brands can because of "emissions"?
11DS450XMX you mean 14-15 the 16-18 is the same.
I own a 2016 Sierra Denali. There are so many things I wish was different. I went with a buddy to look at the new Ram and the interior is so much nicer. I wish GM would step up their game and make a much nicer back seat. Example would be reclining seats, heated and cooled seats plus their back seat console is huge. Come on GM. If it's over $60,000, it should be a no brainer. Do better.
Joshua Stephens your grammar, vocabulary and articulation is around a 7th grade reading level..
Jeffrey Rogers thanks man. I appreciate the kind words.
That is true. I messed around at the dealer while my 16 3500 was in the bay for the recalls. My god is the 2018/19 Laramie 1500 beautiful inside. The body is not all there, but i do like the air up/down on the suspension. Also the factory amp type steps. Looking at these GM trucks, they were put to shame. I will say ram takes the cake on design. The 09-18 models have a timless appearance. Hard to tell unless you open the door to what year they were. This new 1500 simply blows Titan, GM, and Ford out of the water. Especially for the price.
Bought a 18 High Country 6.2L just because of what GM did to the next-generation they totally ruined the look. Time to get back to the drawing board which won't happen. Who cares about square or round fenders very disappointed time to start listening to your customers.
I bet that RAM breaks down within the first 100K miles. So you'll have a truck with a sweet interior, but can't go anywhere. I'll take the reliability of my Chevy and sacrifice a few crappy perks of the RAM.
Yes auto stop, start is horrible. I love hearing my truck idle with the flowmasters. That dash looks like my 14, crew Silverado. Hopefully they change it up.
product knowledge is a huge key factor in selling cars
as a costumer i cannot begin to tell you how many times i walked in a dealership and knew than all the sales people put together
Its hard to find someone who can genuinely answer some questions
glad you are different
i aim to buy my truck from you soon
watch for me!
5 things I hate about the new Silverado.
1. The front
2. The overall shape
3. The front
4. The interior layout
5. Did I mention the front? Hideous!
CJ HotWheels fugly af!
It’s fu@*¥ng disgusting!....
The front is super ugly! I thought they were supposed to make it look better not worse! The 2018 looks 10000 times better!!!
CJ HotWheels Also that tailgate
Fix it Fast Disagree. The current model is ugly compared to this one. The one prior to the current one is the best Silverado.
That’s a small screen for nav. Are the back seats heated or cool? The interior looks dated.
I was in NOLA a few months ago and I was in a Chevy Cruze and the auto start/stop was annoying me to no end and I was looking all over to find the off button. Thanks for confirming that.
I like the honesty. I work for a Chevy dealership and I definitely agree. Especially the instrument cluster and the infotainment screen!!
I work at a GMC dealer and I agree. When that screen started coming on the Terrains and Acadias I thought it seemed cheap and more outdated than the one it replaced! Was super disappointed to see they went to the same one for the new pickups. We haven't seen any new body style 2019s yet though so haven't seen them in person
Compare to the new ram, that interior (dash & radio) is mediocre at best.
Sharpshooter12345 that new ram Tesla screen is on point
Rams are made of butter
Grim reaper, is that a good or bad thing? Mmmmm, butter
Its just a screen though, at the end of the day it doesn't make a great truck. It's engineering is sadly not on point really, trails GM and Ford in top engines and transmissions.
Cory W. It's a redesigned 2019.. my gripe is they didn't change the interior much compared to the outgoing model. It's where you're gonna be spending most of your time... in the cabin. I like GM product's but they could have done better.
2019 New RAM 1500 has a better looking dash layout...lol
Even the previous generation Ram 1500(i think 2009-2018?) interiors are light years ahead with the uconnect technology they have versus the 2019 chevy's... rofl
yep... way better
The 2019 ram has a dashboard that won’t be beat on any other truck for another couple years plain and simple
Ram dash falls apart tho
LMAO Jay c dumb on so many levels.
Chevy Dude, would you recommend getting a 2018 Silverado right now or 18' SS Camaro ? Dealers all around me are doing some special
Went to look at the 19s Saturday and didn't like the look or seat comfort. Wound up with a 2018 6.2 that outclassed the 19s by a mile and was quieter then the 19 RAM I drove.
The Trail Boss needs the 6.2l
niyr you can get it. It’s called add 10k and get the Sierra AT4 lol. I agree though.
all Silverados need the 6.2. the 5.3 is underpowered for the truck.
And a color matched front bumper.
i want the 6.2 but it seems there all over 50k :/
niyr no it doesn’t the 5.3 is better than the 6.2 for gas mileage but the 5.3 has the cylinder deactivation and yeah I agree that does really suck
The things I hate about the Silverado...
1) Auto start/stop
2) Cylinder deactivation
3) Horrible throttle response
4) Electronic transfer case (lack of 2 speed in non Z71)
5) Terribly high gearing (3.23 and 3.42, should be 3.73 or above)
That auto start/stop is the worse feature. We have one on a 2017 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. Pushing the gas pedal to restart the vehicle is like driving a big-butt golf cart. I rather pay a $1,000 gas guzzler tax to the corrupt EPA than get stuck with this feature.
A Stanton1966 Solution, go older and do a full restore. Ill be buying a new truck, and putting my baby into the shop for a top to bottom off frame restore. Paint looks good, just needs to be buffed out. Benefit of a Tx truck. Also, only having surface rust on the frame.
A Stanton1966 you are right! My 2018 f150's worst feature is that stupid stop start!! Also the slow response 10spd tranny. Makes a twin turbo seem sluggish ...I'm going to go to a duramax HD to get away from these horrible "features"
I know what you mean. It's terrible to be brand loyal, then getting driven away from the brand due to inane features you don't want or can't use. I like Silverados. I had a LS grade in 2003 that gave me power-folding mirrors. In 2017 I had to buy a LTZ grade to get the same power-folding mirrors. Chevy should realize that more people today keep these trucks in garages and may have to retract the sideview mirrors to do this.
A Stanton1966 You are lucky to find a garage thatll fit a full sized truck. Many new home plans are nightmares. One guy i worked with as a roof and floor truss designer for these new homes had to fold his mirrors in, pull in at an angle, choke the tires and put it in nuetral to roll farwards by hand against the block. If he didnt, he would hit the wall or the door wouldnt close. Also couldnt have the ball in as the door would sit ontop. Funny part was when the door closed, there was maybe 1/4in from the wall and door. Brand new 2015 (at the time) home and his truck hardly fit. I was happy to quite that job due to idiotic architects. Who the hell puts an HVAC system over a vault on a 3 story drop with 30ft of 2ftx2ft crawl space?!?!. Anyways, GM like many manfuactures have been getting stupid. They claim to be listening to what people want, but the price gouging is horrid.
Thumbs up for your honesty and your strong product knowledge. Good job.
I agree, and I like the truck; used to have an 08 Tahoe. Looking to go back to Chevy, and the 2019 Silverado looks great!
Thanks for sharing and your channel! 👍
18 months left on my '17 Silverado lease. When can I come see you for a 2019?
Some things I hate:
1: Front Vents: Will be awful to clean mud from
2: Hood going over headlights- Just looks bad
3: Mirror Placement: It isn't a Cruze
4: Power Tailgate
5: Rear "Spoiler" on the cab
6: Hard Touch Dash: Did they not learn from the 07-14 Dash Cracking
7: Center Stack: It is DIRECTLY from a foreign 2018 Chevy Trailblazer
8: Auto Start Stop: It isn't a Spark
9: Double Glove Box: Just looks stupid
10: Gauge Cluster: I am (not) spending how much on a truck?
Tanner M #3 is the most prevalent IMO
Tanner M go 2015-2018. Stay the hell away from this generation.
Good points, #10 on your list. If you look at the Chevy aveo instrument cluster, it’s almost identical without an updated screen and missing 2 gauges at the top. Google Chevy aveo instrument cluster! GM basically using old technology and passing it off as new...
Ryan but is that on all the models or just the base? Cause the 2017 base was terrible and looks similar but was in black and white
Ryan that’s crazy! I am a lover of older, simpler technology (I drive a 2011 Impala with a 4 speed and v6), but nothing should ever be inspired by an Aveo. The neighbors baby sitter has one, and it’s in awful condition. The red has faded incredibly, door handles and trim falling off, and the brakes squeal with near new pads.
Ok about to buy a new pickup whats the best for your money In your opinion the trail boss is out of the question its a 50k dollar lt with a 2" spacer lift doesnt even have the 6.2L. Would you get the 2019 regular LT or the Z71 LT whats the price difference there also both 4wd 5.3L
The tech package looks like something from 2015 excluding the USB type c. You were spot on with that.
Thanks for helping me finalize my decision. I’ll keep my 2015 Chevy Silverado.
I'm keeping my 2005 2500hd duramax as well. It's paid off and does what I need it to do.
Thankyou for giving credit to the truckers.. kudos
Just got into the car sales business with Chevy your videos have been helpful keep it up my dude
I bought a 86 long bed k10 today I love it nothing will beat that
Failed to mention that it's the UGLIEST TRUCK CHEVY HAS EVER MADE. Been a Chevy owner for a long time, I was due for a new truck this year. I'm pretty sure I will be buying a RAM. This truck is very disappointing. 3 main things that I hate: 1 the ugly front end. Its hideous! 2 the cheap looking interior. 3 the fact that it has aluminum parts.
MrGonzalezchuey Ram is ugly too
flimsychicken Not nearly as ugly as this piece of.......
The fact that the tailgate looks like the Ford Platinum really bugs the crap out of me..
Tacoma
silverado
Taco man
The auto industry will shamelessly steal good ideas from one another.
Chevy is just trying to be more like ford every year
Love your blunt honesty Mike
Spot on observations. My only gripe about the truck is the radio. Love the cat.
funny how the dash looks like a jeep wrangler layout but with square vents
My ‘16 Silverado 2500Hd dash looks better than that. GM seriously screwed the pooch releasing that abomination. Looks like a test tube baby combo between Ford, Toyota, and Dodge. Electronic tailgate latch has got to be the dumbest idea ever.
Wild Deuce it’s just because gm can’t come up with new ideas on their own. Don’t get me wrong I drive a 97 k1500 and love it but that was the last generation truck that made sense for gm. From there on out I’d buy a ford. Not a ford guy either but when the company I work for has a large fleet of trucks and the only ones that need work steady are the gms. My ford has 225k kms on it and has had a brake job rear shocks and regular maintenance. Said truck is a 2016 eco boost. Lots of forest access roads and mine sites.
I bought a 2018 Tahoe and a 2018 Ram 2500. Love both vehicles. I will say that the quality of the backup camera on the Ram is much brighter and clearer then the Tahoe. The one simple feature that is the best though is the integrated phone holder in my Ram. A simple design that holds two phones and puts them right where you want them in the console to give you access to them. Our Tahoe is a Premier so it has much more bells and whistles but sometimes its the simple things that you appreciate the most.
I don't know if buying a silverado 5.3 awd WT or this tradesman 5.7 etorque awd.
Price is slightly better for the chevrolet that is also lighter and slightly quicker. but the ram has air suspensions, etorque technology and supposedly better comfort. That's an hard choice for me.
Consider I want a pickup but rarely haul more than 250 lbs. I just buy it because I want a fullsize suv (like the tahoe) space engine and platform in a cheaper package. Any advise for me?
Hey just found your channel but question why no videos on the suburbans?
For some reason I feel like the interior isn’t as nice as the 14-18 Silverado. My 15 Silverado LTZ has a better interior than this and it looks nicer.
You certainly aren't going to be getting all those 12-volt charging ports that the older LTZ has.
And trucks are supposed to be simple, easy to use, everything works. So I’m fine with the interior and exterior
Dieselmax 23 yea but that’s why they have different trim levels for people who are basic and don’t want many options. I prefer a fully loaded nice looking truck/vehicle especially when paying over $50,000
Jose Cleto I personally prefer a simple interior
Inflation shows its face in many ways. Siphoning money from the interior is always how it goes. Paying for the needless auto stop start's $500 cost has to come from somewhere too!!
Hey Mike! Do you have any info on the 2020 Suburban/Tahoe? Will be looking to buy that or a 2019 late next year.
We have a 2014 gmc Sierra with the leather stitched dash pad thing, but the entire dash is like that and i love it. My 2015 chevy lt single cab 3500hd has the plastic dash.
You forgot one other thing which I HATE HATE HATE! The damn antenna over the drivers seat!!!! It needs to be in the back middle like all other trucks put theres!!!!! and the interioe could be better...looks cheap!
From a replacement standpoint, they probably did that intentionally. If that thing needs replacement, it's accessible from the corner of the headliner. A buddy of mine owns a brand new Colorado, and the OEM/rear mounted shark fin went bad a few months after he bought the truck here on LI. He was forced to install an aftermarket puck type antenna in the driver front corner because in order to replace the OEM sharkfin, they told him the headliner would have had to be removed, in addition to the windshield (!). He's a local auto parts counter guy, who's been around cars his whole life, and didn't want them tearing the headliner down. Personally, I would have had no problem with the dealer doing that, but he insisted he would have had a sagging headliner in no time, and his local high-end body shop told him the same thing (?). I almost didn't believe him until I actually saw his brand new Colorado a week later with a cheap puck Sirius type antenna neatly installed up on the driver front corner of the truck. Couldn't believe my eyes.
Chris Griebel Ya, once you start messing with headliners they tend to fall sooner. My 05 silverado has the factory headlliner. Still almost in perfect condition as i never touch it ir allow anyone to touch it. At the doors, it has fallen a little, but nothing a little glue and glove didnt fix. Ive seen many more of the same year having pins holding the headliner up or they simply removed it. Not only that, but resealing a windshield after removal is a pain. They do not want to sit right and will crack. Having a windshield replaced is different as it tends to mold to the car once installed. Once molded, it has to go back exactly otherwise kiss that sucker goodbye..
I was at the chevy dealer near me may 31st buyin a truck....as my salesman was in the finance office workin on my deal i asked another salesman walking by what he thought of the new camaro refresh....his answer was i havent seen them!! I was thinkin this dude dont give a shit about cars haha! Mike D. would know i thought lol
I just got 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 lt with Texas package, love the truck.
I know the Silverado’s are ready to be preordered and whatnot, but when are they available to be actually bought and driven off of dealer lots?
You don’t really need to bother building your product knowledge on this new truck, it’s such a giant flop that not many people will be walking in wanting to buy one in the first place.
If you looked at this truck in a bubble where it’s competitors don’t exist then this truck looks alright, but if you compare it to the F-150 or especially the new RAM then this truck shows itself to be a massive disappointment, the interior is barren boring and very last gen especially that instrument cluster (it’s just embarrassing), the exterior has maybe one good angle but it’s generally an unpleasant and awkward look (my personal opinion) and it’s just doesn’t have the polish, refinement, clever features, modern design, upmarket luxury feel or desirability of the F-150 or RAM.
Matt I am a Ford guy but have to disagree with you here I drove F-150 and not a Chevy guy but two weeks ago today I bought a 2020 Silverado 1500 RST. Got way more truck for the money and love the looks of the Silverado better than the F-150. Always thought I would get a Ford truck but the way the 2020 Explorer Limited I traded in was put together which was a mess and not premium at all kinda turned me to Chevy. I had a 17 Ford Explorer Sport I loved that I traded for the 20 Limited and was very disappointed in Ford. My wife traded her 17 Explorer Limited for a 20 Hyundai Palisade Limited because she didn’t like the 20 Explorer and the attention to detail in the Hyundai is just amazing.
We need some updates on the HDs! I've got 625,000 miles on my 2011 3500HD. It's getting close to time for a few one.
Gene Fugatt damn that's alot
RealPlayerHD Yeah, it is. I haul for a living so I rack up the miles. I actually bought the truck in 2014 with 50,000 miles on it.
Gene Fugatt if you make good money I'll work with you
One of my co workers has a 2008 Sierra 1500 with 480,000 Miles and it still looks and runs good.
My truck is a 2015 Silverado 1500 double cab with 35,000 Miles. I bought it 3-1/2 months ago with 26,000 Miles. I get 18 mpg around town and 22 mpg on the highway. I’m surprised.
I towed a 1 ton trailer with a Farmall tractor on the back and it didn’t feel like it was towing anything. The grade braking is really nice.
Gene Fugatt that's impressive
Mike, great video! In your opinion, do you think the plastic dash will crack like the 07-13 Avalanche, Silverado, Tahoe etc. did?
Is the 2" lift kit on the Silverado just a set of lift blocks? Does it reduce ride quality?
Interior by Play School for sure!!!
IMO, on the aluminum, if there are panels to make aluminum, IMO, it's the doors, rockers, and bedsides... All the places that are rusted to crap in 5-8 years on Chevy trucks. I get the GM employee discount, and am considering getting my first Ford, because of not having to worry about the thing rusting before I'm done paying for it. I'm also an engineer, and have no problem with aluminum.
My least favorite part is that shit wax-based frame coating GM uses. We get 2017 Silverados traded in all the time that already have surface rust on the frame. Meanwhile, we look at even the older body style 2010-2014 F150s we've had traded and the frames and suspensions look brand new.
aluminum will corrode and if not a good quality it will corrode quick
I live in the city and don't need or want an 8 cylinder truck. I like the Chevy Colorado Z71 with the midnight package and the Silverado Custom Trail boss but i find some of the things quite outdated. One thing I would like is push to start do you think it is coming to either of those vehicles in 2020 or should i just say screw it and get the 2019? Also how common do people come in with problems from the 2012 Equinox LT radio? I have had constant issues and my dealership says nothing is wrong with it but I cant connect anything via usb when i do the whole infotainment system freezes. Also the FOP emblem is not for admin only I was a philly cop and all we had to do was request one we are allowed a max of two.
I have a 2013 rocky ridge edition, it's all steal all heavy duty stuff underneath it, and I love love love it. Much better than what they are offering in these new trucks, I think anyway. And my truck has a 6 inch lift on it, and it looks great with 35s under it.
I’m a huge Silverado fan, have had a number of them. I was excited about the new 2019’s but right now I don’t see any reason to replace my 2016 LTZ DC 6.2
Puttnutt24 agreed. I'm not getting rid of my 2016....probably ever. May end up dropping a new engine in it before ever getting rid of it (I run my trucks well over 250,000 miles). I'm even debating getting a tune to delete the AFM and to get better throttle response.
sreilly let me know how that afm delete goes. And how much it is
sreilly I’m in the middle of the process of tuning my truck with Blackbear Performance. Keep in touch
Angel Lugo will do. I'm a little skeptic about messing with the computer. I've rebuild/built/repaired who knows how many cars as side projects, spanning from vehicles from the late 40s to today. However, I am always nervous with messing with the computer on cars of today.
Puttnutt24 please let me know how you make out. You can always send me a PM. As mentioned in another comment, I'm a bit skeptical with messing with the computer. I can fix anything mechanical on a car, but for some reason am terrified with messing with a computer haha! I have no issues with my truck right now (bought it with 9 miles on it brand new, now has 35,000 miles). However, I am all about preventative maintenance. I really wish throttles were still drive-by-wire. I can't stand the electronic throttle control. I feel as if in emergency situations, the throttle is too slow to respond. I do like the AFM, but have heard of too many horror stories with lifter failure and excessive oil consumption. I'd rather give up the 5% fuel savings to extend the life of my engine.
Enough commercials already. Geeeesh
They should pay you a lot to play that many.
Michael Scott what commercials?
I just hit skip. Or close it.
Yep I got CZcams Premium it’s well worth it. Plus I get to watch Cobra Kai.
Dead or alive your're coming with me exactly
i have a 2016 silverado 1500 z71 off road rally 2,, i love it,, i don't like the active fuel management that switches into v4 mode,, but i am buying an over ride module from range technology,, i'm buying it in a few weeks,, it keeps the engine in v8 mode
Chevy dude, whats the pricing on the 19 silverado trail boss? And what are the colors?
I am a ford guy, and it is funny that Chevy people talking trash about aluminum, then what happened Chevy. Yea tossing bricks in the back of the bed and that toolbox was not working for ya
mathew wyrick that's because Gm has always followed and always will. LMAO
Actually, a lot of people are pissed chevy done such a thing. They have been going other brands for it too. I know the new 18/19 ram is aluminum, but the interior is damn near perfect. This looks like a cheap knockoff from china that missed ever mark.
Snipe Stud00 the new ram is not aluminum.... only the tailgate is. Rest of the body is steel
Pajama Time you must of not been listening. The hood and doors are to
Pajama Time As Marc said, Ram has done a chevy move for MPG. The hood, doors and tailgate are aluminum in the 2019 1500. Go to a dealer and pound on the body panels, you will find out quickly as i have and also read.
Tiny outdated infotainment system. Chevy needs to fire their old fogies that make decisions. Hire someone who is willing to go outside the box for once.
That's what everyone else says...
Do they still coat the frames in the crappy wax that helps rust out the frame?
Im surprised Chevy went with the automatic tailgate feature. What happens if the battery dies? Do you have to jumpstart the truck in order to get it down?
GMC Sierra: What the Silverado should have provided from the get go.
In all seriousness, wait until the type of refresh GM did on last gens trucks (i.e. the 2016+ refresh of the 2014 models).
CorvetteZ069 TX The 14 models looked better. The 16, not so much.
Snipe Stud00 it’s subjective honestly by looks, but the features and improvements made on the 16’s were worth it. I like how they modernized the trucks honestly, the 14’s looked way outdated compared to the F150’s and tundras
Only issue with electronical tailgate. Say you have a tonneau cover, doesn't open unless you open the tailgate. Your battery goes dead and the stuff you need is in your locked bed. No Battery = No Tailgate open? My dad brought this up and I had no answer for it myself.
@@ChevyDude Thanks for the response, Mike! Hopefully GM releases a statement or something about potential miss haps. I Love technology! But this could be an issue. Possibly could steer some buyers from getting these new GM trucks.
TFLTruck asked the one engineer in their video. He said that there is no manual bypass. Gotta jump the battery. Oversight IMO. Not sure why they couldn't have added a key lock that actuates the latches in an emergency.
@@sforce1000 Really? No manual by pass will be an issue. I Feel like this should be something optional like the auto start/stop. I Like easy lift/drop for a tailgate. But if you can't open a regular handle, and NEED a button? You probably shouldn't be in the market for a truck.
It’s just one more unnecessary electronic feature to go bad.
nkyryry gotta get that service/parts money..
Product knowledge is critical! My dad and I test drove a brand new 2500 High Country Duramax and I was telling the salesman things about the truck!
Smit1791 it's like that everywhere now. Salesmen have no idea what they're selling and service techs don't know what they're fixing. It's a shame!!
Neo Craft People have become so gullible it's easy to sell them products now. They don't do research, and just believe whatever the salesman comes up with.
Being a auto tech for Murcian brand dealers sucks why they end with sucky techs, they get put in debt because all of the stupid specialty tools you need now, and the pay is garbage. Most end making more money working at a grocery store.
Necrotic Reaper all of it Sad but very true! I have a feeling before long most young people will be buying a vehicle based on its infotainment system and nothing to do with its mechanical reliability. I guess it's the way things are going ...
Neo Craft Pretty much it. Paper specs, vanity, and fancy high tech interior
I have driven a couple of the new Malibus and to get around the start stop bs is when approaching a traffic light just before you come to a stop pop the gear selector into neutral and the engine will stay running. When the light turns green let your foot off the brake and shift into drive. The system works off of brake pedal pressure.
This video confirms my plan to buy a 2018 while they are still on the lot. I'm pretty disappointed GM has terrible incentives on the 2018's right now (As a GM employee, with GMS, the incentives are junk on crew cabs)
A GMC dealer near me has 4 2018's that are half off (all SLT's, and 2 crew cabs). The highest one is $26K
Can you message me the dealer name? I really prefer the silverado but half off is half off
I actually just rechecked, and it must gave been a glitch in their system. Last night, they had one listed at $25,875, not it is $42,014. Sorry
metallica2000sm a few months ago the Sierra SLT's were 12k off
Bachman had several Silverado's marked down into the $30K range, then raised the prices back up. It would be best to go in knowing your price, and be willing to negotiate and/or walk. Use Cargurus for your proof of the vehicle price.
You’ve literally said literally like literally 10000 times In 2 mins.
Hey just subbed I like your stuff!!
Just wondering, not sure if your allowed to answer but what do you think of this compared to the ram????
I like everything about this better except the interior. Dodges ( RAM whatever hahah) interior seems to be way better then this.
What do you think about the two?? Which do you like more? :)
Chevy Dude right on I'm subbed now so look forward to seeing It!!!
I was looking at trucks and vans on the Bachman site. I came across GCWR. What does that stand for?
I don't like the overall design of the 19" Silverado, maybe it will grow on me overtime but at this time, I dont like the design.
So with 2 different kinds of metals on the truck like that, how is Chevy going to deal with galvanic corrosion? And it makes me wonder if they ever thought about that.
Well considering coatings are common place on pretty much all sheet steel and sheet aluminum that’s probably a good portion of they avoid it. Or because the two materials never actually interface directly because the panels are bonded.
Since other manufacturers have been dealing with this for years, you do what everyone else does. You either buffer with a plastic, or coat the joining parts with some kind of insulating coating. I'm not talking paint, or primer here. My 2006 Subaru went through multiple blizzards, snow, ice, and 8 consecutive snowy winters. Zero rust and the car is Aluminum skinned with a steel frame. It doesn't have to rust.
Good video! Thanks for doing these, it's nice to check them out on CZcams, good job. I've always been a GM pickup dude. At certain angles it looks like a Tundra though, with the way the body creases are along the side. I do like it better than the big boxy current style. Just metal and plastic in a different shape for $50K.
Thanks again for an informative video Mike. I learned so much from you about the 2019 Chevy pickups. I love your Smokey cat. He's a good looking feller!
Thanks Chevy dude for the info. As long as salt is spread out on our snowy/icy roads, Any name vehicle with steel body/frame will rust after 5 or so years. I dont care what they coat it with. I brush painted my 2010 silverado frame 3x since new with gloss black oil based epoxy and repainted the driver side rocker panel and the area in behind the tail lights w/ granite blue. Also have to keep the driveshafts,control arms,rear shocks,rear axle housing,etc. painted or they too will rust away.If you lean on a silverado body too much it leaves a dent. 87 and earlier chevy truck bodies were IRON💪.
The winter road chemicals my states uses eats up the galvanized brake lines.
Dont use paint, use por15
The ridiculous price
Can you reach out to gm and see if they can make the auto start/stop a default off in the vehicle settings? I started the process.
Dear Mr. Davenport, is the Chevy Colorado door, hood, bed and fenders aluminum too?
this is why ram won all the truck of the years awards for the 2019 ram pick up
Awards mean nothing....Ram has the worst "real life" reviews. It's made by the worst manufacturer known....Fiat.
Well at least they put some damn AIR Vents in the back for rear passengers.
CharlestonCarVideos finally. They are so proud of this like its cutting edge. Why is GM so far Behind?
Michel, I'm so upset with Chevy right now. I've been filming Silverado's on my channel since 2011. When Mike put this video up I watched it second by second. For the longest time now I've been hoping Chevrolet would make some HUGE upgrades to the LT trim level. To me the Truck looks smaller than the current Silverado for 2018. I don't know man, but I'm going to have to wait and see this truck in person when it shows up in my city. Make sure to subscribe to my channel to see my thoughts on it and a big thanks to Chevy Dude for being honest with his viewers. Chad Dolbier
They put the in the wrong spot, if there’s a middle passenger they’re gonna have cold legs . They need them at the top of the rear seats
I'll be making my video soon when the Chevy Store I work with gets a shipment. Might be a little while since we're in the Country, but I will be giving my thoughts as well.
The funny thing is my 2005 extended cab has rear air vents
The cat yelling at 18:19. LMAO. BEST part of the video.
great vids keep up the great work.
1973 to 1987 C-K trucks were my favorite body style. These new trucks do not look like Chevys. I do not like the new look, however it will grow on me.
Long live the heavy Chevy. Nothing will ever look and run as good.
Great video as usual but i traded my 2016 Silverado for the 2019 Ram. Chevy missed the mark with this redesign Looks like a Tundra with technology that Ford had been using for many years now.
Michael carter your right about that
Ford is the best
Any chance we can get specific reviews or looks at each type 2019 Silverado custom would be great!
That ruff stuff on the bottom of the truck is called rock guard and its easy to apply since it's a spray on applicator and no it won't stop rust since rust starts on the inside. All it will do is delay the sign of rust in that are til the rust reaches to the metal not covered by the rock guard
Your pissed about automatic braking. I'm pissed about loud exhaust on a truck I hunt with. I very sure it isn't free.
Get an ecoboost. Them things are silent when creeping or idling.
That's why you park the truck before sun up and walk all day
That thing is just plain hidious man! I'm a chevy guy through and through but it looks like my 17 L5P Duramax is gonna have to last forever now and that's fine that it is a because it's like a beautiful modern rendition of the 80s square bodys and I love it. This thing looks like a tundra had drunken buttsex with an f150??? What the hell is with those stupid looking mirrors, and the interior in my 17 LTZ is a hell of alot nicer. Why does GM not realize that these days we want gigantic touchscreens, the new dodge is just as ugly but at least they realize that screen is a major plus! This thing sucks, Chevy fucked up is right!
Kyle Bowden I'm going with a nice 19 L5P and staying far far away from and vehicle with Auto Stop start.
I agree. Tho I have a 17 Raptor, I really do like Silverados, but this gen is terrible through and through
Totally agree. Have a 2018 Denali hd and was hoping the new 2020 would have a different dash than the 1500 but its the same disgusting thing for 80k.all the knobs and sterling wheel are penny pinched from the cross overs and lower end cars. there to small for the scale of the truck. the only thing nice is the sheet metal and finally led lights. I'm keep my truck until they redeem them selves.
Also 500 pound "lighter “. ????
Hey Mike, I just got my 18 silverado, love it, next time you talk to the GM guys, ask them why they put a 140MPH spedo in that truck. I mean come on, why not complement it with a 10 grand tach, or a 500 degree temp gauge!!! It would be really cool if you could make a video on this!!
Hi mike! You have gained a new subscriber from mexico! Thanks for the good informative content! Love chevy vehicle. Btw i own a camaro rs 6gen. love it!
i agree on the auto stop worthless
It's shit. My f150 has it, and have to turn it off every time I start it up
Id honestly hate to see the price for the starter on these new trucks. I actually idel a lot when out on my land. I prefer having an AC escape from 110F heat. Also take a siesta while idling. Think the longest ive slept was 2 hours, but from 12-2pm WTF was i going to do while waiting for parts? Cheaper to idle in the truck than drive back and forth to the house, shop, or parts store...
Cant you disable it? And the starters are different than traditional from what I was reading
Austin Hagin Yes and no. Also, though they are different, that means the orice for my 05 starter is around 250. These new ones will fetch 600
As someone with 28+ years in Alum material that once its bent or crinkled after forming it's pretty much a throw away piece of metal.
Stephen Bradley door dings in the grocery store parking lot will result in having to buy a new door lol
No but that ding will bother you till you can throw it away.
What do you mean? You know there are different grades of aluminum, I'm sure. My old 2006 Subaru Impreza has almost all aluminum skin, and went through both door dings and a major hail storm. The thing had over a HUNDRED dings and a really good PDR guy got them ALL out for a tenth of the cost of body/painting the car. Aluminum is more difficult to work with, and is not as elastic or malleable as steel, but it can be repaired.
Dude I sub like the moment I saw this truck hit your lot I’m a fan of it so much love the work u do an appreciate it
Quick q. When is chevy going to come out with hi-top express? I've put on 558k miles on my 09 3500 4.8l. Original motor trans... love the gm durability. Just really need a hi-top.
