2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ 4dr Extended Cab 4WD 6.5 ft. SB (5.3L 8cyl 4A)

Review

Miss my 94 Silverado. MPG 14-16, not 20. I drive 180 miles RT for work and that includes 5 miles gravel roads and frequent 4WD. Truck is comfortable and looks good. Cargo management system and kept losing the plastic corners. Finally gave up and removed the front part of it. Stereo speakers crackle and pop and sound like crap already. The big Chevy "Bowtie" has water in it, expect it to fall off soon. Problems with the tire pressure monitor system twice. 4WD switch doesn't work all the time and now 4WD is "Out." Been at the dealers for the last 9 days and counting. Last GM product!

Favorite Features

XM, "Looks," back doors that open all the way back to the cab, tow hooks.

Suggested Improvements

Old fashioned 4WD Stick shift on the floor instead of flimsy "Dial" on the dash, sturdier 4WD, better fit and finish, tell the truth about the MPG, don't get people excited about 20 MPG if it really gets 14-16 MPG.

Review

Truck has been good to me. Only problems have been a battery replacement which was a GM recall and my tonneau cover created some paint problems on the bed rails. I recommend buying some plastic bed rails or taking the cover off regularly to make sure water is not getting trapped. Over very satisfied with the truck.

Favorite Features

Looks. Great looking truck. Black on gray leather. Interior is very nice. Computer information is very handy. Tire pressure, oil life, etc.

Suggested Improvements

The 5.3 could use a little more power but this is the reason for the good gas mileage. Not the most comfortable leather seats. So/so navigation system. I would like if the truck sat up a tad bit higher as well

Review

I bought the LTZ Crew Cab Vortec Max with all options including Navigation, and all other associated goodies. Wife and I purchased it new in Nov of 07, and I can't throw enough accolades out there for this newly re-designed truck. It looks as good as it feels. Mine is black with custom chrome 18" rims. I love the gadgets, performance, and the look. Backup sensors, DIC, tilt mirrors when reversing, and the choices I can have to customize settings within the DIC.

Favorite Features

Navigation system, XM radio, leather, styling, comfort, gadgets ease of use, power sliding rear window, Homelink, Z- 71 and Max trailoring package, bed space, OnStar and hands free calling are handy. Wife loves memory seating with adjustable peddles, (If I let her drive it!) Backup sensors spoil me!

Suggested Improvements

Turning radius makes it hard to park in shopping areas, not real crazy about the glove box, it's not exactly useful. Center console seems more of just a big ole box. Easy to just "clutter" stuff in there only to clean up later. Should have backup camara shown in Nav screen like the Tahoe does

Review

I was going to buy a new Silverado in 2006 and my salesman suggested I wait for the newly redesigned model. I couldn't be happier that I waited. The redesign is great all the way around. Interior is much more comfortable, exterior is a lot more eye catching and the trucks capabilities are more than ever. Ultimatly, the wait was worth my while and I would recommend anyone checking out the Silverado before looking at other options.

Favorite Features

Large cabin space, plenty of room for six adults. 4.8L V-8 has a lot of guts. Rubber floors are easy to clean. Runs smooth & very quiet. Even the Dodge & Ford owners look at this truck while I drive by!

Suggested Improvements

If your gonna put chrome on the rear bumper, put some on the front too. Make the tire pressure monitoring system easier to reset after tire rotation. I still cannot figure it out & must bring back to the dealer. Driver side floor has a hole where the heel of my foot rests. Not covered by warranty

Review

We got our pickup right off the lot with 12k and it has been awesome. The only problem that we have had is it would not unlock or start and the problem was that the battery cable had came loose and became unplugged. Other than that it has been fun to have it has leather and plenty of legroom on the interior. The heated winsheild wiper fluid really works when its is frozen. The backup sensors are awesome too, it is easier to backup closer to things. Another feature is the advance track works really well when you are in gravel. We have had other Chevy pickups but and this is the best. But if you like paying $90 every other day with 14 miles to the gallon then this is the truck for you.

Favorite Features

XM radio, OnStar, dual climate control, backup sensors, automatic headlights with daytime running lamps. Fog lights, leather, and pretty much everything

Suggested Improvements

They should all have a backup camera standard in the mirror like the 09' Chevy Traverse or in the nav. Another thing is they should have air vents int the back. I don't care how good the air is.

Review

Got rid of it! It got the worst gas mileage of any of the Silverado's I have owned. Never got anything more than 15, even on the highway. It was a 4x4 Z71 and rode terrible. Did like the way it handled though. So happy to see it go!

Favorite Features

Liked the back doors that would swing 170 degrees

Suggested Improvements

Ride, gas mileage

Love the truck but the gas tank is empty most of the time. I have 3.73 gears for pulling boats and heavy loads and the best mpg on the highway at 55 is 15.9. Not 20 mpg.

Love the ride

Review

I have had my ride for 4 months now overall it was a good purchase so far. I would say if you have money to burn look at the Tundra but you cannot get a v8 long bed real deal pick up like mine for under 20g in any other brand. I am weary of the Chevy track record as I have had a few it seems there is always some little crap going on with them engine idling right? Rear end humming? Interior plastic has sharp edges mine only has 5 grand so far. I guess I will find out how things pan out at 10-20-30 thousand miles. The definite plus side to this truck is the gas mileage for being so big I can cruise at 15-1700 rpm on the freeway. The basic options that come with it are also nice.

Favorite Features

Auto head lights, small block fury, exhaust

Suggested Improvements

Idles weird, clunky trans to rear end hook up. Smooth out the plastic parts. Sharp edges fraying the seat belt.

2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Work Truck 2dr Regular Cab 4WD 6.5 ft. SB (4.8L 8cyl 4A)

Review

Love my victory red 4.8 v8 2007 regular cab. I've added chrome front bowtie, sidesteps, doorhandles and tailgate handle. I've also added a GM bug hood shield, bed mat and tinted the windows with 20 percent. It's nice to have a free year of OnStar.

Favorite Features

The whole truck is very solid! The doors and tailgate feel great. Makes my friends Toyota feel like a toy!

Suggested Improvements

I did notice the bed is slightly unlevel with the cab. The under coating is a little sticky and in places gravel sticks. Plus it makes a mess out of your hands if you even think about touching it.

Review

I have owned this truck a little over a year and currently have 11,000 miles on it. Prior to purchasing I test drove the F150, Tundra, and Ridgeline before making my decision. Hands down the Silverado had the nicest interior, ride and more than adequate power. I've towed my 5300# camper with it 3 times and have been very impressed with the pulling power of the 5.3, averaging (pullng) 13 MPG which isn't bad considering the trailer is like pulling a parachute. Thrilled I made this choice and the truck continues to inspire me that America can still make a great vehicle.

Favorite Features

Interior is spacious and the new instrument panel layout is terrific. I really like the OnStar which I use quite often as well as the DIC which helps me manage my driving habits to get the optimum fuel economy.

Suggested Improvements

Not overly fond of the black plastic un the center of the lower front grille area.
