2016 bought used with 6000 miles on it
So, I went from a 1999 that I bought new in 99, to a 2016. Without question the 2016 is quieter, more responsive and more comfortable. And mine does not shake. There is a lot I like about my new truck BUT, It does feel big compared to my 99 and it's so responsive in the steering that you just sneeze and your going in a different direction. Also, I can't seem to do better then 11 MPG and It's a 2WD. That, and I liked the storage, especially the overhead, better in my 99. With that said, I'm happy with my new Silverado. Great looks, comfort and the MyLink system is very cool. I also think that the 16 sits much better than the 14-15 model.

Do not waist your money!!!
Vibration problems started within two weeks of owning the truck. The dealer knows there are vibration problems but there is not a fix. I was told that's the way they are, deal with it. The transmission is sluggish and slow to keep up with the driving situations. The electronics crash frequently. The dealership said it was due to subpar and cheap Chinese made memory chips and control boards. Please do not waist your money on this truck. I traded the truck for a Dodge Ram after only 2200 mile. Worst of all the dealership fully understands the problems but will not mention them during the sales process. They will gladly take your money and give you a piece of junk in return.

Good gas milage and no problems
I now have over 78,000 miles on this truck. My over all average is 22.4 MPG. I do mostly highway, and use the cruise control at the speed limit. The V8 transition to V4 is seemless, I am happy with this truck! The only repair needed was a windshield washer pump replacement that was done under warranty at no cost to me.I like the power of the 5.3 V8. It pulls my car hauler with a 5500 pound skid steer with ease.

A total lemon
I’ve spent over $400 trying to fix the AC unit and it still blows blazing hot air in the hot humid Georgia summer instead of cold air. Transmission gave out recently and still awaiting the repairs to be complete. Chevy seriously needs to issue a recall on both the AC and the transmission as several mechanics have told me this is a common problem in the 2016 Chevy Silverado but unfortunately GM is too greedy and expects customers to pay out of pocket for expensive repairs on a young vehicle unlike Ford which takes responsibility for defective trucks. I will not buy another Chevy unless GM starts following Ford’s example and issues recalls for this kind of crap
Love this truck
My wife and I went to the dealership to look for a truck for me, found it!; and she found a sweet little sedan which went home with us too. We were in and out in record time, and they had our new vehicles ready for us the next day. Great experience; we recommend them.
