This popular pickup’s new features will shake up the competition
TUCSON, Ariz. – The 2027 Chevrolet Silverado HD pickups look familiar, but under the skin they’re new in ways that will make a huge difference to the owners who use them for everything from hauling million-dollar horses to emergency utility work. New steering and brakes change the heavy duty trucks’ character, making them easier to drive than ever before, even when pulling their new towing capacity – 38,000 pounds, a full ton more than the current model. Built in Flint, Michigan, the 2027 Silverado 2500 and 3500 HDs are scheduled to go on sale late this year. I drove Silverado HDs on everything from a closed track to suburban roads, desert highways and a rugged off-road course. I also towed a 36,000-pound trailer loaded with landscaping materials on a closed course. I don't have the commercial driver's license needed to legally pilot a rig that size on public roads. What I liked about new 'feel' The new steering and brakes are a revelation. Competitive heavy-duty pickups ― the Ford F-series Super Duty and Ram 2500 and 3500 ― use another type of steering called recirculating ball. It used to be common on cars and pickups, but has been widely replaced
