2004 Chevrolet Silverado Touring W/nav.sys

Last year’s freshening caused the full-size Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck to display more of a family resemblance to the company’s Avalanche and TrailBlazer sport utility vehicles. The Silverado 1500 has a half-ton rating. This 1500 Extended Cab is value after value packed with the right options and behaves like a serious workhorse. You can expect a traditional pickup-truck experience, which translates to a bouncy ride — especially when the cargo bed is empty. But there’s plenty of energy, especially when the 5.3V8 is installed. This bad boy comes with an automatic transmission and maneuvers rather well through urban environments. The fully calibrated instruments are excellent and easy to read, and the Silverado runs rather quietly for a truck. Built Chevy Strong! C'Mon down
