For over two decades, drivers have depended on the Chevy Silverado 1500 to help them get the job done. Now, with an exciting redesign for the 2021 model year, the Silverado has even more hard-working features, making it tougher and more reliable than ever before. Here are four hard-working features that you can take advantage of when you drive the 2021 Silverado 1500.

Towing Capacity
Thanks to the 2021 Silverado 1500’s incredible towing capacity, you never have to leave your essential gear behind. When equipped with the available 3.0-liter Duramax Turbo-Diesel engine, the Silverado 1500 can tow up to 9,300 pounds and handle a payload of 2,060 pounds. If you equip your Silverado 1500 with the available 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V-8, you can take advantage of a 13,400-pound towing capacity and a 2,100-pound payload capacity.
Not only can the Silverado 1500 tow an impressive amount of weight, but it comes with several features that make towing safer and more manageable. The trailering system helps you attach your trailer and assists you with parking. Trailer sway control gives your tow trailer more stability when it’s windy outside. Hill start assist and auto grade braking make it easier to tow on an incline and other unstable terrains.

Multi-Flex Tailgate
The Silverado 1500’s all-new Multi-Flex tailgate, exclusive to Chevy pickup trucks, offers six configurations that make it easier than ever to load, organize, and unload cargo. The tailgate can also serve as an extra workspace when you need to use your laptop or spread out blueprints. With 12 standard tie-downs, you can secure all items of all shapes and sizes. LED cargo lighting means that you don’t have to stop working just because the sun has set.
-
Functional Cabin
While the Chevy Silverado 1500’s cabin is spacious and comfortable, it’s also quite functional. Two rear-seatback storage compartments are the first of their kind in the Silverado 1500’s class. Underseat storage and a spacious center console give you even more space for storing tools, devices, and other items. You can also use the console as a workspace.
A 15-inch head-up display gives you vital driving information without distracting you from the road. The Chevrolet Infotainment 3 system integrates with your smartphone, so you’ll never miss an important phone call or text message from the office. Thanks to turn-by-turn directions and real-time traffic updates, you’ll always get to work on time.

Intelligent Safety Features
No matter where you’re going, you can count on the 2021 Silverado to work hard to keep you safe and secure. A forward-collision alert scans the road for potential collisions and provides tailgating alerts if you’re following another vehicle too closely. If you can’t respond to the system’s warnings on time, it will activate the emergency brakes. Adaptive cruise control maintains your preferred cruising speed, adjusting it when traffic slows down. If a vehicle enters your blind spots, you’ll receive audio and visual alerts from the blind-spot monitor.
These are just a few of the 2021 Chevy Silverado 1500’s hard-working features. Take a test drive at Toliver Brothers today and see why it should be your next work truck.
