Used Chevrolet Silverado 2500 for Sale

Overall this truck performed well above expectations. The engine had plenty of power for towing and the ride was very smooth. The four wheel drive worked every time it was called on, which was a lot in the mountains of Oregon. Any maintenance was straightforward and all major components were easy to access. It got good mileage on the highway for a 4x4, even when those miles were in four wheel drive. The movable work light under the hood was a nice extra. The truck was solid and most of the parts held up under heavy workload that technically exceeded specs. The heater/defroster worked a bit too well cracking the windshield in the winter.

A well built rugged truck that has run well with a minimum of maintenance needs other than normal oil changes. It has held up well to winter road salt even without many washes to remove from the undercarriage. The interior has held up well and few if any of the accessories have worn or broken. The paint has been pretty durable even with the many off road treks and back woods firewood cutting jobs done on a monthly basis. The four wheel drive has worked flawlessly and I have never become stuck and required assistance. It does get poor gas mileage. And has become worse as the age has grown now down to 10-13 MPG. But it is a big 3/4 tom truck and no matter if I am hauling 20 bails of hay or a few thousand pounds of firewood it gets the same mileage. The engine still has good torque and hauls my boat down the highway at 70 with no problems. And it can climb a steep grade with a large load without hesitation.The brakes are large drum in back and disc in front and can stop this truck with a load just as reasonable as a passenger car.

I am reviewing my 2007 Chevrolet 2500HD Classic Crew Cab Diesel truck with the long bed. This truck has blown away all of my expectations that I had when I first bought it. Power, cab space, cargo room, decent mileage, good looks, this truck has it all!
