2015 Chevrolet Silverado High Country review notes - Autoweek

The fanciest Chevy Silverado available. ROAD TEST EDITOR JONATHAN WONG: Things are better in High Country… at least if you prefer your 2015 Chevrolet Silverado pickup truck to be packed with some extra standard features, additional chrome exterior jewelry, and an exclusive saddle-brown... When we awarded the Chevy Silverado our Best of the Best Truck award for 2014, we had a High Country model for testing. A couple of weeks ago, we had a new Ford F-150 in the office, and it was a nice truck. The aluminum body panels to save weight are big news for the Ford, but in terms of refinement in the ride quality and the interior, it wasn’t a quantum leap ahead of the old truck. It was familiar and felt like an F-series truck, which isn’t a bad thing, because the Ford remains the sales king in the segment. Now, after getting out of this Silverado, I remain impressed with the smooth ride (for an unloaded truck), and the cabin, which you easily settle into with controls that are large and clearly marked to make working through easy. The Silverado definitely isn’t the best-riding truck, though. But the Silverado is a solid second-best in the ride comfort category. Source: autoweek.com
