2015 Chevy Silverado 1500 - Roanoke Times
What's New for 2015. The 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 gets a new eight-speed automatic transmission for the optional 6. 2-liter V8 engine. Also, what was known last year as the 2WT (Work Truck) is now the LS. Introduction The full-size pickup truck class has seen a lot of positive change lately. The 2015 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 received a total overhaul just last year. The latest Silverado boasts exactly the strengths most buyers have come to expect from full-size Chevy trucks: considerable towing and hauling capabilities and lots of available configurations. If you're planning to use your truck for real work, one of the three available engines will meet your needs. The standard V6 shouldn't be overlooked, as it allows the Silverado to tow up to 7,600 pounds when properly equipped. Chevy Silverados with this powertrain are able to tow up to 12,000 pounds when properly equipped, and the two extra forward gears should add up to better performance and fuel economy when you're pulling a trailer.
