With the addition of 4WD, this extended cab may also be equipped with an optional off-road package, including a heavier-duty suspension and skid plates. A separate Limited Edition package includes a performance suspension, 20-inch wheels, a locking differential and towing preparation kit.

The LT1 trim comes equipped with cruise control, dual-zone climate control, a CD audio system, keyless entry and full power accessories. The LT1 is differentiated from the lower level trims by the addition of an auto-dimming rearview mirror.

The extended cab is the only Silverado 1500 body style where buyers may select from all three available bed lengths, with this pickup using the medium, 78.7-inch bed.
