2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT1 LB

Drivers who require a functional truck with a comfortable two-door cab and additional cargo hauling capability can opt for the 2008 Chevy Silverado 1500 LT1 LB (Long Box). It offers just over 70 cubic feet of cargo space in the rear bed, thanks to the LB's 97.6-inch length (up from 69.3 inches for the Short Box).

Inside, the 1500 LT1 LB features driver- and passenger-side recliners, plus a fold-down center armrest with storage space. Drivers can store additional cargo in the lockable underseat storage area that includes a power outlet. Select Cloth seats come standard with the Silverado LT1 LB, but drivers can upgrade to optional Custom Leather seats, as well as an optional six-way power-adjustable driver's seat.

A 295-horsepower, 4.8-liter Vortec V8 engine powers the two-wheel-drive Chevy Silverado 1500 LT1 LB. The engine links to a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission designed for smooth, quiet shifting. The transmission includes a Tow/Haul mode, which enhances performance when pulling a trailer or hauling heavy loads.

Standard features for the Silverado LT1 LB include power windows and door locks, remote keyless entry, a tire pressure monitor, OnStar, cruise control, and an AM/FM audio system with an MP3 input jack. Antilock brakes and 17-inch chrome wheels are also included.
