Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD Model Overview

The Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD is a heavy-duty version of this very popular pickup truck. Launched in 2001 (perhaps as a response to the Ford F-150 Super Duty?) the Chevy Silverado 1500HD offers the extra-rugged suspension and larger cargo capacity you might expect from a commercial truck along with the cabin comfort and luxury touches you'd find on an SUV.

It's the perfect truck for suburban cowboys, or indeed for ranchers who are sick of bare-bones cabins and jolting rides on sprung bucket seats. The Chevrolet Silverado 1500HD offers comfort as well as function, and that's never a bad combination. Alas, the 1500HD didn't have long to capture its market; the line was launched in 2001, and the last models were manufactured in 2006.
