Asked by Katie Aug 31, 2016 at 02:18 PM about the 2010 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ Ext. Cab 4WD

Question type: General

We have a 2011 silverado truck the choices for driving are P R N D M (it is my husband's truck) it is automatic so what does M stand for? He traded in his other truck for this one and I have never seen M as a choice for an automatic.
All the paper work just says Silverado (no number after it like 1500 or 2500) So I just picked the stuff below. It has 4WD and four doors, short bed. Thanks

M possibly stands for manual, look behind the steering wheel you may be able to override the automatic transmission with "flappy paddles"

However there is a +/- on the gear shift along with a little picture of a trailer.. Would this be the "Manual over drive"?

without looking at the shifter I can't help you, perhaps the owners hand book may shed some light on the situation

There will be a +/- on the shifter. It's stands for manual. This allows you to select gears manually
