Used 2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT1 for Sale near Carbondale, IL

This was my first pickup but certainly not my last. I will replace with similar Silverado perhaps the next one will have a sun roof. Excellent cargo space although back seat is a little close for large adults. I bought it new and have been the only driver.

The ext. cab z-71 is known for its offroad abilities without breaking or having any problems. The one I drive has the 5.3 liter flex fuel engine with the 3.42 gear ratio. When cruising at 55mph I can get 24mpg. That is astounding for a truck under any circumstance...and there has been no performance upgrading done yet. The truck accelerates great, brakes, and handles great. There is a trailer tow mode that switches the transmission's shift points thus making accellerating with heavy loads easier. There has been an excess of 1500lbs in the bed of the truck (in the rain too) and she handled it just fine. Pulling a boat is simple and easy..even taking it up steep, slick boatramps is a cinch. The Silverado is a great choice for a truck. So far, I have almost 30,000 miles and have had no problems. The only maintenance I have had done is on a bad speaker , oil changes, and tire rotation. Also, speaking of the tires, the Goodyear Wrangler AT's are showing very little wear at this stage.

Hugely improved over the previous body style EXCEPT for the rear brakes: they went back to drums! I can't complain too much though, because the stopping is still excellent although the ABS is a little too overprotective and this can result in longer stopping distances on ice. Don't bother ordering the GM installed command start -- it works from a maximum of about 50 yards.

I've owned Chevrolet vehicles for years now and they have never disappointed. Very reliable and sturdy vehicles. Great handling, turn radius is great...better than some cars. The seating is comfortable in the front, could use more room in the back, but the seats are comfy. Great truck overall!

Love the truck, except for 2 things, the interior noise that the dealership can't pinpoint, and they delay from V4 to V8 when you stomp on the gas pedal. Other than that the truck is great, looks alot better than the previos silverado.
