2007 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Reviews, Pricing & Specs

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.

I Love My Truck. Its reliable and has been though 2 accidents. The last one was an transmission killer sorta. It performs really well. Its really good on gas. Its very fun to drive off road and handles very well.

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!

Bought it to be able to carry all my gear around. Only a 4.8L, so acceleration is lower than some models, but it handles and brakes like everything else. Small squeaks, but that's cause it's dirty :P Appearance is perfect for an 07, and it's easy on gas too. I love it; it's exactly the truck I've been looking for.

I love absolutely everything about my truck. It's got me out of a lot of close calls, but most importantly the safety features. Dual zone climate control is nice. My truck has the 5.3L V8 with Active Fuel Management. I can't say enough good things about that feature. I get better mileage with the V8 than I ever did with the little quad 4 I had. In BC I was getting pretty good mileage with it, averaging 600km per 3/4 tank of gas. Out here, I can go forever without having to fill up again. Absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend that if you're in the market for a truck, this is THE truck to get!

The truck ran great and only usual wear and tear issues that all vehicles have.

This truck was just what I needed. Chevy silverado truck keep their value and the last 4 fords I had al fell apart. Chevyan for life now

The thing about this truck is that the engine runs perfect and the wheels are still in pretty good shape and the truck is in good shape for the year it is. I would recomend this truck for work or for family transportation. The inside is leather and wood trim. Also it includes heat warmers and the A/C is working really good.The trunck also has a cover on top and makes it look nicer.

Truck is very appealing visually. The exterior is great, I even like the silver birch metallic color, it matches my Harley. Driving the truck, which I purchased yesterday, is fun..traded an 05 Jeep Cherokee and forgot the pure fun of a pick up..some basic instinct finds it appealing. I got the W/T w/V6..engine has adequate power for my needs and the package came with Cruise control, tilt steering, dual A/C and auto headlights for under 19,000..hard to beat the deal. the truck drives nice so far, haven't owned a Chevy in years but look forward to this..the dealer gave me a good deal on the Cherokee, which I was seriously upside down in. Anyway, I only have 180 miles on the truck but all is well so far..the interior is a little plain but, after all, it is a work truck. Fit and finish on the exterior is good quality, however, some of the materials used on the interior (plastic knobs) feel like Chevy could have done better.

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.

Oil changes new battery and tires is all that ive put into it since i bought in 07 The new chrome grille looks great added a new tow package to it and put a factory stereo in that has a aux port. Added a GM bedliner tuneau cover and vent sheilds. its a one owner vehicle i bought it with only 4 miles on it. I wish the truck had 16'' wheels instead of 17'' the 17s are very expensive and sometimes hard to find. paid off and i enjoy driving this truck been on many long road trips

this is the First pickup I have ever owned that felt like a car but drove like a truck.. Great over all for comfort.... that and this truck for stock, jumps out of her skin unlike the lame f150 that can't get out of its own way...

my silverado is very impressive but i have a few new vehicle problems. the transmission got stuck in second gear and needed solenoids at 3000 miles. the a/c keeps switching to outside air while driving no matter what and it is annoying to bring in exhaust fumes from other vehicles. the dealer says several complaints but no remedy as gm considers this normal. a letter to gm got me the same responce. this is a normal function of the vehicle according to gm. breathing other peoples exhaust in traffic can't be right..any ideas? a wind noise and rattle from the passenger windsheild post is very annoying at speeds over 65 mph. the noise is worse if it is windy outside. responces are welcomed :)

I was told by even my Chevy mechanic that this new style Silverado was built solid, and I love the new look, but that's about all I can say good so far. I only have around 1300 miles now, but gas mileage is worse than the '06 Silverado I traded in, about 17.5 versus 20. I took a longer highway trip yesterday and averaged 15.9 pathetic mpg. I also have a strange high pitched whistling noise coming from somewhere, and was told it has to do with the accellerator? I've noticed a slight rattle or crackle in the drivers door, but it tends to come and go. Love the look inside and out but I personally find a couple of the gauges a little hard to see at times. It seems like the gas gauge could have been tilted in a little more towards the driver. Overall interior seems a little nicer than the '06, and the extra electronic features are neat. Overall, I would have looked at other trucks or stuck with my '06 had I known.

I am/was a chevy guy. Currently having trouble with either leaking or burning a lot of oil (1qt per 1700mi). Otherwise, I love the truck, some minor issues where the backs of the front seats fell off and the the rear sliding window is not working, may be a fuse. This 5.3 gets decent mpgs (16.5 average) for a full sized truck.

This truck handles snow, mud, ect. like a dream

30000km. so far with absoluty no problems.

On test drive there was a vibration between 45 to 55 MPH. Then we hit a little small broken pavement in the road and the truck jumps all over the place!

making a loud grinding noise between 40 and 45 mph. its very frustrating to have a truck with 500 miles making this noise and they cant figure out what it is. im about to ask for a new truck. it also has the wind noise which i knew about when i bought it. they all have it.
