Question by ArTe.TBNK.: What are the differences between Chevrolet Trucks?
My friend and I are looking for a tough working and comfortable pick up truck, we wanted to get the Chevrolet Silverado, but all the trims and models are freaking us out. There are the HD1500, HD2500, and HD3500 and I do not know what is all the big differences between these 3, and the next hard part is all the trims, like the LT or LTZ or what ever. Please tell me what is the difference between all the models and trims, or any suggestions to get which one of the model and trim. Thank you.
And should I get the 4WD or the 2WD?

Best answer:

Answer by ramcharger
1500 is a half ton…2500 is a three quarter ton…3500 is a one ton,as you go higher the hauling capacity increases,4 w.d. makes all four tires pull as in an off road or muddy terrain as on a construction site,(optional,is not a full time 4 w.d….they offer a work truck trim ,basic,no carpet.vinyl seat covering,lt offers a cloth or vinyl seat,gets nicer in ltz,need to choose the one that best suits your total driving habits.

1500, 2500 and 3500 designate the size of the truck

The smallest is a 1/4 ton, the 2500 is 1/2 ton and the biggeest truck is a 3/4 tone load capacity. Stand next to the trucks side by side and the difference is obvious. They will also have different engine sized based ont he size of the truck.

The LT and LTZ are nothing more than trim packages.

Read the Chevy website if you want to know the differences.

The 1500 is a 1/2 ton, the 2500 is a 3/4 ton and the 3500 is a one ton. You can get the 2500 and 3500 in the dually or singular rear wheels. The tonnage is the payload, or how much weight you can safely carry in the bed. The more payload, the more you can tow too. So if you plan on towing a boat or a trailer, find out the weight of it and buy your truck accordingly.

The LT is the middle trim. It has standard features such as cloth split front seat, A/C, cruise, CD, fog lights, etc. The LTZ is the top of the line and has leather, bucket seats, dual power seats, XM, Onstar, etc standard.

2 or 4WD? That’s strictly up to you. It depends on your needs. If most of your driving is on city pavement, 2WD will do just fine. But if you live in snow or rain country, 4WD will come in very handy. As it will if you work in construction where you’ll be on dirt and/or mud a lot.

One last thing, if you do go with the 2500 or 3500 and you plan to do a lot of towing or hauling, you might want to get the Duramax diesel. It has a lot of torque and is the top rated diesel on the market.
