The leather-trimmed interior, heated and ventilated front seats, and dual-zone automatic temperature control turn every commute or road trip into a high-value experience.

Those who tow, haul, or transport family will benefit from the versatile rear step bumper, split folding rear seat, and advanced tech integrations.In terms of performance, while other trucks like the Silverado 1500 may offer comparable V8 options, this truck’s 3.5L V6 EcoBoost delivers strong, responsive acceleration with better city fuel economy at 17 MPG and highway efficiency at 24 MPG.
