Introduction
The Chevrolet Silverado HD is the heavy-duty variant of the volume-selling Silverado/GMC Sierra light-duty 1500-series truck. Designed for commercial use, the 2011 platform is offered in 2500HD and 3500HD models-the latter often with dual rear wheels for increased load and towing capabilities.

The 2011 model year marks a significant refresh for the Silverado HD with an all-new fully-boxed frame, upgraded engines, revised transmissions, and several new standard electronic safety features. Interestingly enough, the interior is a carryover (the automaker is emerging from bankruptcy, so keeping costs down was a priority). The new 2011 model is expected in showrooms this summer.
