Although the 2024 Chevy Silverado 2500 HD offers a newly refined interior and attention-grabbing looks, the customary brute-force performance synonymous with the trusted Silverado name remains the same. Find out how the Silverado 2500 crosses off every box on your journey to owning one of the world’s most durable trucks.
With six trims, three cab styles, two bed lengths, two powertrains, and a loaded list of build and configuration choices, the versatility of the Chevy Silverado 2500 is on full display. For those who have a next-level rugged duty or challenging itinerary on tap, here’s why your short list of available trucks can be whittled down to one–the 2024 Silverado 2500 HD.
Heavy-Duty That’s Not Just Lip Service
While the standard 6.6-liter V8 has a work-ready 401 hp, 464 lb-ft of torque, a 3,759 lb payload capacity, and enough max towing to satisfy many daily tasks, some jobs require more. Say hello to the available 6.6-liter 470 hp Duramax Turbo-Diesel powerhouse with 975 lb-ft of torque and up to 22,500 lbs of towing ferocity that checkmates the toughest scenarios.
This legendary power broker of a motor keeps your loads moving by applying more torque at lower RPMs. After a hard day on the go, Duramax’s engine after run feature keeps the engine humming at idle allowing a proper cool-down sequence to complete. The turbo-diesel workhorse also includes a block heater, winter grille cover, an easy DEF fill location, and is available on all trims! With the following drivetrain, this dynamic duo has earned its complimentary reputation.
Smooth Operator PTO
All 2024 Silverado 2500 HDs come standard with a nifty Allison 10-speed automatic transmission and electronic overdrive for a seriously smooth ride in a vehicle of this size. Tow/Haul mode increases control and stability by employing Auto Grade Breaking which downshifts while using engine braking to improve overall safety when towing a camper, boat, or trailer. An available Allison option is integrated Power-Take-Off (PTO) which transfers engine power to auxiliary components.
Max Towing Ability
If hooking up often is part of the plan, an available and pleasantly tenacious Max Trailer Package is the way to go. You get an upgraded frame, leaf springs, shocks, and a more robust rear axle (all borrowed from the staunch big brother Silverado 3500 HD trims) along with 5th Wheel Prep and Gooseneck outfitting. This popular add-on is necessary for maximum towing capacity with an emphasis on durability and safety.
Convenience Package II
Includes Hitch Guidance which assists in lining things up with Hitch View on the Rear Vision Camera and affords real-time monitoring of trailer activities as you drive. Once you shift into Park, the Electric Parking Brake automatically engages keeping everything safely in place.
These are just some of the highlights of what the ultra-rugged 2024 Silverado 2500 HD has to offer. Ready to find out more? Contact us today at Wild West Chevrolet in Yerington, NV to schedule a test drive.
