Wheelers Automotive is happy to offer their loyal customers the brand new 2011 Chevy Silverado 2500 and 3500. This truck presents a quality ride along with the towing and hauling capabilities that car buyers expect with the Silverado.

Marshfield, WI -- (SBWire) -- 04/01/2011 -- Wheelers Automotive is proud to offer their loyal customers the brand new 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD. The 2011 Silverado offers car buyers a unique truck because it offers tremendous entertainment and convenience while maintaining the high quality towing and hauling customers expect with their trucks. The truck performs like a high quality pickup truck while also giving drivers the feel of a smaller, lighter vehicle. Let’s look at some of the features that make these trucks the right vehicles for you..

Commensurate with the Silverado HD’s greater strength and capability is a rear suspension designed to support greater loads for Wheelers Automotive customers. It features a new, larger asymmetrical leaf-spring design that also contributes to improved ride and handling characteristics.

Stronger frames, suspension systems with greater weight ratings and enhanced powertrain systems contribute to the Silverado HD’s class-leading towing and payload capability: an amenity that Wisconsin drivers don’t need to compromise on.

Helping the new 2011 Chevrolet Silverado HD trucks deliver their best-in-class capabilities to drivers is a new version of the workhorse Duramax 6.6L diesel and Allison 1000 six-speed automatic transmission powertrain combination. The Duramax 6.6L is more powerful and durable and the Allison 1000 is stronger and helps enable new features, including the exhaust brake system. Together, this improved version of a proven combination is also expected to deliver segment-best fuel economy.

Wheelers Automotive Has The Silverado

The venerable Vortec 6.0L gas V-8 with variable valve timing returns to the new 2011 Chevrolet Silverado heavy-duty trucks, available at Wheelers Automotive, along with a strengthened version of the Hydra-Matic 6L90 six-speed automatic transmission. This combination delivers excellent performance and efficiency, with a greater emphasis on low-rpm power.

A new feature on Silverado Duramax-equipped models, available at Wheelers Automotive, is an exhaust brake system. This driver-selectable feature uses the turbine control of the variable geometry turbocharger and the compression of the engine to generate backpressure, slowing the vehicle without applying the brakes. It is a smart system integrated with the cruise control feature and varies the braking to account for the grade and vehicle load that drivers may encounter across Wisconsin.

Brake feel and performance is greatly improved with the 2011 Silverado HD trucks. The standard four-wheel disc system is completely revamped to deliver smoother, more immediate and confident-feeling performance. Four-wheel, four-channel ABS is standard on all single-rear-wheel models and a three-channel system is standard on dual-rear-wheel models.

Longer wheelbases – ranging from 133.6 inches (3,395 mm) to 167.7 inches (4,259 mm) – and wider front/rear tracks enhance the ride and handling characteristics of the 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD, giving them a greater feeling of smoothness and control.

Comprehensive safety and functional technology: The 2011 Silverado 2500HD and 3500HD models have a comprehensive roster of safety features and functional technologies that include StabiliTrak electronic stability control system on all single-rear-wheel models, larger, four-wheel disc brakes with standard four-wheel ABS, available rear backup camera, segment-exclusive OnStar 9.0, and many more.
