Seattle Chevrolet dealer Pierre Chevrolet is excited to present its latest line of the award-winning 2011 Chevy Silverado 3500.

Seattle, WA -- (SBWire) -- 04/06/2011 -- Pierre Chevrolet, a Seattle Chevrolet dealership, is proud to announce it was the award-winning 2011 Chevy Silverado 3500 in stock and read to test drive. Seattle Chevrolet fans will be impressed by the Silverado’s power and convenience that makes it one of the best pickups on the road today. Motortrend gave it the “Truck Of The Year” award, and rightfully so.

Its Vortec 6.8-liter V8 engine produces 360 horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque. Upgrade it to a 6.6-liter Duramax diesel engine and get 397 horsepower and an astounding 765 pound-feet of torque, the most of any Chevy full-size pickup. It has a maximum towing capacity of 17,000 pounds and a payload capacity of 5,724 pounds. There’s a reason Jalopnik.com called it “the most honest interpretation of the term ‘truck’ on the market right now.”

The 2011 Silverado uses a completely redesigned suspension that makes it sturdier and more capable than ever before. The fully boxed frame and all-new front and rear suspensions are the biggest reasons for the huge increases in Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings. The new independent front suspension allows each front wheel to react independently to rough terrain, helping keep each wheel in a vertical position and more firmly planted on the road.

More Features To Please Seattle Chevy Shoppers

The 2011 Chevy Silverado comes with GM’s renowned OnStar system. OnStar with the Directions & Connections Plan (standard on LT and LTZ for the first six months) includes Turn-by-Turn Navigation. Simply push the OnStar button and an advisor will download directions to the vehicle and an automated voice will call out every turn.

The Silverado comes with a variety safety features as well. The Stabilitrak system monitors the driving situation at all times and provides optimal power to individual wheels as necessary. Working in conjunction with StabiliTrak, the Trailer Sway Control feature (single rear wheel models only) senses trailer sway and automatically applies the truck's brakes to help reduce sway and help maintain control.

The brakes have been completely upgraded and now use larger rotors and calipers. With Intelligent Brake Assist, the calipers are preloaded. When the system senses a panic-braking situation, the brakes can be fully applied more quickly.
