Indeed, the Chevy Silverado can help construct roads and bridges. Front porches and back decks. Things that matter. Things that last. But the most important thing we’ve built over the last 90 years is a bond with truck owners. A commitment to giving them what they need so they can do what needs to get done.
It’s no wonder Cars.com named it a 2010 “Best Bet.” Silverado. The most dependable, longest-lasting full-size pickups on the road.
At our Chevrolet dealer near Fort Worth, every proven Vortec V8 engine available is capable of generating over 300 horsepower and 300 lb.-ft. of torque. Or step up to the available Vortec 6.2L V8 that generates 403 horses and 417 lb.-ft. of torque, making Silverado the most powerful half-ton crew cab.
Not surprisingly, all that power is complemented by a lot of payload capability – 1,980 lbs. for Crew Cab and 1,925 lbs. for Extended Cab models with the available MAX Trailering Pack.

2011 Silverado Keeps Fort Worth Drivers Safe
StabiliTrak Electronic Stability Control System helps you keep on the road and in control. The control module compares your steering input with the vehicle’s actual response and then, if necessary, makes small, individual brake applications to help you keep on track:
- -It automatically intervenes when it senses under-steer (plowing), over-steer (fishtailing) or loss of lateral traction
- -The safety cage is designed to help preserve occupant space in the event of a collision
- -Crush zones, located in the front body structure, are designed for a “progressive crush” during a frontal crash. This design absorbs and channels crash energy in a controlled manner
