2012 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Crew Cab Work Truck Pickup 4D 6 1/2 ft Standard Features
2012 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD Crew Cab
KBB.com Review
If you’ve been a longtime Chevy HD fan and it’s time to trade-in your old outfit, the 2012 Chevy Silverado HD’s numerous improvements will help keep you a Chevy loyalist. If you’re an old Ram (formerly Dodge) or Ford guy and you aren’t happy with your current rig, you might be pleasantly surprised just how capable the Chevy Silverado HD really is.
If you’re looking for the most powerful diesel engine in an HD truck, Ram’s Cummins diesel engine takes top honors (torque, not horsepower). Those who like a little more upscale flair in their trucks might find the 2012 Chevy Silverado HD’s styling and interior décor somewhat on the conservative side. A Ram Longhorn or Ford F-350 King Ranch might be more to your liking.
