2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LTZ

Posted: Tue. Nov. 19 10:31:43 2019

Just purchased our stylish Chevrolet 1500 Silverado Nov 2019,
rides great with plenty of power, enjoying our new truck! We purchased it from Hardy Chevrolet in Gainseville GA, our best vehicle buying experience we've ever had. nasty awesome!
Traditionally the GM 5.3's have been pigs; unable to produce power to match the Ford Coyote 5.0 engine. This new Gen. 3, 5.3 VVT mated to the new 8 speed transmission is really nice, but still underpowered compared to the Ford Coyote 5.0 and the 3.5 Ecotech twin turbo, but overall, a marked improvement. Still have to ask why the 5.3 is still running two valves per cylinder while the Ford Coyote 5.0 update got it 4 valves.
The interior is still out of 1988, a lot of hard plastic, an outdated display, even when upgraded, and still no standard sunroof as is offered by Ford and Ram. Worse yet, no panoramic moon roof? C'mon GM, it's 2019 and Ford and Ram have had panoramic moon roofs standard for years.
Seats, again, c'mon GM, fabric? Both Ford and Ram have leather standard for similar trim levels. If not for the SCA Black Widow cutomization, I would not have leather. Almost forgot, a manual passenger seat at this trim level, not even Ford or Ram do that. Manual passenger seat, it feels like I'm driving with Marty McFly.
Team GM, overall, a really nice exterior update, but PLEASE, PLEASE update the interior, you need softer materials on the doors and dash. You also really need to work on the display panel, it feels very 1986 Back to the Futurish, old and tired, just like Doc Brown from Back to the Future.
Oh, and the last two BIG must haves moving forward, leather seats at the RST trim level, this should be a must have.
Lastly, and my biggest pet peeve, WHERE THE xxxx is the panoramic moon roof, it's 2019 and no panoramic moon roof in your top selling pick up, c'mon GM, shame on you.
To wrap, the major selling points for the 2019 Silverado 1500 RST are the exterior styling that is nasty awesome, and the SCA Black Widow package that is beyond the WOW factor.
Now the down side, SCA has Black Widow special packages for the Ford F 150 and Ram 1500. Had I been able to find a Ford or Ram 1500 with the Black Widow package, I would have run away quickly, no check that, I would have sprinted from GM like Usain Bolt. Crazy to think that Ford and Ram offer leather and panoramic moon roofs in the same trim levels....oh, and modern large displays and nicer softer interiors....oh, and power passenger seats.
GM, you have a lot more to do besides refreshing the outside appearance. You also might want to be careful, some may interpret this as putting lip stick on the pig. Oppps, you might have made the same mistake on the recently renewed Silverado 2500.
GM, if you need help updating the Silverado 1500, just give me a call, it's not that daughnting a task. The Neanderthals currently working your updates seem to be out of touch with your customer base, you could have/should have hit a home run with this update, you should have gotten the JD Power award, but you blew it by underestimating what customers want in interiors, displays and Oops, GM, step it up, Toys R Us and Sears disappeared from fewer fatal mistakes.
