I am looking to buy a new Silverado in the very near future. I thought I'd check in with you experts to see if there's anything advice you have...things to look for and/or avoid.
Right now I am leaning towards a 1500 4WD Regular Cab...maybe the LS version.
Thanks in advance, Andrew snipped-for-privacy@andrewnixon.com
What options people want are always different. The only thing I would REALLY recommend is the rear locking differencial. If you plan to tow a trailer, get the factory towing package because with it you also get the high capacity air cleaner, transmission cooler and wiring. I actually recommend the towing package even if you don't think you'll need it. It will certainly make it eaiser to sell some day.
Though I didn't see your note before my purchase, I did get they very options you mentioned and am so far VERY happy with it.
I got a 2004 Silverado 1500 4WD Reg Cab Short Bed (Arrival Blue with Dark Charcoal Seats)
I got the Light Duty Power Package (5.8L V8, Locking Differential, HD Traliering) with the Auto Tranny and HD Suspension. Especially nice since they had an extra $1000 Cash back on the LD Power Pack on top of the $2500 cash back for the truck. I actually don't have any immediate plans for towing, but I have always wanted to get a boat and it's nice to have the options available for those times you need it.
I decided to go with the Base Decor since I didn't think the power locks/windows were really worth the extra price.
I actually wasn't necessarily planning on getting the truck yesterday, but they just so happened to have exactly what I was looking for and a good price.
I'm taking it on a short road trip in a couple hours and look forward to it!!
Does your dark charcoal interior have a beigh head liner? My 2003 does and was wondering if that was just a mistake on mine or if they are all like that.
