Aside from the official announcement of a top-notch bragging right for a best-in-class towing number of 36,000 pounds for the 2021 Chevy Silverado HD, there are now four special editions to add your own personal touch to the lineup of 2500 and 3500 ¾ and 1-ton pickup trucks. As trucks themselves have seen such a steep rise in popularity over the past decade, many buyers right here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse are looking for ways to stand out a bit in the crowd and arrive in a rig that announces its presence visually right away. Here's a quick look at the four awesome new editions and the various features they offer:
The Carhartt Special Edition was first introduced at the 2018 SEMA Show and drew inspiration from both Detroit-based namesakes. Carharrt saw its beginnings in 1889 and is known worldwide for its very durable and long-lasting work gear. This special edition starts with the foundation of a Silverado 2500 LTZ Crew Cab paired with the Z71 Off-Road Package, fierce out of the gate with Rancho Shocks, hill-descent control, and skid plates. The exterior is then dipped in the Mosiac Black Metallic and sees gold pinstripe highlights. It boasts 20-inch wheels with all-terrain tires and unique body-color parts. Inside you'll find trusty badged all-weather floor mats and two-tone leather seats that stand out with headrests flaunting embroidered Carharrt logos.
The Midnight Edition speaks volumes about style and superiority at just one glance: it is available on LT and LTZ Silverado HD models and adds more black on the grille bar, grille insert, skid plate, badging, and wheels. Standard are 18-inch aluminum wheels that can graduate up to 20-inch, and a 2-inch factory suspension as well as the Z71 Off-Road Package. The all-black appearance is contrasted perfectly with red recovery hooks, and other properly darkened-details come in the form of black bumpers, black exhaust tips, and black off-road assist steps.
The Z71 Sport Edition boasts athletic stance by beginning with 3 colors for exterior options: Red Hot, Summit White, and Northsky Blue Metallic. Other key bits of exterior accents see signature black coating the badging, skid plate, mirror caps, hood vent, and wheels. Buyers have the choice of 18-inch wheels with mud-terrain tires or 20-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, both seeing a cloaked-hue finish in black. Beginning with the Z71 Sport Package, LED headlamps, a body-color Chevrolet Grille bar with chrome grille inserts, body-color rear and front bumpers and a spray-on bedliner are added to the mix. Bold and aggressive, this is the special edition choice for many of our service and mechanic professionals.
The Z71 Chrome Edition is available on LT and LTZ trims, adding a very distinctly flashy touch to the skid plate, grille insert, side steps, mirror trim, and badging of the truck. This package is available in Summit White or Black and rolls on 20-inch machined aluminum wheels with Grazen metallic accents. For anyone wanting to show off their great new truck around town that still has a need for a durable and tough model, this is a great choice for a Special Edition that conveys an ideally polished and well-accented finish.
