These tie-downs are rated at 500 pounds per corner, allowing your truck to transport large loads of lumber, furniture, rocks, and more.
5. Under-Seat Storage
The Silverado 1500 has an under-seat storage compartment beneath the front bench seat. This provides the perfect space for items that you need to keep close by, but out of sight. Just lift the front seat bottoms to quickly access this cargo area and grab work tools, a first aid kit, or any other essential items.
6. StabiliTrak
StabiliTrak is an important safety feature that prevents your truck from rolling over during emergency maneuvers or when traveling on slippery routes. StabiliTrak stabilizes your vehicle by automatically adjusting the engine torque and brakes when you make a rapid maneuver.
