It also incorporates double-overhead cams and Active Fuel Management, and flaunts a towing capacity of 9,500 pounds.

The 2022 Silverado has been generating plenty of attention, as it is a newly-revamped truck that displays an adventurous spirit, durable industrial strength, and capable engines such as the 5.3-Liter V8 L84 gasoline model. The exterior saw upgrades throughout the entire trim line, and the addition of the ZR2 model preps this famous truck for a bold run on the trail.

Every new Silverado will get a brand-new front fascia along with lowered headlights and Sand Dune, Dark Ash, and Glacier Blue Metallic paint hues are more available colors to make things visually pop in the color department. Die-hard Silverado fans will appreciate the carrying on of basic core elements such as the roll-formed high-strength steel bed floor construction, 12 standard tie-downs, and the optional Multi-Flex tailgate. Everyone who loves trucks and luxury is going to love the High Country model: it comes standard with open-pore wood trim, leather seating surfaces, and a pristine-sounding Bose audio system.

There are currently 200,000 miles of compatible roads in North America where drivers can use Super Cruise technology that relies on LiDAR to offer hands free driving. When it comes to the ZR2, there is no better vehicle for the trail. Even the placement of the dual exhaust system has changed to ensure minimal damage from harsh terrain while battling the wild!

This study surveys owners of 100 new vehicles on the number of problems that they experience during their first 3 months of ownership.

Drive testing recorded a zero-to-60 mph time of 2.8 seconds, and the quarter-mile in 11.2 seconds with a top speed of 122 mph. 

2022 Blazer Brings Back a Classic With a New Personality

Three years ago, Chevy made waves as the reintroduction of the Blazer was official. The Blazer had not been in the lineup since 2005 when the S-10 was discontinued.

The 2.5-liter inline 4-cylinder cranks out 193 horsepower and is available in front-wheel drive only. The 3.6-liter V6 generates an exciting 305 horsepower and is available with standard all-wheel-drive. The leather-trimmed seats in the Jet Black color and red stitching accents added a touch that pays homage to the Blazer of yesteryear. If your hands happen to be full of textbooks, groceries, or equipment, a quick wave of the foot under the SUV conveniently opens the liftgate.

To help keep you safe, the Blazer comes standard with lane change alert, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, rear parking assist, and a Teen Driver mode. Sleek and stylish, it is the perfect size if you think the Traverse is too big and the Equinox is too small. One of the best things about today’s SUV selection is the wide selection of extra upgrades to give you exactly what you want. Consider adding the Convenience and Driver Confidence Package for some extra features such as remote start, heated front seats, and auto-dimming mirrors!
