GM introduced the third generation of the Chevrolet Silverado HD2500 in 2006 as a 2007 model-year, and it was an instant success for the American brand.
It was the second generation of the GMC Sierra and the third generation for the Chevrolet Silverado that won the 2007 North American Truck of the Year. The credits went for the GMT900 platform used to build both vehicles. The Silverado was available as a regular cab, extended cab, and crew cabs. The Regular Cab version was the hard-worker of the family.

The design team was asked to make the car more aerodynamic to improve fuel efficiency, which was reflected in the pickup’s shape. With its steeply raked windshield and tighter panel gaps, the results were far better than its predecessor. Usually, nobody cares for the aerodynamic of a workhorse, but every contractor cares for the fuel-efficiency.

Even in the base trim level, the WT (Work Truck), the Silverado 2500 was fitted with an AC unit, AM/FM/XM stereo. There was room for up to three passengers in the front. While the base model featured a simple dashboard layout, the top trim levels featured more amenities.

Its most important advantages came due to the chassis, with front-wheel independent suspension for the entire range. That helped the car behave closer to cars than trucks on the road. It was available with 4x2 or 4x4 versions and a choice of two engines paired to a 6-speed automatic.
