Overview & Reviews

The value-priced Work Truck package is now available on both regular and extended cabs. Base models pick up cruise control, a sound system, chrome rear bumper and chrome wheels. An automatic transmission is now standard on LS models, and the V6 is no longer an option in this trim. Other updates include new polished aluminum wheels and 265/70R16 tires with either black sidewalls or raised white lettering. The Quadrasteer option no longer requires the buyer to order trailering equipment. There's also a new tonneau cover, and inside, you'll find underseat storage. Finally, Chevrolet has deleted the Silverado's passenger-side outside door lock.

• Roomy extended-cab models, strong V8 engines, innovative features.

• Cheap interior materials, questionable build quality.

  Z71 - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By edhaslett - December 21 - 2:00 am

  In shop once for Cruise control (couple other times for bed liner and stuff). Got about 5k on the truck and so far no big problems. Air leaks and squeaks already though, guess it will suck at 50k. A thirty thousand dollar car should be tighter longer.

  Great truck for light duty or no duty - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By JayOne - December 10 - 10:00 am

  The V8 4.8 engine is great for all family needs. Great acceleration even with a packed cabin of up to 6 adults or a loaded bed. Engine response is suprisingly nice at street or highway speeds. The ride quality is smooth for a truck as long as youre not expecting sedan-like results; you aint going to get it! Interior door panels are loose and brake and gas pedals have rusted only after 1 month of purchasing (same on my dads 04 Sierra). Carpeting feels loose when vacuuming as if it is only held down at the ends. If some of these minor details dont get you down, this truck is by far the best deal for the money.

  Reality - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Trapezoid Joe - December 7 - 7:46 pm

  This is a solid truck. I see nothing wrong to complain about. When I shopped I looked at the Ford150 and Dodge Ram. The F150 has more options but it was $3000 more. F150 was also more refined. If you can afford it the F150 is a better buy if you want the most refined truck with the most options/features. The Dodge Ram was $1000 cheaper but much less refined. The Ram had the exact same interior (plastic) and clothe as my 98 Dodge Neon which is very very cheap. For the money the Silverado is by far the best buy using value as the measure.

  Not Bad, Could be better... - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By EKP - November 27 - 6:26 am

  As a former Ford owner, I am a little disappointed. My Z71 has already been in the shop for over a week with misfiring issues in three seperate cylinders. Chevy has repaired, although they didnt give me a good explaination of what caused the problems. I LOVE the truck (ride, styling, 18MPG+, Power), but the reliability is clouding my mind. Only time will tell...

  Great Work Truck - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500

  The Silverado Work Truck is an excellent truck for anyone looking for a no frills vehicle at a fair price.

  Good 4x4 - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By CP - October 27 - 6:00 am

  I purchased used with 40,000 miles for the 4x4. I live in a semi-rural area and the roads dont get treated. I have the 5.3 V8, and G80 locker. For the two months Ive driven, it has worked like a charm. Been using the AutoTrac 4x4 which is the button system that goes into 4WD Auto, which is AWD. Had to dig the wheels out a little when I drove into 3 high snow in my driveway. I rocked the truck back and forth a couple of times and was out. I get around 20 mpg on country roads and highway. I dont drive heavy footed, usually 65-75 hwy. Only thing that I find annoying is the wipers cant be lifted off the windshield when it snows, because of the hood design. Takes longer to clean the window.

  Buyer beware! - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By Carnie - October 13 - 4:56 pm

  Bought this truck brand new off the lot. 3 1/2 years old and the cylinder head is faulty. $2000+ repair that GM has admitted they knew these cylinder heads were faulty, but they wont step up and help defray repair costs. Truck is starting to rust already and weve had the steering column replaced 2 times so far! I thought Chevys were built to last?

  Hidious Bench Seats - 2004 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By jeprudhom - October 2 - 2:00 am

  The 40/20/40 style bench seat is ungodly uncomfortable. If I had to do it again, I would take GM up on the 24 hour test ride. If I would have done this, I might have considered a different truck.
