Overview & Reviews

Coming off a redesign last year, the 2008 Chevrolet Silverado is unchanged other than the addition of satellite radio as standard equipment and an optional integrated trailer brake controller.

• Refined and very quiet ride, pleasing fit and finish inside, seats are comfortable for long drives, comprehensive list of safety equipment.

• Larger turning circle than most rivals, mediocre interior storage and cupholders.

  Standard box does not align with cab - 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By roscoe - November 12 - 11:20 pm

  I love the handling and performance. It is a sharp truck; sits up high unlike any of the past GM trucks that I have owned. The V6 has plenty of power and the interior is stylish and comfortable. The only thing that I can find troubling is the way the box does not line up to the cab the same on each side. It seems the box is build slightly crooked. I have checked several other new trucks and they are all the same. I would love to hear if anyone else has noticed this imperfection. Other than this I think Chevy has hit a home-run.

  2 years and running! - 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By TH - September 19 - 2:00 am

  Ive had this truck for 2 years now and overall, Im satisfied. Never really been a Chevy guy, Ive always bought imports. My truck before this one was a 06 Titan Crew 4x4. I love the rear doors opening to 170 degrees and the electric side windows. The ride comfort is the best Ive experienced in a 4x4 truck. The exterior styling is great. I was expecting better fuel mileage from this truck. The best Ive got is 17 MPG. I heard that some people are getting well over 20 MPG. Mines is equipped with the 20" wheel package which may or may not be contributing to my poor fuel mileage. The 4 speed transmission took some getting used to coming from the 5 speed tranny in the Titan.

  Not exactly what I expected it to be. - 2008 Chevrolet Silverado 1500
  By onesix - May 21 - 12:32 pm

  I bought my truck slightly used in the summer of 09 with 22K on the dash. I have 86K now. Last summer at 65K my transmission went out on me. And my only indicator was that at highway speeds the RPMs would jump up about 1500 and back down speratically for about a week before it locked up on me on the service road of a busy freeway. Had to drive it in reverse half a mile to a gas station to park it. Also, there have been electrical issues with the drivers side lock not locking when I press the remote and window switches not working. Oh, and Im on my 2nd battery already. Cant figure that one out. Stabilitrak disengages at times. Looking to get out of it already.
