2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 vs. the Competition
The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is one of the most popular vehicles in America today — and once you’ve driven one, it’s easy to see why. The new 2024 Silverado 1500 is available now at Banks Autos in Concord, New Hampshire, and it offers plenty of great advantages over its competitors from Ford, Ram, and other brands.
2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 vs. 2024 Ford F-150
If you’re on the fence about what truck to buy, your first move should be to look at the two bestselling trucks in the country: the Silverado 1500 and the F-150. And once you take a look at how these titans stack up, it’s clear that the new Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has plenty of major advantages over Ford.
Ease of work
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is one of the finest trucks for towing and hauling that you can buy today. When it comes to making use of every inch of the truck bed, it’s the best bar none. The new Chevrolet Silverado 1500 features a standard Durabed, which offers more standard cargo capacity than any other full-size pickup truck today. What’s more, Chevrolet uses high-strength roll-formed steel, which gives you more confidence than the F-150 and its aluminum bed.
As if that’s not enough, the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 gives you a more functional tailgate option than Ford. The Multi-Flex Tailgate offers six-way functionality, including multiple load stops, a full-width step, and a functional work surface perfect for midday paperwork and coffee breaks. Ford recently launched a Pro Access Tailgate for the F-150, and its most advanced tailgate ever merely has a swing-out door. By our count, that’s 1/3 the functionality of the Silverado 1500 and the Multi-Flex Tailgate.
Advanced assistance
While we’d all love to claim to be exceptionally at ease behind the wheel every time we tow a trailer weighing over 10,000 pounds, the truth is that it can be a stressful experience without a little help. And the Silverado 1500 offers quite a lot of help. To start, its 14 available camera views far exceed the viewing options you get in the Ford F-150, and include a useful hitch view and transparent trailer view. Then there’s Super Cruise™. Not only does it work on more than 400,000 miles of North American roads, it also works with a trailer tow. Compare that to Ford’s equivalent technology, BlueCruise, which only works on 130,000 miles and only without a trailer. The Silverado is a clear winner here.
Chevy gives you better bang for your buck
At the low end, the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 and 2024 Ford F-150 are similarly priced, with the Silverado having a slight edge. However, that edge only grows as you go up the trim levels. Starting with the Silverado LT, you get a 13.4-inch-diagonal touch screen, bigger than the F-150’s largest available display (12 inches).
At the top of the line, the Silverado 1500 High Country starts at under $63,000, while the F-150 Platinum costs nearly $65,000, and the Limited goes upward of $83,000.[1] Yet, sitting inside them, you’d be hard-pressed to feel the difference in design and material quality. Then there are the off-road models, where again, the Ford F-150 Raptor and Raptor R are far more expensive than the Silverado 1500 ZR2 and ZR2 Bison, with little in the way of performance and features to justify it.
If you’re in the market for a versatile, powerful, and affordable truck, look no further than the winner of this comparison: the Chevy Silverado 1500. Get a closer look at the 2024 model at Banks Autos in Concord, New Hampshire!
2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 vs. 2024 Ram 1500
In the perennial truck battle, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 stands tall versus the Ram 1500. Whether you spend a lot of time on the job or on the road between jobs, you’ll find that superior comfort, hardworking technologies, and a powerful diesel engine make the Chevy truck a tough opponent for anyone trying to go toe to toe with it.
Best-in-class features
In many ways, the 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 doesn’t just beat the 2024 Ram 1500 — it beats every other full-size half-ton truck. On Crew Cab models, over 44.5 and 43 inches of front legroom and headroom, respectively, are top of the class. On the other hand, the Ram 1500 barely clears 40 inches for both of those metrics.
The Silverado 1500 also offers up to 89.1 cubic feet of cargo volume in its Durabed, which vastly outmatches the Ram’s 74.9 cubic feet. Even with the short bed, the Silverado 1500 bed is still roomier: 71.7 cubic feet vs just 57.5 cubic feet for the Ram. You won’t find any other 2024 truck that beats the Silverado here.
Exclusive work-friendly tech
All modern trucks pack more punch than most drivers need. But when it comes to getting actual work done quickly and efficiently, they’re far from equal. For example, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is offered with a six-function Multi-Flex Tailgate, which can be used as anything ranging from a workbench to an inner load stop and is far more useful than the Ram 1500’s basic 60/40 tailgate. And its 14 available camera views, which include a transparent trailer view, do a better job of showing drivers their surroundings than the Ram’s more limited camera technology.
Then there’s Super Cruise™. This feature enables you to drive the Silverado hands-free on more than 400,000 miles of road, even while towing. But the Ram 1500 doesn’t offer any kind of hands-free driving feature, let alone one that works while moving a trailer.
Powerful diesel engines
The 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 is offered with a turbodiesel Duramax® six-cylinder engine that combines exceptional towing power with fuel efficiency you simply can’t beat. Better yet, the Duramax’s maximum 495 lb-ft of torque kicks in at under 2,000 rpm, which means you can feel the truck’s full towing power just about as soon as you put your foot down. This can make the Silverado 1500 feel even more powerful — and be even more useful — than trucks that, on paper, seem like they should have the upper hand. This is one of the advantages of diesel — but the Ram 1500 doesn’t offer a diesel engine option of any kind.
There are still so many reasons to choose the Silverado 1500 over the Ram 1500, like its Google built-in infotainment system or excellent 13.4-inch touch screen. Visit Banks Autos in Concord, New Hampshire, to get an even closer look at this winning truck!
2024 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 vs. 2024 Nissan Titan
When it faces off against the 2024 Nissan Titan, the Chevy Silverado 1500 does more than hold its own. With more towing power, better off-road capability, superior tech features, and higher-end luxury options, the Silverado 1500 is far and away the best truck for Concord drivers.
More engines, better towing
The 2024 Nissan Titan is offered with just a single engine: a 5.6-liter V8 rated at 400 horsepower and 413 lb-ft of torque. The Silverado 1500 is offered with four powertrains: a TurboMax™ turbocharged four-cylinder that delivers best-in-class standard torque, two robust V8s, and a Duramax® Turbo-Diesel.
It’s not just about quantity, but quality. With its V8, the Nissan Titan maxes out at just 9,660 pounds of towing capacity. Meanwhile, the Chevy Silverado can tow up to 13,300 pounds with either the 6.2-liter V8 or the Duramax®, and the latter provides much superior fuel economy.[2] It’s a big win for the Silverado.
Superior off-roading performance
The Silverado 1500 and Nissan Titan each offer trim levels focused on off-road performance. For the Silverado, options include the Trail Boss, Z71, and ZR2 trims. For the Titan, there’s just the PRO-4X. Once again, the Silverado offers more options, making it easier to tailor your purchase to your needs and budget. And once again, the Silverado’s options are far superior. The ZR2’s class-exclusive Multimatic DSSV™ spool-valve dampers and steel skid plates will take you further than the Titan’s Bilstein shocks, and its approach and departure angles — not to mention ground clearance — are well clear of the Titan.
Smarter technologies
The 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 is loaded with smart technologies that the 2024 Nissan Titan simply can’t touch. It has more camera views: up to 14 unique views vs a single 360-degree camera. It has larger infotainment displays: 13.4 diagonal inches in all models vs. 9 inches in the Titan if you spring for the upgrade. It has standard wireless smartphone connectivity, which is only offered as a pricier option in the Titan. And it has Super Cruise™, which enables you to drive hands-free on over 400,000 miles of road, even with a trailer in tow! The Titan has no hands-free driving tech at all, let alone one that works while towing.
The Titan’s lackluster showing extends to its luxury appointments as well. The Silverado High Country’s open-pore wood trim and sumptuous leather upholstery are a cut above the Titan Platinum, which also has the unenviable claim to the least amount of Crew Cab rear legroom in the class.
The 2024 Silverado 1500 doesn’t just beat the 2024 Titan — it blows it out of the water. Make sure to visit Banks Autos in Concord, New Hampshire, for a closer look.
