If you haven’t had a pickup truck before, now is a good time to experience the excitement of driving one. Pickup trucks are powerful, capable, and dependable. No matter how big your task is, the right truck should be able to handle it. But some pickup trucks are more attractive options than others. The models from Chevrolet are legendary, and you can bring one home now.
At the dealership of Jay Hodge Chevrolet, we can show you why it makes sense to not only purchase and drive a truck but a Chevy pickup truck. Our sales team can answer your questions about why you should buy a truck. Stop by and explore what we have to offer and what awaits you when driving a pickup truck.
When you think about trucks, these traits first come to mind: powerful engine and tough and strong body. You’ll be able to do just about anything and go almost anywhere in a pickup truck. No terrain is too demanding, and no environment is too harsh.
Chevy pickup trucks are available in multiple engine options, each one providing impressive horsepower and torque. Take the 2024 Chevrolet Silverado, for example. It puts out up to 495 pound-feet of torque and accelerates up to freeway speed quickly. The Colorado generates 430 pound-feet of torque, which is excellent for a midsize model. Meanwhile, the full-size Silverado HD is a beast. It will blow you away with its power, as it produces a mind-boggling 975 pound-feet of torque.
When you need to tow and haul heavy loads, Chevrolet pickup trucks are up to the task, too. You’ll be able to carry just about anything in the bed of your truck and tow other vehicles, including RVs and boats. The Silverado HD is the king of towing and hauling in the Chevy family. This full-size, heavy-duty pickup truck can tow up to 36,000 pounds and has a maximum payload of nearly 7,300 pounds. The Silverado can haul up to 2,260 pounds and tow as much as 13,300 pounds. Even the smaller Colorado has a maximum towing capacity of 7,700 pounds.
Trucks do well in everyday driving on highways and city roads, no matter the weather or road conditions. Another reason why people buy pickup trucks is for their off-road capabilities. If you want adventure, a rugged Chevy pickup truck can take you across bumpy, rocky, muddy terrain. Steep hills and even wet roads won’t be a problem in a Chevy truck.
Chevy pickup trucks come with four-wheel drive, an essential feature for off-road fun. You’ll appreciate the other off-road features, such as the off-road-cut bumper, 33-inch tires, and multimatic dampers. The durable Silverado is perfect for rough roads, as it has excellent suspension and rear differential. There are also tow hooks and recovery hooks available to help pull people out of tough situations. The Colorado has 35-inch tires and underbody protection with steel skid plates.
There are many benefits of driving pickup trucks and using them for both work and play. Whether you need a pickup truck to carry big loads, tow other vehicles, or go on off-road adventures, you need to check out a Chevrolet model. Chevy pickup trucks can tackle any challenge and help you feel at ease behind the wheel or as a passenger.
Now is the right time to shop for a new Chevy pickup truck at Jay Hodge Chevrolet in Sulphur Springs, TX. We’re waiting for you to come by and test drive the new Colorado, Silverado, or Silverado HD. Each is an amazing model that you won’t want to pass up to see for yourself.
