At Countryside Chevrolet in Franklin we offer an impressive selection of Chevrolet trucks. From the versatile Colorado to the legendary Silverado trucks, our dealership has the perfect truck for your daily life or work needs.
Colorado: The Midsize Choice for Daily Driveability and Weekend Towing
The Chevrolet Colorado is the right call when you want a smaller footprint without giving up real towing strength. For many owners, it's the "do-everything" truck that feels easy to live with, yet capable enough for work trailers, small campers, and off-road weekends.
Engine: 2.7L TurboMax turbocharged inline-four producing about 310 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.
Maximum towing: Up to 7,700 pounds when properly equipped, depending on trim and configuration.
Maximum payload: Around 1,570 pounds on certain configurations; payload varies by cab/bed and options.
Trim lineup: Work Truck, LT, Trail Boss, Z71, and ZR2.
Where it fits: Positioned below the Silverado lineup for lighter commercial use and recreational duty.
Silverado 1500: The Daily Driver That Can Tow Big When Equipped Right
The Silverado 1500 is the half-ton sweet spot: more room, more powertrain variety, and a bigger towing ceiling than midsize trucks, without moving into HD ride and size.
Engine choices (horsepower / pound-feet of torque): 2.7L I4 at 310 / 430; 3.0L Duramax diesel at 305 / 495; 5.3L V8 at 355 / 383; 6.2L V8 at 420 / 460.
Maximum towing: Up to 13,300 pounds when properly equipped.
Maximum payload: Approximately 2,260 pounds, depending on configuration and equipment.
Silverado 2500 HD: The Step Up for True Heavy Towing
The Silverado 2500 HD is built for sustained loads. It's the difference between "I tow sometimes" and "I tow heavy, and I need the truck to feel unfazed."
Engine family: 6.6L V8 gas and a 6.6L Duramax turbo-diesel with HD tuning for substantially higher torque than light-duty powertrains.
Maximum towing: Commonly around 20,000 to 22,000-plus pounds when properly equipped (varies by configuration and package).
HD hardware: Heavier frame rails, reinforced axles, HD springs, and larger brakes designed for repeated heavy loads.
Trailering focus: Heavy-duty trailering packages and stronger hitch options than the Silverado 1500.
Silverado 3500 HD Pickup: Maximum Pickup Towing and Payload
When you need the top end of pickup capability, the Silverado 3500 HD pickup is the heavyweight. This is the truck for big RVs, big equipment, and big responsibilities.
Dual rear wheel availability: Dually configuration improves stability and raises payload potential for heavy trailers and concentrated loads.
Towing ceiling: Higher conventional and gooseneck/fifth-wheel towing potential than the Silverado 2500 HD when equipped accordingly.
Payload advantage: Highest pickup payload figures in the Silverado lineup, supported by reinforced rear suspension and frame.
Silverado 3500 HD Chassis Cab: The Vocational Platform for Upfits
The Silverado 3500 HD Chassis Cab is not a consumer pickup. It's a purpose-built foundation for businesses that need a truck configured as a tool, not just transportation.
Designed for upfits: Built for service bodies, flatbeds, dump bodies, and box trucks.
Higher GVWR and payload potential: Engineered to carry heavy vocational bodies beyond pickup-style use cases.
Commercial-ready systems: Heavy-duty cooling, electrical capacity, and PTO/upfit provisions for continuous-duty work.
Multiple configurations: Cab and cab-to-axle options to match the body you plan to install.
