Configurations and Customization
There are so many configurations available for the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 that it almost seems like a waste not to buy new. If you decide to go for the used 2010 truck, you’re going to be stuck with whatever configuration the previous owner picked out. On the other hand, a 2016 Silverado can be had with one of three different cabins and a variety of bed sizes. That way, if you need backseat space or extra cargo room, you’re all set.
When it comes to customization, there’s much more to choose from. You can shop a long list of Silverado trim models that range from ordinary workhorse to pure luxury. That means that if you want soft leather upholstery, it’s all yours. If you want to save money, you can skip the upscale features and go for the classic work truck.
You can also stock the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 with a wide range of tech features. Many of these weren’t available in used 2010 truck, so you can forget about seeing them in used models. Check out the in-car Wi-Fi hotspot, for example, which lets you surf the Web on up to seven devices. Then there’s the MyLink infotainment system. Its excellent smartphone integration features let you stay in touch with friends by making hands-free calls. You can also MyLink to stream your favorite tunes from devices.
Trade-In Value
When you’re shopping for a full-size truck, it’s a good idea to keep your future prospects in mind. If you buy new, your trade-in value is automatically better than if you buy used. That’s why it’s important to think about how long you plan to keep your Silverado 1500. If things keep going like they have been, you can bet future Silverado models will offer even better power and fuel consumption. Choose the 2016 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 now, so that when you buy your next new model, you can put less money down.
