Should you choose a 2022 Chevy Silverado HD or Ford Super Duty truck? Both of these heavy-duty trucks can move major payloads and tow oversized trailers. But which is best suited to your needs? Our comparison guide has the answers you seek.

Friendliest Price: 2022 Chevy Silverado HD

The Silverado HD comes at a slightly lower price than the Ford Super Duty, with a starting price tag of $35,300. By comparison, the entry-level F-250 Super Duty model starts at $37,495. And, in addition to its lower price, the Silverado HD also gives you a longer list of standard features.

Comfy, High-Tech Trucking: 2022 Chevy Silverado HD

With its classic, rugged styling and wealth of high-tech features, the Silverado HD is our first choice for everyday driving. Choose Chevy’s heavy-duty truck for a very long list of standard features, including a central infotainment touchscreen, complete smartphone integration (via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and two USB ports). And the Silverado HD also offers high-end options (think leather-trimmed upholstery, heated seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control).

The Ford Super Duty trucks are a close runner-up, however. Ford’s heavy-duty pickups also offer lots of high-end options, from leather upholstery to camera-heavy towing assistance features. However, the Super Duty standard lineup isn’t quite as feature rich, sticking to basics. For example, USB ports are standard but you have to upgrade to a higher trim model to enjoy Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

Standard Power: 2022 Chevy Silverado HD

The Silverado HD comes with the more impressive standard powertrain, a 6.6-liter gas-powered V8 (401 horsepower, 464 lb-ft of torque) and a six-speed automatic transmission. To haul the heaviest trailer, however, you’re going to want the 6.6-liter Duramax turbodiesel V8 engine (445 hp, 910 lb-ft), which is paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission.

Although the Ford Super Duty’s standard engine isn’t quite as impressive by comparison, it’s still pretty powerful in its own right. The base 6.2-liter gas-powered V8 (385 hp, 430 lb-ft) is also paired with a six-speed automatic transmission.

Ford offers two engine upgrades for its heavy-duty trucks. A 7.3-liter gas-powered V8 (430 hp, 475 lb-ft) is available to increase hauling capabilities. And a 6.7-liter turbodiesel V8 (475 hp, 1,050 lb-ft) can take tow ratings to new heights.

Max Towing and Hauling: 2022 Ford Super Duty

Properly equipped, the 2022 Ford F-450 can tow max loads of 37,000 pounds. The F-350 is the model that can haul the biggest payloads, with max ratings of 7,850 pounds, depending on configuration and equipment.

Of the heavy-duty Chevy trucks, it’s the Silverado 3500 HD that can tow and haul the most weight. Depending on how you configure yours, this heavy-duty truck can haul max payloads of 7,442 pounds. Max trailering is also impressive; these trucks can tow up to 36,000 pounds. As you can see, the most capable Silverado HD only trails slightly behind its Ford counterparts.

Choose Your Heavy-Duty Truck

Both of these all-American trucks can move major weight, but the 2022 Chevy Silverado HD gives you the most advantages. Choose one of these Chevys for the friendliest price on a comfortable, tech-savvy, heavy-duty truck.

Which full-size truck can better handle your business, the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD or Ford F-150? Our comparison guide is here to help you figure out which all-American truck belongs in your driveway.

Friendly Price: 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD

When it comes to the entry-level trim models, both the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD (starting at $30,400) and the 2022 Ford F-150 (starting at $29,990) will give you a pretty friendly price.

However, as you climb the trim levels, you’ll find that the Silverado gives you a better bang-to-buck ratio. For example, its posh High Country model (starting at $54,700) delivers lots of luxury features at a lower price than its upscale F-150 counterpart, the Limited (starting at $75,835).

Standard Power: 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD

The Chevy Silverado LTD is dropping last year’s base V6 engine in favor of the more powerful 2.7-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine (310 horsepower, 348 lb-ft of torque). If you want the strongest performance at no extra cost, the Silverado delivers.

Back on the 2022 Ford F-150, the standard engine is a 3.3-liter V6 (290 hp, 265 lb-ft). It’s not as powerful as the Silverado LTD base engine by a long shot. However, like the Silverado LTD, the F-150 offers a variety of engine options, allowing you to upgrade your performance as needed.

Maximum Efficiency: 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD

Thanks to its optional turbodiesel engine, the Silverado Limited earns very impressive EPA ratings, supplying up to 26 mpg combined (23 city/31 highway).

The 2021 Ford F-150 earns its best EPA ratings with the available hybrid powertrain. With it, this Ford truck earns up to 25 mpg combined (25/25 mpg). However, this is also the F-150’s most expensive powertrain option, so it may be a while before you get a return on your investment.

Max Towing: 2022 Ford F-150

The F-150 has a slight edge here. Equipped with the optional EcoBoost V6, Ford’s full-size truck can tow up to 14,000 pounds.

With the available 6.2-liter V8 engine and the Max Trailering package, the Silverado LTD can tow max loads of 13,300 pounds. It can’t quite match the F-150’s maximum capabilities, but it can still handle most drivers’ trailers.

Choose Your Full-Size Truck

Although the 2022 Ford F-150 has a lot going for it, the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD is the better choice in many ways. Choose Chevy’s full-size truck for a great price, a powerful, efficient performance, and impressive towing capabilities.

The 2022 Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia are both three-row, midsize crossovers. And they both have a parent company in common in General Motors. But is one the same as the other? Our comparison guide is here to help you drive home in the crossover SUV that you’ll love the most.

Lowest Price Tag: 2022 Chevy Traverse

Although the Traverse and Acadia have very similar price tags, the Traverse can help you save a little bit of cash. Chevy’s three-row midsize crossover starts at $33,700. Meanwhile, the Acadia raises the starting price to $34,800.

Exterior Styling: 2022 Chevy Traverse

These midsize crossovers might have a lot of features in common, but it’s easy to tell them apart from the outside. We think the Traverse has the upper hand here, with its smooth lines and elegant signature lightning.With its wide grille, available roof rails, and available chrome trim, the Traverse looks both refined and rugged at the same time.

The GMC Acadia looks more rugged than anything else. This crossover SUV’s front end will almost remind you of a truck, with its broad grille, rectangular lights, and square stance.

Standard Power: 2022 Chevy Traverse

The Traverse actually comes standard with the more powerful engine, a 3.6-liter V6 (310 horsepower, 266 lb-ft of torque). You’ll find it in every Traverse trim model at no extra charge.

With the Acadia, you get a standard 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (228 hp, 258 lb-ft). The Acadia also offers a 3.6-liter V6 (310 hp, 266 lb-ft), but only on higher trim levels, such as the sporty AT4 and luxurious Denali. Unfortunately, you’ll have to pay a lot more to access its powerful performance.

Modern Features: It’s a Tie!

You’ll see very little differences between these models’ lists of standard features (the Traverse comes with a 7-inch touchscreen infotainment interface and the Acadia’s is 8 inches, for example). Both models treat you to tri-zone automatic climate control and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Standard safety aids include blind-spot monitoring and lane-keeping assist.

And both the Traverse and Acadia treat you to upscale options. Climb the trim levels for upgrades like leather seating, remote start, heated seats, and more.

Your New Three-Row Crossover

Most three-row crossover SUVs have a lot in common, but the 2022 Chevy Traverse and GMC Acadia share more features than most. But the Traverse ultimately gives shoppers more of what they want, including a standard V6 engine. Choose the Traverse for the best bang-to-buck ratio.

Until the upcoming redesigned truck hits the market, the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD remains the strongest, most advanced Silverado ever. This full-size, light-duty truck is ready for action and it’s here right now!

What is the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD?

The Silverado LTD or Silverado Limited 1500 is essentially the 2022 version of last year’s truck. That is, it’s an official placeholder that’s available until the upcoming redesigned Silverado 1500 comes out.

Compared to the 2021 Silverado 1500, the 2022 Silverado LTD drops the base V6 powertrain in favor of the turbocharged four-cylinder engine. By comparison, the turbocharged four-cylinder is both more powerful and more efficient than the outgoing base V6. Otherwise, this Silverado truck will look very familiar.

Why choose the 2022 Chevy Silverado LTD?

If you don’t have time to wait for the upcoming redesigned Silverado 1500, then the Silverado LTD is the right choice for you. Grab one of these all-American trucks because you’re in need of a powerful performer with impressive off-road potential (thanks to options like four-wheel drive).

You’ll also love how many options are available for these full-size trucks, including three cabin sizes (regular, extended, and crew) and three bed sizes (the 8-foot, 6.5-foot, and 5-foot-8-inch bed). There are also eight trim models, making it easy to balance your budget with the comfort and convenience features that you crave.

Which engines are available?

The main difference between the 2022 Silverado LTD and the previous version of this full-size truck is that the new model comes standard with the thrifty turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The 4.3-liter V6, which was standard on previous trucks, has been discontinued.

The Silverado LTD is available with one of four engines:

• 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder engine (310 hp, 348 lb-ft)
• 5.3L V8 engine (355 hp, 383 lb-ft)
• 6.2L V8 engine (420 hp, 460 lb-ft)
• 3.0L turbodiesel inline-6 engine (277 hp, 460 lb.-ft.)

For the thriftiest ride, choose the turbodiesel engine, which helps the Silverado LTD earn up to 26 mpg combined (23 city/31 highway). For the most capable ride, choose the 420-horsepower V8, which can help you tow and haul major weight.

What’s the difference between the 2022 Silverado LTD and Silverado?

The upcoming 2022 Silverado 1500 will be fully redesigned, and, like we mentioned previously, the 2022 Silverado 1500 LTD is a carryover of last year’s model. While the Silverado LTD is intended to be a placeholder for drivers who need a new Silverado right now, the upcoming redesigned truck will be stronger, with new tech features, and an all-new off-road-dedicated trim model, the Silverado ZR2.

The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse puts strength, comfort, and best-in-class cargo space at your fingertips. Chevy’s midsize crossover SUV combines the family friendly (three-row seating, smartphone integration) with the adventure-ready (available all-wheel drive, tow-friendly performance). Let’s check it out.

What’s new for the 2022 Chevrolet Traverse?

• Newly standard driving aids, including blind-spot monitoring and forward collision mitigation
• New infotainment system, which features the new wireless versions of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
• Redesigned front fascia with new head and tail lamps

Which 2022 Chevy Traverse should I choose?

One of the greatest things about the Traverse is that it offers six trim models, giving drivers the ability to balance their budgets with the luxury features they crave. Choose between the base LS, mid-grade LT Cloth, stylish LT Leather, sporty RS, upscale Premier, and top-of-the-line High Country.

Here’s a look at each Traverse trim model’s highlights.

How does this three-row, midsize crossover drive?

You can expect a similar performance from all six trim models, because each comes with the same powertrain. A 3.6-liter V6 drives the front wheels with 310 horsepower and 266 pound-feet of torque. However, all-wheel drive is optional, which means a sportier performance in off-road situations and maximum traction on dangerously icy roads.

If you have a boat at home, the Traverse also offers sturdy towing capabilities. This midsize crossover can tow up to 5,000 pounds, depending on trim level and equipment. With that kind of muscle, you can even tow a mini camper or a family of Jet Skis.

When can I buy a 2022 Chevrolet Traverse?

Right now! The 2022 Chevrolet Traverse is available to special order, or you can swing by Burlington Chevy, where our friendly staff will give you a tour of our Traverse inventory. Give us a call if you have any questions at all!

With its athletic powertrain and best-in-class towing capabilities, the 2022 Chevy Colorado is tons of fun. What else do you need to know about this midsize truck? Let’s take a closer look.

What’s new for the 2022 Chevy Colorado?

The Colorado doesn’t see any major changes for 2022, but it does look a little sharper with its new front-end design. You’ll also see a new “Chevrolet” logo stamped across the tailgate.

Which 2022 Chevy Colorado is best?

Of the Colorado’s four trim models — the base Work Truck (WT), mid-range LT, sporty Z71, and adventure-ready ZR2 — the one that’s right for you strikes a balance between what you want and how much you want to spend.

What’s under the hood? How much can the 2022 Chevrolet Colorado tow?

The 2022 Chevy Colorado offers three powertrain options:

• 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine (200 horsepower, 191 lb-ft of torque) + six-speed automatic transmission
• 3.6L V6 engine (308 hp, 275 lb-ft) + eight-speed automatic transmission
• 2.8L four-cylinder turbodiesel engine (181 hp, 369 lb-ft) + six-speed automatic transmission

You’ll find the four-cylinder engine on extended cab models. The powerful V6 engine is standard on crew cab models and optional with the extended cab. Rear-wheel drive is standard, but you can add optional four-wheel drive to any Colorado to create an extra rugged ride.

With the turbodiesel engine, the Colorado tows max loads of 7,700 pounds, a best-in-class figure. Depending on body style and equipment, Colorado trucks with the V6 engines can tow a trailer weighing up to 7,000 pounds.

Which is better, Ford Ranger or Chevy Colorado?

Chevy was the first American automaker to revive its midsize truck, the Colorado, for a modern audience. Ford followed suit with the Ranger, but, if you ask us, Chevy has really cornered the midsize market.

Compared to the Ranger, the Colorado offers more power via its V6 engine. And the Colorado is also the right choice for off-roading. Whereas the Ranger doesn’t offer any off-road-ready trim models, the Colorado provides two, the Z71 and ZR2.

The Colorado also scores higher in terms of interior comfort. While the Ranger can feel bumpy, the Colorado manages to create a smooth ride over most surfaces. All of this makes the Colorado the clear choice.

Which full-size SUV should you drive home, the 2022 Chevy Tahoe or the Cadillac Escalade? These three-row SUVs treat you to rich interior comfort, lots of space, and truck-style utility. But having so much in common makes it tough to choose just one. Let’s take a closer look at each of these SUVs.

Friendly Price: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

Compared to the Escalade, the Tahoe helps you save big. This three-row SUV starts at just $49,700, transporting your family in comfort with an impressive list of standard features, including cutting-edge infotainment and driver safety aids.

As a luxury SUV, the Escalade’s starting price is much steeper, coming in at $76,295. You can actually get a fully equipped Tahoe (around $73,000) — with features that include leather upholstery and heated seats — for less!

Interior Luxury: 2022 Cadillac Escalade

High price aside, you will love the Escalade’s upscale cabin. Every model comes standard with full leather upholstery and two rows of heated seats. And every Escalade is as savvy as it is luxurious, with standard remote start and tri-zone automatic climate control.

Like the Escalade, the Tahoe is always roomy and supportive, with generous seat cushioning and a ton of head and legroom. As you climb the trim levels, you’ll find lots of the same luxury features, but they don’t come standard.

Fuel Economy: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

The Chevy Tahoe offers three engine options:

• 5.3L V8 engine (355 hp, 383 lb-ft)
• 6.2L V8 engine (420 hp, 460 lb-ft)
• 3.0L Duramax turbo diesel engine (277 hp, 460 lb-ft)

The Cadillac Escalade offers your choice of the aforementioned 6.2-liter V8 and turbo diesel engines.

In spite of essentially using the same powertrains, the Tahoe actually achieves slightly better EPA ratings. With the turbo diesel engine, the 2022 Tahoe earns up to 24 mpg combined (21 city/28 highway). The same engine helps the Escalade earn up to 23 mpg combined (21/27 mpg).

Max Towing: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

In addition to maximizing fuel economy, the Tahoe can also tow a bigger trailer. That makes it the right choice for families with especially heavy boats or roomy family campers. Properly equipped, the Tahoe can tow up to 8,400 pounds. The Cadillac Escalade comes close, but can ultimately only tow max loads of 8,200 pounds.

Your New SUV

If you want a capable family hauler that maximizes fuel economy or tows the biggest boat, the 2022 Chevy Tahoe is the best option. And the Tahoe even gives you all of these excellent qualities at the best price, saving you thousands of dollars on the cost of a new full-size SUV.

Can’t tell the difference between the 2022 Chevy Tahoe and Ford Expedition? The more you know about these full-size SUVs, the easier it will be to choose the one that’s right for you. Let’s dive in.

Friendliest Price: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

Although Ford hasn’t announced an official MSRP for the upcoming 2022 Expedition, we expect the Tahoe to be the more affordable option. You can take home a Tahoe starting at $49,700. We expect the Expedition to start around $51,000.

Powertrain Options: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

With three engine options, the Tahoe is the more flexible SUV. For example, if you want to maximize fuel economy above all else, the Tahoe lets you do so with its turbo diesel six-cylinder engine and EPA ratings of up to 24 mpg combined.

• 5.3L V8 engine (355 hp, 383 lb-ft)
• 6.2L V8 engine (420 hp, 460 lb-ft)
• 3.0L Duramax turbo diesel inline six-cylinder engine (277 hp, 460 lb-ft)

The 2022 Ford Expedition offers three versions of the same engine. When you upgrade to the top-of-the-line Platinum, its turbo V6 delivers a slightly speedier ride. And the new high-output version of this V6, available for the Timberline trim or with the Stealth Performance package, really gets going with 440 horses and 510 pound-feet of torque.

• 3.5L turbo V6 engine (375 hp, 470 lb-ft)
• 3.5L turbo V6, Platinum models (400 hp, 480 lb-ft)
• 3.5L turbo V6, Timberline or Stealth Performance package (440 hp, 510 lb-ft)

Max Towing: 2022 Ford Expedition

To tow the biggest camper, choose the 2022 Ford Expedition. Properly equipped, Ford’s full-size SUV can tow up to 9,200 pounds, a best-in-class figure.

On the other hand, the 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe is also pretty capable. You can use Chevy’s family-friendly SUV to tow max loads of up to 8,400 pounds. That figure should suit most drivers with boats or small campers at home.

Availability: 2022 Chevy Tahoe

The Chevy Tahoe is available right now! Whether you want to special order one of these family-friendly SUVs to take one for a test drive, you can do so whenever you please. Unfortunately, the 2022 Ford Expedition isn’t scheduled for production until the first quarter of 2022, forcing you to wait (or, alternatively, to stick with the previous 2021 model year).

Your New SUV

Although the 2022 Ford Expedition is big on muscle, the 2022 Chevrolet Tahoe is the better all-around option. Choose Chevy’s three-row SUV for a lower price, longer list of powertrain options, and the ability to drive one home today!
