WT
On the 2019 Chevroley Silverado 1500, the base model trim level is going to be labeled WT. Just because it is the base model, doesn’t mean you won’t be getting good features. With a 4.3L EcoTec V6 engine and six speed automatic transmission standard, we can already tell it’s going to be a customer favorite. On this trim level, you get blacked-out grilles/bumpers/trim, Chevrolet graphic grill/tailgate, and a dozen durable tie downs.
Custom
The next trim level up, the Custom, gets the same engine and transmission, but a few new upgrades that are sure to make an impact. With the Custom trim, you get a new 7” touchscreen equipped with Apple CarPlay and Adroid Auto, LED tail lights and beautiful 20” aluminum wheels in a silver painted finish.
Custom Trail Boss

RST
Closely resembling the LT package, the RST trim level had a few upgrades that were very noticeable. You still get the great 2.7L turbo engine and 8 speed transmission that produces over 300 horsepower, but the exterior got a little refresher. What you will notice the most are 18” wheels, LED lighting, and color matched bumpers, door handles, and center grill bar.
LT Trail Boss
Receiving a new Ecotec3 5.3L V8 engine, the LT Trail Boss is going to be tone of the most powerful and most trail ready trims available in 2019. Built with the work site in mind, the LT Trail Boss gets a 2” factory lift kit, the Z71 off-road package, 18” wheels painted in black, off-road tires, and a 2 speed transfer case.
LTZ
If you are wanting to get the same amount of power as the LT Trail Boss, but would rather get more luxurious features, the LTZ package is going to be the way to go. Built to show off, it features 18” wheels in a bright silver paint, perforated leather seats, advanced trailering features, and exterior chrome accents tastefully added.
High Country
For those who want to have the most fully loaded 2019 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 available, the High Country trim level is as good as it gets. This trim level gets the powerful 5.3L EcoTec engine that produces 355 horsepower just like many of the others but it comes with many more luxurious features.

Don Nester Chevrolet Reviews 2018 Chevy Colorado
When you want a truck, consider the benefits of a 2018 Chevy Colorado. You can dress it up for date night or go rugged for time on the trail. A look at the numbers can tell you more about its capability as a good commuter and an excellent hauler. It’s definitely a favorite at Don Nester Chevrolet dealer Saginaw MI.
Colorados have many best-in-class capabilities, but the big talk this year is about Active Tow. During hook up, it helps you align the Colorado with a trailer. This reduces the chances of a mistake during this tricky maneuver. Another exclusive is the CornerStep. You won’t find this helpful feature on the Colorado’s non-GM rivals.
Most Capable Midsize Truck
The Colorado earns its keep with a trio of powerful engines. Leading its four-cylinder class, the Colorado powertrain generates 200 horsepower and 191 pound-feet of torque. Rivals lag behind by as much as 41 or 48 horsepower. That’s a significant difference when you want to tow, and it speaks volumes about the Colorado’s capacity for dealing with heavy payloads. Sweetening the deal, fuel economy is best in class.
Fuel economy is excellent for the V6 as well. It has cylinder deactivation, cutting back to four cylinders when six aren’t needed. Leading its class, the Colorado engine generates 308 horsepower. That’s 28 more horses than its nearest midsize competitor.
Last but not least, the Colorado has a turbodiesel edition. At 181 horsepower, it still has an advantage over the Colorado’s four-cylinder rivals. However, the real boost is its 369 pound-feet of torque. Extremely thrifty, it has best-in-class fuel mileage and best-in-class tow ratings.
Your Choices
Colorados come in work truck (WT) and LT editions. The LT edition offers a lane departure warning and a forward collision warning. Z71 and ZR2 are adventure models with more attitude and serious off-roading equipment.
On all of these trucks, technology includes a standard rearview camera and Bluetooth streaming audio. OnStar offers WiFi, which can be useful at remote work sites or campsites. Is your current truck this much fun? Value your trade.
As you decide which Colorado is right for you, you’ll want to know its basic cab and bed configuration. Chevy beds have a two-tier loading system that allows you to split your cargo into sections for organization or protection. Thirteen tie-downs provide extra security during travel. The large bed is designed so that you can leave the tailgate down and haul eight-foot long items. You’ll choose from:
- Crew cab, 5’2″ bed
- Crew cab, 6’2″ bed
- Extended cab, 6′-foot/2″ bed
There’s much more to explore, but it’s best done from behind the wheel of the 2018 Chevy Colorado. Get answers to your questions at Don Nester Chevrolet dealer Saginaw MI.

Safety Standards
Ten airbags offer advanced protection for Sonic passengers. That’s four more airbags than the majority of cars, including most of the Sonic’s subcompact competitors. To keep out impact, a high-strength steel cage is part of the cabin’s structure. Crash avoidance is stressed by Brake Assist, Hill Start Assist, and other functions of the Stabilitrak system. There are exterior safety details, too, such as the available power-heated side mirrors, automatic headlights and foglamps.
A rearview camera is on board to watch for danger behind you. You can also get a lane departure warning to help the driver avoid side swiping another vehicle. A forward collision warning makes sure the driver realizes that traffic is slowing or stopping too quickly for the Sonic’s current rate of speed. Get a loan for your new car.
Choosing the Right Sonic for You
Sonics come in sedan and hatchback styles with a variety of trims. This allows shoppers to pick the type of car that suits their lifestyle. If you choose the RS package, you can go sporty with a decklid rear spoiler and muscular rocker moldings.
