Whether you’re in the market for a reliable workhorse or a trusty family vehicle, consider a used ChevroletSilverado from Quirk Chevrolet Of Bangor. Both the Silverado 1500 and Silverado HD feature plenty of power, family-friendly versatility, and the capability you need for the toughest jobs and wildest adventures. Here are a few reasons to consider driving home in your very own used Silverado.
Everyone knows that used vehicles cost less than their brand-new counterparts — and a used Silverado can help you save money on a variety of fronts. First off, thanks to its lower sticker price, the Silverado will cost you less sales tax. You won’t need as big of a loan to finance a used truck, so you would pay less in interest over the life of the loan. And since your Silverado has already depreciated in value, insurance premiums may even be cheaper.
With the money you save by buying a pre-owned Silverado truck, you could be able to afford a higher trim level, additional luxuries, and fun accessories. For instance, for the same price as a new mid-level Silverado, you could drive home in a High Country trim with heated and ventilated front seats, leather upholstery, and a top-of-the-line infotainment system.
If you’re an adventurous off-roader in Maine, you may be able to afford a used Trail Boss truck. These models come with an automatic rear locking differential, a two-inch suspension lift, Rancho monotube shock absorbers, and skid plates. Plus, you could apply your savings to customizing your Silverado with our wealth of available accessories, such as a truck bed tent, a tonneau cover, or an additional camera to keep an eye on your cargo.
Every Silverado is built for the long haul. So, when you buy a used model, you’re making a smart investment that will last for years to come. The Silverado has earned a reputation for being one of the longest-lasting pickup trucks on the road. When properly maintained, a Silverado can last well over 200,000 miles. Even if you purchase a used Silverado with plenty of miles on the odometer, your new workhorse has a whole lifetime ahead of it.
With a pre-owned Silverado, you won’t have to worry about your truck losing value from the occasional scratch or dent — it has already endured some wear and tear. So, you can feel free to tackle the roughest trails or take on the hardest jobs without worrying about dents and dings.
When properly equipped, many recent models of the Silverado can tow as much as 13,000 pounds and haul up to 2,280 pounds. Many models also boast up to 89.1 cubic feet of truck bed cargo room — more than any competitor in its class. And if you choose a newer used model, it could even come with the innovative Multi-Flex™ tailgate and a weatherproof Kicker® exterior audio system.
The Silverado 1500 has evolved over the years — but even older forms of the Silverado are exceptionally well-equipped.
While the Silverado had long been a top trim level of the ChevroletC/K series pickup trucks, this all-American classic debuted as its own model back in 1999. It boasted the innovative Vortec™ V8 engine, a range of bed and cab options, and plenty of practical features that made it an instant hit.
The second generation, which arrived in 2007, boasted more power, a streamlined design, and greater efficiency. It was 2013 when the third generation arrived, complete with industry-leading features like smartphone connectivity. The fourth generation debuted in 2019, bringing with it a wealth of advanced camera technologies, a range of powertrain options, and plenty of upscale comfort features.
