• Both offer comprehensive ‘bumper-to-bumper’ warranty coverage for up to 36 months or 36,000 miles, but the Silverado 2500HD offers a longer corrosion perforation warranty, which endures for 72 months instead of 60.

• In 2020, KBB selected the Silverado HD for a major honor. According to their calculations, it offers the best resale value for any full-size truck! That could make a major difference for your business.
