CHEVROLET Silverado 1500 - Manual (Page 3)

BUILT TO AN EVEN HIGHER STANDARD.
The challenge: How to improve upon the most dependable,
longest-lasting full-size pickups on the road?* The answer:
Add a 6.0L 345 horsepower VortecMAX V8 engine that
produces 380 lb.-ft. of torque. Build the first full-size hybird
pickup. With another first in its class – the enhanced
available Allison 1000 series six-speed automatic transmission
that’s mated with either the upgraded-for-2006 Duramax
6600 Diesel V8, now boasting up to 650 lb.-ft. of torque, or
Vortec 8100 V8 engines. With a new, boldly styled power
dome hood line on the 1500 Series. In short – the 2006
family of Chevy Silverado pickups are built on a rock-solid
foundation, which was used to set an even higher standard
for full-size pickups today – and down the road. Chevrolet.
For All Life’s Roads.
*Dependability based on longevity; 1981-July 2004 full-size light-duty pickup registrations,
including chassis cabs. Excludes other GM divisions.
