A Star is BORN? All-New 2020 Chevy Silverado HD Truck Goes BIG & Tows Very HEAVY! 

For what these new trucks cost you could buy a used Kenworth if you need to tow all that.

Only that trucks mother could love the look of it’s front end.

2020 Silverado HD - the child of a one night stand between a 2008 base model F250 Super Duty.....and a Pontiac Aztec. I know what you're thinking, and yes, the F250 had just gone through a bad breakup and was on the rebound.

Congrats on your learners permit Andre.You get that CDL you wont need Mr.Truck to babysit anymore...lol...

That 6.6L gasser was SCREAMING. They really do need to put 4.10’s back in it.

Goes 5mph says it feels like it has plenty of power lol 😂.

The new Chevys are SO. DAMN. UGLY. I'd like to see the GMC because those always, without fail look better than the Chevy these days.

Mr.Truck: "they need to bring back 4.10 gears" Andre: *nervously looks at rpm gauge and nods* lmaooooo

Seriously guys stop with the background music...

Unfortunately 6.6 will flop , but on the bright side we can steal them for our hotrod builds in about 2-3 years!

8:56 . . . . . You startled MR TRUCK ! ! ! LOLOL

Give it a few years and this truck style will look really good. Anytime a new design is released it looks weird, but then everyone gets used to it.

Nathan was right the work truck looks the best out of all the trims

At what point should you say I think I might need a semi, just the thought of a former semi truck driver.

Used to not like the look but after seeing it in person im digging it

They might as well put a step on the front bumper as well. Now if they had a full tilt hood and fenders you might be able to check the oil and fill the bug juice bottle.

Watch when 2035 comes they gonna start looking like semi trucks 😂😂

Haha a giant anvil that says 35,500 pounds. That's so awesome lol.

Do the folks that designed and approved the look of the front end still have a job ? Also, salt, snow and ice will destroy the block heater outlet

All those bells and whistles are great till they break! Pretty soon nobody's going to know how to drive

The best RU-vid Channel for TRUCKS! Thank you! A+++

The big problem that I have with the newer technology in these vehicles today is where they think for you. Such as when an object flies in front of the vehicle like a rock and the computer takes over and puts on the breaks real hard while going down the highway and you just might get rear ended in the process. Nothing safe with that in my opinion.

Yet again, towing numbers mean nothing if it can't last 300,000 trouble free miles... It damn better for the price!!!

That gas truck sounded like it was working HARD. That seems like a light load/flat terrain tow rig. Which is fine, plenty of folks need a lighter duty 'HD' truck to haul a racecar trailer, round bales, small-ish (well, not huge) tractors/equipment, smaller campers, etc. I just hope no one buys one expecting to tow near the max capacity in hilly terrain, and for it to last. Continuous 4-5,000 rpm under load is asking a lot of a normal (non-commercial, non-competition) engine, to say nothing of the trans temperature.

I came here to read the comments about the HD being ugly. I mean, I can't argue. It even makes my ex wife look good.

If you don't like the truck looks why comment? Most of people talking trash about the truck can't afford the truck. TBH Ford, Ram, and Chevy/GMC are making great trucks. Just choose one that fits your needs and wants. Stop wasting energy on being negative.

Pulling that much weight with no air brakes crazy

Great video as always, nice numbers on the truck. The biggest problem with Chevrolet is they do not honor their warranty. My Duramax injectors went bad at 50,000 miles and they told me "sorry, we only warranty the mechanical portion of the injector, not the electronic part" (all one assembly) and told me it would be $4,500 to replace them. A call directly to GM gave me the same result. I immediately traded my Chevrolet 3500 in for a Ram 3500 Cummins built truck and never looked back. I will never own another GM ANYTHING, I don't care if it could tow 100,000 lbs.!

I actually like the custom trim, but I’d rather go with the GMC.

Those trucks look good from the side, but from the front. I just dont know. I really do not like that grill and lights.

I really like the camera system. I wish they would let you option things like the camera system on the lower trims.

I come from a family where by the time the boys are 12 years old they’re ready to drive dump trucks for their grandpa things are different in the country lol

Cost of these pickups are getting out of control as well.

6:32 . . . . . . That work truck actually looks amazing in that color. SURPRISINGLY GOOD

The designers must have been smoking DMT with Joe Rogan when they came up with that front end

I was one of the engineers that worked on that frame. Lot of weight to strength optimization went into that design.

Has GM figgered out how to keep TWO headlights lit at the same time yet??

the grille kind of looks like a throwback to the trucks from the 60s

In this day and age, a 2WD, reg. cab, long box dually truck is just a "tug".

I've driven GM products for 42 years, and GM trucks for the past 30 years. Some of them have been very good, some of them have been not so good. They've ALL been good looking vehicles. That being said, these 2020 HDs are the ugliest trucks I have ever seen. Will there be an option for a paper bag the drive can wear over his head so as not to be recognized in public? Come on, GM! Just because we need a heavy hauler doesn't mean we don't want to look good doing it! Go back to the drawing board and come up with a better body for 2021, or I might have to give my business to Ram!

These trucks are HIDEOUS!

My dad and I towed a little over 32000lbs (with trailer) in his 2019 3500 (single track non dually) denali HD duramax. It had a factory 6 inch lift and it didn't even squat, it handled it like a champ. You could barely tell it was there unless you needed to do heavy braking quickly. Props to all of the gm engineers, I'm pretty sure the GMC and Chevy trucks are like the firebird and camaro, just different fascia right?

Go up the grapevine in California.

Block Heater Plug/Socket: Love it. Long, long overdue. Good on GM for bringing this little feature to market.

Honestly may as well just buy a semi

I like how they didn't let even Mr. Truck drive the two fully loaded duallys outside of the closed course. Granted that ridiculous anvil might have been over height. But still hey come drive these trucks, but we can't let you drive them on the road with other people.

Too bad the front ends of these trucks are absolutely HIDEOUS. WTF were they thinking?

First off, I’ll say that I drive an F-150. My last truck was a 2016 2500HD. I love my ford, and I loved my HD. They both have their ups and downs. My Chevy, while it may have not been the fastest (faster than a Ram with the 5.7, but only because of the gearing, but not faster than F-150), the HD could pull hard with a load behind her. My HD knew how to put the power to the ground. My F-150 is lightning fast with 375/470, but feels wobbly pulling the weight, as it isn’t as heavy. I never pushed the Chevy beyond its limits, as it never broke down, although I did pull 13k pounds, and it pulled hills like nothing. I wouldn’t try 13k with my F-150, but it gets 22 mpg on the average. I really like Chevys lineup, same as Ford. I believe they can do amazing things, especially if they were to put their company’s together, as they are the only two true American automotive companies remaining. Does anyone out there agree with me?

What happened to the GM rep that said in your videos a year or two ago that GM would probably never have a 1- ton truck that hauls over 30k pounds because a vast majority of customers value comfort more than max towing and never tow more than 28k anyways? Silly to have 1-ton pickup truck that tows more than 30k anyways. Just leads to more idiots towing loads they shouldn’t be and doing so illegally, since they don’t have class A licenses/ CDL’s. Simply buy a bigger truck if you need to tow more than 30k anyways, like a 45/5500 truck that is made to handle that weight with better wheels, tires, axles etc. I don’t suspect these new 3500HD trucks will hold up well over time If used to 90% of their max weights.

I hope yr CDL will not push Mr Truck away! Great video as always.

That is one ugly truck 😔 the last heavy duty looked so much better

Sure hope these HD's look better in person than on screen.

They need to bring the 8.1l back. Or a true big block

Interesting that they went with 15% tongue weight. We know they moved the 5th wheel 2 inches back from TDC of the diff; so is the higher tongue weight and low centered load masking something?

GM and all manufacturers are putting customers in DOT eye sights. When any pick up truck can tow in combination over 26,000 lbs it now becomes big trouble. 1) any truck with a gvw at 10,000lbs the driver must have a medical card. This is for everyone. 2) When any truck is towing over 26,001 lbs driver must have a CDL license .. These new trucks are going to get people into trouble with DOT and most states are demanding pickups into scale houses all over the East coast lately. I own a dually and i have sighns on my truck stating for personal use and i have been escorted to scale houses many times. Yes i have a medical card.

Dang I work at the bend airport and saw you guys filming this I thought it was just a Chevy commercial. I wish I knew it was you guys I would of said hello.

Stupid and super unsafe to tow loads 25,000lbs or more Just buy a international 4400 crew cab so you’ll be safe all around with the proper setup and braking

Can never go wrong with a good ole allison trans

That weight capacity is only for regular cab ,single rear wheel shortbeds not the dually

The front end of theses trucks are top notch

These won’t pull 35k very long. Pickups aren’t build to pull these loads everyday.

That 35,500 is such a bright color making me think that it’s a edit

they should really do a “texas editon”for the 2500hd and the 3500hd !

I love that white custom truck 😍

Good luck Andre, you'll get it, easily 👍🏻

You all helped me make a decision last year when I picked up my 3.0 duramax 1500 Chevy. The truck was everything I hoped for and expected. Looking to trade up to an HD now due to buying a different camper and enjoying and appreciating your work on testing vehicles. I think its pretty clear from all the videos I have watched that for our new 5th wheel and doing a lot of mountain and grade stuff we need to stick on the diesel side even with the $10k price difference.

I'd like to have a new gmc 6.6 gas truck one day but right know my 2001 gmc 2500hd with the 8.1 gas and Allison trans is hard to beat. Best of a I've got 4.10 gears. So all in all my 01 pulling wise is still setup better than the new 6.6 gas truck.

When are they fixing the front end?

GM needs to turbo the 6.6 gas.. it would easily produce 550 hp and 600+ torque

Am I the only one who likes these

I’ve been waiting for this video!

Thanks for everything guys

In the real world you're going to need to spend 70 grand on a or more on a diesel dually. It's ridiculous. Pretty soon you're gonna be better off just buying a tractor - trailer if you you need to tow that much! But great video as always.

Immediately knew this was in Central Oregon. Our mountains are by far the most easily identifiable of all the states, specifically from the high desert side of the range. My favorite trucks in one of my favorite places, gotta love it! Edit: Additionally, I LOVE this look on these trucks. Most are hating on it, and feel they're incredibly ugly, but I think just the opposite. They look sleek and snazzy. If anything is ugly, it's that signature tail light setup they got going on. They look like they went back to their late 2000s tail lights. I like me big tail light, not tapering, slender ones. Big tall rectangles are the style of tail lights I like most.

That's fine you can tow all that weight but try stopping it

Congrats on the CDL permit! I just got my CDL through a company out here in Northern California and now I'm waiting to start working. 👍🏼

Such an awkward front end.

the block heater integrated into the fender is fantastic...I bet Ford and Dodge will follow their lead with that one

TFL >>> Mr. Truck I agree with you on the 4.10 rear-end; it would have been more appropriate.

No doubt that now that GM and Ram have released their power and towing capacity numbers it won’t be long until Ford releases the numbers for the 2020 Super Duty trucks. But first Ford will go back and do some final tuning so they can be sure to beat the Ram and take the lead with the highest torque rating and tweak the suspension and other components so that they beat General Motors max towing capacity of 35,500 lbs even if it’s only by 100 lbs. Ford has been doing this for a long time now. Wait until the competition shows it’s hand and then go back and make some final adjustments and then come in and beat everyone. They’ve consistently done it with the F Series and with the Shelby GT500 they’ve done the same thing over the last few model releases. Ford will do what it has to in order to be on top of the truck market.

Dang the regular cab dually looks beefy!

Didn't the tundra pull the space shuttle?

That gasser was screaming with not a huge load. 7.3L Ford gas for the win.

The dually single cabs front end kinda looks like a semi. I really liking these trucks

Damn that thing is ugly

Ok so here’s a recap: -Gas engine is lackluster and screams but doesn’t do much in the wow department -10 speed is smooth but not really talked about -They never stop talking or having filler music long enough to actually just HEAR THE GAS ENGINE OR DURAMAX/10 Spd shifting! Why do all these RU-vid guys feel the need to always be talking or have loud music the entire vid? I never have understood that.

Amazing it only took Chevrolet 50 years to get the horsepower back that a 1970 pick up had with the 454 or 396

Now slam the brakes!! This will give a new meaning "Take an anvil for your headache".

That’s a lot of weight. How many miles will it last with that weight behind it? That will be the true test. Time. Test of time.

GM shot the sales potential of the 6.6 gas in the foot by not offering it with the 10-speed auto. But it's quite the age of trucks we're living in when someone complains that 6 speeds is not enough. My grandpa worked his farm just fine in a truck with a stovebolt 6 and 3 on the tree.

I dont think it will tow 35,000 uphill

I got my class B CDL last year. Totally worth it.

Great video as always. Any idea on max conventional towing for diesel dually, if you wanted to set one up with a dump body, no fifth wheel...

The red one looks really good

One of the ugliest front ends ever produced on a vehicle

Holy moly that truck is ugly!!

I'll keep my 2004 Silverado 2500 HD. It may have 436,000 miles and counting but it's still better looking than that UGLY front end on the 2020. I'm GM all the way but who designed this Mars Rover looking crap? I have my wife driving my 1999 Silverado 1500 with 306,000 and counting. We both feel that it's the best body style ever... Currently hoarding these trucks for parts so as to save them from the crusher.

They really should have made that block heater plug a standard plug so you could just use an extension cord.

Lolol super flat surface and that thing was shaking 😂😂
