From the daily commute to hauling stuff
back from the home improvement store to making the most of every weekend,
when it comes to getting things done, one truck has certainly made a name
for itself- Silverado. The Right Truck. From Chevy.
From its selection of proven Vortec engines to its available Allison
transmission to its wide selection of cab and bed configurations, and the
new Half-ton Crew there is a Silverado capable of handling almost any task.
Chevy Silverado delivers exactly what you’d expect from a Chevy Truck- the
most dependable, longest-lasting trucks on the road.*
*Dependability based on longevity: 1981-July 2002 full-line light-duty truck
company registrations. Excludes other GM divisions.

James A. Allison founded the Indianapolis Speedway Team Company - the
forerunner of today's Allison Transmission. From those beginnings, the
company has become the world leader in the design, manufacture and sales of
automatic transmissions for trucks, buses, off-road and military vehicles.
As we enter the 21st century, Allison Transmission retains its rich legacy
of technological innovation, product quality and employee dedication. These
qualities have made the company a world leader throughout its more than 85
year history.
