2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 VS. 2020 Ford F-150

As heavy-duty workers know, when it comes to choosing a truck, it is important to do the right thing and learn about the pros and cons of each. You must also take the time to establish your needs and know the characteristics of the vehicle before making a final choice. This exercise will help you get to know the 2020 Ford F-150 and the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500.

Christin Automobile in Montreal, near Repentigny and Laval, knows its vehicles inside out, but they also know how to compare themselves with their rivals to better understand the market.

The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado or the 2020 Ford F-150?

When it comes to full-size trucks known for their reliability and durability, the Chevrolet Silverado has always been a champion, especially in Canada where it has been the truck of choice for builders for over 100 years. Needless to say, the 2020 edition of this popular model lives up to that tradition. This truck is for hard-working people who don’t want to waste their time with a vehicle that isn’t up to the task at hand.

So when you need a truck to meet your engine and transmission needs, look no further than the 2020 Silverado 1500. Seven engine and transmission combinations and more power output from 8 cylinders than the F-150 give the Silverado a distinct advantage. Plus, the Silverado’s Trail Boss surpasses the F-150 as the most affordable light truck in its class with over 400 horsepower. The Silverado RST with the new 6.2-litre engine pulls more than any other light pickup, including the F-150, with a towing capacity of 13,400 pounds.

Towing heavy loads has become even easier with the Silverado. The towing system featuring Transparent Trailer View is the most advanced towing technology available on light trucks. It offers 15 unique views that allow you to see traffic, pedestrians and obstacles behind and around your trailer. The Transparent Trailer View also uses two special cameras to provide a clear view of the rear of your trailer. This gives you peace of mind when changing lanes, making tight turns, reversing and more. The Ford F-150 does not offer this level of capability.

The two new engines in the Silverado achieve disconcerting power and efficiency. The new 6.2-litre, eight-cylinder engine produces 420 horsepower and 466 lb-ft of torque and is mated to a 10-speed transmission. When efficiency is more important, the new Duramax Turbo Diesel 3.0 delivers 277 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque while outperforming the Ford F-150 in terms of fuel consumption. It delivers 10.2 L/100 km city and 7.2 L/100 km hwy.

The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado’s vocation is obvious to those who’ve seen one up close. This full-size truck is distinguished at first glance by a muscular design at the front of the vehicle that continues to the sides with massive horizontal lines. The hood is sculpted to create a relief that reflects the vehicle’s strength and capabilities. As for the cabin, it is well soundproofed thanks to triple-sealed doors, a noise-reducing exhaust system and an aerodynamic windscreen. Get ready to experience a level of comfort unexpected for a vehicle of this kind when you sit in the Silverado 2020’s dual-density foam seats in both the front and rear seats.

In short, the 2020 Silverado 1500 easily wins the game over its F-150 rival.
