Review: Here's What You Get With The 6.2 V8 2018 Chevy Silverado High Country

Even though the 2019 Silverado is all-new and redesigned, the 2018 Chevy Silverado is still very competitive in the full-size truck segment. This is the top end High Country trim and nearly fully loaded. The Silverado blends a powerful 6.2 V8 engine with a comfortable cabin, and capability you would expect with good towing/payload. Overall, I was very comfortable with this truck, found most of it nice but some of the interior doesn't quite live up to the price tag. Enjoy this test drive and review. Let me know what you think of this 2018 Silverado in the comments!

    Went to look at the 19s today and didn't like the look or the seats. Wound up with a 18 6.2 like yours. It was quieter then the 19 Ram limited I drove and lots of power. The RAM 10 speed was a little smoother, but not enough to make me take a chance.

    There are two vents under the driver and passenger front seats that blows cold air in the rear cabin. They are small but it does provide some circulation. You have to put the ac for the head and feet to get the air flowing though.

    Even though it’s not the most powerful, I like the 5.0. I like all three, but I prefer naturally aspirated and port/direct injection compared to just direct injection with GM. GMs new “dynamic fuel management” where it can run on just one cylinder occasionally worries me too in the long run. I’ve heard of issues with the newest version of the 5.0 too though. It’s a toss up lol
