SILVERADO HIGH COUNTRY ROLL UP for sleek style & full bed usage Looking for a pickup that oozes rugged rich? Chevy's new Silverado High Country does just that with a heavy touch of western flair on the inside and chrome on the outside. The crew-cab High Country is Chevy's first premium truck, placing it a step above the LTZ and in line with Ram's Longhorns and Ford's King Ranch luxury models. Its distinct double-bar chrome grille, 20-inch wheels, halogen projector headlights and saddle-brown premium-leather interior – complete with High Country logos embroidered on the headrests – sets it apart from all other Silverados. "There's a Western flair to the High Country's cabin that reflects the truck's polished yet rugged stature," says Maria Rohrer, Silverado marketing director. "It's a passenger environment that's equally adept when working a ranch during the day and stepping out for the evening." High Country editions start at $45,100 for the 5.3L, 2WD models, which is $20,425 over the base model work truck. The High Country 4WD models start at $48,675. Add the optional High Country Premium Package and 6.2L V-8 and the tab can easily top $54,000. No need to remove – Stores neatly behind the cab Seals on all 4 sides to protect cargo Custom fit for all popular truck models Lockable to protect cargo Made in the USA Retail starting $ all its might to pull along a 9,600-pound load, the 6.2L manages it quite easily. Unloaded, the 6.2L accelerates with ease and maintains 70-mpgplus highway speeds with nothing more than a whisper of touch on the throttle. The six-speed automatic basically sleeps in overdrive with the bigger motor when it's set on cruise control. Not so with the 5.3L. And when you do decide to play with the HEMIS and Fords, GM's bigger EcoTech comes on hard, leading the pack with a very enjoyable exhaust note while its smaller stablemate fights hard to keep up with the competition. What's that age-old adage among racers: There's no substitute for cubic inches? Size, combined with some really fine technology, makes the 6.2L EcoTech a good engine option to consider if you are in the market for a ½-ton GM as your primary work truck. at 500 53 Call or go online to order (888)449-1896 accesscover.com Tested.
