THE SILVERADO’S EXPANSIVE ENGINE LINEUP
With the LT Trailboss, expect the widest range of engine lineups available. Because of its performance-focused changes, the LT Trailboss opens itself to everything the Silverado offers to help you choose how much power you need when hitting the dirt roads. The standard engine is a powerful, 2.7-liter high output engine delivering 310 horsepower with 430 lb-ft of torque. Every engine comes standard with an 8-speed automatic transmission. The other powertrains that you could choose with the LT Trailboss include:
- 5.3L ECOTEC3 V8 with 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque (10-speed automatic transmission).
- 3.0L DURAMAX Turbo Diesel Engine

Even with the standard engine, and 8-speed automatic – the LT Trailboss is ready to hit the trail. It’s going to give you a tow/haul mode, powertrain grade braking, and a cruise grade braking that downshifts automatically to slow the Trailboss down when you go downhill to keep you at a set speed.
STANDARD PACKAGES: GREAT FOR LONG HAULS AND ROUGH ROADS
The packages that are available for most other trims become standard with the LT Trailboss – and further what the truck is designed for: excursions. For example, the Trailering Package, for example, gives you the edge you may need for some tough jobs. It comes with a trailer hitch, trailer hitch platform, a 2″ receiver hitch, 4-pin and 7-pin connectors, 7-wire electrical harness and 7-pin sealed connector for connecting a trailer’s lights and brakes to the Trailboss. If you need that extra peace of mind on your next great adventure, by choosing the LT Trailboss you opt in for the Chevy Safety Assist with all its additional safety features like automatic emergency braking, forward collision alert, front pedestrian braking, following distance indicator, lane keep assist with lane departure warning, and IntelliBeam which automatically adjusts high beams depending on the time of day and amount of traffic.
