Yahoo Autos Chevrolet Announces 2019 Silverado Pricing
Pickup trucks continue to post the biggest sales numbers for American auto manufacturers, and there’s no sign the momentum will slow down. Chevrolet, GMC, and Ram all have brand-new offerings, and Ford continues to refine its bestselling F-series. Following slow drips of information about the powertrains, trims, and packaging for the 2019 Silverado, General Motors has announced pricing for its biggest-volume vehicle, with the mainstream LT trim dropping by $700 and its upper-level High Country increasing by $1000.
The Work Truck remains the cheapest Silverado available, but Chevrolet has changed its configuration. For 2019, the standard two-wheel-drive work truck with the 4.3-liter V-6 now is a regular cab with a long bed and costs $29,795. That combo on a 2018 model was $30,195. However, the 2018 model also offers a Work Truck with a regular cab and a standard rear box for $29,795, so the truck’s base price effectively remains the same. The 2019 Work Truck also can be ordered with a double cab and a standard bed for $33,695.
Moving up from there, the base formula for the remaining trims is a double cab with a standard bed and two-wheel drive. The Custom powered by the 4.3-liter V-6 opens at $36,095, while the LT with a standard turbocharged 2.7-liter inline-four starts at $38,395 ($300 less than the 2018 model). The RST also with the 2.7-liter turbo starts at $40,295, and the LTZ with the 5.3-liter V-8 opens at $44,495.
The Custom Trail Boss, available only with four-wheel drive, starts at $40,995, while the 4x4 LT Trail Boss is $47,395. All of the above trims can be upgraded from a double cab and a standard bed to a crew cab and a short bed for $2400 extra. The top-trim High Country with the 6.2-liter V-8 and the 10-speed automatic can only be ordered as a crew cab and short bed and starts at $54,495, $1000 more than the 2018 model.

Chevrolet did not specify how much it costs to upgrade from two-wheel-drive to a four-by-four setup, but for 2018 models, it was about $4000 on most trims. The company was also mum on the price of the Z71 Off-Road Equipment package, which is standard on Trail Boss models but available on all models. Additional details should be available soon.
