00:00 After a week of testing and evaluation, the Motor Trend 2007 Truck of the Year is the
00:20 Chevrolet Silverado.
00:22 The Silverado impressed the judges in the way it best met the three criteria for the
00:26 award - significance, superiority and value.
00:38 The judges were impressed with the level of quality GM has achieved with this all-new
00:42 truck.
00:43 The exterior has tight-fitting panels and glamorous-looking paint.
00:48 Inside the interiors, even in the work truck version, look quite luxurious and well-finished.
00:57 On the road, the new Silverado feels remarkably quiet and refined.
01:02 It feels more like an upscale sport utility vehicle than a pick-up truck.
01:09 This new Silverado is such a huge improvement over the old model in terms of refinement,
01:15 ride and quality, yet General Motors has managed to keep price increases to about $300 on most
01:22 models.
01:32 The Silverado is a great all-rounder.
01:34 The entry-level work version starts at under $20,000 and you can order all manner of options
01:40 including all-wheel drive, luxury cabin interiors and different cab sizes.
01:52 Better looks, better build quality, better performance - General Motors has taken a well-proven
01:59 formula with this truck and made it better in every single way.
02:03 And that's why the Chevy Silverado is Motor Trend's 2007 Truck of the Year.
