Why Walla Walla, WA Drivers Love the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500’s MultiPro™ Tailgate and ProGrade® Trailering
Lewiston GMC – Why Walla Walla, WA Drivers Love the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500’s MultiPro™ Tailgate and ProGrade® Trailering
For many pickup owners, the moments that matter most happen behind the tailgate and at the hitch. That’s why the 2026 GMC Sierra 1500’s MultiPro™ Tailgate and available ProGrade® Trailering System get so much attention from Walla Walla, WA drivers who split time between weekday work and weekend projects. Together, these two features turn the bed and hitch area into a smarter, safer, and more efficient workspace—without adding complexity. In everyday use, MultiPro™ delivers six clever functions that make loading, stepping up, reaching in, and securing cargo far easier than a traditional single-panel tailgate. Pair it with the available MultiPro Tailgate Audio System by KICKER and your jobsite or campsite becomes a mini hub for tunes, calls, and on-the-go podcasts.
The available ProGrade® Trailering System builds confidence from the moment you prepare to hook up. It layers in smart tools such as camera-guided hitch views, a Hitch Guidance overlay, and a Trailer Side Blind Zone alert when properly equipped. The In-Vehicle Trailering App lets you store custom trailer profiles, run pre-departure checklists, and monitor key statuses like trailer light tests or tire pressure sensors if equipped. Add the integrated trailer brake controller and the truck’s ABS can coordinate with compatible electric trailer brakes for smoother stops. The result is a towing experience that feels polished and predictable—exactly what you want when backing into tight spaces, navigating blind corners, or managing grades on rural roads.
- Six-function MultiPro™ Tailgate: Primary gate, load stop, full-width step, inner gate, inner load stop, and work surface boost utility all week long.
- Available ProGrade® Trailering System: Integrated camera views, Hitch Guidance, and custom trailer profiles streamline every hitch-up.
- In-Vehicle Trailering App: Checklists, status monitoring, and maintenance reminders help protect your time and your gear.
- Integrated Trailer Brake Controller: Calibrated brake force signaling assists compatible electric trailer brakes for composed deceleration.
- Available Camera Views: Expanded perspectives can reduce stress when backing to a coupler or surveying obstacles.
Underpinning these trailering and tailgate tools is a chassis and powertrain lineup that’s ready to work. The TurboMax™ engine’s 430 lb.-ft. of best-in-class standard torque helps you launch confidently with a utility trailer or boat in tow. For regular towing, the available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel with a 10-speed automatic shines with torque-rich response on grades and long stretches. If your weekends involve steep forest roads or uneven surfaces, consider AT4 or AT4X with their off-road suspension hardware—AT4 brings a 2″ factory lift and Rancho® monotube shocks, while AT4X adds Multimatic® DSSV dampers and front and rear e-lockers. Together with the available two-speed Autotrac® transfer case, you can tailor traction and throttle response to the surface beneath your tires.
When loading up gear, the available CarbonPro® composite bed resists dents and corrosion and provides best-in-class short bed cargo volume. Add the available spray-on bedliner for added durability and LED bed lighting to keep your workspace visible after sundown. If you’re heading home late with the trailer, available Adaptive Cruise Control and a 15″ multicolor Head-Up Display can reduce fatigue by keeping the right information in view. And with OnStar® services including Automatic Crash Response, you gain added peace of mind on longer hauls.
For shoppers seeking a high-value truck that maximizes practicality without sacrificing comfort, these targeted features are a compelling reason to choose Sierra 1500. The cabin can be tailored for daily comfort—available heated and ventilated seats, a heated steering wheel, and Bose® premium audio—while the 13.4″ Premium GMC Infotainment System with Google built-in keeps navigation, playlists, and voice assistance a tap away. The net effect is a pickup that’s as easy to live with on a Tuesday as it is capable on a Saturday.
Ready to put these solutions to work for your projects, hobbies, and family travel? Our knowledgeable team is serving Moscow, Walla Walla, and Coeur d’Alene with guidance on the best combinations of bed, cab, axle ratio, towing packages, and driver-assistance tech for your use case. Visit to explore MultiPro™ Tailgate functions in person, test the available ProGrade® Trailering System’s camera views and checklists, and see how the Sierra’s cabin upgrades elevate every drive.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How does MultiPro™ Tailgate make daily tasks easier?
It provides six functions including a full-width step and a built-in work surface, so you can climb in, reach cargo, and secure loads more efficiently than with a traditional tailgate.
What’s included in the available ProGrade® Trailering System?
It integrates camera views, Hitch Guidance, and the In-Vehicle Trailering App for custom profiles and checklists, all designed to make hitching and towing more intuitive.
Which Sierra 1500 trims are best for off-road towing with gear?

Questions or ready to book? Call our Service team at 208-286-1079.
We service all makes, but we specialize in Chevrolet and GMC. That means your truck or SUV receives GM-recommended oil and a filter that meets OEM standards, installed by technicians who know your vehicle down to the bolt. We use GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco filters, follow factory torque specs, and complete a Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection to help you plan what is due now and what can wait. You get dealership-level precision, transparent recommendations, and a service experience built around your schedule.
Every oil change does more than refresh your engine’s lifeblood. It protects variable valve timing components, reduces heat and friction under heavy loads, and supports efficient fuel economy on your daily Pullman-to-Lewiston commute. Whether you drive a Silverado 1500, a Colorado, a Tahoe, or a Sierra 2500 that tows on weekends, we help you choose the right oil weight and change interval for your driving style, terrain, and climate.
- Oil matched to your vehicle: Full synthetic, synthetic blend, or diesel-specific formulations that meet GM approvals for your engine.
- ACDelco or GM Genuine oil filter: Filtration engineered for optimal flow and particle capture to protect sensitive engine components.
- Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection: A thorough look at tires, brakes, fluids, battery, and more to keep you ahead of maintenance.
- Fluid top-offs: Windshield washer, coolant, and other critical fluids checked and topped to spec as needed.
- Maintenance indicators reset: We recalibrate your Oil Life Monitoring system so your next reminder is accurate.
- Service transparency: Clear, no-pressure explanations of any findings — you decide what gets done today.
Not sure when you are due? Many newer Chevrolet and GMC vehicles use an Oil Life Monitoring system that adjusts intervals based on driving conditions. In our region, frequent short trips, cold starts, dust, hills, and towing can shorten intervals. Full synthetic oil often supports longer intervals than conventional oil, but the smartest plan is to follow your vehicle’s monitor or your owner’s manual — and use our inspection results to fine-tune timing between seasons.
- Check your dashboard: If your Oil Life Monitor is at or below 15 percent, schedule service soon.
- Review your manual: Confirm GM specifications for oil type and viscosity for your exact engine.
- Consider your usage: Towing, frequent idling, or short trips may require more frequent changes.
- Ask our team: We will help align interval and oil type with your driving pattern and warranty needs.
Our commitment to honesty and integrity guides every recommendation. We will never oversell service — our non-commission product specialists and Certified Service technicians focus on your satisfaction, not add-ons. Expect upfront pricing, clear timelines, and thoughtful guidance on what is due now versus what can be scheduled later. That is how we earn trust from families and students in Pullman, WA and neighbors throughout Northern Idaho and the Palouse.
Scheduling is simple. Use our online scheduler any time, or call 208-286-1079 to find a time that fits your day. Many oil changes are completed quickly, and we can coordinate additional services such as tire rotation or a battery test during the same visit when appropriate. If you have preferences for oil brand or viscosity, tell us — we are happy to match GM specifications with your needs.
Your vehicle deserves OEM-level care — and you deserve a service team that treats you with respect. Visit Lewiston Chevrolet GMC at 2301 3rd Ave N, Lewiston, ID 83501 for your next oil change. From wipers to wheels, our Certified Service experts know your Chevrolet or GMC and keep it performing the way the factory intended. Ready to go? Schedule your oil change today and drive with confidence between Lewiston and Pullman all year long.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How often should I change the oil on my Chevrolet or GMC?
Follow your vehicle’s Oil Life Monitoring system or the maintenance schedule in your owner’s manual. Many models on full synthetic oil fall between approximately 7,500 and 10,000 miles, but towing, short trips, cold weather, and dusty roads can shorten intervals.

Lewiston Chevrolet – Expert Oil Change Service at Lewiston Chevrolet GMC in Lewiston, ID
Keeping your Chevrolet or GMC running at its best starts with routine oil service performed by professionals who know your vehicle inside and out. At Lewiston Chevrolet GMC, our Certified Service technicians use GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco oil filters, follow factory specifications, and back every visit with our values of honesty and integrity. Whether you drive a Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500, Equinox, Traverse, Yukon, or a hard?working Duramax diesel, our team is ready to help you protect your engine and your investment right here in Lewiston, ID.
Engine oil does more than lubricate. It cools critical components, reduces friction, captures contaminants, and safeguards turbochargers and variable valve timing systems common in modern Chevrolet and GMC engines. Driving in the Snake River Valley, towing up the grades toward the Palouse, or making short trips around Lewiston and Clarkston can all qualify as severe service. That is why our team reviews your driving patterns, checks your Oil Life Monitoring System, and recommends the right oil and interval for how and where you drive.
- Oil life monitor warning: Your dashboard indicator signals it is time based on real driving data.
- Engine noise at startup: Thicker or degraded oil can delay proper lubrication.
- Exhaust or burning oil smell: Possible oil breakdown or leaks that need prompt attention.
- Dark, gritty oil on the dipstick: Contaminants have built up and filtration is saturated.
When you choose our service lane at 2301 3rd Ave N, Lewiston, ID 83501, you get more than a drain and fill. We match your vehicle to the correct Dexos?approved oil, perform a Multi?Point Vehicle Inspection, and document our findings so you leave confident and informed. We also recycle used oil and filters responsibly to help protect our region’s waterways.
- Confirm your vehicle’s requirements by VIN and owner’s manual.
- Drain oil, replace the ACDelco oil filter, and torque to spec.
- Fill with the correct Dexos?approved oil type and viscosity.
- Inspect belts, hoses, fluids, battery, tires, and brakes.
- Reset the Oil Life Monitoring System and update service records.
Selecting the right oil matters. Many late?model Chevrolet and GMC gasoline engines require Dexos1 Gen 3 full synthetic for oxidation resistance, deposit control, and cold?start protection. Duramax diesel applications typically use diesel?rated oil that meets DexosD or applicable specifications. If you tow, idle frequently, drive dusty roads, or take short trips, we will tailor a maintenance plan that aligns with severe?service guidelines to help maximize longevity and maintain warranty compliance.
- Certified Service expertise: Our technicians are trained specifically for Chevrolet and GMC powertrains.
- GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco: Components engineered for fit, filtration efficiency, and durability.
- Comprehensive inspections: Multi?Point checks help catch small issues before they become big repairs.
- Transparent approach: We explain findings, show you what we saw, and get approval before any work.
- Local convenience: Easy scheduling, clear communication, and service for drivers from Clarkston, Moscow, Pullman, and Grangeville.
Ready to plan your visit? Schedule Service online, call our Service team at 208-286-1079, or stop by our Lewiston location. If you have parts questions, reach our Parts department at 208-816-4261. Our non?commission approach on the showroom side reflects our broader culture of putting your satisfaction first, and our service team carries that same commitment into every oil change.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How often should I change my oil on a modern Chevy or GMC?
Follow your vehicle’s Oil Life Monitoring System and owner’s manual. Many models on full synthetic oil fall in the 7,500 to 10,000?mile range, while severe use may require shorter intervals. We will help you set the right schedule.
What oil does my Silverado 1500 or Sierra 1500 require?
Most late?model gasoline trucks specify Dexos1 Gen 3 full synthetic in the recommended viscosity. Engine options vary, so we verify by VIN and confirm the exact spec before service.
Do you service diesel trucks like the Duramax?
Yes. We use the correct diesel?rated oil and filter for your Duramax application and can coordinate related maintenance, such as fuel filters, upon request.
Will an oil change include a Multi?Point Vehicle Inspection?
Our Certified Service technicians complete a comprehensive Multi?Point check that reviews tires, wipers, fluid levels, brakes, battery, and more to help keep your vehicle running exceptionally.
How long does an oil change typically take?
Many oil changes with inspection are completed in about 45 to 60 minutes, depending on your vehicle and current shop volume. We will provide an accurate time estimate when you schedule.

From selecting the correct Dexos?approved oil to resetting your Oil Life Monitoring System, we make oil maintenance straightforward and stress?free for drivers across the Lewiston?Clarkston Valley and beyond.

Is the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500’s TurboMax™ Engine the Right Fit for Daily Driving around Coeur d’Alene, ID?
Lewiston GMC – Is the 2025 GMC Sierra 1500’s TurboMax™ Engine the Right Fit for Daily Driving around Coeur d’Alene, ID?
Choosing the right powertrain is the decision that shapes how your truck feels every single day, and the TurboMax™ engine in the latest Sierra light-duty pickup was designed to make daily driving easy without sacrificing capability.
This deep dive focuses on the real-world upsides of the TurboMax setup for city streets, long highway stretches to the lake, and the occasional weekend tow. We will also touch on how the 10-speed automatic paired to the available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel compares, so you have context if your routine includes frequent, heavy towing.
The TurboMax engine delivers 310 horsepower and 430 lb.-ft. of torque. On paper, that torque number stands out, but the bigger story is how accessible the torque feels in everyday traffic. Rolling away from a light with tools in the bed or merging onto a highway with family and weekend gear, the truck responds with light pedal effort and an even, confident surge. Around town, the 8-speed automatic is tuned for smoothness, making frequent stop-and-go far less tiring.
On longer drives to trailheads or weekend gatherings, cabin tech pulls its weight. The available 13.4″ diagonal multicolor touchscreen and the 12.3″ diagonal Driver Information Center put you in command with crisp graphics and intuitive menus. If your routes include compatible divided highways, available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology can help reduce fatigue, reinforcing the truck’s mission as a confident daily companion. You remain responsible for safe operation, but the system’s prompts and interface are easy to understand.
What about work and play capability? The TurboMax is more than a commuter. When properly equipped, the Sierra can handle substantial towing and hauling, supported by the available ProGrade® Trailering System. This suite provides helpful checklists, lighting tests, and camera views that streamline hitching and make backing more predictable. Pair that with the MultiPro™ Tailgate and the available CarbonPro® composite bed, and the truck makes short work of loading lumber, coolers, or camping gear.
- If your weekdays are mostly errands and commuting, the TurboMax offers smooth torque that makes the truck feel light on its feet
- If your weekends include light to moderate towing, the available trailering tools help you set up quickly and consistently
- If you want a simple ownership experience, the straightforward 8-speed and broad torque band keep things user-friendly
For shoppers drawn to the diesel, the Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel paired with a 10-speed automatic brings a different kind of composure. It is an excellent fit if you tow frequently and favor relaxed, low-RPM cruising over long distances. Both powertrains are well matched to the chassis, brakes, and available trailering tech, so the right choice comes down to your typical load and your driving style.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Will the TurboMax™ engine feel strong enough for mountain drives to fishing spots?
Yes, the TurboMax produces 430 lb.-ft. of torque, which helps the truck climb grades with steady pull. The transmission’s programming supports confident downshifts for passing, and the chassis tuning provides stable control with or without light gear in the bed.
Does the TurboMax work well with the available ProGrade® Trailering System?
It does. The engine’s accessible torque makes low-speed hitching and backing more precise, while the in-vehicle checklists and camera views reduce steps you used to juggle manually. For occasional towing, this pairing is a smart match.
Is Super Cruise® available with this setup?
Super Cruise is available on select trims and configurations. If you drive long stretches on compatible highways, it can help reduce fatigue with hands-free convenience when conditions allow. Your salesperson can confirm availability on the trim you prefer.
Should I choose the diesel instead if I tow more often?
If you regularly pull heavier trailers and cover long highway miles, the Duramax 3.0L Turbo-Diesel’s easygoing, low-RPM character is compelling. If towing is occasional and your routine is mostly city and suburban miles, the TurboMax’s effortless torque and smooth 8-speed are excellent for daily life.
When you are ready to evaluate both powertrains back to back, a structured test drive is the best way to decide. Plan a route with a mix of city traffic and highway, bring along your usual gear, and ask to explore the trailering tools. A good dealership will tailor the drive to your needs so you can feel the differences where it counts. Lewiston Chevrolet GMC is serving Moscow, Walla Walla, and Coeur d’Alene with a straightforward process and knowledgeable guidance to help you choose confidently.

Lewiston Chevrolet – Why Colfax, WA Haulers Trust the 2025 Silverado 3500 HD’s Diesel Power and Camera Tech
When your livelihood depends on how capably a truck tows, it pays to look past flashy numbers and focus on what helps you hitch faster, drive steadier, and unload with confidence. That is exactly where the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD earns trust around Colfax, WA. Properly equipped, the available Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 pairs with an Allison® 10-speed automatic to deliver 470 horsepower and 975 lb.-ft. of torque, backed by a max available trailering rating up to 36,000 lbs. on dually configurations. Just as important, up to 14 available camera views—including Hitch View, Bed View, and Transparent Trailer—turn high-stakes tasks into repeatable routines. Transparent Trailer can help you “see through” a compatible trailer, reducing blind spots during lane changes and merges with heavy loads or livestock in tow.
Trailering confidence is about more than power and pictures on a screen. The Silverado HD platform builds in stability for long grades and changing weather. Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert helps watch your flanks, while available Adaptive Cruise Control with Trailering maintains a set following gap considering your trailer. Vertical trailering mirrors improve sightlines, and available HD Surround Vision offers a 360-degree perspective for tight staging areas or fairground parking. For life between ranch chores and weekend trips, the available 13.4-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen and available 12.3-inch diagonal Driver Information Center put towing data and navigation just a glance away—plus available Google built-in compatibility keeps your maps and voice control ready without juggling devices. At Lewiston Chevrolet GMC, serving Clarkston, Colfax, and Orofino, our team helps match SRW or DRW, bed length, and trailering equipment to the work you do, so your truck feels like part of the crew from day one.
- Diesel muscle where it matters: The available Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8’s 975 lb.-ft. of torque helps launch heavy loads cleanly and hold speed on grades.
- Smart shifting under load: Allison® 10-speed gearing manages torque distribution smoothly across hills, headwinds, and stop-and-go stretches.
- Camera clarity for complex moves: Up to 14 available views—Hitch View, Bed View, and Transparent Trailer—simplify alignment, backing, and merges.
- Trailer-aware safety tech: Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert and available Adaptive Cruise Control with Trailering support awareness in traffic.
- Bed built for real work: Durabed construction, 12 standard tie-downs, and available LED lighting help secure and manage cargo efficiently.
Frequently Asked Questions:
How does Transparent Trailer help with long trailers on rural highways?
Transparent Trailer uses a combination of cameras to create a “see-through” view of a compatible trailer, helping you check traffic before committing to a pass or lane change on two-lane stretches common around farm roads and county routes.
Is the diesel the only way to tow heavy loads confidently?
No. The 6.6L Gas V8 with 401 horsepower and 464 lb.-ft. of torque is a strong, reliable choice with up to 19,080 lbs. max available trailering. If your work routinely pushes past that or includes steep grades with large loads, the available Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 provides the highest max available ratings and broader torque for easier climbs.
Can I get the trailering cameras even if I do not buy the highest trim?
Yes. Silverado HD offers up to 14 available camera views across the lineup. Our team can help you choose a configuration and package that adds the views you need—Hitch View for alignment, Bed View for fifth-wheel and gooseneck hookups, and more—without overbuying features you will not use.
What setups work best for farm and ranch trailers?
Many owners prefer DRW for maximum stability with gooseneck or fifth-wheel loads, especially on uneven terrain or windy days. Crew Cab Long Bed configurations often fit ranch life best, offering in-bed hitching space and cabin room for crews or family. We can help you tailor mirrors, in-bed outlets, and camera routing to your specific trailers.
Whether you are hauling implements, livestock, or hay, the 2025 Silverado 3500 HD’s combination of diesel strength, Allison® control, and camera technology helps you stay in command from hitch to highway. If you are evaluating your next workhorse, our consultants can walk you through exact ratings for your use case and arrange a test drive with your trailer to feel the difference in real time.

Lewiston Chevrolet – Towing Tech That Works for Colfax, WA Drivers – How the 2026 Silverado’s Cameras and Trailering Tools Make Hauling Easier
If you haul regularly—equipment, a camper, or a boat—smart trailering tech is not a luxury, it is an everyday advantage. The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 builds confidence into every mile, pairing robust powertrains with towing technology that helps you set up faster, drive with better awareness, and back into tight spaces without guesswork. From up to 14 available camera views to the In-Vehicle Trailering App, Silverado provides intuitive tools that support safer, smoother towing for busy lives around Colfax, WA and beyond.
What stands out first is visibility. With available HD Surround Vision and up to 14 camera views, the Silverado gives you perspectives you simply cannot get with mirrors alone—think transparent trailer view, hitch view, bed view, and more. Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert takes awareness further by extending blind zone alerts to the length of your compatible trailer. It is like adding a second pair of eyes around your whole rig, useful for lane changes on two-lane highways or merging into weekend traffic near farm roads and downtown corridors.
The In-Vehicle Trailering App is equally practical. Create custom trailer profiles for a horse trailer, enclosed cargo, or your fishing boat, then pull up pre-departure checklists so you never miss a step. The app can track mileage and maintenance for each trailer, a huge time saver when you rotate different loads across the season. Integrated hitch guidance with steering inputs helps you line up faster, which is especially welcome when you are solo on a tight schedule.
Power under the hood matters too. The available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel brings 495 lb.-ft. of torque and an available towing capability up to 13,300 lbs, making it a great match for heavier loads. Prefer gas? The 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 offers 420 horsepower and 460 lb.-ft. of torque for confident hill climbs and decisive passing, while the TurboMax™ engine delivers best-in-class standard 430 lb.-ft. of torque for responsive everyday towing. Pair your preferred engine with Autotrac® 4×4, an automatic locking rear differential, and, on ZR2, Multimatic DSSV™ dampers and front and rear E-lockers for route flexibility when the pavement ends.
Beyond hardware, the Silverado’s cabin makes long tow days easier. An available 13.4-inch diagonal touch-screen and a 12.3-inch diagonal Driver Information Center organize your cameras, navigation, and trailer data. Available Google built-in lets you use Google Assistant for hands-free calls and cabin temperature adjustments, while Google Maps can help identify routes that avoid low-clearance bridges or tricky turns. The available 15-inch Head-Up Display projects speed and guidance onto the windshield, so you keep your eyes forward while monitoring key details.
To make hitching and backing more predictable, consider these best practices that pair naturally with Silverado’s features:
- Pre-departure checklist: Use the Trailering App to confirm coupler latch, safety chains, breakaway cable, and lighting.
- Camera setup: Configure hitch, rear, and side cameras before moving, then toggle to transparent trailer view once on the road.
- Weight distribution: Position heavy cargo ahead of the trailer axle and confirm tongue weight is within recommended range.
- Brake gain: Adjust the integrated trailer brake controller for a smooth, balanced stop without trailer push.
- Mirror and alert settings: Set Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert sensitivity and ensure mirror extensions are properly positioned.

Is Super Cruise® available on the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for Coeur d’Alene, ID drivers?
Lewiston Chevrolet – Is Super Cruise® available on the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for Coeur d’Alene, ID drivers?
Hands-free driver assistance has moved from futuristic concept to everyday reality, and few systems are as compelling as Super Cruise® on the 2025 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. If you drive mountain passes, long interstate stretches, or tow on weekends around Coeur d’Alene, ID, understanding how Super Cruise® fits into your life can help you build the smartest truck for the miles ahead.
On the 2025 Silverado 1500, Super Cruise® connected by OnStar® is available on High Country, and it is the most advanced hands-free driving system in its class. Unlike many driver assist features, Super Cruise® works on compatible roads and even supports trailering, managing steering and speed while maintaining your set gap to traffic. That combination makes a real difference when your rig is loaded and you are covering hours of highway to your campsite, jobsite, or family getaway.
- Availability: Super Cruise® is available on High Country and supports hands-free driving on compatible roads, including while towing.
- How it works: When the indicator turns green on the steering wheel and Driver Information Center, you can go hands-free while the system manages lane position and following distance.
- What it adds: Less fatigue on long drives, smoother speed adjustments, and consistent lane control — especially valuable with a trailer in tow.
Beyond Super Cruise®, Silverado’s confidence-boosting tech suite continues to stand out. Up to 14 available camera views help with hitching, lane changes, and backing into tight sites; the Trailering App supports custom trailer profiles, pre-departure checklists, and tire pressure/temperature monitoring. Inside, the available 13.4-inch diagonal color touch-screen and 12.3-inch diagonal reconfigurable Driver Information Center provide crisp graphics and intuitive control. And with standard Chevy Safety Assist — including Automatic Emergency Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and more — the Silverado’s safety foundation is robust from the start.
Deciding if Super Cruise® belongs on your build comes down to how much time you spend on compatible highways and how often you tow. If you regularly drive longer routes or value minimizing fatigue during multi-hour trips, the system’s smooth, predictable operation is a standout. Combine it with the Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel for relaxed long-haul torque or choose TurboMax™ for strong low-end punch in mixed driving — either way, the Silverado 1500 can be configured to match your travel style.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Does Super Cruise® work with a trailer?
Yes, on the 2025 Silverado 1500, Super Cruise® supports hands-free driving on compatible roads while towing. You will still be responsible for monitoring conditions and taking control when needed, but the system can manage speed and steering to maintain lane position and following distance even with a trailer attached.
Which trim offers Super Cruise® on Silverado 1500?
Super Cruise® is available on High Country. If this capability is important for your driving routine, start your build with High Country and add the appropriate package. Your sales specialist can confirm the latest package content and feature availability.
How do the cameras help with towing?
With up to 14 available camera views, you can see a close-up of the hitch while backing, monitor the trailer’s position while changing lanes, and check surroundings during tight maneuvers. These views appear on the 13.4-inch diagonal color touch-screen and are designed to reduce stress during every stage of your towing journey.
If you would like hands-on guidance, schedule a test drive to explore how Super Cruise®, camera views, and the Trailering App fit your needs.

Lewiston Chevrolet – Does the 2026 Chevrolet Trax Offer All-Wheel Drive for Moscow, ID Drivers?
Shoppers weighing compact SUV choices often wonder how drivetrain impacts everyday confidence. If you are comparing options for city streets, campus access roads, and weekend escapes, understanding what the Trax offers—and why—helps you make a smarter decision. Below, we explain how the 2026 Trax approaches traction, safety, and control so you feel prepared for year-round driving.
The 2026 Chevrolet Trax is engineered with front-wheel drive, pairing an efficient, responsive ECOTEC® 1.2L Turbo engine with a chassis tuned for stability and predictability. This setup keeps weight over the driven wheels, which helps traction during takeoff and in light snow when paired with quality tires. More important, the Trax makes advanced safety and awareness standard. Chevy Safety Assist includes Forward Collision Alert, Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, Following Distance Indicator, and IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist—features that support attentive driving and help you navigate challenging visibility, crowded parking lots, and longer night drives.
Inside the cabin, technology further contributes to composure. Standard wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ help you keep hands on the wheel and eyes on the road, while available wireless charging reduces cable clutter. On select trims, an 11-inch center HD touch-screen and an 8-inch diagonal color Driver Information Center provide crisp, glanceable information, making it easier to manage navigation cues and audio without distraction. An available built-in Wi-Fi® hotspot can keep everyone connected for maps, weather checks, and updates during changing conditions.
If you are considering all-wheel drive solely for winter driving, it is worth taking a holistic view of how the Trax is designed to help. Tire choice matters immensely; a dedicated set of winter tires can transform cold-weather grip. The Trax’s predictable chassis and responsive controls give you a stable platform for daily driving, while standard driver assistance features help with awareness and decision-making. For many drivers, that combination provides the assurance they need without adding the complexity of an additional drivetrain.
To decide whether the Trax meets your specific needs, use a simple framework before test-driving:
- Assess your routes and elevations throughout the year
- Consider tire upgrades for seasonal performance when appropriate
- Rank features like driver assistance and infotainment that support focus
- Bring a typical cargo item to test space and weight distribution
During your drive, try city streets, an uphill merge, and a stretch of highway. Pay attention to initial traction from a stop, steering feedback through gentle curves, and the calm, composed feel provided by Active Noise Cancellation and the Trax’s well-tuned suspension. Confirm that wireless Apple CarPlay® or Android Auto™ pairs seamlessly and evaluate how IntelliBeam® High Beam Assist aids nighttime visibility if your route extends past sunset.
Ultimately, the 2026 Trax brings a balanced formula to compact SUV driving: efficient power, standard safety tech, flexible space, and a clean, modern interface. If you value a straightforward ownership experience supported by thoughtful technology and a stable, predictable driving character, it belongs on your shortlist. For a personalized drive plan and a walkaround of trims like LS, 1RS, LT, 2RS, and ACTIV, contact Lewiston Chevrolet GMC—serving Moscow, Walla Walla, and Coeur d’Alene—and we will tailor the experience to your daily routine.

Lewiston Chevrolet – Does the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox offer AWD for Coeur d’Alene, ID drivers?
Shoppers in the Inland Northwest value confident traction as much as comfort, and the 2026 Chevrolet Equinox answers with available all-wheel drive designed for changing seasons, steep grades, and weekend detours. If you are wondering how the system works and whether it fits your routine, here is a focused look at the benefits, features, and practical considerations that matter most in and around Coeur d’Alene, ID.
Every 2026 Equinox is powered by a 1.5L Turbo engine with 175 hp that balances efficient cruising with easy everyday acceleration. Available all-wheel drive adds traction on demand, sending power to the wheels that can use it when surfaces get slick. The standard Drive Mode Selector helps you tailor response to conditions, so you can dial in the feel you want on a rainy commute, a snowy morning, or a gravel road toward your favorite trailhead. If you want a bit more ruggedness in your look and ride, the ACTIV model adds all-terrain tires and a uniquely tuned suspension that complement the all-wheel drive option for light off-pavement confidence.
Traction is only part of the confidence equation. Chevy Safety Assist is standard across the lineup, bringing Automatic Emergency Braking, Front Pedestrian Braking, Forward Collision Alert, Following Distance Indicator, Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning, and IntelliBeam®. Available driver assistance features such as HD Surround Vision, Rear Cross Traffic Braking, Rear Camera Mirror, and Side Bicyclist Alert can further expand your awareness when weather or low visibility adds complexity to the drive.
Inside, the Equinox keeps your attention where it belongs with an 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen and an 11-inch diagonal Driver Information Center. Google built-in helps with hands-free voice commands, while Wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ compatibility keep your phone’s apps, maps, and playlists front and center without cables. That technology integration pairs well with all-wheel drive for a seamless daily experience that is equally ready for the mountains as it is for downtown errands.
Beyond traction, everyday usability makes the Equinox an easy match for varied lifestyles. You can tow up to 1,500 lbs when properly equipped, perfect for a lightweight trailer or weekend gear. The cargo area includes a folding 60/40 split-bench to accommodate longer items while still carrying passengers, plus hidden storage under the rear cargo floor for valuables. Add the available hands-free AutoSense Power Liftgate, and loading up after a day on the lake is easier than ever.
For those eyeing looks as much as capability, you have choices. RS turns heads with a unique RS-only grille and front fascia, Black emblems and badging, and a flat-bottom steering wheel. ACTIV leans into adventure with its wheel and tire setup, plus available two-tone white roof. LT keeps things streamlined yet well equipped with heated front seats and steering wheel, the large screens, and the useful passthrough center console. All three can be configured to suit your preferences, so you get the traction you need with the vibe you want.
If you plan to test drive, bring along the scenarios you care about most. Steeper routes, mixed pavement, or a familiar stretch of highway will reveal the composure and comfort of the chassis, and you can switch Drive Mode Selector settings to see how the Equinox adapts. If available, request a route with some elevation change or a damp surface to feel the benefit of all-wheel drive. Inside, pair your phone, try Google Assistant voice commands, and see how easy the screens are to use while driving.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Is all-wheel drive available on every 2026 Equinox trim?
Yes, all-wheel drive is available across the lineup. LT, RS, and ACTIV each offer the option, letting you choose your preferred look and feel without sacrificing traction capability.
Does all-wheel drive change the interior or cargo space?
No, you still get versatile space with a folding 60/40 split-bench and up to 63.5 cu. ft. of max cargo volume, plus hidden storage under the rear cargo floor. The layout and usability remain a strong suit regardless of drivetrain.
Which features complement all-wheel drive for winter driving?
Chevy Safety Assist is standard, and available HD Surround Vision can enhance low-speed visibility in tight spaces. The ACTIV model’s all-terrain tires and uniquely tuned suspension add traction and composure for light off-pavement and variable conditions.
What should I focus on during an AWD test drive?
Try the Drive Mode Selector, evaluate highway stability, and, if conditions allow, drive on a damp or uneven surface. Explore visibility aids and make sure the 11.3-inch diagonal infotainment touch-screen feels intuitive with Google built-in voice commands.
When you are ready to compare configurations, our team at Lewiston Chevrolet GMC can help match the right trim, drivetrain, and features to your daily routes and weekend plans. We are proud to be serving Moscow, Walla Walla, and Coeur d’Alene with straightforward guidance and a relaxed, knowledgeable approach.
