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.
