Top Pick Trucks are big sellers in the United States, and the Silverado is among the most popular pickups in the land. To keep just about every customer happy, Chevy offers a wide range of models and options: regular, extended and crew cabs, short and long load boxes, one V-6 and three V-8s, a heavy-duty series with a diesel option, automatic and manual transmissions and the choice of rear- or four-wheel drive.

You can order whatever you want, from a bare-bones work truck to a plush cruiser more adapted to a night on the town than a day at the construction site. Here are some points to remember: The V-6 powered versions are best bought for light-duty work. Most buyers will be better served by the 4.8- or 5.3-liter V-8. The 6.0-liter V-8 is more powerful, but also less economical. Few need its added horsepower and torque.

Silverados ride like a truck, but they are still very good within this field. Their ride is more compliant than that found in most other pickups. Still, expect an empty Silverado to be busy on rough pavement. Heavy-duty models can be harsh and abrupt over bumps.

If among the best for ride qualities, they trail some competitors for handling precision. Despite this, they offer reasonable ride and handling when compared to other full-size pickup trucks. Quadrasteer, available on some models, improves low-speed maneuverability and stability when towing. A hybrid option also joins the lineup for 2005.

Conclusion: A fine pickup for people who need a full-size truck.
