2024 Silverado Reg Cab 5.3 V8 | Review and 0-60

[@tommyistommy]

It's insane how GM will put the V8 in the short bed regular cab in the middle east and Mexico but not the United States. Ford knows what they are doing with the 5.0 and short gearing in the rcsb. They also give you a big tank in a short bed too.

[@poorman68]

I'm about to buy my first Ford because Chevy wont put a V8 in a regular cab short bed configuration but Ford already does...

[@ThatLow_Slow5.3]

And the fact we don’t get the damn z71 short unless u get a 2014 model

[@The313psn]

THIS ONE

[@Jamesdean-i4i]

I’ve never seen someone sell a vehicle so well. I was impressed with the body roll test lol guy behind you was probably calling 911

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Hahaha 😂

[@WBOS72]

Im seeing more of these, so glad. Sick of these crew cab grocery getters. Will be buying a reg cab long bed soon.

[@redwolfmaddox3986]

We need THE V8 in the shorties!!!!!!!!!!!! Please gm I need it

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Absolutely! A 5.3 and 6.3 RCSB that could be leveled more like an RST or lifted like a TrailBoss please!

[@JKyle-ii1mz]

I'm glad you made this. A regular cab V8 and 8' bed is what I need. I'm glad to see prices start to come down, but it still isn't where it needs to be. This is going to be hard to sell for most people. It seems Ford is killing it with their regular cab offering. As a non Ford guy, how can I not cross shop that one? It seems the better deal. Cheers!

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

I absolutely agree! I wish the Chevy was a lot cheaper or easier to justify compared to a 5.0 reg cab F-150, which is basically a race truck haha.

[@gobzillagaming1277]

I have a fully loaded 2021 single cab wt with out the safety options and it’s one of the greatest trucks out there

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Nice!!

[@beastbee0118]

My dream truck! Its a SHAME that no dealer near me will let me custom order one!!! SMH.. I have the money! But they all tell me they cant custom order me a black v8 regular cab with chrome bumpers! Thats the ONLY way they will have my business, if im spending that much money on a new truck then i WILL order it EXACTLY how i want it.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

I’m sorry to hear that, but I get it!!

[@santinoeli71506]

😪😪

[@tonyfernandez7901]

The entire GM management staff at headquarters should resign in sham or as Trump would say your fired 😮 for incompetence and lack of customer service knowledge regarding making a sale transaction 😊

[@haweater1555]

I got it !! Last month I bought a new 24 4WD SCLB, V8, black, chrome bumpers (uncommon), and aluminum wheels (as shown here). My local dealer had all 4 doors in stock (which don't interest me), so the salesman ran😮 a search and found mine in stock at a dealer in farming country.

[@haweater1555]

Most longbed basic Work Trucks that dealers stock are white for adding commercial lettering, any other colour is rare.

[@PKDesigns2011]

ty for sharing, kool review. Very neat to see one outside U-hual rental and in black ... honestly really wish Chevy would do the tundra drop down window out back in these

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

My pleasure, thanks for watching! Lol, good point, they often are seen as U-haul trucks. I wish every truck offered the roll down window. Even most sliding horizontal windows are pathetically small these days. 🤦‍♂️

[@4.6lexus83]

Like the 5.3 is flex fuel. Also would be nice if the regular bed came with the V8 more eay of a everyday driver.

[@electropentatonic]

Awesome utility truck. I can deal with simple but I wish the work model had the option of LED headlights. Its would be really hard to go backward 10 years in headlight technology. The GMC work model has them as a standard

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

That’s a really good point! It’s almost inexcusable to not have LEDs on modern vehicles. 🤦‍♂️

[@Doc1855]

We Always had an 8’ bed for our trucks around our farm. When I bought our (my) 23 Tacoma TRD Off Road, double cab, it had to be the 6’ bed. I remember when the Ranger had the Tacoma’s had 7’ beds. We’d take the beds off and change the trucks into flat beds. But those days are long gone.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

A 7’ bed sounds like a useful length. My first truck was a 2013 Tacoma regular cab 2.7 i4/5 speed I ordered new. Being the regular cab it was only offered as the same 6’ bed as yours. I miss that truck, it was obviously a very light duty truck but the proportions were great and it could get up to 28mpg. Unfortunately I didn’t order it as a 4wd, hence the mpg, and at that time the 2wd suspension was still lowered than the 4x4, which I never loved. But at the same time it felt silly to lift a 2wd, so I never modded it. 🤷‍♂️😂

[@Doc1855]

@@AutomotiveAnonymous208 The 7’ bed Toyota’s were before your time. The 7’ beds were from the 80s. Yes I’m that old 🤣

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

That’s for sure, lol. About them being before my time, but I’m not calling you old. 😉 I’ve seen a number of them, assuming it’s the ones with those tie downs on the exterior of the bed, or the Back to the Future pickup. That’s what I’m thinking of anyways. 🤪

[@Doc1855]

@@AutomotiveAnonymous208 I remember those tie downs as well. I was born in 65 and learned how to drive on a 1956 Ford Tractor. Vehicles with a manual transmission are less likely to be stolen because a Lot of people don’t know how to drive them. 3 on the tree and 4 on the floor. Everyone in my generation knows exactly what I mean by that

[@phrodendekia]

I love a big engine, single cab and long bed.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

The way it should be! 😉

[@NGMonocrom]

Nice! Let's get to work. Unlike YT's notification system that never told me you uploaded today. Yes, my bell icon is fully on. Regarding the truck, guessing it would be about $500 cheaper with a white paint-job.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Oh weird, well I appreciate you always choosing to watch! I hope to always post a few times a week, at least while I do this part time. Thankfully I have over a month’s worth of footage currently in my membership program, which will all eventually be made public. I just can’t post it all at once to keep a reserve, lol.

[@NGMonocrom]

@@AutomotiveAnonymous208 Understandable. If my camera had more memory, I'd do the same for the content I create for both of my channels. Thankfully this vid. did pop up on my recommendations front page.

[@hi-fi3889]

Chevy regular cab is by far the best looking regular cab. But that peasant interior on the WT and the 4 cylinder make you wonder if the lights are still on at HQ. With the demise of the Camaro, what do they have to excite people? A 100k corvette? Thats a different buyer.

[@1964summit]

my Silverado 2010 wt short bed reg cab actually has a bed looking interior. Sad

[@micjakes1]

Finally, a V8 in a short box, short cab!! Too bad i can't afford it. Woops, just saw it was long bed.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Yeah, for that price I’d want a few more options and a 6.2 lol. Today I made public another regular cab standard bed but with the 2.7 turbo. It’s a quick little truck!

[@stephenrussell9518]

I see more of these than the 6and half foot beds . They need to put the v8 in both instead of just the long bed. Maybe even offer the 3.0 diesel too.they should also make a trail boss regular cab .

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Great suggestion! I personally rarely see the long beds. I also wish GM would put the 6.2 into the regular cabs. I’m not the biggest Ford fan, but while their trucks are running, they run circles around the current GMs. 🤦‍♂️ ☹️

Middle East gets a regular cab ZR2... and U.S. gets a 4 cylinder WT

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Very interesting!

[@haweater1555]

I don't think in this country that regular cab Work Trucks are available in any of the upscale trim levels.

[@johnsullivan7472]

I like the white one u showed! Do u know where I can find one here in western Pa ?

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

I do not, sorry and good luck!!

[@jimfloyd3292]

Same frame as a double cab 6’ bed. Makes it easier to build

[@rj-me3fh]

A real truck! Yes for truck tasks! Nice

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

It’s about time, lol.

[@brucetanner3500]

I love it 😍

[@ThatLow_Slow5.3]

I need a z71 short

[@ChristineDuran-oz8oq]

That's what I look for a dealership that gives you a discount

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Absolutely! I don’t know that this is always 100% accurate but you can also Google the invoice for a specific model and trim level and get an idea of what the dealer pays for it. And then see if they’ll take a couple hundred over invoice if they want your simple/straight forward business (if you know what you want).

[@mikehuot-kk8rf]

vent window?

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

I wish! Many of these modern trucks don’t even have a decent sized sliding rear window.

[@muddfoot69]

Chevy I want a 2 door short bed! Not long bed

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Yeah, I’m shocked that they discontinued that configuration. Ford is the last one to offer it. And very soon I’ll make public a video of an 800hp Stage 1R 5.0 reg cab F-150! 😉

[@lukedawg357SIG]

To get a regular cab Ram you have to get a 2500

[@Offensively-normal]

I haven't seen a unicorn in a long time. I almost forgot they are real.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

I know, right?! I can’t believe how much modern trucks have deviated from their original purpose. 🤪

[@darrenmarshall4006]

If they brought them to Australia, they would sell thousands and I would be one

[@tonyfernandez7901]

Friends I agree 😮 with you 😮 no single cab short bed with a 5.3 V8 😢 the question is why 🤔 I called GM and they have no answer 😢 only they will inform headquarters regarding my complaint along with so many other people 😮 friends the Chevrolet 1500 built in Mexico 🇲🇽 has the 5.3 V8 and is the better quality Truck 😢 friends what has happened to the USA 🇺🇸 ♥ Some Americans in Texas have purchased the single cab short bed with the 5.3 V8 in Mexico 🇲🇽 and brought them into the USA 🇺🇸 ❤ I am looking into this now but I am told the Chevrolet dealerships in Texas are very upset about Americans going to Mexico 🇲🇽 and purchasing a New Chevrolet Truck 😮😮😮

[@haweater1555]

GM builds so many pickups each year that for the most efficiency they can have separate assembly plants for each body style. They are built in Flint, Michigan ; Fort Wayne, Ind., Oshawa, Ontario., and Silao, Mexico. Guess which plant makes the cheapest trim regular cabs.

[@AutomotiveAnonymous208]

Thanks! It’s hard to believe that these days a truck like this is somewhat difficult to find, lol. 😂

[@WEstHamUTD777]

$46k for a Reg Cab, Long Bed Work Truck ? I bought a new Reg Cab, Long Bed Silverado Work Truck in 2006 for less than $18k. GM is pricing themselves out of business, I give it another 10 years and GM is gone, unless they are being bailed out again with tax payer money by the Government .
