Exactly, the Silverado is just a more popular truck name. The same reason Ford called their crossover a Mustang

@@ayushmalpeddi2793 *_"The Mustang is a sedan._* Don't like it? Take it up with the Sports Car Club of America, which classifies the Mustang in the "American Sedan" class. The Mustang was always a sedan. It has always been a sedan. It always will be a sedan, unless it changes significantly. If the word "sedan" offends you, then choose the term "pony car," which is also fine and respects the Mustang's unique role in history as a sporting sedan variant of a non-sporting sedan, in this case the Ford Falcon."

@@illuminape7632 I recently saw Caranddrivers test and it averaged almost 2 miles/kwh at 75mph which is decent. But I'd still like to see closer to 2.5 miles/kwh and a smaller battery to reduce wasted weight/space. I think the gross battery on this is like 220kwh which is insane. Smaller battery and higher efficiency means companies can produce more EVs and reduce costs for consumers. Also a smaller battery means quicker charging. Rivian is claiming 420 miles for R1T Gen 2 with a 141kwh usable battery. I think it's optimistic but either way it should be noticeably more efficient. Now it's also a smaller truck. Hopefully these full size trucks can achieve low to mid 400 miles with 175Kwh batteries in the future

Rearview camera mirror first came out everyone claimed it was a gimmick. Y’all remember that too? Now their top trim trucks got them lol. They even said the Sierra’s Multi-Pro tailgate was a useless gimmick in 2019, now they offer some form of multi-functioning tailgate on their trucks. Leave it to *gm* to lead America in innovation, both mechanically and in terms of tech. Although this isn’t a new feature as it’s borrowed from the Avalanche, it was very creative & smart to revive this feature in the new Chevy Silverado EV.
