2001 Chevy Silverado LT Z71 – Now into its third year of the current design, Chevrolet has worked out the Silverado’s kinks, earning it a reputation as a fast and comfortable truck. With class-leading engine power and clean looks, Chevrolet’s bestseller promises to further improve its image with innovative features that make it a unique truck in the otherwise bland world of half-ton pickups. Holding all this together is a three-section frame that is stiff, light and easy to assemble, giving the big truck a smooth ride and a quiet interior. State-of-the-art steering, suspension and braking systems help make driving the Silverado a joy. Four-wheel disc antilock brakes are standard, and steering feel is tight for a large truck, thanks in part to the power rack-and-pinion gear on models under 6,400 GVWR. When we located this southern, 2 owner Z71 we new it had the looks and options needed to fit perfectly into our inventory. We think a Lt Pewter Metallic, short bed, 4×4 is about as iconic of an American truck as you can find. It looks like the cover truck for just about every early 2000’s Chevrolet literature we remember. We performed a full inspection and wouldn’t hesitate to jump in this beauty and drive her any distance. 

Features and options include; 5.3L Vortec V8, Auto, 4×4, Short Bed, A/C, Airbags, Factory Alarm, ABS Brakes, Leather Bucket Seats, Center Console Storage, Chrome Bumpers/Mirrors/Grille, Cruise Control, Rubber Floormats, Amber Fog Lights, Keyless Entry, Power Windows/Locks/Mirrors, Factory AM/FM/CD Stereo, Tilt Steering, Tinted Glass, Tow Package, Tire Tools, Spare Tire, Factory 16″ Wheels, and Michelin Defender LTX 265/75/R16 Tires! Documentation includes a clean Carfax Report, Owners Manuals, Window Sticker, and Factory Build Sheet. Just like the explosion of the C/K (OBS) generation of GM trucks, we see these NBS trucks seeing a huge appreciation in the near future. With clean lines, iconic looks, and great options, we think this Z71 is a truck you definitely shouldn’t pass up.
