The 2011 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 ranks 2 out of 7 Full Size Pickup Trucks. This ranking is based on our analysis of 66 published reviews and test drives of the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.

While the Silverado hangs on as a class leader, the Ford and Dodge trucks offer some features the Chevy just doesn't have. The F-150 offers features like Ford's SYNC infotainment system and its Work Solutions system, which reviewers think could be a big help if you plan on using the Silverado for business. The Dodge not only offers available in-cabin storage cubbies, but also storage bins built into the truck bed. The Ram also has a coil-over suspension that some reviewers say provides the smoothest ride in the class. Making the buying decision even tougher is the fact that all three trucks have starting prices within about $1,000 of each other.

If you're shopping for a full-size pickup truck, you should also consider the Silverado's platform-mate, the GMC Sierra, which offers similar capability and pricing as the Silverado, but slightly different styling. Take a look at the Dodge Ram and Ford F-150 for all the latest technology in the truck class -- but after checking them out, you might find the Silverado's classic truck capability outweighs the newest contraptions.

Most reviewers agree that the 2011 Chevy Silverado is comfortable enough to serve as a daily driver, but capable enough to be a true work vehicle. "The V8 is as smooth as we've come to expect from General Motors; if there's one thing the Detroit automaker knows how to do, it's create a smooth and powerful V8. GM's new Hydramatic six-speed slurps its way through the gears and always seems to be in the right place, especially when in tow/haul mode,

While the 2011 Chevy Silverado wins points for its angular, upscale styling, it loses points for its bed. While the bed hits all the basics, the competition offers better bed access, as well as in-bed storage and cargo management systems.
