Tow With Confidence In The 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500

At Stanley Chevrolet, we know the reason you choose a pickup truck often has to do with your need to tow. In 2020, the Chevy Silverado 1500 got some upgrades to its trailering technology that will make the job just a little easier. If you’re in the market for a new pickup and plan to do some towing, the 2020 Silverado 1500 is well worth the consideration. Visit Stanley Chevrolet for a test-drive of this powerful pickup today.

See Through Your Trailer With Advanced Tech

One of the challenges of towing a trailer is the difficulty of seeing behind it. Your rear-view mirror becomes virtually useless because all you see is the trailer. And this leaves you with significant blind spots. But with the available transparent trailer feature in the 2020 Silverado 1500, you can get a full view of what’s behind you. Using the combination of a tailgate-mounted camera and an accessory camera mounted on the trailer, navigating parking lots or merging into traffic around Indianapolis becomes effortless, because your trailer is nearly invisible.

While seeing behind your trailer is critical, this is just one potential blind spot when you’re towing. That’s why the 2020 Silverado 1500 has 15 different camera views. With four hitch views, six driving views and five parking views, you can hitch up, drive and park with confidence.

Access Key Details With The In-Vehicle Trailering App

In the 2020 Silverado 1500, Chevrolet added an in-vehicle trailering app that takes trailering technology to the next level. This app helps drivers with everything from pre-departure checklists to diagnostics for tire pressure and lighting. So, before you even hit the road with a trailer in tow, you can be confident that everything’s working as it should. This trailering app even sends maintenance reminders for your trailers, so you can keep up with these important tasks. And if you have more than one trailer, it allows you to create named profiles for each of them, so you can individually track maintenance needs, towing history and more right from your truck’s screen.

Control Your Trailer With The IN-Command® Control System

Another available feature in the 2020 Silverado 1500 is the iN-Command® Control System. This system, which comes from ASA Electronics® and uses the myChevrolet mobile app, connects with the in-vehicle infotainment system and gives you control over your trailer. You can even turn on the water heater before you pull into the campground, so a hot shower is waiting for you when you arrive. Features like this are controlled through the truck’s center screen using this industry-leading technology that’s only available in the Silverado 1500.

The 2020 Chevy Silverado 1500 has impressive trailering tech. If you’re looking for a pickup that you can confidently tow with, and love innovative technology, then this truck may be a good fit. The only way to find out is to visit Stanley Chevrolet for a test-drive.
