Michigan Chevrolet Dealers Hear Results as Chevrolet Silverado Takes on Competition, Winning Six out of Six Categories
Michigan Chevrolet Dealers Hear Results as Chevrolet Silverado Takes on Competition, Winning Six out of Six Categories
The Chevrolet Silverado was put to the test against Ford and Dodge competitors to see real-world performance instead of just numbers on paper. Michigan Chevrolet dealers should be proud to know the Silverado beat the competition in all six categories.
DETROIT, M.I. – Michigan Chevrolet dealers may be proud to know the 2011 Chevrolet Silverado HD was pit against its two main competitors from Ford and Dodge. The competitors were diesel-powered 2011 Ford Super Duties and 2011 Dodge Ram HDs. The goal was to put these trucks together in real life situations to compare them instead of just looking at the specifications on paper.
According to Rick Spina in a General Motors press release, Global Vehicle Line Executive for General Motors, "to do so, we engaged an independent company to test the Silverado HD with the Duramax diesel and Allison transmission head-to-head with the competition, and record those tests for everyone to see."
To track the competition, a series of videos was created and called HD to HD. Each test was conducted by AMCI Testing, an independent test firm that tests global automobile specifications. AMCI Testing requires that each vehicle make a pass 12 times or be tested 12 times to certify the test and the truck as the winner. For this reason, Michigan Chevrolet dealers can be certain that whatever the results, they are certifiable and unbiased.
The Tests and the Winners
Acceleration
Test One: All three, three-quarter ton trucks were loaded with 1500-pound payloads and accelerated from zero to 60 mph on level ground at sea level.
Results: The Silverado 2500HD outpaced the Ford F-250 Super Duty, 7.66 seconds to 8.36 seconds, and beat the Ram HD by nearly two seconds.
Test Two: Three one-ton trucks were loaded with a 3,000-pound payload and accelerated from zero to 60 mph up a seven-percent grade at a 6,000-foot altitude.
Results: The Silverado 3500HD outpaced the Ford by nearly three seconds and the Dodge by nearly six seconds.
Bumper Sag
Test: A Silverado 2500HD and F-250 Super Duty were each loaded with 2,400 pounds in the bed, and then a trailer with a 400-pound tongue weight was added to the hitch.
Results: The rear bumper of the F-250 dropped a total of 6.3 inches under the load. The Silverado dropped 3.9 inches.
Twist Ditch Simulation
Test One: The Silverado 3500HD and Ford F-350 trucks were loaded with 3,000 pounds of payload and driven over a set of ramps designed to simulate a worksite situation like an irrigation ditch.
Results: The Silverado did not have any problems. The F-350 twisted to the point where the tailgate jammed shut, then buckled.
Test Two: Both three-quarter-ton trucks had pointers added to measure misalignment between the cab and bed as trucks went back up the set of ramps once more.
Results: Misalignment for the Silverado 2500HD: 0.25 inch; for the F-250 Super Duty: 1.1 inch.
Passing Performance
Test One: Towing a trailer loaded with 9,750 pounds of brick pavers and the accelerating from 30 to 55 mph at sea level on a test track.
Results: Silverado 2500HD beats the Ford, 1,020 feet to 1,174 feet, and outperforms the Dodge by more than 1,800 feet.
Test Two: The test was repeated with one-ton trucks and a 16,500-pound trailer at an elevation of more than 6,000 feet. The trucks had to pass a slow-moving semi and complete the pass before they reached a slower moving snow plow in the left lane. If they couldn't complete the pass safely, drivers had to brake and pull back in behind the semi.
Results: Silverado 3500HD was the only truck to complete the pass.
Brake Fade
Test One: The Silverado 3500HD and Ford F-350 Super-Duty were loaded with 3,000 pounds of payload, and did ten back-to-back stops from 70 mph. Brakes were cooled down between runs.
Results: Braking performance was comparable.
Test Two: Same test, but with no cooling period.
Results: The Silverado retained its full braking power, while the brakes on the F-350 faded noticeably. Ford Brake Fade was 75.7 feet.
Exhaust Braking Performance
Exhaust braking systems are useful for maintaining speed on downgrades, saving wear-and tear on the service brakes.
Test: The Silverado 3500HD and a Ford F-350 Super Duty, each towing the 16,500-pound trailer. Trucks started down a 7-percent grade at 50 mph. The exhaust brake was set and speed measured after the trucks had travelled 2,000 feet.
Results: The exhaust brake on the Silverado had slowed the truck and trailer to 44 mph. The Super Duty had actually accelerated to 56 mph.
Michigan Chevrolet dealers already know that the 2011 Silverado HD was already named 2011 Truck of the Year by Motor Trend for its real-world performance, and the available videos were able to define the differences between the 2011 Chevrolet Silverado, 2011 Ford Super Duties and 2011 Dodge Ram HDs.
