2007 Chevrolet Silverado LTZ
January 9th, 2007
To remain the leader one must keep adapting to a changing environment. Nearing eight years since its last overhaul, the Silverado looks ready for replacement. Both foreign and domestic competition have posed a formidable challenge, creeping upon the giant from nearly every side.
At the same time, the market has become more segmented. General consumers demand better performance, fuel-efficiency, quality and safety. In addressing these issues, GM has designed its new full-size truck platform with the stability and versatility required to serve its broad market area.

The 2007 Silverado 1500 is Chevrolet’s brand new half-ton pickup, that is available in Regular Cab, Extended Cab, and Crew Cab versions with a choice of three different box sizes: 5 feet 8 inches, 6 feet 6 inches and 8 feet. The next-generation redesign for 2007 is built on a new platform for a smoother ride and more responsive handling, and offers six Gen IV small-block V8 engines.
2006 Chevrolet Niva
December 22nd, 2006
The 2006 Chevy Niva is built in a joint-venture with Russia’s number-two automaker, AvtoVAZ, and is based on the Soviet-era LADA Niva that’s been the Eastern bloc’s personal 4×4 of choice since its launch in 1977. Both are unibody trucks with control-arm front and live-axle rear suspensions, and each comes with a standard five-speed stick and two-range transfer case. Relative to the U.S. market’s smallest true 4×4, the Suzuki Grand Vitara, the Niva is 16.4 inches shorter, on an 8.3-inch-longer wheelbase-good for smoothing out rough roads.
