The point is, tailgating for 2016 is about to commence, and we’re due to welcome the 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 to the EVS Auto Group inventory to celebrate. Additionally, we have a number of 2016 Chevy Silverado 1500 models in stock currently, all of which are ready and willing to make your next trip to Lambeau or to Camp Randall!
2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 Tailgating Features
Easy Connectivity for All Involved
If you’re at a tailgate, what are you going to do? Listen to music? Maybe set up your fantasy lineups, or check the gambling lines and make a few bets? In any case, the updated Chevy MyLink interface makes streaming music a breeze, while the built-in 4G LTE WiFi hotspot lets up to seven smart devices use the internet at once. Meanwhile, with the new myChevrolet app, you can find your car after the game is over and even have it running when you get there.
Terrific Towing Skills
Tailgates can take many different forms. Some pull a massive trailer behind their truck, and will simply watch the game from their parking spot. Others might pull an industrial-sized grill and feed the masses. In any case, you want to be prepared for anything, and with its 12,500-pound towing capacity in its available 6.2L EcoTec3 V8, nearly anything is possible. Meanwhile, with towing features such as Trailer Sway Control and available Rear Vision Camera, you’ll have no trouble maneuvering either.

A Versatile Cargo Box
One of the most famed facets of a pickup is its cargo box, and this is certainly vital when tailgating. The Silverado 1500’s cargo box features a payload capacity of up to 2,250 pounds, and is available in three different bed lengths. It also features four standard tie-downs, as well as an available EZ Lift and Lower tailgate. Factor in its under-rail LED lighting, and it’s clear that the cargo box was designed with tailgating in mind.
Great Cargo Box Accessories
Although the cargo box of the 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 is fantastic from the moment it rolls off the assembly line, it can be outfitted with features to sweeten the deal even further. Buyers can enjoy a spray-on bedliner, bed rug or bed protection mat to protect against potential damage from shifting coolers and grills, and can keep items in place using an available Bed Net or GearOn Pickup Box Carrier Cross Rails. Then, if the weather flares up, you might enjoy a Tonneau Roll-up Cover to protect against the elements.
As you can clearly see, the 2017 Chevy Silverado 1500 pickup is in a class all its own when it comes to tailgating. Visit us today at EVS Auto Group to schedule your test drive!
