Compare the New Chevy Silverado 1500 to these Trucks

A comparison of engines and performance

The Chevy Silverado 1500 offers Simi Valley, CA buyers a wider variety of engines than the Ford F-150 and Ram 1500. Your Silverado 1500 choices include a 3.0-liter Duramax® diesel, a 2.7-liter TurboMax inline-four and V8 options. The Ford F-150 offers a 2.7-liter V6 as the standard option with choices that include a twin-turbo 3.5-liter V6 and a naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8. The 2025 Ram 1500, unfortunately, has discontinued the legendary HEMI® V8 engine and has downgraded its powertrain options to include a V6 and twin-turbo inline-six gasoline powertrains. So the Chevy Silverado 1500 edges out the Ford F-150 in terms of engine options and leaves the Ram 1500 far behind the leaders.

Another Chevy Silverado 1500 win: Hands-free trailering

The 2025 Chevy Silverado and Ford F-150 each offer a version of hands-free driving. The Ram 1500 has yet to introduce that technology, so it leaves the Silverado 1500 to square off against the F-150. When it comes to the Silverado's Super Cruise™ with Trailering, we believe it delivers more than the F-150's BlueCruise system.

With Chevy's Super Cruise, you have an extra hand on the wheel, even when yours can't be. When you need to haul a load, or have your trailer hitched to the back, you want a truck built to help you achieve an easy and dependable driving experience. No other truck in its class can compare.

A comparison of bed sizes

The Chevy Silverado bed is wider and taller than what you'd get with the Ford F-150. While both offer multiple bed lengths, the Silverado's standard bed at 6-feet-7 inches is 71.4 inches wide, and that's much more than the F-150's standard bed, which is only 50.6 inches wide. That means you'll have more room to haul whatever you need around Oxnard, CA. In fact, the Chevy Silverado 1500 has the most cargo volume in the full-size pickup class, beating both the Ford F-150 and the Ram 1500. The Chevy Silverado gives you 89.1 cubic feet while the Ford F-150 has only 77.4 cubic feet, and the Ram 1500 is ever further behind with a max of only 68.5 cubic feet. That's a major difference that can have a significant impact on your productivity.
