The third-generation Chevrolet Silverado, built on the K2XX platform, ran from the 2014 to 2018 model years. It introduced a new lineup of EcoTec3 engines, including a 4.3L V6, 5.3L V8, and a potent 6.2L V8, all featuring direct injection and cylinder deactivation. The design was more chiseled and upright, paired with an upgraded interior and a fully-boxed frame that increased rigidity and safety. A 2016 refresh brought updated front-end styling and an 8-speed automatic transmission for some V8 models.
While still primarily valued as used work trucks, certain K2XX Silverados are gaining enthusiast interest. The most desirable versions are low-mileage, top-trim High Country models equipped with the 420-hp 6.2L L86 V8. Special editions like the 2018 Centennial Edition also stand out. For many buyers, this generation hits a sweet spot, offering modern performance and amenities without the more complex systems found on newer trucks.
Buying Tips
- Check for transmission shudder on both the 6-speed and 8-speed automatic gearboxes, as torque converter issues are a known problem.
- Test the air conditioning system thoroughly. A/C condenser leaks are a very common failure point on these trucks, requiring a costly replacement.
- The direct-injected EcoTec3 engines can suffer from carbon buildup on intake valves, leading to rough idling and reduced performance, especially on higher-mileage examples.
- Inspect the infotainment screen for delamination or unresponsiveness. Replacing a faulty MyLink head unit can be expensive.
- Look for rust on the frame and cab corners, especially on trucks from snowy climates. Pay close attention to the rear wheel wells and rocker panels.
