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.
The market reflects the Silverado's dual role as a utility vehicle and a potential future collectible. The vast price spread is driven by condition, mileage, and configuration. High-mileage 2WD V6 work trucks occupy the low end of the market, while pristine, crew cab 4x4s with the 6.2L V8 command the highest prices. The average sale price of around $19,706 shows that most are still trading based on their value as daily drivers.
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.
Prices range from around $2,100 for high-mileage work trucks to over $57,000 for well-equipped, late-model examples.
