Why the Chevrolet Silverado Has the Best Bed of Any Pickup Truck

Whether you’re hauling heavy payloads, gearing up for a weekend of fun, or handling daily errands in Maine’s Midcoast, a purposeful and well-designed truck bed makes all the difference. That’s exactly what you’ll get when you buy a Chevrolet Silverado from Quirk Chevrolet GMC of Rockland. Its bed is far ahead of the competition, and here are just a few of the reasons why.

It’s incredibly durable

The Silverado’s cargo box is known as the Durabed. Made with roll-formed high-strength steel, it’s designed to work hard all day and hold up in Penobscot Bay’s nastiest weather conditions. Plus, you can make it even more durable with options like a drop-in bedliner or a Chevytec spray-on bedliner.

It can hold huge amounts of cargo

Need to load up your truck with landscaping supplies, sports gear, or anything else? The Silverado’s Durabed provides better cargo volume than any of its competitors.¹ Short bed models can fit 62.9 cubic feet of cargo, standard bed models have room for 71.7 cubic feet, and long bed models boast 89.1 cubic feet!

It’s equipped with all kinds of helpful features

Standard features like the CornerStep rear bumper, 12 cargo tie-downs rated at 500 pounds per corner, and cab-mounted cargo area lamps make the Silverado’s Durabed even more useful. You can also upgrade with options like a hard or soft tonneau cover, LED cargo box lights, and utility wall organizers to keep the bed organized.

Its tailgate options are second to none

The Silverado’s bed comes standard with a lockable tailgate — and that’s just the beginning! You can also opt for a power up/down or one with EZ Lift assist and power lock/release. Best of all is the advanced Multi-Flex Tailgate, which you can configure to serve six different functions — a bed step, a work surface, a load stop, and more.
