Lou Bachrodt Chevrolet Pompano Beach – Smarter Trailering With 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Technology for Weekends Around Delray Beach, FL
If your weekend plans involve a boat ramp, a campsite, or a double-axle cargo trailer, it pays to pick a truck that turns towing stress into second nature. The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 is purpose-built for that mission, delivering a suite of intuitive, confidence-boosting trailering technologies that make hitching, monitoring, and maneuvering simpler for drivers heading out from the coast or cutting across town. With up to 14 available camera views, an available In-Vehicle Trailering App, and Trailering safety features like Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert, Silverado 1500 helps you see more, prep smarter, and react sooner. Pair that with stout engine options—including the Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel—and you get a calm, steady tow on highways, city streets, and tight marina lots.
Inside the cabin, the available 13.4-inch diagonal touch-screen and 12.3-inch diagonal Driver Information Center keep essential towing information front and center. You can create custom trailer profiles, run pre-departure checklists, and even verify lights with guided prompts. The available Multi-Flex Tailgate adds real-world versatility at the ramp or jobsite by transforming into a step or work surface in seconds, while the roll-formed high-strength steel Durabed provides 12 standard tie-downs rated at 500 lbs each to secure your gear. Add available Super Cruise® hands-free driver assistance technology on compatible roads—now even when towing—and long stretches home after a full day on the water or trails feel less taxing. It is a thoughtful ecosystem of tools working in concert, backed by a full-size platform engineered for stability, braking confidence, and effortless power.
