LT TRAIL BOSS This boss has a taste for off-road adventure. LT Trail Boss is one serious four-wheeling machine, with a 2-inch lift right from the factory, the Z71 Off-Road Package, Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac MT tires, an Autotrac 2-speed transfer case and an automatic locking rear differential. And prepare to take some comfort along with heated front bucket seats that are standard for 2021, a 10-way power driver seat and a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel.
Joel Stocksdale, with autoblog, wrotewe took an LT Trail Boss, out to Bundy Hill off-road park in Jerome, Mich., where each Trail Boss-specific component came in handy. The park is hilly and heavily wooded. Every path from access roads to hardcore trails are dirt, and on the day I went, it was overcast and wet. The suspension provided great body control over big dips and ruts, keeping us from smacking the ceiling or bottoming out the suspension. The tires were also welcome, providing great traction in the muddy parts. In fact, we never had to use four-wheel-drive low, and only once could we feel the automatic locking differential activate. Of course, had we become stuck from being overambitious, the tow hooks would have been handy for getting hauled out of deep muck.
The sheer variety of configurations and options makes it difficult to recommend a singular Silverado for every buyer. But broadly, the LT trim is a good place to start your research. It comes with a pleasing mix of features for the price. It equips the Custom with the look and capability of an off-road truck by adding, Four-wheel drive, A Two-speed transfer cast, Underbody skid plates, the Z71 off-road suspension package, 18-inch wheels with all-terrain tires, Automatic locking rear differential and Hill descent control.
LT Trail Boss builds on the Custom Trail Boss trim by adding, LED headlights a Power-adjustable driver's seat, Heated front seats, Dual-zone automatic climate control and a Heated leather-wrapped steering wheel
