Performance
With respect to horsepower, the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD packs quite a punch and will knock the typical truck down a few rungs. However, bear in mind that high horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Handling
With their comparable turning radii, the typical truck and the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD most definitely handle about the same into and out of tight spots.

Drivetrain
The typical truck's engine is substantially smaller than the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD's. Bear in mind that smaller engines can be stressed more; on the flip side, smaller engines typically get better gas mileage. The typical truck could learn a lesson or two from the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD when it comes to pickup.

Utility
The Silverado 3500HD is likely a better choice than the typical truck as far as transporting cargo, especially if you frequently need to carry a lot of suitcases or massive dogs. The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD will most certainly prove more convenient than the typical truck for those of you with frequent kid-cargo. The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD outpulls the average truck by a big margin.

Comfort
While the front cabin in the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD offers a bit more head room than the average truck, there frankly isn't much of a difference. While the rear of the Silverado 3500HD provides a bit more head- and leg-room than the average truck, there frankly isn't much of a difference.

Dimensions
The Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD is tremendously heavier than the average truck. Your wallet will hurt more every time you fill up the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD than the average truck because of its larger tank. The typical truck and the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD compete for the same parking spaces.

Cost
The destination charge is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle from its point of origin to the dealer. It costs approximately the same to get the typical truck to the dealership as the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD. The Silverado 3500HD is significantly more expensive than the average truck as far as MSRP.

Warranty
Although the basic warranty that comes with the typical truck is slightly longer than the Chevrolet Silverado 3500HD's, the difference isn't too marked.
