Innovation and progress are two of the fundamental qualities that make the automotive industry unique. GM has always been at the forefront of both of these and refuses to rest on its laurels when it comes to research and development.

At Rick Hendrick Buick GMC, you'll have no problem finding used Chevy diesel trucks. The trucks you'll find here are many and adhere to the standards of every driver.

Historian Shelby Foote once remarked that Americans have an incredible talent for compromise. This observation is manifested within the Silverado 1500, which exists as the ideal compromise as far as diesel-powered trucks are concerned. Providing more power than the smaller-sized Colorado and not having the monstrous bulk of the Silverado HD models, the diesel Chevy Silverado 1500 works for almost any driver. Since 2019, the 3.0L Duramax diesel engine has provided the Silverado 1500 with an edge over the competition.
This diesel-powered workhorse provides stellar performance at significantly lower RPMs than its gasoline-powered counterparts. With 277 horsepower at 3750 RPM and 460 lb-ft of torque at 1500 RPM, this is one engine that will go the distance for you in terms of capability and will recoup your investment. When properly maintained, these engines can perform their tasks for countless miles. If you're the trailering type, a towing capacity of up to 13,300 lbs, depending on the model year, means that you'll have the ability to haul the mother lode. When it comes to doing those unpleasant out-of-town jobs, you won't be hurting in terms of fuel costs. Getting up to 31 MPG of the highway, you might say that this engine is everywhere you want to be.
No two drivers are exactly the same, and the same can be said for workloads and the tasks that are found throughout the workweek. Sometimes you need the big guns to accomplish what some might consider impossible. Fortunately, in the world of diesel-powered workhorses, the diesel Chevy Silverado HD models are Clydesdales whose hoofs make the ground tremble beneath them. Putting the "heavy" in heavy-duty, both of these trucks come with the most capable of the Duramax diesel engines. This 6.6L powerhouse generates 445 horsepower and a mind-blowing 910 lb-ft of torque in 2017 and later models. Forget about the "little engine that could"––this is the "big engine that can, will, and won't let you down." A towing capacity of up to 36,000 lbs in the Silverado 3500 HD means that there isn't a job big enough to overshadow this Chevy's abilities. What are you waiting for? It's time you proved to the world what you and a diesel-powered Chevy are capable of accomplishing.
The diesel Chevy Colorado is the most capable midsize diesel truck on the market. While not as large as the Silverado 1500 or Silverado HD, we assure you that the Colorado is no pushover. While its size might be diminutive, its heart is mighty. Generating 181 horsepower at 3400 RPM and 369 lb-ft of torque at a low 2000 RPM, this is a Duramax that proves once and for all that size doesn't matter. Turbocharged and ready to deliver on the promises of the brand name, a towing capacity of 7,700 lbs. is indeed impressive when compared to the competition. Achieving up to 30 MPG on the highway isn't too shabby either. Possessing the famed longevity of its extended diesel family, this is one motor that has certainly gotten better with age.
