The Silverado name was used to denote variations in trim on Chevrolet pickups from 1975 to 1999.
The first generation full size Silverado model was built in 1998 for the ’99 model year Production of the first generation Silverado came to an end in 2007.
Strengthened heavy duty variants of the 1st generation Silverado were produced from 2001 to 2007.
The second generation of Silverado’s was launched in 2007 when the model was awarded both the North American and the Motor Trend Truck of the Year gongs.
Not sure that this Monster decalled example has anything to do with the Turner Motorsports team that runs Ricky Carmichael in the NASCAR Camping World Series…
… or even if it sees any off road action …
or why Monster needed a heavy duty vehicle with a 4000 lb carrying capacity …
when all the vehicle seems to carry is …
a giant ghetto blaster…
and a few cases …
of energy drink.
But one thing is for sure in li’l ole England the Monster Silverado from Flint Michigan is pretty much king of the road.
