Just because you drive a pickup truck doesn’t mean you don’t appreciate the finer things in life. The folks over at Chevy know this, and that’s why they’re offering a “High Country” version of their all-new 2014 Silverado. What does High Country mean, exactly? For starters, the shiny beast stands out from the pack with a unique chrome grille, halogen projector headlamps, and body-color front and rear bumpers. Twenty-inch chrome wheels are standard, as are chrome body side moldings, door handles, and mirrors. Inside, your ass will rejoice (and who doesn’t appreciate a happy ass?), as the High Country features an exclusive saddle brown interior with heated and cooled perforated premium leather seats. Its standard engine is the 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V-8, which has 355 horses and gets up to 23 mpg highway (which isn’t so bad for a massive engine like this). It’s tough! It’s powerful! It’s luxurious! Or, as Chevy’s Maria Rohrer puts it, “The High Country has a higher level of premium features and materials, but at the same time, it’s 100-percent Chevy truck.” Check out these just-released pictures, and get ready to meet the classiest pickup on the block when the High Country arrives at dealerships later this year.
