Each August, members of the
Trailer Life and MotorHome team
come together in Elkhart, Indiana,
the epicenter of RV manufacturing,
to test new-model-year RVs and tow vehicles.
Since the team evaluates fi rst releases of new
models, a fi nal prototype or one of the fi rst
models off the assembly line often makes
its way to the testing grounds. This year three
of the test units were still on the line when
we arrived, and Chevrolet provided the highly
anticipated, redesigned 2020 Silverado HD
the week before the truck went on sale. These
were all, quite literally, hot out of the oven.

raise or lower your truck’s suspension — giving you t he extra support you need to
get you backon the level. And right now, you can get up to a $150 rebate!*
