Jennings Auto Group – How the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 1500’s Super Cruise with Trailering Transforms Long-Haul Drives for Quincy, IL Owners
If you spend weekends towing a camper to the state park or hauling equipment to a client site, few advances feel as meaningful as hands-free driver assistance you can trust. That is where available Super Cruise® with trailering on the latest Silverado steps in for Quincy, IL owners. On compatible roads, Super Cruise can manage speed and steering while you remain attentive, helping take the stress out of long stints behind the wheel—yes, even with a trailer in tow. Pair that with Silverado’s trailering camera tech—up to 14 available views—and you get a more complete picture of what is happening around your rig. From aligning the ball with Hitch View to keeping tabs on blind zones alongside the trailer, the system helps you stay composed and confident during maneuvers that used to be the most tense part of the trip.
Technology is only as good as the foundation beneath it, and Silverado brings the right hardware. The available Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel puts down 495 lb.-ft. of torque through a refined 10-speed automatic for unruffled towing composure, while the standard TurboMax™ engine delivers a best-in-class 430 lb.-ft. of standard torque for punchy response when traffic stacks up. Trailering hardware and software work in lockstep: an available integrated trailer brake controller, Trailer Sway Control, and the in-vehicle Trailering App make setup straightforward and repeatable. Add the available Multi-Flex Tailgate and Durabed’s 12 standard tie-downs to simplify loading, then use Google built-in on the 13.4-inch diagonal display to plan your route, find a wide-turn fuel stop, or locate a campground with pull-through sites. The result is a pickup that reduces friction at every step, from hitch to highway.

For frequent towing, the Duramax® 3.0L Turbo-Diesel offers 495 lb.-ft. of torque and a smooth 10-speed automatic for relaxed pulling and easy throttle modulation. If you prefer gas, the 6.2L EcoTec3 V8 pairs strong torque with confident passing power.
