The grill on the blue truck is absolutely hideous imo, but the maroon Z71 wasn't a bad looking truck overall
I haven't a clue if they changed anything other than the front end on these 1500's.

2016 LTZs get the 8 speed hooked up to the 5.3 that was only offered on the 6.2s in 2015. New tail lights, Apple car play and I think that's generally it.

If I was buying my truck over again, it'd be a 5.0 and a Supercrew, but I don't think I'd change anything else. The only reason I'd ditch the 3.7 is because most 5.0 owners get about the same gas mileage as me. I'm not crazy about cylinder deactivation systems because they're a bad idea, all of that extra complexity, the four-banger drone on the highway, and the decrease in drivability, and a tiny little bump in MPG to show for it? No thanks.

The turbo engine would be a blast, but a naturally-aspirated engine will live longer.

My 2014 5.0 just flipped to 23,000 mi. I swear it's running better then ever, which has always been mint. I'm getting a consistent 15/16 mpg's around town. It's been a fast revving engine considering the weight it's moving, but today I booted it and it took off quicker than it ever has.
With the addition of the kicker sub and Infinity doors, the Sony is now a premium stereo.
Add how it's running, and I've fallin in love with my truck all over again, a year and a half later.
Sorry Chevy....you're not gonna steal my loyalty

Anyone see that new painfully biased Silverado commercial where they rip on Ford because the XLT (look at it, its a XLT) doesn't have wifi like their high trim high country truck does? Lol, bunch of ******* retards over there at the Garbage Motors marketing department.
And why do they never pick on Dodge? Chrysler technically doesn't even exist anymore and they're a Dutch-Italian company now. Yet chev commercials and chev fanboys in general never have a bad thing to say about Dodge, ever. Its rip Ford, make fun of Ford, diss Ford, and turn a blind eye to all other competititors. All those classless fools accomplish is making me hate the bowtie even more than I already do.
F*** Chevy and their fans, F*** Garbage Motors.

In another commercial they brag about their high strength steel body and diss Fords aluminum body. But in 2018 they are supposed to have an aluminum body too.
