Chevy's
Silverado Realtree Bone Collector Concept
To
highlight the 2016 Silverado’s personalization possibilities, the American car
manufacturer teamed up with camo hunting gear company Realtree and Michael
Waddell – the star of Outdoor Channel’s “The Bone Collector” – and came up with
the Realtree Bone Collector Concept.
The
prototype is based on the Silverado 1500 High Country crew cab with 4WD, and
features a plethora of add-ons and mods, designed to make it the ultimate
adventure truck.
The Silverado bears a striking camo-motif, complemented by Realtree Bone
Collector green graphics and the blackened-out body elements, but the coloring
further extends to the tie-down rings and bungee cords in the bed (used to
secure camping gear), and o the six-piston disc brake calipers, part of a
concept upgrade package from Chevrolet Performance that also includes
16.1-inch-diameter (410 mm) disc rotors.
The
humongous brakes also indicate some serious grunt under the hood, more
specifically a 420 hp, 6.2L V-8, which enables up to a 12,000-pound max
trailering capacity. Combine this with larger, aggressive off-road tires,
wrapped around Chevrolet Accessories 22-inch black aluminum wheels, and
Chevrolet Accessories’ new off-road package (which includes front push bar,
assist steps and sport bar, and features an LED off-road light bar to help
illuminate the trail at night).
