"2006 Chevrolet Silverado SS Extended Cab Short Bed Pickup
Ten years after the last Chevy 454 SS pickup truck rolled off the assembly line, the company jumped back into the performance truck world with the AWD, extended cab Silverado SS. As Car and Driver wrote at the time, ""With time comes progress, and Chevy's latest screamer truck is refined where the 454 was crude. It's still plenty quick, mind you, but now it goes about its business like a seasoned veteran rather than a hotshot rookie. Swift. Deliberately. Controlled.""
For consignment, a 2006 Chevrolet Silverado SS extended cab short bed pickup with a title verified 129,799 actual miles, replete with some mild performance upgrades, new components, and a lowered stance that turns this muscle truck into a lean and low wicked ride. Muscle truck lovers unite! Here's one that's roomier than a Syclone, and easier on gas than an SRT10!
Note: This vehicle is sold with a New Jersey Salvage branding on the title

Exterior
2006 would be the last year for the SS and the only change from previous years was the option of a bench seat, but a variety of colors were still available including arguably the most desirable, black. The monochromatic coverage of a single color on the SS gives the vehicle an aggressive and immediately recognizable disposition. The only thing that breaks the black are the SS emblems. Even the door handles are glossy black while the face is enhanced by a honeycomb like grille set and defined air intake ducts which are characteristic design cues on the SS and it's here we note the marker lights are clear rather than ambler. The bed is uncovered and has seen a lot of use, so use it! 22-inch wheels roll with super low profile tires in staggered sizes and Wilwood red brake calipers shine through. The truck has a sunroof and solid rear window and overall, the paint is in ok condition. Imperfections include scratched areas of orange peel. We take note of the tailgate spoiler on the back which is a pretty cool addition!
Interior
Open the front door, then you can open the rear doors which have no external handles. Now you've got barn door style access to the entire interior. Charcoal molded plastic door panels with gray cloth inserts greet you in familiar GM configuration. The back doors include a cup holder and storage bin on the narrower doors and show some minor usage. The front leather bucket seats have bulky cushions, pull down armrests, and electric adjustments with some compression and wear consistent with mileage. The less deep rear bench, with the same pillowy quality, is still big enough for adults as headroom is more than adequate. An Auto LED carbon fiber steering wheel has been added and sits in front of the white faced gauges with blue lit needles in a cluster that is thorough and easy to read. A touchscreen AM/FM/CD unit has been added over the standard AC controls and an SS badge is prominent on the dash lest you forget you're driving a high performance Silverado. A big center console contains a storage bin, open storage, and a cup holder. WeatherTech mats protect the gray carpet and the overhead console has storage, lights, and switches.
Drivetrain
Under the hood, a clean 6.0 liter LQ9 V8 backed by a 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission with a Corvette shift servo, GAP trans cooler, and deep pan. It sends power to the 10 bolt rear with 3.73 gears with Eaton TrueTrac carrier. Wilwood 16"" power disc brakes are found front and rear with newer stainless lines, and stainless headers begin the exhaust process.
Undercarriage
The frame was blasted and painted so it's pretty clean underneath where a number of mods have been made. The front frame shows typical surface rust and the driveshaft is colored by surface rust. A Corsa Cat back system begins after the headers and includes the muffler which sends a tailpipe back, terminating in twin chrome tips behind the right rear wheel. No cats are onboard. Suspension begins with coil springs in front and leaf springs in back, and benefits from additions including DJM upper & lower control arms, BellTech drop spindles, and Bilstein shocks.
Drive-Ability
SS Silverados were lower from the factory than the standard 'Rado, but this one takes it to the next level and feels almost car-like upon entry. Even with some miles, the 6.0 is a smooth running and capable powerplant and this truck stays planted in turns and as we tend to drive like a grandmother on test runs, we can tell there's more potential at speed with this family friendly performance truck. All of the onboard functions operate as they should and we slide this slick SS back to the mall. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
The Silverado SS was produced from 2003 to 2006 and while some were put away and recognized as potential future collectibles, others were readily used as capable work trucks. Here's one you can haul stuff with during the week, then throw the kids in the back seat and hit cruise night and morning events during the weekend. No matter what, you're still rocking a collectible performance truck. Only about 1,000 were produced in 2006 and with a potential 2025 Silverado SS on the horizon, desirability is only going to go in one direction!
