Front Tow Hooks

It looks like the Trail Boss is the only trim with tow hooks. I understand they are trying to maximize aerodynamics, but I think a truck should always have front tow hooks. Even if that means using removable covers.

The work truck does have a small Square cover on the front for a tow eyelet to be screwed in. You can just see it in the bottom right.

I wonder if the provisions for the tow hooks are still on the frame for the WT models? We could buy the Trail Boss hooks and retrofit them to the WT.

To me the Trail Boss is the best looking version.
I don't necessarily need all of the off road stuff but would be interested in making the front of a WT look like a Trail Boss.

Welcome to the forum @gator67! There should be a bunch of aftermarket accessories that will come out to give the WT or other Silverados a more rugged look. Is the WT what you're planning on ordering?

As of right now yes... I'm curious to see the price point that comes out for an LT or Trail Boss model. I'm not crazy about the front end on the WT model. :LOL:

I was looking at getting the trail boss model, but I have a feeling it will be expensive and that it will not have a 400 mile range.

My feeling is that any vehicle designed and marketed as off-road/adventure ready should only come with the largest battery possible ( I’m looking at you, Subaru…:unsure:).

It will have the 200 kWh battery. However, will likely have the beefed up motors and suspension as well as other components that will eat away at range.

The tires will the kill the range. Just look at rivian. The all terrain tire option drops the range by about 15%
