Bob Boyte Chevrolet – Why the 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD ZR2 Fits Workdays and Weekends around Gulfport, MS
The 2026 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD ZR2 blends the confidence of a heavy-duty platform with factory-engineered off-road hardware, making it uniquely capable for drivers who split time between jobsites, boat ramps, and forest roads around Gulfport, MS. Instead of forcing a choice between trail manners and towing muscle, ZR2 gives you a precisely tuned suspension and chassis while keeping the strength serious towing demands require. The foundation is purpose-built: a 1.5-inch factory suspension lift, Multimatic DSSV™ dampers for exceptional control over sharp impacts and washboard surfaces, and 35-inch Goodyear Wrangler Territory® MT tires for sure-footed traction. Add a rear electronic locking differential, an aluminum front skid plate, and steel underbody protection, and you have a truck that treats rough ground like part of the plan.
Spend time in the cabin and the Silverado 2500 HD ZR2 feels like a command center designed by people who tow. The available Head-Up Display keeps key data in view, while the Rear Camera Mirror and Front and Rear Park Assist help in tight spots or crowded marina lots. At the heart of it all, the 13.4-inch diagonal touch-screen and 12.3-inch diagonal reconfigurable Driver Information Center deliver seamless access to trailering cameras and smart navigation. The available In-Vehicle Trailering App simplifies routine checks and lets you build trailer profiles, while Hitch View, Transparent Trailer View, and Bed View make connections and on-the-fly monitoring feel natural. Whether you pair the available Duramax® 6.6L Turbo-Diesel V8 or the strong 6.6L V8 gas engine, the standard 10-speed automatic transmission ensures smooth power delivery when momentum matters.
- Off-road suspension tuning you can trust
- Factory 35-inch MT tires with serious bite
- Trailering camera views that reduce stress
- Durabed with 12 tie-downs and available Multi-Flex Tailgate

You will notice how the hardware comes together in everyday tasks. Need to load heavy gear? Durabed’s high-strength construction, 83.5 cu. ft. of cargo volume, and 12 standard tie-downs help secure irregular loads. Want an easier step into the box or a convenient work surface? The available Multi-Flex Tailgate adapts in six ways to your plan for the day. When the trailer is on, available HD Surround Vision and Trailer Side Blind Zone Alert help you stay aware of what is around you, while the Safety Alert Seat provides directional feedback for quick, intuitive responses.
At Bob Boyte Chevrolet, serving Wiggins, Biloxi, and Gulfport, our team spends time with each shopper to identify the must-have features that make daily life easier. Some prioritize camera tech and driver assistance for frequent hitching; others value the ZR2’s suspension control on rutted access roads or soft sand near the water. We will help you understand how options like HD Surround Vision, the Bed View Camera, and integrated Google built-in can support your routine, so you spend less time problem-solving and more time getting things done.

Can the ZR2 handle serious towing?

The available trailering cameras and In-Vehicle Trailering App help you work with confidence.
Is the Multi-Flex Tailgate worth it for the ZR2?
