Chevrolet's Silverado High Desert SEMA concept keeps it simple

Featuring a few little additions to an existing product line, this is by far Chevrolet's tamest concept at the SEMA aftermarket trade show.

Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car fanatic, he started working his way through the echelons of the automotive industry, starting out as social-media director of a small European-focused garage outside of Chicago. From there, he moved to the editorial side, penning several written features in Total 911 Magazine before becoming a full-time auto writer, first for a local Chicago outlet and then for CNET Cars.

The High Desert trim adds capability and luxury in equal doses.

The High Desert was actually the first trim to offer magnetorheological suspension on the Silverado.

The SEMA-specific High Desert truck adds a performance exhaust that adds 7 horsepower, bigger brakes, all-weather floor liners and an illuminated bowtie grille emblem. Twenty-two-inch wheels with a bronze finish round out the upgrade list.

It's not a heavy-duty pickup, but it has a heavy-duty presence for sure.

The idea for the light-up Chevrolet bowtie was totally jacked from Mercedes-Benz.

These bronze wheels are rather impressive in person. It should be a factory option.
