Used Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for Sale Manhattan KS


The right used Chevrolet Silverado 1500 for sale in Manhattan, KS, depends on what you haul, how far you tow, and how much comfort you want in the cab. Murdock Manhattan Chevrolet keeps a changing mix of pre-owned Silverado trucks for drivers in Manhattan and near Junction City and Wamego who work hard along U.S. 24 all week and head for the water on weekends.

Since inventory turns over often, here's how to read a listing, what each engine brings, and how to line up financing. Start browsing used Silverado 1500 trucks now.

Which Used Silverado 1500 Should You Shop?


Our used Silverado 1500 inventory can span several model years. The fourth generation (2019 and newer) has the most modern engines and tech, and the 2022 refresh added a new front end and an updated interior on LT and above. Narrow the list by cab style, engine, and mileage, then compare model years to see where the refresh changes things.

Match the cab to the work. Hauling square bales out of Pottawatomie County hay fields or loading lumber for a deck build points to a Double Cab with a standard bed. Families heading to Milford Lake with fishing gear will want a Crew Cab, and the rutted gravel near Pillsbury Crossing is Trail Boss and ZR2 territory.

What Engines Power a Used Silverado 1500?


Fourth-generation Silverado 1500 trucks come with four main engines: a 2.7L turbocharged four-cylinder, a 5.3L V8, a 6.2L V8, and a 3.0L Duramax turbo-diesel. Early work trims also offered a 4.3L V6. Output changed over the years, so the model year matters as much as the badge on the hood.

Torque is the number to watch if you tow. The diesel's low-end pull makes a loaded stock trailer feel lighter on K-177 through tallgrass ranch country. Dependability is part of the appeal, too: The 2022 Silverado 1500 LTD ranked highest among large light-duty pickups in the J.D. Power 2025 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study.²

FAQs

What's the difference between the Silverado 1500 and the 2500 HD?

The 1500 is a half-ton truck built for daily driving with solid towing and hauling. The 2500 HD steps up to a heavy-duty frame and engines for bigger loads and fifth-wheel trailers. If your trailer stays under the 1500's rating, the half-ton rides better day to day.

Which Silverado 1500 engine gets the best MPG?

The 3.0L Duramax diesel is the most efficient Silverado 1500 engine. On 2023 models, it's EPA-estimated at up to 29 MPG highway with 2WD.³ Murdock Manhattan Chevrolet can help you sort diesel trucks by model year and drivetrain.

Should I buy 4WD or 2WD?

If you deal with gravel, mud, boat ramps, or snow, 4WD is worth it. Two-wheel-drive trucks are lighter and usually tow a little more than the same truck with 4WD, so they make sense for pavement-only work.
