When in Dallas, Texas you only want the biggest and the best in everything. If a steak isn’t falling off the plate, it’s not big enough, if the sports stadium pride isn’t loud enough to hear in the next town over it’s not big enough, and if your vehicle can’t be used as a second home it’s not big enough. Lucky for Texas, Dallas is home to many big and bold Chevy dealerships with their impressive collection of larger than life vehicle options. When you’re looking for a Chevy in Dallas you may have a large selection, but let’s start by focusing on the highlights. Here are three vehicles from each body category that excel in size:
Chevy Impala
The Chevy Impala is one of the larger full-size sedans on the market. Known not only for its size, but also its agility, elegance, and innovative nature, the Chevy Impala, is a legend in both name and body.
Price
The starting price of the graceful Chevy Impala is currently around $27,000 brand new for the basic LS trim. If you want to upgrade to the more luxurious LT trim with remote start, dual climate control, and heated mirrors, it will cost closer to $31,000. Lastly, there is the Premier trim which upgrades everything from the engine to the seating starting at almost $37,500.
Dimensions
The dimensions of the 2018 version of the Chevy Impala is 201 inches long 73 inches wide and 59 inches high. The curb weight does stay fairly low though at 3,662 to 3,867 pounds so that the Chevy Impala can keep its athletic build.
Utility
For a sedan, the 18 cubic feet of cargo space the Chevy Impala offers is fairly luxurious and useful. This model may not be made for towing, but you definitely won’t feel cramped with the amount of utility and trunk space the Chevy Impala offers.
Performance
Just like the Impala, we don’t believe in wasting time, so let’s just get right to the performance facts:
- Standard 2.5L DOHC 4-cylinder DI engine 197 hp and 191 lb-ft of torque.
- Optional 3.6L DOHC V6 DI engine 305 hp and 264 lb-ft of torque.
- Max fuel efficiency of 30 mpg highway
Chevy Suburban
The Chevy Suburban has an inspiring record as the longest-lasting automotive namesake still on the market today. As a full-size SUV, the Suburban is Chevy in Dallas that never disappoints in the way of utility and convenience. This is one big automotive that knows how to push itself beyond all limitations.
Price
The latest starting price for the Chevy Suburban is around $50,000. This may seem like a big number at first, but it is also important to match the price to the overall value of what you are getting. Right from the start you will be getting not only an impressively sized vehicle that can fit the whole extended family and then some, but you will also be getting some of the most luxury features like tri-zone climate control, rear park assist, remote start, and an 8 inch touchscreen infotainment system all for the bottom price. Honestly, it is more difficult to imagine what more they could even offer with a start so strong.
Dimensions
The dimensions of the 2018 version of the Chevy Impala is 224 inches long 81 inches wide and 74 inches high. The curb weight is a hefty 5,586 to 5,822 pounds. Overall, it’s a big beauty that just loves its seemingly limitless space.
Utility
The 2018 Chevy Suburban offers 39.3 cubic feet of cargo space which upgrades to a massive 121.7 cubic feet if you just easily fold down seat area. Honestly, that kind of space speaks for itself.
Performance
The 2018 Chevy Suburban is offered with only one engine, but that is hardly an issue as it is the perfect match for its size and performance needs. The 5.3L EcoTech3 V8 engine with 355 hp and 383 lb-ft of torque is the ideal match for the Chevy Suburban. It also has a max fuel efficiency of 23 mpg highway and an immense 6,000 to 6,300 pounds of towing capacity. All in all, one thing is for sure; this is not simply some parent’s carpool SUV.
Silverado
The Silverado series including the Silverado 1500 and Silverado HD is widely known as one of the top three pickup trucks in the nation. Always competing with Fords F-150, the Silverado knows how to stand its ground and can haul with the best of them.

Choose this, and you can get either an 8 ft. long bed or 6.6 ft. regular bed. The Double Cab has two full and two half doors, a 5 passenger cabin, and comes with either a long or short bed.
