If you need a hardworking, no-nonsense full-size truck at a real-world price, this 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Limited Regular Cab Work Truck for sale at Import Auto World in Hayward, CA is worth a serious look. With a proven V8 under the hood, a full 8-foot bed, and honest working-truck bones, this rig is built for buyers who actually use their truck — not just park it in the driveway.
 

About This 2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Limited Regular Cab

The 2022 Silverado 1500 Limited occupies an interesting spot in the market — it bridges the classic Silverado lineup with updated engineering, giving buyers the benefit of a well-sorted, field-tested platform without the price premium of the brand-new generation. At 112,518 miles, this truck has seen real use, which is exactly what Work Truck trim buyers expect. For context, the 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 in these trucks is widely known to run well past 200,000 miles with proper maintenance, meaning there's still significant life left here. The regular cab, long-bed configuration makes it particularly valuable for contractors, landscapers, farmers, and anyone who hauls gear, equipment, or materials regularly.
 

2022 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Performance and Engine

5.3L EcoTec3 V8 — Built to Work

Under the hood sits Chevrolet's 5.3-liter EcoTec3 V8, a naturally aspirated engine that produces around 355 horsepower and 383 lb-ft of torque in this generation. Paired with an 8-speed automatic transmission with overdrive, it delivers smooth, confident power whether you're merging onto I-880 or towing a loaded trailer up the Altamont Pass.

The EcoTec3 family uses Dynamic Fuel Management, which deactivates cylinders under light loads to conserve fuel — helpful for Bay Area stop-and-go driving where fuel costs add up fast. Running in 2WD keeps the powertrain efficient for everyday hauling and highway miles. Real-world fuel economy typically lands in the 14–18 MPG range depending on load and driving conditions.
 

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Features and Interior

Work Truck Trim — Straightforward and Functional

The Work Truck (WT) trim is Chevrolet's base configuration, and that's not a knock — it's genuinely purpose-built. You get a vinyl or cloth interior that's easy to clean after a job site, manual controls that are intuitive and durable, and a no-fuss dash layout. These trucks typically include a 7-inch or larger infotainment display, Bluetooth connectivity, a backup camera (standard on all 2022 models per federal mandate), and trailer brake controller provisions.

The 8-foot bed is the real star here. You can lay a full sheet of plywood flat, haul a cord of firewood, or load an ATV without worrying about overhang. For anyone running tools or materials regularly around the East Bay, Tri-Valley, or Central Valley, that extra bed length is a genuine daily advantage.
 

Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Reliability and Ownership

What Owners and Mechanics Say About the EcoTec3 5.3L

The 5.3L EcoTec3 has a strong reputation among truck owners and fleet managers alike. It's one of the most reliable V8 engines General Motors has produced in the modern era, with relatively low maintenance costs compared to diesel alternatives. Common ownership considerations at higher mileage include monitoring the AFM/DFM lifters — a known wear point on some units — along with standard fluid services and spark plugs. Many owners proactively install a range disabler or DoD delete kit to extend engine longevity, and with a truck at this mileage, it's worth discussing service history with our team.

The 8-speed automatic transmission in this generation is smooth and well-regarded, and the 2WD drivetrain keeps complexity and repair costs lower than 4x4 equivalents. For buyers operating primarily in the Bay Area flatlands or Central Valley, 2WD is a perfectly sensible choice.

The platform is mature and well-sorted, the EcoTec3 5.3L is one of the most reliable V8s in the segment, and parts and service support are widely available throughout the Bay Area.
 

How many miles is too many for a used Silverado 1500?

What does the Work Truck (WT) trim on the Silverado include?

The Work Truck trim is Chevrolet's entry-level configuration, focused on utility over luxury. It typically includes a backup camera, Bluetooth, a 7-inch infotainment display, durable vinyl or cloth seating, trailer hitch provisions, and a tough, utilitarian interior designed to hold up to daily job-site use.
 

What is the towing capacity of a 2022 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3L V8?

In 2WD configuration with the 5.3L EcoTec3 V8 and 8-speed automatic, the Silverado 1500 is rated to tow up to approximately 11,500 lbs when properly equipped.

Is a 2WD Silverado 1500 good enough for Bay Area use?

For the vast majority of Bay Area and Central Valley driving — including highway hauling, job sites, and urban deliveries — 2WD is completely adequate.
