Chevrolet K1500 – the collective page of the four-wheel-drive C/K pickup: V8 engines of 5,328 to 6,473 cm³, 1,830 to 2,578 kg unladen, Silverado and early Tahoe trims
This collective page gathers the Chevrolet K1500, the four-wheel-drive half-ton range within the Chevrolet C/K pickups. At Chevrolet the letter K denoted four-wheel drive (C stood for rear-wheel drive), 1500 the lightest payload class; the GMT400-generation K1500 was built from 1988 to 1998/99. Among the model names are both plain pickups with trim lines such as Silverado and the early Tahoe versions, which up to 1995 were sold as a two-door SUV trim of the K1500 before Tahoe became a model of its own.

The register lists 15 versions with 134 to 140 kW, displacements from 5,328 to 6,473 cm³ from eight-cylinder engines throughout, unladen weights from 1,830 to 2,578 kg and gross weights from 2,540 to 3,500 kg; lengths lie between 5,050 and 5,700 mm, widths between 1,920 and 2,100 mm.
In the 1990s the K1500 was one of North America's best-selling pickups and the direct rival to the Ford F-150 4x4; the combination of V8 engines, high payload and a rugged four-wheel-drive system made it both a work and a recreational vehicle, while its Tahoe and Suburban derivatives paved the way to the modern SUV segment.
On a used K1500, rust on the frame, brake lines and wings, the condition of the transfer case and front differential, the mileage of the V8 engine, and the condition of the automatic transmission and clutch packs all count; parts are widely available through the North American and European GM parts trade.
