The high-performance Chevrolet Silverado Reaper is now available.

Co-developed by Lingenfelter Performance Engineering and Southern Comfort Automotive, the Reaper is a specialty pickup truck with more aggressive styling and plenty of off-road performance. Available powerplant upgrades include a supercharged 5.3 liter or 6.2 liter while buyers can also opt for 17-inch beadlock off-road wheels with General tires, bold Reaper graphics and a frozen matte paint finish.

The Reaper is available at select General Motors’ dealerships and comes standard in either red, white, gray or black. Other standard features include a three-inch lift long-travel off-road suspension, Fox Racing shocks, 20-inch exclusive wheels with General Grabber LT tires and a Lingenfelter performance exhaust system. On the outside, the custom Silverado features a new hood and grille assembly, high-clearance front bumper, wide-body fender flares, a wheel-to-wheel rock guard with removable side steps and exterior Reaper badging.

The interior has also been spiced up with embroidered headrests, door panel accents, a gauge package and an auxiliary switch panel for flood lights and other accessory upgrades. The pickup comes standard with a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty on Lingenfelter upgrades and Southern Comfort Automotive restyled parts.
