Chev Cheyenne?

[BlackSilver]

Traveling in California yesterday, I saw a truck badged as a Chev Cheyenne. Looked exactly like my Silverado, LTZ trim level, but badged with "CHEYENNE" in place of "SILVERADO" badges. Usual bow-tie badges, etc.

Isn't that what they're called in Mexico ?? (don't recall where I've heard that)

+1 the Cheyenne is how they are branded in Mexico.

The Pre-1999 models had the Cheyenne package, which was your basic run of the mill no thrills package. Just a basic set up without the fancy extras.

There's a Cheyenne Edition" pkg in Canada right now. The Silverado badge is still there & a small Cheyenne Edition badge is added below.

Wasn't there a Cheyenne in states a long time ago?

Yes there was a Cheyenne back in the mid 90's and earlier. The truck trim levels were Cheyenne, Scottdale, and Silverado. I believe they changed it to the "Silverado" in the 99 body style change.

I had a Cheyenne, it was a 1998 3500 reg cab, manual trans. Plain jane, I would have to say would be like the WT or the LS model now. It was a solid truck

It's a special kit put out by MDG Global that has to be ordered through a dealer. There is an entire thread about it here:

Custom, Cheyenne and Silverado were all trim variations on the C10/20/30 from the late '60's '70's and early '80's.

Showin' my age here, but I had these back in the day.

Cheyenne Trim level first debuted in 1971 to take the RPO code YE9, replacing the previous years badging of CST ( Custom Sport Truck and yes I am a 67-72 enthusiast). Cheyenne Super was top of the line until 1975 when the Silverado trim came out. After that the Cheyenne badging hung around as a mid level trim package until the end of the GM T400 platform in the 2000 model year. After that everything is a 'Silverado" with varying levels of trim ( W/T, LS,LT, LTZ, and so on).

 

In Canada as mentioned we also have a "Cheyenne Edition" on the lots now. It's kind of like the old Cheyenne as it's middle of the line. Has power windows, locks and mirrors of course, but isn't anything really fancy.

They were sure obsessed with Wyoming.. Don't know why.. The only real nice part of Wyoming is the north/western portions.

This truck was absolutely identical to mine except for the "CHEYENNE" in place of "SILVERADO" badges. LTZ trim level. Louisiana license plates.

some guy probably bought the badgeing and replaced silvy....back in the day i think cheyanne was the generic package and scottsdale was the luxary of the day until the silverado...i can't imagine what is what like when people heard of air conditioning and power steering lol
