Announced back in September during the 2019 State Fair of Texas, the 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Trail Boss Midnight Edition has leveled up with a couple of official accessories, and was put on display last week during the 2019 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The only concept parts on this build are the Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac off-road tires that can fit 20-inch wheels. This is noteworthy because the standard Trail Boss comes with 18-inch wheels on the DuraTracs, while the 20-inch upgrade utilizes less aggressive all-season tires. While this wheel/tire package remains to be a “concept” for now, it’s likely that these rubber rollers will be found on the upcoming model years of the Silverado 1500 Trail Boss, or perhaps even the more capable Silverado ZRX.

Official Chevrolet Accessories on the exterior are as follows:

  • 20-inch black wheels: $2,200
  • Matte black bedside decals: $375
  • Baja Designs off-road LED 40-inch light bar: $1,079
  • Wiring harness for Baja Designs light bar: $129
  • Silverado script sport bar: $995
  • 4-inch assist steps in black: $725
  • Short bed soft-top rollup tonneau cover w/ bowtie logo: $500

For the interior, here’s what this 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 features:

  • Illuminated “Silverado” door sill plates: $350
  • Kicker audio system: $1,249
  • Interior Trim Kit: $200
  • All weather floor liners: $200 ($120 front, $80 rear)

Performance upgrades:

  • Borla quad-tip cat-back exhaust: $1,799
  • Red Brembo front and rear brakes: $2,895 (front), $575 (rear)

The 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Midnight Edition will be available on the LT Trail Boss and Custom Trail Boss trims. The special trim level will include a 2-inch factory suspension lift and the Z71 Off-Road Package which adds Rancho mono-tube off-road dampers, an automatic locking rear differential, skid plates, black 18-inch wheels, along with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac tires.

The new 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 Midnight Edition pickup truck was expected to be available for order in October, with deliveries happening sometime before Thanksgiving, but it’s likely the UAW Strike has affected this timeline. For more, have a look at our exclusive gallery below.

Muscle Cars & Trucks was founded by Manoli Katakis - an automotive media veteran that has been covering the latest car news since 2009. His journalism has uncovered dozens of major product changes, updates, plans, and cancellations long before automakers were ready to make things official.

Some highlights over the years of his reporting include the uncovering of the Zora trademark before anybody else reported on the coming of a mid-engine Corvette, as well as the dead-accurate reporting of the coming of the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2, two years before it hit the market, and even before the debut of the concept vehicle. This type of reporting has immediately continued here, with reports of the original seventh-generation Camaro plans being shelved, as well as what's in store for the Chevrolet Silverado.

Some of his work can be found on massive automotive media outlets, such as Motor1. He also has been a guest on the 910AM Radio Station with Detroit News auto critic Henry Payne, as well as the enthusiast-oriented Camaro Show podcast.

Over the years, Manoli has interviewed various automotive industry titans, leaders, and people that make things happen otherwise. These include figureheads such as GM CEO Mary Barra, GM President Mark Reuss, automotive aftermarket icon Ken Lingenfelter, Dodge firebrand Tim Kuniskis, along with various chief engineers of vehicles such as the Ford F-150 & Mustang, Chevrolet Camaro & Corvette, and many more.

At MC&T, Manoli is taking his journalism expertise, deeply planted sources, driving abilities, and automotive industry knowledge to new levels, covering more vehicles and brands than ever before. This is the place where you will continue to read groundbreaking stories about American performance vehicles, pickup trucks, and sport utility vehicles. Here is where you’ll also read insights and quotes from various automotive subject matter experts on the latest relevant products, as well as some of the latest official news from their manufacturers.

Fun facts: he also once beat Corvette Racing driver Tommy Milner in an autocross with a Chevrolet Bolt EV. The biggest vehicle he’s ever driven is a John Deere mining truck. Besides a go-kart, the smallest vehicle he’s driven has been a Hyundai i10. He’s also spent time in the cockpit of various American performance vehicle icons, including the fifth-generation Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, Dodge Challenger Demon, and Ford Mustang GT350R. He has reviewed dozens of trucks, SUVs, and performance vehicles over the years.

One of his favorite new vehicles on the market today happens to be the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Bison. He is also a card carrying member of the Sports Car Club of America, and regularly participates in Detroit Region autocross events.
