GM had 4 assembly plants building the trucks (GMT 900). The most productive and highest quality one was in Canada, they closed this plant to add the production to Fort Wayne, which at the time was their worst producing plant. The other plants are Flint, and Silao (Mexico).

The Silao plant manufactures Escalade ESV/EXT, Avalanche, Suburban, and Yukon XL. The Arlington plant builds similar vehicles as Silao.

Edit, Silao now builds some Silverado's starting with model year 2014 http://www.mlive.com/business/mid-mi...of_2014_s.html
