My silverado goes through coolant like crazy but I have never had a leak anywhere. Where is all the coolant going so quickly?

check the front and rear intake gaskets, there only cylicone and VERY notorious for seeping.

I would suggest a combustion leak test in your radiator. the kit is 40 bucks or so and not hard to perform, lots of youtube vids on it. it will tell you if there are combustion gasses in the coolant and therefore a bad head gasket.
