Yes, getting ridiculous! 4 light bars, 2 front winches, huge sound system(who uses one of them, let alone 2 in the bush??) and a freakin TV. Whoops, forgot about the light show inside the canopy! C'mon guys! I know you have sponsors but there is a line and you've crossed it. It's becoming corny.
@@dwanehart8150 every minute of every episode is now a sales pitch. It used to be about adventures, now it's about selling products with adventures to promote them
I'm American and it's out of reach for us. These new utes/trucks are built the same way as older utes. The new ones has a million sensors and the replacement/repairs are very difficult and expensive.
Out of the box suspension is mint, just people don't understand spool valves here yet and how to tune them. My zr2 feels like driving over a cloud on corrugations
They're engineered for American reality, not Mad Max land. Their range is towing a machine to a construction site to being an unnecessary daily driver.
I have been waiting for y'all to come around, and see how an American truck does in Australia. I'm looking forward to seeing y'all's adventures with this truck.
I absolutely love Jase and Simon and ALL 4, however these builds are getting more and more into the upper 1% class. Not many can afford $250K plus for a 4WD tourer. Sure it is great, but of all your viewers, I bet only 1% could afford these builds, or they are young, overpaid FIFO DINKs. I do love the snorkels, and the bar and wrap are outstanding. Jase next year PLEASE do an ISUZU 155/75 NPS dual cab, as these are getting MASSIVELY popular over last 2-3 years.....
What happen to the good old days and keeping things simple.... Plus that Bullbar looks like its hanging a bit too low. Be interesting to see how it performs and what issues pop up (if they are revealed)
Now that I have seen this video, I understand the amazing performance this pickup has due to all the bells and whistles that you have installed on your pickup, best regards from Ecuador
just curious in regard to all the added weight , appreciate you have tried to use aluminium for most but all the fitout components are heavy and the ZR2 only has 700KG payload so by the time you filled up the Bigger fuel tank , fresh water tanks and supplies to actually do long range mission you would not be able to Carry any Passengers < Is there a reason you didn't opt for the 2500 that would have been more practical with capacity ? DOES look Bloody Good however
Thought the same, but once upgraded. Steps it up a bit! FIGURES BEFORE AFTER GROSS VEHICLE MASS 3300KG 4300KG PAYLOAD 760KG 1760KG GROSS COMBINATION MASS 7160KG 7160KG
Not sure who supplied the information but the engine is a variant of the LT2 motor known as L87 and the transmission is a Chevrolet 10L80 which was a collaboration with Ford, not an Allison
This will be an outback weapon ..👍thanks for the chat at the Sydney 4x4 show on Saturday Clearview stand ('old mate' with 80 series and intercooler that wouldn't quite fit 15mm). Looking forward to the new series next year.
I Like the choice of the ZR2, probably the only American ute I’d consider. Looks really cool, without being over the top, and the engine isn’t some ridiculous supercharged mess
If you didn't have all the sponsors, how much would a rig like that run ya? 250,000? 300,000? Would be nice to see a comparison between this and the F250 build. Maybe you could do a video comparing the two and tell us which you like better after you do a season of touring on it.
Wow, what an awsome 400K truck, wont be seeing many of those on the tracks. Need a Harrop blower to give it some more grunt to go with that Chevy V8 growl. Would make for a totally awsome raffle (or one like it) for kids charity. I'll be sticking with my 78 though, that's about as high tech as I'm willing to go for remote traveling, without the multivehicle backup and budget these utubers have.
If I was an 11yo who was subscribed to every 4WD channel on youtube and I found a winning lotto ticket on the street, this is exactly the setup I'd have.
You absolutely MUST get a Dynamic Fuel Management disable on this engine! The lifters commonly fail when DFM is active. Disable it and you will be golden.
needs a harrop supercharger ..... kinda disappointed one wasn't added "australia toughest" but no supercharger to help the big rig move with all that added weight plus the toy haulers that'll be dragged along behind
Hi Jase I watch all 4 Adventure I'm sorry for the big CHEVY that was Damaged 💔 Hart Braking suff but I'm Glad that Jessie was not Hurt ,,,,but i was very Excited about the Creb Track in the wet I Really Shows yours and Simon's experience in the Bush wow we mate
I see from a few of the comments a bit of negative feed back. Beaning of age there was negative stuff when Toyota hit the market back in the day, would you bag a Landcruiser now? Always enjoy your adventures guys, keep up the interesting content. PS yes I would love that truck as most would what a weapon.
Are you joking? A huge amount of people still get landcruisers shit and always will. True alot of it is out of jealousy but still. If you looked in to the yank Ute's they really are not Ute's but over sized wagons when it comes to carrying capability. And reliability ehh.....please.
Can we have a look at the under side, before you get any mud on it? 😂 Yes, I've seen the aftermath of the roll over. Bad luck, hope you can build another truck and show us some of the awesome country we have here in Australia. All the best fellas.
Feels like I'm losing my dad that's got all the knowledge to share, but I am 59. Miss the grumpy and inpatient motor mechanic when it come to Woody's questions, ya make a good team..
Im a peasant patrol guy myself, one of those huge monstrosities wouldnt make it through the bush tracks where i live, already cane the paint and panel on the GU to get down em.
Yup next to no payload, can never tow or have it's full payload at the same time. Very questionable fuel usage. Reliable gearbox?? Please.. many more things to list haha
I just looked it up and the standard GVM is only 3300kgs but it weighs 2500kgs, leaving only 750kgs payload! A 1980 hilux can carry more...these are really just giant SUVs in a way
Yup my missus 1996 gen 3 surf has 750kg payload. All yank Ute's suffer from this huge over site. At 4.5t towing this ute only has a payload of 68kgs* and people and fuel weight is included in that. So a very light person could sit in the ute ut wouldn't be allowed to have any fuel lool
Would you still make the guarantee if there was actual risk of a real world cost? Would you bet $1000, your "rig", your house? Or is it a keyboard warrior guarantee?
It's a shame there was no mention of the brand name of the Satellite connectivity. I assume it wasn't sponsored so it wasn't mentioned, but it may be vey beneficial to the 4wd fraternity. It certainly didn't look like a Starlink dish. Please let your FANS know.
If I'm honest, looking at the damage in the end footage, that truck is too big and too heavy. The build is just pure excess and unnecessary. I would choose the D-Max any day between the two builds, and frankly, the vehicles peaked with Back In Black. It was exactly what it should be. Everything that mattered and was needed, was there, and I honestly think it outperformed the builds since. The 200 series and the Ford where fragile, or got stuck more often. That being said, it seem that the D-Max is now what Back In Black was back then. The D-Max is rock solid and the 79 was also perfect and reliable.

now your next challenge you need too grow 2 ft taller so you can reach things easier lmfao or give it to simon
next build TRX ram ? 800hp jase do it
so chev,, are following ford & dodge, as usual.. cant think of sht themselves.. ausie.. id be buying the power wagon,, buy, drive, no mods needed..but, i dont have 500k to blow, by the time your finished..
ooohhh,, fk,,its an LS .. dont touch it.. if it was the 6.6 duramax isuzu. no probs..
I miss the humble builds people can relate to 😢
same. miss the Toyotas. just got a 08 Tacoma I want to build up from watching the older episodes for ideas.
I agree. The ones that you don’t sprang 50k+ and it is as good as a stock 30k 4x4
There's plenty of shows for that..I love these bigger rigs
Same here
It’s good to see high end builds to, aim higher in life brother be inspired don’t be that guy
These builds are getting more "Pimp My Ride" everytime. I feel like the mext rig will have a live Barra tank or hot tub in it
Yes, getting ridiculous! 4 light bars, 2 front winches, huge sound system(who uses one of them, let alone 2 in the bush??) and a freakin TV. Whoops, forgot about the light show inside the canopy! C'mon guys! I know you have sponsors but there is a line and you've crossed it. It's becoming corny.
Well then dont watch it fuk it's that simple
I remember when the show wasn't a sellout
@@dwanehart8150 every minute of every episode is now a sales pitch. It used to be about adventures, now it's about selling products with adventures to promote them
I'm American and it's out of reach for us. These new utes/trucks are built the same way as older utes. The new ones has a million sensors and the replacement/repairs are very difficult and expensive.
So much for the awesomeness of the "out of the box" Baha suspension.
@jpash7166😂😂
Out of the box suspension is mint, just people don't understand spool valves here yet and how to tune them. My zr2 feels like driving over a cloud on corrugations
I came here to also say why trash the DSSV shocks with just plain struts. Peak Suspension makes coilover upgrades for the DSSV.
Had to be thrown out for the GVM upgrade.
So why buy a ZR2@@einfelder8262
ZR2 sticker on the fridge from where the snorkel was is a nice touch!!
Longtime fan of the show and proud to see a Chevy represented!
US engineering meets reality.
This trip should be entertaining!
They're engineered for American reality, not Mad Max land. Their range is towing a machine to a construction site to being an unnecessary daily driver.
Them side steps will cop a really good beating thats for sure!! Cant wait to see the performance 💥
Ready have by looks of it at end of video

I like it when he takes it 'home.' All that pallet racking etc in the background... I want a shed like that.
What happen to the good old days and keeping things simple....
Plus that Bullbar looks like its hanging a bit too low. Be interesting to see how it performs and what issues pop up (if they are revealed)
You can already see in the shorts at the end the bullbar has been doing some ploughing haha
It’s such a shame that a4a has gone so far away from its core values as a 4wd channel ,
Now that I have seen this video, I understand the amazing performance this pickup has due to all the bells and whistles that you have installed on your pickup, best regards from Ecuador
What did you do to stop the roof leaking where you added the nutserts?

It's about time jase you came back from the dark side with that ford and got a beautiful Chevy Silverado GREAT STUFF Mate
Not sure who supplied the information but the engine is a variant of the LT2 motor known as L87 and the transmission is a Chevrolet 10L80 which was a collaboration with Ford, not an Allison
Can't wait to see it on the tracks either mate.🎉👍🐕🤠
What an absolute beast. Can't wait to see it lit up. One thing you forgot but I know you haven't got the room is the NudieBoss.
I haven't seen a carton for the workers come on it speaks thousands of words
This will be an outback weapon ..👍thanks for the chat at the Sydney 4x4 show on Saturday Clearview stand ('old mate' with 80 series and intercooler that wouldn't quite fit 15mm). Looking forward to the new series next year.
Friggin awesome bro.
Cheers from NZ 😎🎸🤘
The canopy portions are spot on.
Great video as always legends! 👍

Funny this rig is on car sales up for 250k
Beautiful Chevy.
V8 America 😍😍😍
Awesome to see something different!!
Looking forward to seeing this hit the tracks - epic build!
300 series was the same...just got a tv and internet.
Nice Build. I love the final Rapped colour.
What a beast of a truck!!!
She looks mint Jase. Congrats, can't wait to see where you take it. 🫣🫣
Can't wait to hear it roar!

well, it's an LS, so the sky's the limit on power mods. Not that you want a highly stressed engine where those guys go.
Darn nice truck, I reckon smaller lighter vehicles are better for bush work, my old Suzuki would climb trees
Just don't let Simon talk you into bog-holing it straight away like one of the previous builds... which ended in tears!
I can’t wait to get my hands on one of those buggers
Funny hearing the Norwegian guy with the Lazer gadget hearing a auzzie accent in norwegian hehehe love it 🤣🤣

Another super amazing built as usual, love Jase builds of different vehicle each year for each season. DREAM RIGS
Sorry to disappoint you but it does NOT have an Alison tra tnsmission it has a 10 speed designed by GM and Ford together
Every one bagging this video doesn’t have money like this man😂
needs a harrop supercharger ..... kinda disappointed one wasn't added "australia toughest" but no supercharger to help the big rig move with all that added weight plus the toy haulers that'll be dragged along behind
Bring back the basic build that mush watchers of your videos can actually relate to..
Love the smile on your face , like a kid in a candy shop. Awesome build .
Does the vehicle have a GVM upgrade and is it under weight now after all the upgrades.
How heavy is the norweld tray and canopy.
Good to see a Silverado and not broken down f truck
Should have got the 2500hd

Nice taste in upgrades hey twin air takes was smick 🎉
Great work guys respect
Must be nice to be able to do all that at no cost to yourself??
If its jase and simon certificated... its a great off road vehicle in my opinion 👍👍

Damn that"s one good looking rig.
