- OMG!!! What an INSANE truck!! Sand, mud, race track, golf course, bush, water & rocks! There's nothing we didn't throw at the all new Silverado 1500 ZR2. We are taking a brief hiatus from our usual Sunday morning travel videos to bring you this uber special video! As ambassadors for GMSV we get to do some really cool stuff, and when we were invited to join in the AU/NZ media/press release for the ZR2 and LTZ Premium Elevated, we agreed in a heartbeat - even though it meant flying to Brisbane from Perth - just hours after we arrived in Perth!
Day 1 was spent at Sirromet testing the trucks out in the baja style track, tearing up Paul Morris's abandoned golf course, and a bit of bush bashing followed by dinner at Lurleen's and a campfire singalong with Kasey Chambers.
Day 2 we took the Silverado's, some caravans and a Malibu boat to Norwell Motorplex where we focused on the technical side of the trucks capabilities. Slalem, skid pan, towing around the race track and a whole lot of fun on the 4x4 track Paul and his team plotted out especially. The day finished off nicely with hot laps in the Corvette with Paul Morris - definitely not something you get to do everyday!
We then take you with us to the Brisbane 4x4 Show to see the first impressions as these all new Silverado's are revealed to the general public in Australia.
At the end of the video we've added all the 'tech talk' for those of you interested in the finer details.

Living the dream!!!
Yes yes! 😁🙌🏼
Great show thanks for taking us along.
Thanks for joining us! 😁😁
What an awesome truck 👍🏻👍🏻
We totally agree 😁😁🙌🏼
Thoroughly enjoyed this ep, would loved to have had the guys discuss what the GVM and GCM details were likely to be on the new trucks
LTZ Premium is 4.5 and ZR2 is 4.2 👍🏼
Try 65 kgs when towing 4.2 T. Not very good for a so called monster
Loving see the new 1500 so in love with the Silverado and so good to see Kokoda there 😁
A beautiful vehicle for sure! 😁
You guys are legends. We just loved your vid - well done!!!
Thanks! 😁😁🙏🏼
Fantastic video
Big thanks for all the time & effort to edit etc this for us
I really like the blue colour on the ZR2
It pops. 💙💙💙
Paul Morris certainly has a great set up at Norwell etc
👍
You’re so welcome! It was a fantastic week 😁😁
Awesome review guys..!!
Thank you 😁😁
Great content guys, would you consider the ZR2 to tow a 3.5t ATX or would it be better to got the LTZ and do some upgrades?
Thanks guys! The ZR2 has a 4200kg BTC but I’d go the LTZ if I was towing an ATX. It gives you that little bit more room with weight. Both amazing cars though
Well worth staying up late and all the flying. You didn’t tell us you got a private show from kasey chambers. Great vid and some cool trucks. 🤙
That was the hilight of the trip! 🔥😍
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown safe travels see you again another time. Maybe on the road
I got my 2023 zr2 . 1 thing it needs is a custom exhaust because it's too Quiet. I will be putting the borla atak exhaust system 😎🤠
Haha - we actually like our truck quiet! Especially when using it as a ‘silent generator’ 😂
Awesome content 👏
Living the dream ✨️
Greetings from south africa 🇿🇦
Thanks legend
Hi! I enjoy watching your videos, if you could add the Turkish language under subtitles it’ll make it easier for me to understand.
Cheers
Thank you! I actually don’t add subtitles to anything - wouldn’t have any idea how to do that I’m sorry!
Really good video guys. I know this wouldn't affect you guys but I'm 6.4 tall and struggle for leg room in most cars. The chevs seem to have more then our ram 1500 which is great news. And also head height is better.
Oh yes - they’re super spacious inside! 😁😁
If I don't get one of those gift packs with my ZR2 in a few weeks im gonna be upset! 🤣
Ummmm … don’t get your hopes up 🤣🤣
🎉🎉
Looks awesome, just a little bit concerned with the use of cv’s ( known point of failure when shock loaded ), still going to book a test drive .
Think you’ll enjoy the test drive 😁👍🏼
Love the video guys but kinda disappointed that there wasnt anything kinda difficult. Tossing up if i should buy one or not but wanna know more about what it can do off road first.
I’m sure there are other reviews around - but from what we’ve seen - these are extremely capable 4WD’s 👍🏼
Cheers mate
They guy at the end of the video forgot to mention the the DFM system is good for valve lifter problems.
Agreed. I disabled mine permantly 2nd week I bought it and had zero issues 68K Kms later
There was a lot of info we didn’t film - the video would have been two hours long otherwise 😅
Awesome!! Is the indicator stalk on the right side this time??
Hmm - didn’t pay attention to that but think it’s still on the left 🤔
i think is a very good car, but there are not many service Station in Australia Perth and the east coast.
There are heaps of service stations! 😁
Hey Chris and Miriam. We currently have a y62 and have run into the lack of payload issue. We are 200kg as passengers and 360 ball weight. Would the ZR2 suffice? We are worried about payload and rear axle load limits with the ZR2
Hey Andrew…mate best thing to do would be to jump on GMSV website for these numbers and do your homework from there. 😁
How come the sandy taupe colour isn’t available?
That’s a question for the guys in the US 👍🏼
🤙🕶
😁😁
They really need to up the warranty period to at least 5 years.
👍🏼
We live in Australia.
"z" is pronounced zed, NOT zee.
Please, help keep and respect what little of our cultural identity we have left.
We are not the United States of Australia.
Thank you.
Thanks for your input Rodney - but they are an American truck - and I (Miriam) grew up and went to school over there and have ALWAYS said zee, not zed. I can pronounce it how I want 😁👍🏼
@@AussieDestinationsUnknown haha, Good onya Miriam. you tell em😁🤟
Pity it's payload when towing 4.2 T is around 65 kgs. Absolutely pathetic for some overpriced remanufactured rubbish
Typical comment from someone who knows nothing about them. These are the 4x4 focused truck. The LTZ Premium Elevated is 4.5 T and designed more for on-road, towing etc. 4.2 is the absolute max - anyone who tries to tow the absolute max weight with their tow rig doesn’t have much of an idea of how to tow safely 👍🏼
Calm down princess ' if ya cant afford one dont take it out on everyone else
