Got my 2024 Zr2 Duramax for 69k it’s a freaking beast wouldn’t want to trade it for anything else ! 5k miles and nothing wrong with it with it plus i got extra warranty so 🤷🏽♂️ so far a good experience on my end
I recently purchased a new 2024 Chevy 2500 ZR2. Much more truck for almost the same price after discount. I went with the 6.6 gasser due to not towing more than my boat that is 6K pounds. Love the 2500 look and the way it drives.
I bought one after yours. I love it. Its skinny, which i like, most trails are tight as it is. It has a v8, not a turbo six, which sounds great and has plenty of power. The tires are annoying, but its possible to put on bigger tires with some mods. What you have to consider, is that this truck was over $70k. If they made a TRX or Raptor direct competitor, it would have easily been over $80, which is why I went with it in the first place. Maybe it is a product failure, but they haven't done a good job at selling it for what it is...a perfect off road trail cruiser. No, it won't jump dunes, but lets be honest, who does that. I just built an RHO on the Ram website, beautiful truck. With the same interior options its $85k. That's just a ton of money. A halfway cool truck actually makes sense, too bad they didn't reach the market it should have excelled in.
I bought a used 23 Silverado ZR2 this year. I got it cheap and I love it. I know it's not a TRX or RaptorR. I sell heavy equipment so I'm on nasty sites and mud holes regularly. Its very capable and still comfortable on the road. Probably not worth 80k new but a low milage last year model for 55k, I was very happy with it.
@texZR2 Rick Hendrick in South Carolina. They do have a lot of them and I think he is right, they are struggling to sell it. I would just say they aren't that bad. Definitely not as capable as the big boys, but fun. I might try and put 35s on it next time I need tires with a lift and/or some trimming of the wheel wells
@@kennyef Used vehicles as you know.. get hammer with high interest rate loans. That is a primary reason why it is difficult to sell a used 60K truck.. and they have to drop the prices. It is also regional. Congrats on your truck.. I think you will love it.
@texZR2 absolutely right. They didn't like that I was a cash buyer. Tried to get me with extras like Low Jack and tire warranty but I had them remove all that.
Got my 2020 Silverado LT Z71 new for $45k, upgraded the shocks, 3.5in lift, running 35s... all for less than what it would've cost me to get a trailboss or ZR2 🤷♂
@@S58985 yea thats the problem. They should went straight at them and pointed out that those trucks are ridiculous, and the ZR2 is more than capable for 99% of owners.
@TheZR2Kid i think it would to expensive just like this truck, and I feel chevy wants to keep it affordable enough for their consumer if you compare the zr2 to a trail hunter Tacoma, the Tacoma is like 15 to 20k more
that tinder date looked more the 400 lbs lol. They should of put bigger suspension and a monster motor in the silverado zr2 and may be it would have had a chance . Love my colorado zr2 s . yes more colorado content
I don't know the numbers, but I can just say the ZR2 is right for me. I've owned a Raptor (Gen1) it was great, but I can't justify the price any longer. I want a manual locker, and high end suspension. The Trail Boss and the Tremor are nice, but the ride quality is a step below the ZR2 Silverado. Maybe it's that I'm over 50 now but I'm not looking for supercharged power of the TRX or Raptor R, but a good ride and good fuel mileage... plus LOCKERS. I've got to have lockers.
Pax Power or the Fox Factory truck…. that is what the ZR2 should have been, wide body with a built suspension. Rather just buy a Trail Boss LT and build it.
You couldn't pay me to buy a Chevy. I have worked on cars for over 30 years. And sold parts for 11 years. I worked on and sold more parts for Chevy and Dodge than any manufacturer out there. I have a 2013 F-150 platinum. Not a single issue with this truck in the 10 years it's been in my family. Chevy is and always has been nothing but problems. You are always talking about all the problems you have had with yours. But yet you're still a fan? Don't understand that
@joshtaylor1416 I don't know what you think I'm lying about. You don't even know me. How can you say I'm lying? That's the young generation for you. They open there mouth before they know what's going on
Ive watched just about of your videos about the Colorado ZR2 and the Silverado ZR2, not going to lie I’m sort of considering a 2024 Silverado ZR2 with the 3.0 liter diesel? I don’t want one with the 6.2 the 3.0 diesel works for me. I can actually get a 2024 ZR2 for around 64K within is a bit lower than what I paid for my 2022 Z71 diesel!
Need to bring your zr2 to indiana and come to badlands offroad park i recently took mine there for the sasquatch hunt they put on and it did great didn't get super heavy offloading it but it do amazing for what I did put it thru

The used car market in general is taking a big ol dump and all the high dollar vehicles are tumbling. High interest rates and inflation are the culprits. I bought a '24 Silverado ZR2 3.0L diesel for 61.4K out the door on August 31st. Sticker was 75K If you are one of these morons that pay sticker.. that's your fault for being stupid. Are they overpriced... yes So are the Raptors.. so are the RHO's that are coming out. And I will say this. I LOVE my ZR2. The 3.0L diesel is AWESOME. Perfect motor for this truck. Great power and Great mileage. 3 fuel ups so far.. 22.8, 22.8, 24.3mpg This is my 5th ZR2 and by far the BEST.
Everything you said I was saying when you bought your. It was near the price of a TRX, I am sure Mike found some TRX deals out of the 30 he owned......🤣
I’d rather watch you do a Water Temple run vlog than beat this dead horse again. In all seriousness, GM is the biggest tease when it comes to the concept vehicles. It’s unfortunate, but they do it to themselves, going half-way with their production models.
Beats ANY Ford.....dont care what you say...2000 Silverado 5.3 still runs silky smooth..194,000 miles...tow boat 80 miles to river every wknd....wont own anything else kid, only replaced fuel pump..in 24 yrs!!!!..can blame that on gas....love old Blue
I literally run across your channel every so often, and you're always bashing on gm, but yet you keep buying gm how ironic. You are a content creator. You have the money for a trx or raptor sounds like that's more your cup of tea. I own a colorado zr2 been to multiple gm off roading event (gm special been one of them) and everyone i talk to love their zr2 (silverado or colorado) some are stock some are modify. If you dont like something, stop buying it or stop pretending you're a fan when you really do not, lol
@Maxel1813 like I stated in my comment he not only click baits his videos but yet he bashes on the brand and then will try to saying something nice just cover the smack talking just like this video, like I said he talks down on gm yet he keeps buying gm vehicles make it make sense

I had a colorado Zr2 and was a great truck. The Silverado zr2 looked good but was way overpriced.
Failure because it didn't deliver as legit competitor to the Raptor or TRX
Not competing with a TRX or Raptor clown
@@ButchIsFalsethey market it as just that.
It was never supposed to be. And when I tried to buy a new TRX and the dealer wanted $115k, I bought the ZR2. Chevy failed at marketing it correctly.
@@S58985 yea thats the problem. They should went straight at them and pointed out that those trucks are ridiculous, and the ZR2 is more than capable for 99% of owners.
News flash it’s not a Trx or raptor competitor..
I remember the first zr2 silverado Comercial they were bragging about a low range transfer case hahahaha. Wow a 85 s10 blazer has low range too.
It's more of a Ford Tremor, Ram Rebel, or Tundra TRD Pro competitor. In that regard its very comparable, even with the high price unfortunately.
All Chevy needs to do is supercharge it he motor and add 37s factory. Boom. Best seller
@@TheZR2Kid fox already has those in production
@ oh wow they do! It’s really nice. See why doesn’t Chevy do that?

The colorado zr2 bison is a rock star, much better truck than the 1500 silverado.

Our t2 platform is coming soon… remember that.
Dead from the start unlike the Colorado and it’s counter parts the Silverado zr2 don’t compete with its counterparts
Just get the 2500 zr2 or the at4x its better than the 1500 build and price first.
Also the 1500 zr2 and at4 x towing and payload forget about it.
Im disappointed in all gm products... the one gm i haven't driven is a diesel... nothing but problems with my sierra and my old lady's equinox..
lmao...25 yr old Silverado and only thing replaced is a fuel pump..still runs silky smooth ...you lie dude
