My brother has a raptor. It’s been in the shop twice in the last four months. A couple times he had to wait two weeks for the parts to come in Ford is drowning and recalls and building garbage these days. Go ahead and buy one suckers.
@@Steven91992 I own a Ranger Raptor it has been flawless and no issues at all and it has not one rattle in the truck it is so solid. I cannot say that about my friends ZR2 its a rattle trap creaks over rough stuff.
I owned a 2019 Colorado ZR2 V6 it was a great truck, but in 23/24 when Chevy, Toyota, and Ford started coming out with the new updated mid-size 4x4 trucks I started looking. Narrowed it down to a new 2024 Colorado ZR2 or a new 2024 Ranger Raptor, the new Tacoma's did nothing for me. The first thing I did was call my auto/truck insurance provider to get a quote on how much more my truck ins would go up a year (note: I hate insurance Companys). Was kind of surprised to find out that both trucks 24 Colorado ZR2 and 24 Ranger Raptor would raise my truck ins bill $600 dollars more a year. This struck me as strange being as the Colorado ZR2 was less money to buy then the RR and it had almost 100 less horsepower. I know that $600 dollars more a year is not that big of a deal but still strange. Next, I went and test drove a new 24 Colorado ZR2 it definitely felt a little bit quicker and faster than my 2019 Colorado ZR2 V6 but nothing earth shattering that's for sure. Also to be honest I liked the black leather interior with the ZR2 logo stitched into the front seat headrests way better on my 2019 ZR2 than the all light grey interior with light yellow stitching on the 24 ZR2. So, after the test drive, I decided to sit down with the Chevy dealership salesman to talk price. Immediately they start their little game, and he tells me that they are going to charge me 3k more for BS dealership fees and special protective coating on the exterior paint and interior seats, and that the 3k fee is not negotiable at their dealership. Also, I had already showed the salesman a paper copy that I got from Carmax saying that they would give me 35k to buy my 2019 ZR2 from me, and initially the Chevy salesman said I think we can match that. Next more dealership games after the salesman talks to the guy who runs their used car department and also the dealership sales manager he comes back and tells me unfortunately we can only give you 30k for your ZR2 because we need to put new tires and new brakes on it, (note: my ZR2 was in mint condition with only 14k miles on it), WTF???. Then I got up and said let me think about this for a couple days and I will get back to you and I walked out. A couple days later I went, and test drove a new 24 Ranger Raptor. During the RR test drive getting on to the freeway (real long straight on ramp with no traffic) I asked the salesman (totally a cool guy) sitting in the passenger seat do you mind if I lay into the accelerator pedal and let it run out for several seconds he said go ahead. Honestly right after I floored it and those twin turbos kicked in on that 405hp V6 my eyes got as big as silver dollars and an ear-to-ear smile on my face, and I told the salesman Holy **** this thing is quick and fast for a gas burning mid-size 4x4 truck. I knew right then I was buying it that day. I have owned my RR for almost 6 months now no regrets, Awesome Truck, so much fun to drive, love it. Really all the new mid-size 4x4 trucks are good trucks and they all have their Pros and Cons, you just have to go for the one that you like best, and it works best for your needs.✌
That's a pretty decent value once you factor in all the offroad goodies (twin locking diffs, suspension upgrade, tires/lift, side rail protection etc). My only gripe is it's too bad it's a turbo 4 engine. Yes it'll last through the warranty period probably, but not long term with repeated offroad abuse over the decades. A small v8 would be nice but we know due to regs that won't happen. I guess you can't have it all!
Until GM addresses its performance deficiency, I still prefer the Ranger Raptor with ProCal, 455 HP / 536 lb-ft. I think a special halo mid-sized off-roader monster should include a special engine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@ Yes, it is “only” a tuner but also comes with a Ford Factory Warranty. 455 HP is impressive for a mid-size off-roader. How much HP does the ZR2 Bison have?
I test drove this. It's nice looking but it's a 4 banger. It's as if they designed and built the whole truck and said oh shoot. What do you want to do with the engine? You don't notice as much topped out on the highway but around town and from a red light it's a 4 banger all the way.
Chevy built this four-cylinder turbo using the specs of a diesel. It has a forged bottom and it has been tested relentlessly. It’s been on the Silverado for six years without any problems. I had the same phobia but times have changed.
Yeah, that was bullshit. They marked that truck up so much my 24 that I just purchased two months ago came out to 56 and it was the bare bone Zr2 which I didn’t even know there was a bear model version they should’ve came standard with BSM standard safety sensors 360 cameras. This is all the equipment that mine was missing no sunroof. Not to mention that my lane assist is nonexistent does not function which I have a service appointment for a month from now.
I've got the 2022 ZR2 with the gas v6... how does that V4 compare? I feel like I got the good colorado right now and trading it for the 25 would be a mistake.
I owned a 2019 Colorado ZR2 V6 it was a great truck loved it. The only issue I had with it was with the transmission driving up steep uphill 2 lane asphalt roads with lots of sharp turns at real low speeds 5 to 30mph. The transmission would do all kinds of weird herky jerky stuff. It was like it couldn't figure out what gear it needed to be in it was strange, other than that awesome truck. I test drove a new 2024 Colorado ZR2, then test drove a new 2024 Ranger Raptor, bought the RR right after the test drive. Performance wise there was no comparison the RR with its 405hp twin turbo V6 is a Rocketship Beast, compared to the Colorado ZR2's 4cyl single turbo. The new Colorado ZR2 isn't even in the same stratosphere as the Ranger Raptor in top end high performance = accelerator pedal floored.✌
the 4cyl is actually significantly better compared to the previous v6. I would not have any doubts about the powertrain. The "major" issue is the reliability - these trucks are riddled with software problems which have been a nightmare. If you look at the facebook owner groups or the forums you'll see therses a significant amount of owners with issues. Personally I would wait out a few more years for the bugs to get fixed. I made the mistake of purchasing a 2024 at the start of this year and I already sold the vehicle due to the headaches. - roof denting in a car wash cause apparently there is no support in the roof and the pressure from the dryer legit dents the roof.(there was a recall / fix it does NOT work) - turn off the truck and... its still on! accessories stay running 10-15 minutes after the vehicle is turned off due to a software issue. This was "fixed" and then happened again to owners. Many many people had the battery literally die just due to this issue (happened to me twice). Chevys response was "Just disconnect the battery" - really? every time you get out of the truck lol -reverse camera would stop working randomly -the transmission. Oh my lord 1st to 2nd was ROUGH when it was cold. Apparently this is "normal" but long term i guarantee people are going to have issues. GMC canyons have even MORE issues (headlight flickering caused a stop sale) plus similar issues I mentioned above. Granted all "new trucks" have a fair share of issues, if you are seriously interested keep it under warranty and sell it before its up.

Also, the stock B&O sound system in the RR after you go into settings and turn on the Surround Sound option then kick up bass and treble levels is way better sound then the Bose sound system in the Colorado ZR2.

Not sure about the motors but there is a USA national class action lawsuit against GM right now for the transmissions in the Colorado and Canyon mid-size trucks.

What thieves haha Way to go gm Keep producing junk!!! Ben, give a honest review when you do these reviews
I only owned one car with a turbo. It had over a hundred thousand miles on it when I traded it. No issues with regular maintenance. I can think of 5 or 6 failures off the top of my head between myself and family with naturally aspirated engines. There are bad apples on every tree. Also. You called out GM specifically. Only midsize not pushing the 4-cylinder turbo is Nissan.

That would get stuck so quick...
The power.
You hit the gas pedal with the rpm,s up over 3,000 rpm,s and it's not going anywhere. You barely got to 18mph.
Everything is done thru the small infotainment like automatic headlights
Genuine junk motors
What were they thinking, besides ripping people off at over $50,000.
What thieves haha
Way to go gm
Keep producing junk!!!
Ben, give a honest review when you do these reviews
I only owned one car with a turbo. It had over a hundred thousand miles on it when I traded it. No issues with regular maintenance. I can think of 5 or 6 failures off the top of my head between myself and family with naturally aspirated engines. There are bad apples on every tree.
Also. You called out GM specifically. Only midsize not pushing the 4-cylinder turbo is Nissan.
Thats a 2025? I was told you cant order them yet. What gives?
Please Please slow your speaking down a knotch, hard to understand 🙏
This is why the Tacoma will always be the best 😂😂😂
Ben you really have to stop making videos on the same kind of vehicle over and over, it gets less interesting each time.
Don't watch?
Don’t watch then. It’s actually just that simple.
Don’t watch Kamala voter
Another mid size 4 door truck with a useless back seat other than for small kids, waste of money.
