    Great job!
    80 % of the population can't afford a $70,000 truck.
    But I like that you compared the zr2 to the Toyota and not a trx or raptor.
    I don't think chevy had it in mind to compete directly with the raptor or trx.
    But they did try to make it a little more affordable for the little people.
    In az it's hard to find a new raptor or trx under 90,000.

    If Toyota changes the front and rear bumper and include recovery points, I would be in the market for the Tundra but I don't see that happening. It still suprises me how they would create such a good truck without base level truck features on a $70k rig.

    • @brandonlo5162

      I agree with the first part of what you said, but not the second part. The ZR2 IS a better off roader because of the approach/departure angles, front locker, and tow hooks. However the TRD pro ran all of the trails in this video every bit as well as the ZR2 which shows it is definitely NOT just for show, it’s just not quite on par with the Zed. However I believe the Tundra would still do 98% plus what most people would ever dream of attempting.

      Since when has a GM 1/2 ton had a small aftermarket? Even if it doesn't have the same kind of aftermarket as a GEN3/GEN4 LSx the GEN5 LTx still has a decent size aftermarket, and likely one bigger than the new Toyota V6 TT engine will have. It even runs the same transmission as Mustang/Camaro/F150 which helps its aftermarket. The biggest deterrent to the Chevy's aftermarket is GM locking up their tuning abilities so tightly.
      With that said I'm sure the GEN3 Tundra will have a large enough aftermarket to be able to mod it however you want to.

I'm sure age has to do something with it too but on the other hand, my 2012 Toyota sequoia with an automatic transfer case is the same way lol. It'll blink and blink and sometimes it just takes some TLC to get it to go into 4wd. My dads ram TRX goes into 4wd instantly lol.

    • @MrChadx1

      When going into 4hi, you just need to be moving so things can engage. Sitting still, like Andre did on his 4hi shift, was his issue. My 2013 clicks into and out of 4hi perfectly as have all my Toyotas. 4lo you do when stopped and in neutral, of course, and same thing; right in and out, but many go from 2 wheel drive straight into 4lo. You want to be in 4hi before stopping and shifting into neural and initiation 4lo. I am also in 4hi and 4lo almost every weekend (driving in the mountains) which is good for the actuators. Another tip for 4x4 owners; shift into 4 hi and 4lo at least once a month even if for a short, straight parking lot drive of 50 feet. People that only shift their pickups into 4x4 once or twice a year a way more likely to have issues long term because the actuators not being used can stick.

Anyways, in the end, it comes down to personal preference. For me, the only reason to get a ZR2 is front rocker. That totally makes it superior to all trucks.
