- 2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 ZR2 focusing on snowy conditions drive modes. 3.0 Duramax. What are the best times to engage and how to use AUTO 4WD, 4 High, or 4 Low. The insights I share are based on my personal experiences, and they're supported by details from the vehicle's owner's manual.

I love this truck great buy those people saying that this is an overpriced Trailboss cant afford a ZR2
🤣
Pretty much is without the suspension lol
@@joshtaylor1416 and without the selectable rear AND front lockers. Oh, and a different bumpers, the front of which has cut outs to allow a better approach angle. The suspension is custom designed for the ZR2 and the shock design is taken from F1 shock technology btw, so it’s not just a minor upgrade.
This was a fantastic video with oh so much detail about 4x4 etc. Thank you for sharing. No one has explained it better.
Just bought a Sterling Metallic Silverado 1500 ZR2 a couple of weeks ago. This has been my favorite vehicle to drive in years. Great looking great gas mileage and great ride.
I traded in a 2021 F-150 platinum when I purchased the ZR2 and could not be happier with my decision.
That’s awesome! I thought about an F-150, but it just wasn’t as complete of a package as the ZR2
Great informative video!
Thank you!
i agree this zr2 is great!
Great video. Just bought that exact truck, color and all. I live in Fort Lauderdale and had to make a deal with a dealership in VA to get that truck. Going to pick it up next week. Can't wait. Thanks for the pointers on all the options. Don't get much practice in the snow down here.
I can’t imagine you do, but snow and sand can act similar at times. I’m stoked for you that you’re getting a great truck! I’m sure you’ll enjoy it.
Love, love 4wd auto. Such an elite/nice option, if the vehicle has it. My 1999 GMC had it, but my 2012 Cummins does not. :( Great vid. though!
Thank you!
I have enjoyed my At4 6.2 for 3 years and ready for a change. I really like the look of the ZR2. Don’t pull anything or do off road . One shouldn’t worry about what others think, but, I am 76 and don’t want to be perceived as too over the top.

I don’t feel like the ZR2 is over the top by any means. It’s not like the Raptors or TRX trucks with the significantly wider stance and overall setup.
Nice truck boss
Thank you!
Sic drifts with the yota
We were having a lot of fun filming and they joined in which was really cool
My 3.0 didn’t like to start in 15* temp. Smelled like diesel inside the cabin sometimes.
I’ve never had that issue, even when starting at 0 degrees. I’ve also never smelled fuel inside the cab. I can smell when it’s doing regen though.
@@MOHAWKAUTOon my mine they found a loose vban clamp going to somewhere in the exhaust system that’s what was giving me emission tdc.
What tint did you get on side and for front windshield?
None on the front, and roughly 15% on the sides. I used Xpel XR-Plus ceramic tint.
@@MOHAWKAUTO dgotcha. Looks like you put a tiny strip across top of front windshield for glare?
@@TT_Romans8 you’re right, that’s 5%, works great for seeing traffic lights when the sun is normally blinding you.
@@MOHAWKAUTO cool! I had a Bison Colorado diesel and loved it. Ever since they brought out the Silverado ZR2 I’ve been looking and when they brought the diesel to it that made me want one for sure. Great review!
@@TT_Romans8 thank you!
I have a 22 sand dude zr2, mine doesn’t have sport mode wtf. Gonna throw it away now smh 🤦♂️
That’s rough man
I have a 2021 Jeep Gladiator. I get 13mpg
Yikes! I would have thought you’d get betting mileage. Did you lift it or put on different tires at all?
You need the new ZR2 2500 bc you’re like 10 ft tall
Lol, maybe I’ll check one out and see how they compare.
No Jeeps? Lame! Haha jk. What do you think of the baby max?
Glad to see you back! I love it and think it’s one of, if not the best, engines available for trucks and SUVs. There may be some Jeep content we’re cooking up
@@MOHAWKAUTO good to hear! Good to see new videos.
@@jeeprubi759 thank you!
since it is a zr2, does it not have a G80 auto lock rear diff? Do the front and rear diff only lock when you lock them electronically via the dash buttons? Or does Auto, 4Hi or 4Lo auto lock the rear, front or both rear and front diff's when you choose those options?
They still lock automatically from what I know and can tell from driving it. The ZR2 just adds a locking front and the ability to lock the front and rear full time instead of having to wait for slip to occur.
If you look in the spec sheets for the zr2 it says limited slip/elocker axle.. so I'm assuming when out of locking the diffs it's limited slip your feeling.. which to me is the best of both worlds. Great fun with traction control completely off and the ability to completely lock when slow in the bush
you dont have the slightest clue how winter tires work.
my dad has 3 peak rated wranglers on his f150 and they're shit in the snow, just like any AT or mud.
I mean, you’re wrong about my knowledge, but that’s okay. Not all 3PMSF are created equal and they are not the same as M+S. Please don’t get the idea that I was suggesting that 3PMSF means you can do some snow running off-road type things. They’re meant for severe winter driving. Like all tires, there’s give and take and what’s good for mud may be terrible on icy conditions and vice versa. Maybe I should do a full video on just tires. Would that help?
@@MOHAWKAUTOamongst other things, you said:
1. more surface area is good for winter tires
2. deep threads allow you to dig through to the snow to get to the compacted snow or even the asphalt below
3,. the point of sipping is creating more surface area and clearing out the snow
all these statements are plain wrong.
1. theres a reason why people always recommend to get narrower with your winter tires. just go look at the size of WRC rally snow tires. its because snow on snow friction is better than rubber on snow friction and it responds better to pressure than surface area. since having a smaller surface area increases the pressure, that's what you want. we're not trying to float over 6 feet of fresh snow here.
2. I know you can read that BS everywhere online but its laughable. this idea of digging through snow to get at whats below is just not a thing. when you roll on fresh snow it just gets squashed into compacted snow and that compacted snow doesnt just magically disappear.
3. the point of sipping is actually capturing snow, not clearing it, so you can get that snow on snow friction going. just look at real winter tires that have been through some wet, deep snow... they look like snowballs. sipping also create a bunch of little edges that help with ice.
