These new Colorados are wayyyyyy better then them new gen tacos! That’s why I’m buying a Colorado ! Tacos are dead I loved my 2019 but trading it in for a zr2 !
I agree man the Colorado is way better than those new gen Tacoma ! ❤️❤️❤️
Agree … the mid-size is now ruled by the ZR2.
If money grows on trees, then the Ford Ranger Raptor is a real one. 🤘🏻
Lmao
I'm building a 24 ZR2, I was very hesitant before I found your channel. Now i know I will be making the right choice.
You have a good platform ! The zr2 is a beautiful machine ! And it will take care of you ! I’m excited to see what you build !
I have a ZR2 and have babied it for 7k miles compared to what you use your truck for. I'm glad to see someone else beating the piss out of it and it taking it no problems! Your truck looks killer with those 35s and the DV8 bumpers. I'm taking my truck on its first big off road/road trip to Arizona and Utah next week and am super excited to see what it will do!
I used my daily 2022 Corolla se to pay off my Colorado Trail Boss, I also used Lyft to pay off my Corolla, my truck is still show room new, I can’t bring myself to pound on it but enjoy watching videos of what these trucks can do! Now I’m gonna start building my truck up to how I want it to look!
Have fun homie !!! That sounds like an awesome adventure! And thanks ! I love the look also ! 🤘🤘
Your a smart man paid off I wish I had mine was paid off 😂😂 I can’t wait to see your build ! 🔥
@@jimmycline4778I do like to use my ZR2 as a truck. I've so far tossed some large objects in the back. I like that it can be fun but also utilitarian for house projects. I won't be at on it hard since I want it to last.
I’ve owned my Colorado Trail Boss for about a year , I thought putting 3200 miles on it was to many! I only drive it when I want too! It would take me 10 years to put 20k miles on it ✌️
Well I’m jealous 20k makes me sad I miss the days it smelt new , now it just smells like dirt 😂😂
20K miles is crazy in such a short period of time. GM needs to hook you up with a sponsorship. 👍🏻
They should !!! At least send me to those first drive events 😭😭😭
I saw a post on one of the Colorado forums about the bed hitting the cab. The dude said he had 4 people in the truck along with camping gear and hit a big bump in the road. Had the same kind of mark (drivers side) and actually broke out a section of the back window on the drivers side of the slider.
I found it hard to believe the truck flexed that hard then actually went back to being straight, but your post kind of confirms it.
Yeah dude I dented my cab 😭 but frame is good !!
Great review from someone who actually uses their truck to the max of it's capabilities. I appreciate that. You really help with making a decision on buying my next truck!
Sick dude you’ll love these new gen colorado\canyons I love mine ! And thank
You! 🙏
I’m at almost 32k miles lol love my truck. No issues except for window switches. Dealer took care of those. Love your vids bro!
That’s good to hear! Hell yeah man I appreciate you guys watching 🫶
Agree. I’ve put 10k miles in my Trail Boss. Love it and I’ve had no problems but I’m seriously thinking about trading it in for a ZR2 for added capability and a couple interior features. Anyways, I’ll be at Overland Expo. See you there, bro!
Sometimes I wished I traded in mine for the zr2 but my shit is all scratched and cut up now theres no way I’d get a good deal lol
I'm living vicariously through you. Also, have a 23 Z71. Just decided to send it and throw a lift and new/wheels and tires on it. Probably do it next weekend once everything is here but I don't plan on beating the shit out of it like you. Mostly, just for aesthetic purposes. Love the truck but it looks a little wimpy right now lol. Couldn't live with myself spending all that money just to break it so I'll just watch your videos instead.
Agree with almost everything you said here. Glad I'm not crazy for thinking cloth seats are just more comfortable than leather. Maybe back in the day when they had that plush type of seats but cloth seats today feel more premium than leather imo.
I appreciate comments like this man thank you!! 🙏 I always wanted leather untill I actually got it 😂😂😂😭😭 easy clean up tho lol
Great review! I will say I’ve seen you driving around Gilbert/Queen Creek area and the truck looks just as good in person as it does on here! 👍🏼
Hahah thanks dawg gimme a honk next time ! 😂 up close and person the paint is trashed but from afar look good ! 🔥🔥
My God! Great review! Thanks! 🔥
Hahah thanks brother !! 🫶 I wish I could go more in-depth befor the sun went down ! But I covered more of my gripes 👍
Gilbert resident with a 23 Denali! Super stoked about overland expo. I’ll be there on the 18th. See you there 🤙
Yes sir !!! Come say hi I’ll be at the dv8 booth !! 🤘
Bad Ass truck my friend!! Awesome.
Thanks homie !! 🫶
I put 20k a year on my JT. At 80K now still going, It seems dirt every weekend, overland with it all time.I was thinking switching to Colorado ZR2
The zr2 is a rad machine !!! I would say HELL YEAH but I’m a little biased lol the zr2 is awesome!
Did you end up swamping the full suspension out or did you just put lift spacers in the muiltimatic coils? Any details on your lift would be dope - lifting mine but I really don't want to swamp the nice factory multimatic suspension system - lmk!
I have the shitty oem suspension for the z71 lol no one has coilover kits yet 😭😭 hopefully soon ! I have a 2 inch puck lift that’s it :(
Love the tires and wheels. How much did it cost to get them out the door?
Thanks dawg !! 🤘🤘 so I have a wheel and tire sponsor so I’m not exactly sure !
Two questions. 1, how are you mounting ram mount to the vent for your lighting control? 2, any frame reinforcement options out there to prevent what happened to you?
Badlandsindustries.com sell the ram mount for the vent ! And no reinforcements yet in the market:((
Hey brotha quick question… how tall are you and how tall does the truck sit on 35s and if I’m not mistaken I believe you have a 2 inch lift right??
I was planning on doing a lift and 35s but I love your set up and I was curious about the actual height of it??
I wanted to do a 4 or 6 inch lift! Can you give me your thoughts on that and if you would ever go that high on a Colorado? Thanks again for your feedback and consistency 🤘🏽
I’m 6 foot 2 inches and yes 2 inch lift and 35s puts me at about 14 inches of ground clearance just the perfect amount, if you do 4-6 you will lose a lot of ground clearance with the cross members drop and your ride quality will be shit 💩 max lift would be 3 inches out of a coil over not a lift kit ! And thank you for watching I appreciate you , I make these videos for yall 🫶🫶🤘🤘
@@Downtimelost bro I swear you’re the one of chillest and responsive and down to earth people on TH-cam I’ve encountered!! Thanks for always replying and giving me and all of us (Subscribers) your time and dedication!!!
…thanks for the advice!! The only reason why I ask is because I’m going from a Lifted TRX on 38s and a 7 inch lift and I’ve always loved the lifted route except it was way to tall that I couldn’t get into any parking garages out here in Vegas!! So when I stumbled upon your Channel I was automatically hooked dude!!
So that’s why I want to get the Colorado and still have some height but not too tall!! Mind you I am on the shorter side lmao I’m only 5’8
That’s why I wanted to see what your opinion was!!🤙🏽
@@Downtimelost sorry last question when you mean a 3 in lift from the coil over what does that mean? Sorry I’m too informed on the lingo … but it simplest terms , which brand would you recommend for the lift/coil over in the 3 or 4 inch lift That you were saying ? For best ride quality and to still give it that nice tall lift look ?
How did you get the bed to make that dent?!? That’s impressive 😂😂
No idea I think we hit the ass end no much 😂
How is acceleration with the bigger tires?
Still bad ass ! She rips !! 🤘 I can barely tell with These big tires
What are the wheel/tire specs? Width and offset etc?
I have a full in-depth video on my channel wheels tire size only difference is these are wild Peak MT 12 1/2 wide!
Hey hey Captain Curt …… what kinda drone was that chasing ya
Idk some expensive crazy 12k drone my homies has I’ll have some clips on my TH-cam soon ! 🤘
What about that time the breaking went out when you were up on the Rim ?!?!?!
It’s made us home ! 😂
Hell ya buddy !!
❤️❤️❤️
You got a z71 & complain about the suspension & the seats?
lol I know 😂 the plan was to build it out long travel and all over time !
Let’s see a burnout
I did one on dirt ! Idk how
These big meaty tires gonna spin on asphalt 😂
Nice looking truck. Will it make it to 40K review?? lol jk
Hopefully 😂 I’m sure it will I’ll do a 30k review when I there !
@@Downtimelost lol cool man. nice videos.
So i saw these bad boys and decided to get one. Within 500 miles something in the engine popped and had some liquid spilling *to this day idk what had happened as i was never told about it* so my dealership gave me another new one. Right away i noticed problems with it *stutter breaking, clicking in the front left tire and other small issues* woke up the next day to take it to the dealership and it was stuck in park. Could not move from park at all, got it towed and the dealership had found multiple other issues that was installed incorrectly causing my issues. Got everything resolved and a few miles down the road what do you know, it was stuck in park AGAIN! Currently waiting for her to get out the shop and all of this has been under a year. I just wanna do cool truck stuff man🫠
Seeing your vids inspired my vision on how i want the truck to look 🧡
Thanks man that means a lot 🫶 was it the new gen or the older gen , I haven’t heard of anything like that happening before:/
2023 colorado z71 sadly, my dealer ship told me i got a bad batch apparently :,)
New gen*
