- TRAILBOSS vs. TRAILBOSS!!
Today I show you what makes the 2021 Chevrolet Silverado TrailBoss Custom different Thant the 2021 Chevrolet Silverado TrailBoss 2LT!
I have the custom trail boss with the 6.2 engine and a lot of the features you said weren’t available on the custom my truck has
1. I have the button to turn off the start stop
2. I have the radio controls on the steering wheel along with the color driver info screen
3. My rear seat has the storage compartments in the back of seat
My only gripe with my lt trail boss is not having the keyless entry on all 4 doors and no power passenger seat.I mean I spent 54,000 on a new truck I feel they should be standard on the higher model. Other than that I love it!
I agree with you on this one... No idea why they took the keyless entry away from the rear doors 🤦🏼♂️
@@GeneralMotorsJeff do they sell blackout Silverado and LT badges? Would love to put them on my red trail boss as everything else is red and black except for them lol
I have all 4 door keyless
@@Dieselpower994 yes
And no parking sensors.
Best comparison video I have seen yet. No fluff.
Totally appreciate that Landon! Thanks for watching
Unless it's changed for 2021, the 6.2 comes with the 2 speed transfer case when equipped with the Z71 package, just like the other engines.
Was just a mistake in how i was trying to explain it.. you are 100% correct.. BOTH Trailboss’ come standard with the 2-speed transfer case. Any other Silverado you need Z71 or, as you said, the 6.2L .. Surprised someone caught my mistake so soon haha
It is an option on the Custom to get the rear seat arm rest, its called the cloth rear seat with storage package.
I like your compare videos. Few people do these kinda videos.
Thanks so much!
For 2021 you can now have the radio controls on the steering wheel of the Custom (Option). Also, it was interesting to see the Custom has a flat back seat floor, opposed to the LT w/the storage. I would almost prefer to have the flat floor as an option on the LT, as not everyone wants that storage area..
Thanks Chris!
Can audio controls be done on the 2020 custom trailboss ?
@@kennethdickerson7874 Only if it's spec'd with the $450 tech pkg.
2LT with the 6.2 all the way. Thanks for the video.
Put the grill from the custom on the 2LT and call it a day.
You read my mind
absolutely hate the LT front grill. too busy and looks like a Korean designed it.
@@bmx7596
I agree
Absolutely 2LT Trail Boss awesome truck
Great education and I learned so much. Both tracks are winners. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much John!
That 2LT looks so nice i might just buy one this year!
I’ll take a double cab Custom with the 6.2 over the LT all day
Gotta love that 6.2L!
2022 Custom Trail Boss I like the Front End better and the option for the 6th passenger just in case the oldest two kids come back to the nest. Need 6 for 4 kids and wife although Fingers crossed 3rd one a couple of years from hitting the bricks :) Only one left. That and 15k on savings total prices and 160ish per month on payments. I'm getting a refresh model with the blue like the ZR2 so I can pretend I'm in the high end truck other than the new 13 inch console. Which is nice but seeing I haven't seen one in person I really don't know what I'm missing and hopefully by time new vehicle time comes around in 4 or 5 years It'll be standard in the custom.
I don't think the turn signals in the front are LED.
100% Correct... One of the reasons I went with the AT4
I just swapped the bulbs for LED. No hyperflash, $15.
The custom is available with rear seat storage back and fold down armrest.
I like the longer bed on the Custom. The longer box would be good if you had a tool box back there.
6’6” box crew cabs have become more popular recently for sure
I have the 2LT. Absolutely love it!
Awesome choice! What colour?
@@GeneralMotorsJeff I have the satin steel trail boss
General Motors Jeff quick update on the 2LT Trail Boss. Chevy now offers Maps+ after an update (USA), I'm not sure about it's availability in Canada.
I’ll have to check that out!! Thank you!
I confirmed that with the LT you can in facet get a bench seat. Not sure if it's cloth specific, but I just ordered mine with one.
1 lt you can get a bench. This is a 2 lt.
@@benredmond8271 interesting, there's no distinction made on their site for that nomenclature
I thought the turn signals even on the led headlights were still halogen. Only when you get the high intensity led headlights you get led turn signals. Correct me of I’m wrong please.
The news ones have the all digital dash ! 🔥
I have a GMC Sierra and would choose the GMC for the 1 speed transmission. The 8 speed had too many issues. If I could get a Chevy with the 10 speed tranny, I’d go with the Chevy.
I’d get the LT with tilt and telescope wheel,
Nice choice
Thanks for explaining all that . Can you put a snowplow on these trucks it's a deal maker for me
I don't know for sure but I've been playing on the chevy website on building a truck. Trail bosses don't have the snow plow prep packages. But the base trims do.
No sir.... I mean, realistically you can put a plow on anything, but nothing from GM and it would void the warranty
Is it true that the custom has an ignition key and the LT is pushbutton start?
That’s correct!
The LT looks sharp but from my experience less is sometimes more. The Custom has everything you could possibly need. If you're more worried about fancy lights, sound systems and interior chrome trim then maybe you shouldn't be driving a truck. Those are nice things to have but they don't effect how the truck performs. One more thing to keep in mind is that during the microchip shortage with these AFM/DFM systems, GM decided to go ahead and release the 2021 Custom Trail Boss 5.3L V8 manufactured after March without that AFM/DFM software because it's a lower trim model. I personally would prefer not to have the AFM/DFM . If I had to choose between having a Bose Stereo System, fancy lights, bowtie grill, 10 speed transmission etc.... or have a truck without the AFM/DFM, I would not hesitate and pick the truck without AFM/DFM.
LT Trail Boss is very nice and the extra options aren't necessarily convenient but more so excessive. Both are very nice trucks. I had the pleasure of test driving both. The 10 speed on the LT Trail Boss was my favorite function. Very smooth. I had to keep checking the speedometer because it's easy to speed in vehicle when you can't feel it shifting up or down.
The 5.3L and 6 speed in the Custom pair very nicely. Not clunky at all. I like to feel a little of that shifting but retain a smooth shift, so the 6 speed works best for me.
I bought the 2021 Custom with only 26k miles, even though it was a little more expensive than the 2020 LT which had 30k more miles. I don't regret my purchase. The LT's 10 speed was by far the best attribute IMHO but as I said before.... Less is sometimes more. Less things to go wrong and cheaper to fix.
Can’t you get the 2in lift as an option for 1300 on other trims
You can purchase the TrailBoss suspension kit.. I don’t know American price, but in Canada it’s approx $2,500 installed
the custom's front end looks way better. can you get that in the lt ?
Which Chevy 1500 4WD trucks have the Eaton's MLocker (G80) mechanical locking differential? Do both of these trucks? Do all of the Chevy 4WD 1500s have that auto locker?
The LT Trail Boss does NOT have front LED turn signals
1 cab black custom chevy 🤤
What are those flashing Led lights on the LT in the beginning??
It’s just what the led lights do on camera for some reason
Hi, I know front is open diff, but does any traction control helps to attack like staircases in some forest roads?
Is there a difference between the LT and 2LT?
They just call it the 2LT TrailBoss because the LT is not a TrailBoss .. There is just a trim
Level called the Silverado LT
What was the price as tested
Why is it taking 3 to 4 weeks for delivery of my 2021 5.3L Custom Trail Boss in Cherry Tintcoat with mulit function tailgate and convenience1 and safety package...its killin me! 😫
3-4 weeks? That’s nothing!! It took 2 1/2 months for my Tahoe to just show up today. 🤷🏼♂️ lol
@@GeneralMotorsJeff
😳
Yep it took 2 months for my 02 Z71 to be built and sent back then also.
I waited 6 months and my LT still hasnt been built. Screw it
@@fletch4813
I hear they are really behind. Hope you get it soon. I did get mine the first week of june. 😄
What no tilt or telescope steering wheel .?
They both have tilt, only the TrailBoss 2LT has the telescopic
Turn signals are LED??
Like GM a lot now corvette Silverado great products
Bring back the SWB 6.2 with a SUPERCHARGER....
Does the custom have the option of the LED lights instead of the halogens?
You can install LED lights easily but the halogens are the brightest halogens I've ever seen I feel no need to have leds on mine
Can you get a WINTER package with custom boss?
What do you mean by “winter package” Ernie?
Well you just answered my question on that ,guess it’s the Lt model🤔
Lol 😝
@@GeneralMotorsJeff winter package means heated,seats,steering wheel,remote start,engine block heater,and maybe heated side mirrors. That’s what I mean ,and any other manufacturers will have a winter package.plus some of them are starting to add winter tires and rims as an option also.
Chevy doesn’t have a package like that.. HOWEVER, the 2LT TrailBoss comes standard with heated seats, heated steering wheel, remote start and heated mirrors. Engine block heater is an added/orderable option.
So in short the 2LT has everything you don’t need.
Lol.. I suppose
I just can't justify the cost of new trucks
Am I the only one that prefers the cleaner look of the custom? Just feel there is to much going on with the lts front end
Who even gets a double cab anyways.
Some people buy them... 🤷🏼♂️ lol
People who haul stuff in the bed more than people in the back seat. I'd rather have the extra length in the bed vs the rear cab as I'm driving alone in the truck 99% of the time. I also think the double cab has a more balanced look than the crew cab. But like everything else in this world, it's personal preference.
@@bobbyfanman1734 I know. That’s why I have a Crew Cab Standard Bed. I carry a lot of passengers and I go fishing a lot. So it works for me.
@@BabyMamaMaker I just picked up my new Custom Trail Boss in a Crew Cab, couldn't find what I wanted in a double cab. That back seat area is HUGE! I can't believe how much stuff I can put back there. I'm actually glad now that I have the Crew Cab even though I'm still in the truck 95% of the time by myself, but at least now when I have adult size passengers they aren't cramped back there. I'm also finding that a lot of the stuff I had in the bed before is perfectly fine in the back seat area, actually a little more secured back there vs. under the soft tonneau cover. I'm always afraid of someone slitting open my tonneau cover, when now I can leave the tonneau cover rolled back a good part of the time so folks can see there is nothing of value back there.
@@bobbyfanman1734 yep, that’s why I love the crew cab. It’s huge and I’m hardly ever alone in the truck. I got two girls who are 7 & 8 and when I had my Canyon crew cab, they were kicking my back seat. But with the silverado crew cab, they’re comfy.
my custom is way more decked out than that one.
That cheap ass console. With no storage. Good god what a joke!
It does have storage now...As of 2021
The custom= Being cheap.🤭
Not necessarily ... some people just don’t want/car for the extra bells/whistles
Some people also just prefer the mean look of the custom grill over the LT grill. The custom grill straight F***S, bruh.
6.2 OPTION ON THE CUSTOM AND A 5.3 ON THE LT. 420 HORSES ON THE CUSTOM
@@GeneralMotorsJeff that's me! I don't want all that stupid tech and the push to start is a giant NO!! Can't stand it!
@@dned23 That's why I bought a custom. I don't want push button start
They already look so dated.
I disagree
The custom looks like shit from the front end, both colours are terrible.
Why? Because it doesn't have a bowtie?
Headlights aren't slim enough for you?
Chevy has the dumbest labels on trucks
Ok….. lol
