Andre is the Truck King! No-one even come close. Watching Sunday morning drinking my coffee. Love TFL. ❤
I’m sure everyone zoomed ahead to hear about the secret truck you ordered. Congratulations Andre! 😎🍷🎉🛻
Thank you!
Glad you mentioned Tim at pickup truck plus SUV talk he is as passionate as you are and let’s not forget the 5 ft wonder, Jill.
Yup, I called it. Time to test the “updated” 8 speed and the turbo 4 cyl. Can’t wait for future vids. Congrats 🎉
Kinda funny. I went from a zr2 Colorado with the Duramax to a 2021 f150 with the coyote a little over a year ago. One of the main drivers in that decision was cabin space. We towed our pop up from DFW to Cherokee NC and back and the back seat passengers were pretty miserable… I’ve got my wife and two boys (10 and 13)… had to have more space.
All that being said, I’m excited for that new Colorado! I think GM knocked that one out of the park!
I definitely enjoy sitting here on a saturday morning with my coffee and my dog in my lap watching TFL videos. keep it up dudes!
Roman needs a neighbor who understands that life happens before 9 AM. LED headlights are great if you are behind them. But LED headlights are a nightmare coming at you.
Especially Tesla headlights they can’t aim them if their life depended on it. I constantly get blinded by the light 🎶🎶🎶🎶
So are laser beams - absolutely horrible
Skill issue
I’d rather have to look at the line for a few seconds while a cars passing on the other side than be in a spot where I can’t see worth a crap because of dim headlights.
That’s only you and your problem
Agree with Roman 100 percent. If manufactures try pulling that crap I will not buy their product and go to the company that doesn’t do that BS.
IMO 2020 and newer fully loaded, convenience and premium packages, Nissan TITAN "XD" Pro4x for with under 30K miles and wait for it.....can be had for under $46K if yah look hard enough. I know, got mine under $45K and with low production numbers and abysmal sales, titan making less than 1% of total market shares, I'm confident this machine will be a jewel and will pay me back and more in about 10 years. Additionally, Nissan has the best warranty game in the truck business. This 5/8ths ton truck is the best truck in the segment! All around pick up. Triple threat: tow/haul, off roader, every day driver. Very undervalued at the moment.
I've been watching you guys for years (from North Texas) and Andrea helped me decided to pull the trigger on a new F-150. I custom ordered in November a F-150 SuperCab with 8' bed. I went with V8, (400HP and 410 Torqs) max tow and max payload. Payload sticker shows 2507lb and towing is 13k. I kept it simple work truck and was able to get it last week for less than MSRP which I hope shows prices will normalize. First time out I took the family on a 300+ mile trip and averaged over 21mpg with both city and rural driving. Rides great, drives great, and I think it can do anything we want. Thanks Andrea and the awesome TFL team!
16:25 Please do a video about your electric snowblower when the real snow comes in March. You could see how much sidewalk you can clear on a charge vs. gas.
Snow here in Colorado isn't the same as Midwest. Many times you can just use a broom
@@kirbykime9783 I don't know where you live, but we average 89" per year in Boulder. We got 152" in 2019-2020. I shovel mine, but my neighbor used his snowblower to clean our sidewalks. My side road has been covered with ice & slush for weeks.
I do greatly enjoy listening to the shows while I drive or early in the day on a weekend. Good times. Thanks!
Always good information on here for trucks and it’s appreciated. Thanks guys
Congrats on the new truck, Andre!
Great video as always, do what you are doing guys! Regards from Poland 🇵🇱
Thank you for watching and your feedback!
Nice! You’re going to love it. Parking is the best thing about mid sizers. Can’t wait for the videos
I bought my first truck in November 2021. I listened to Andre and Nathan's podcasts titled "best engines" to select the engine. I ended up choosing the GM 6.2 (the big boy). I bought a Silverado RST because I found a dealer that observed MSRP.
Excellent choice. Good idea avoiding the formerly bulletproof 5.3.
@@rightwingsafetysquad9872 the 6.2 and 5.3 have the same lifter problems.
Congratulations Andre, it's awesome to hear that wentzville is building your new truck, I'm in ofallon which is right next door. I'm sure they will build you an excellent truck and I hope you and your family enjoy it and I can't wait to see videos about the truck. I would like to hear how the truck performs while towing your boat😊
Great ! Very similar to how I would spec. Can not wait to see your videos !
I fully agree with Roman, Andre is the most trusted truck journalist in the world IMO. I take his opinion and outlook as more valuable than any other source.
Wall Street Journal recently reported there is now a excess supply of computer chips. We should not be seeing decontented vehicles or short supplies based on chips.
Since when is the Wall Street Journal correct?
À aaaa
There is an abundance of Computer chips or semiconductors?
Chips are all not the same. If you follow detailed analysists the last i heard while cutting edge fab proccesses have excess supply: AMD, Nvidia, and Apple are holding the bag right now for the bleeding edge. But trucks use old broken fabs for industrial chips, which were still having troubles maintaining order volume with all the military orders with the war in Ukraine. Cutting edge fabs and old industrial fabs make totally different products that cannot be swapped without millions or billions of dollars of redesigns. even though old proccesses are in demand, they won't Pay: Apple, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm prices.
Also companies pre purchase their electronics in large quantities and if there is any surplus it’s usually snatched up quickly.
Very nice Andre. I built a Trail Boss with some options and accessories in Harvest Bronze Metallic. It was about $43000.
Andre loved the yellow Nissan Titan Pro 4X so he had to get another yellow truck. Pretty cool 😎
I thought of the yellow titan too when he mentioned yellow
Congrats! Regards from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷
I agree these subscription services in vehicles will drive people like me from buying “new”. Show respect for customers!
Another creative way to screw the customers...
I agree with tfl but I think it’s sort of blown out of proportion because when you buy a car heated seats have to have the hardware hence if you want to pay per month to turn it on you pay maybe at purchase. But only thinking you’d have to pay for the use of updates that’s reasonable 😊
Haaa I did get up make coffee on a Saturday morning and watch this video!! Good job guys.
I’m leasing my current 2020 truck, and I’ll be buying out the lease at the end because of how crazy the market has gotten.
Super easy to change out the bulbs , grill comes out very simple , I bought led bulbs from sealight, got them on all my vehicles and my plow excellent bulbs
Congrats Andre! Can’t wait to see it
Welcome to the 2.7 family! I absolutely love my 2.7 1500 LT quad cab!
I lifted it and still manage 22-23mpg highway!
I bought a 17 Chevy Silverado 1500 for pulling a travel trailer. I was disappointed that I had to add an aftermarket trailer brake controller. The truck had a max tow capacity of 9300 lbs. and yet it was not even legal to pull a trailer over 3000 lbs. when I bought it. Even worse, it was the Texas Edition package with trailer tow. I let the salesman have it about how discussed by that fact. Chevy shouldn't even have Texas in the name. Love your channel. Keep the good content coming.
The back seats in the Colorados are like the seats in a compact car. Your daughter is probably going to hate it.
This is coming from a guy who is 5'6 and owns a 19 Colorado and from the videos I've seen including your own that back seat looks no different in dimensions as the previous generation.
Ok Roman and Andre your friendship seems like Roman say silly stuff and then giggles while Andre has a tiny freak out lol 😂 love it!
Love TFL. I listened on my headphones while I cut up a fallen tree. I also love to listen while driving.
Congrats. I'm looking forward to the hands on videos with the new truck, I've been looking at getting the Canyon AT4 so I know I'm gonna get some good info in the next couple months.
Congratulations! knew it was gonna be a Colorado based on the yellow clue you gave. Your daughter may be upset if she's in the back, given the next gen has even less rear leg room than the previous gen, but time will tell. Looking forward to the new truck videos! Enjoy!
Thank you for the feedback.
Wait is this true? Less legroom? 👎
Great video guys! Not sure I've been more excited about any journalist's truck reveal! The color is awesome 👍🏽
Thank you for the kind words.
Congratulations Andre! I have been one of those fans waiting to hear what you bought. I am again anxious to see videos on it. Can’t wait.
Thank you for watching.
I wouldn't have guessed a midsize. Congrats Andre!
Nice truck Andre! Can't wait to see the videos.
I made a comment on the ranger about using forscan for the trailer brake controller. Well you can also change the tire size with forscan. From what I've saw on-line, there are codes instead of just picking through a list of tires.
Great choice. I’m going to order a canyon. I’m very curious on how long it will take. Can you please let us know when you get updates as far as the delivery timeline of your truck. Thanks for doing your podcast. I love it and it passes the time when I’m at work building heavy duty, GM trucks in Flint.
Congratulations Andrei on your new truck!!! That truck looks awesome!
TFL we religiously watch your excellent podcasts and videos in Sydney Australia👍
As a current Colorado owner and I’ve also owned other mid size trucks in the past be prepared for the it’s not a real truck comments despite its hauling and towing capabilities
Little guys need big trucks. Big guys get what they want. I just don't enjoy fullsize trucks.
Let me guess, those "real" truck guys drive 80k living rooms with fake v8 exhaust noise played to make them feel macho. A REAL truck has a single cab, long bed, bench seat, crank windows, and is missing half its paint.
Great job Andry 👏, I'm considering getting one, presently I own a 2020 Trail Boss that I love 💙.
In Europe you always had to order a new car at the dealership and wait for your car. But what happened lately is crazy. I‘ve ordered my new car in October 2021 and still nobody can tell my when the car will get build or when I will get it. It’s crazy.
I love twisting one up and watching!
First off, you guys are my favorite channel by far. Also, I've never posted a commented before so this is a first. I owned a 19 classic identical to stubby except mine was a quad. Now I own a 22 bighorn crew. I completely agree with the headlights, absolutely terrible. However, I purchased orical v series light bulbs for my 19 they were little over $100. I believe Roman sated how much you have to take apart fo change the buld. I'm not sure if you guys realize. You really don't have to do that. It literally took my 5 min a buld to pop out the headlight housing and put the new bulbs in. Did the same thing with my new truck in the dealer lot when I got the new truck. The orical bulbs are fantastic. We got my wife a 22 pilot and it had the hid bright white projector lights. The bulbs i put in my rams are far better and brighter especially on the highway. Maybe not the great for oncoming traffic. But every bright bulb blinds you nowadays just have to learn too not look directly at oncoming traffic I suppose.
Again love the show guys.
Ciao.
Excited for when you get it Andre! Appreciate TFL's commitment to the consumer and really calling out the greed that is the manufacture / stealership process. Subscriptions to use any component of a vehicle is greedy.
$390 for a different color, Tesla charges $1,000’s more if you want color. Thanks GM for for not ripping people off.
Awesome news. I'm very excited for all the videos related to this. I'm a Chevrolet person, so seeing long term updates on this is very exciting for me.
Hey Guys , we find out the DEF is only 10 % urea and the remaining is water, so we did a test in Vermont , January of 2012 we're looking for It ,and was sold out so decided to pee on it and worked wery well , also we poured used fried cooking oil as a fuel , worked wey well except on the cold freezing days .
Regards and Keep it up.
Truck was a 2009 Isuzu NPR , first DEF Generation.
Great choice, I have had a 2017 from new and it’s been great!
I like Andre and he does great reviews….keep up the good work guys!
I was finally able to pick up my truck after 9mos from order date to delivery! Test of patience on a whole new level. Luckily my dealer didn’t BS me
LOL! Loved the intro. Andre, you are something else...in a GOOD way!
Congrats. i had a 2018 Colorado LT V6 until I traded it in on 2021 Gladiator V6. Looking forward to hear how the new 4-cylinder turbo performs. Hopefully you can do a real world towing comparison to the old 3.6 and 2.8 duramax.
I had a 2019 Big Horn Classic. Loved the truck and had zero issue with it. The headlights Suck!!! I took a cross country trip and the night driving was white knuckled at times. Again, no issues with the truck but I ended up trading it in on a 2022 Rebel. The headlights are amazing! Come on Ram, fix that issue with the Classic version.
This was fantastic! Enjoyed watching while preparing dinner and then all the stuff for breakfast for tomorrow morning. This was on par for sure!! Thank you both! And dude with the slide - in: Buy the dually with the 6.7 diesel.
Out in Colorado you have a lot more consideration than in the northeast. Up here in CT... we fire the snow blower up at 5AM to get cleared for work. Nobody got time for 8 am
I love it! I was excited when I saw this new Colorado revealed and now even more so. Good choice Andre!
Awesome! Congrats on the new truck. I’ll be interested on your thoughts. The current Gen Colorado has a decent back seat. The trail boss has an auto locker. You’ll want to remove the chin spoiler. 😊
I have a 2015 ram 2500. You just remove four bolts to pop the grill off, two bolts on the assembly and a tab on the back that can accessed from the wheel well via a access flap. It takes like 30 minutes. If you have a long narrow extension you can get to the one bolt behind the grill without taking it off.
Congrats on the new truck Andrea! Curious as to the payload and how that will affect your ability to take everything you want when you tow.
Excited to see the new truck
Love your channel, regarding upsizing tires and reconfiguring your speedometer. Take a tape measure, get the circumference or the old & new tires. Compute the difference as a %, that’ll be what you’ll have to compensate for. Both for speed and mileage you’re driving.
Have to say haven’t watched one video of the hummer ev. Since it’s a truck I would never buy I don’t really care to watch any videos about it. As matter fact I fast forwarded to you guys talking about the Colorado.
I hate to say it. Your family probably will not like the smaller space if they are tall. Gm has done a great job with the new Colorado and canyon. They look really nice. Pretty decent power for a mid sized vehicle. Personally, I myself wouldn’t be able to go down to mid size after having full sized trucks for 20 years straight
If you can keep track of it as I do, go out and start your small engines once every 2-3 months. I haven't built a carburetor in a long long time. I have replaced some rotted fuel line because I still run the ethanol.
Car flippers are absolutely driving up the markups for new and used cars. I know for a fact people were buying new Taycans and Mavericks for the sole purpose of reselling- that decreases the supply of new cars and hence increases the dealer markups. Good on GM for trying anything to slow down the car flippers. Eventually used car prices will go down and the flippers will go away.
There is a Ford configuration tool called Forscan. It has the ability to change your tire size a long with 1000 other f150 truck things. Changed my rear axle and gas tank size in the setting to get good mpg.
Happy for your new purchase. Looking forward to seeing it. Did you price a ZR2? I think you can configure under $50k
@ Roman I feel like you lowkey listened to some of our criticism from past podcasts, right? ;-) nah for real, it was waaay easier to listen to this podcast compared to past ones starring you, thanks a lot for this
Me wishing I could go back in time and remind Andre he needed to add cruse control to his new baby. And, also to order an extra reverse camera 😉 Love this channel. Definitely helping when it came to deciding on a replacement truck.
I went from a 2016 1500 silverado to a tacoma in 2020. My daughter was not comfortable in the back and my wife wasn't comfortable in the front. Then to the 2021 silverado. YMMV. best of luck to you in your downsizing adventure, my friend!
I'm very excited to see that yall will have a TFL Colorado! I've never been interested in the Colorado until this newest generation and now it is on my short list! I hope to see you do all of the towing tests on this truck as it's a big reason I'm leaning towards the Colorado or Canyon over the other V6 midsize trucks. I'm hoping to purchase sometime this summer or fall and am leaning towards the new Colorado or the yet to be unveiled new Ranger (Hurry up Ford!!)
I’d wait till the new taco comes out before you make a decision.
It’s not a v6 anymore it’s a 2.7l 4 cylinder turbo
How did you track miles? Odometer is off so anything using that will be off as well. It would have been easy enough to use a correction factor to get the correct mileage.
Awesome guys!
I agree on the deal breakers on the ram, but on my 2020 2500 they have an access panel in the wheel well that you open, took less than 5 minutest to replace both headlights with LED's and they are much much brighter, and I love them, also on the tailgate the dealer option for the dampened tail gate is crazy when you can purchase the DEEZEE dampner and again it takes about 10 mintues to install.
There is a Hydro Blue Single Cab with a few more options than the "Stubby" you guys bought local to me. Looks great in the color!
Great choice, Andre on the new truck. Not in market personally for a mid-size, but looks like GM got so many things right on it based on what I've seen so far. I think a lot of folks will enjoy watching the content you put out on it. I'm looking forward to it.
The biggest bummer about the Colorado Trail Boss, which I wanted as well, is it doesn't have heated seats available. Wtf
Congratulations on your
Trail Boss Colorado
There should be a setting for selecting from the stock tire sizes and other variables they should be able to set such as pinion factor. It might just take finding a dealer willing to work on it. If anything it's more of a liability to leave it incorrect. It took my Jeep dealer a couple tries to get the speedometer on my old Jeep Patriot accurate but they did.
The first dealer I went to only knew about the first setting
I was at a Ford Dealership for a routine service and they had one of these Basic work trucks 4x2 for 31k! Parked right next to a 92k Lighting was pretty funny.
Awesome! I may do a copycat build at some point. Great episode of "guys talking trucks"
I replaced my headlight bulbs with LED bulbs from Amazon - it took an hour to change both sides, not as bad as it initially appeared. What a difference - it lights up the night like a new Ram Limited does! They are bright for oncoming drivers but no worse than a new F-150 w/LEDs. I've had no cold weather trouble, although the coldest I've driven w/them is about 25 degrees F.
Those LEDs from amazon dont worl right with a halogen lamp housing. The lugbt pattern of an LED, especially a cgeap one is different. You are blinding oncoming traffic. Good LEDs like Morimoto will not blind oncoming traffic and will light up better. F150s with the stock LED lights don't blind oncoming traffic because the housing is designed for LEDs. Housings designed for a regular bulb aren't made for led lights, especially generic leds because the pattern is different. What you have is a poor lught pattern blinding oncoming traffic and giving you the false illusion of better lighting because it lights up more directly on front of you but has poor light throw for long distance.
subscription cars are something we should call 'shenanigans' on: Shenanigans! Shenanigans! Shenanigans!
I must say, the redesign looks nice. The interior of the new generation looks excellent. That engine in the truck should be a little rocket. But as someone who just switched from a mid-sized to a full-sized truck, I couldn't imagine going back. I like the color choice, though! Life is too short for boring colored cars!
I have a full sized truck and recently looked at a mid-size. I could not live with a mid size, particularly due to interior room.
Good luck with an electric snow blower. I'd practically give mine away.
I am very interested in the Colorado after driving a full-size reg cab truck for 20 years. I like the back seat but still keeping the overall truck size manageable. Interested to see what you think of it and how it performs. I would just do the work truck though 😂.
Awesome choice..great job..
I agree with you Roman on your stubby truck. No replacement for simplicity, I am so sick of all the digital B.S.. Most people don`t even know how there vehicle functions let alone all the tech that is being crammed into everything today.
That black grill looks great
Forscan mods can fix speedometer discrepancies and you can also set transmission to new tire size and it relearns getting better fuel economy.
I owned a set of TKO's once. Never again. Performance in mud and snow was inferior to other brands and tire conicity as with most BFG's caused a pull every time rotations were performed. They lasted a long time though, due to that hard rubber.
I was building almost this exact same spec last night. Looks like the 23 Colorado is set to be a great truck for the money. Given its capabilities I think it will start stealing sales from some Silverados. Congratulations Andre
Andre I did buy a Godzilla and a powerboost thanks to your amazing reviews to help with all the needs of having a truck
Smart thing to do would be to put larger tires on your truck then recalibrate your speedometer to half of your actual speed then your odometer will only show half the distance you drive.👍
I was going to order this exact truck - except in red - a few weeks ago. I called all the dealers in my local area and all were charging a market adjustment of $3000 on average. I finally called a dealer several hundred miles away and they said they'd order one for me at MSRP. I thought about it and decided I'd just wait.
I think the new Trail Boss looks like a good value considering current offerings, but I'm just sick of putting up with dealers, so I'll wait.
Congrats on your purchase! Looking forward to your reviews and seeing if this is a good truck. If it is I'll buy one in 2030 when I can find one used!
Andre, the 430tq tune is only a few hundred bucks, why didn't you get that option? I'm also looking at one, I feel like it could be good to have a small/midsize truck if I finally find a house I want to buy. Ability to transport furniture and lawn equipment and such.
