@@kksanthat’s not true, the money just didn’t go to materials. It’s quite possible when you have a truck that was engineered to last the money went into the body, frame, electrical system and electronics. This truck still had better software than some luxury cars that costs even mire than this. How many Acuras, Lincolns, Mazdas, Infinitis, or Lexus products have an instrument cluster that’s reconfigurable, can display your navigation/maps, and can tow what this vehicle can tow?
It’s crazy that a $41,000 truck is called a budget truck geez. If i bought this I wouldn’t call that on a budget I’d say I’m not an idiot to spend 60 plus grand on a dang truck.
I understand, but in 2016 after inflation it’s 29k. Even if you didn’t beat the market, atleast just putting savings in a savings account would cover inflation…and compared to other vehicles today, it’s not that bad
Anybody else think just seems like…a truck?? Like yeah sure it doesn’t have luxury leather or every single feature, but it’s a truck. Old fashioned. Like a modern version of a 2000s truck, before they became all show offy and were just…fun! I like it

@@PsychicMedium4747 The Trail Boss trim doesn't have cheap materials for what the truck is intended for. However, expectations can become elevated to a point beyond reasonability and people become spoiled or fail to understand the point. Dandy features can stay in the higher trims where people buy trucks to say they own a truck but never actually do truck stuff. The real issues are related to what should objectively be considered standard like LED lights.

I totally agree. I have 2020 RAV4 hybrid.. ALL trims come standard with LED headlights and so does the corrolla which starts cheaper. It's ridiculous a 40k truck doesn't have it.
My only gripe with this truck is the halogen headlights, I don’t understand why a brand new truck in 2023 can be sold with halogens. Even a base model Corolla comes with LED headlights as standard. Also is the air dam removable?
The 3.6L is also in the mid 6sec range 0-60. They both get the same MPG roughly (averaging 20.5 with my 2017’ LT, calculated at the pump and no towing). I test drove a 23’ TrailBoss and when not in the turbo it sounds like a Chevy Cavalier. No thanks !! Great review as always
You owners of older models are always looking to discredit the newer ones once they’re redesigned for whatever personal reasons that y’all have. You were going to say “No thanks!!” regardless of what the inline 4 sounded like. Stop pretending that you actually gave this 2023 Chevy Colorado an unbiased chance at being a better truck than your current Colorado. The ppl like you wanting to rag on this and the new Canyon are full of sh!t imo 🙄
I would think durability would be preferrable when it comes to interior materials. A work truck shouldn't' have soft/easily damageable materials like leather. If you want all of that every manufacturer has a trim level that will give you what your asking for. So im not sure why anyone would expect a base level vehicle to have materials matching the higher trim levels , what would be the point in having higher trim levels if that were the case??
That’s what I said. Americans want everything to come standard in new products, boasts upscale interior materials, have the best and latest tech, and _still_ costs as much as a pack of #2 pencils. How?. That doesn’t make any sense. It doesn’t even make sense to demand better materials in an off-road focused base truck.
Cheap, hollow, rattly plastic doesn't automatically equal durability. GM has always had the worst plastic in the game, even hard touch parts on many competitors are nicer grained, less shiny, better put together, and seem to always be less "hollow". Also, I can't think of too many vehicles that don't offer a soft armrest for over 30k... Also no telescoping wheel in 2023???? Once again, a basic modern feature missing like it's a Mirage or something.
Tests a base trim level. Complains that it's base. Ugh. It is reviews like this that keep driving up prices of vehicles. There are plenty of high trim level vehicles available for the entitled. Quit trying to make every trim level loaded. Some of us would actually PREFER even LESS options than shown here and have MORE money left in our jeans.
Sir, there’s a half-ton RAM that comes with halogen headlights. You can give Chevy a break with all of the “looks very cheap” comments. You do not approach their competitors with this same energy, always wanting to beat *gm* across the head for being cheap.

"Looks cheap" and "disappointed that it's hard touch plastic"... I'm sorry, I thought I bought a truck. If you want heated seats, heated/telescoping steering wheel, "leather" seats/dash and high quality stitching, or other higher end items that have the potential to get ruined doing truck stuff, buy a car and stay on city streets or pay for a higher trim "dandy truck". The only things that are missing for what you pay for with the Trail Boss are LED lights, fog lights, a hard bed liner, and physical light switches as standard (in the event that the electronics fail). But those are nit picking items based on price of the vehicle and the expected features that should be considered standard given the current year for what the vehicle is intended for. I'd be pissed at myself if I ruined my seats and steering wheel jumping in and out of the truck after working all day. In the end, the Trail Boss is perfectly fine the way it is for what it is supposed to be (a truck) without the unnecessary bloat features that only add to the price, not true functionality.

NO ONE CARES ABOUT HARD PLASTIC DASH. In fact, on a truck it would be seen as a positive. Not once in my life have I jumped into a car and started tapping the dash to see if the plastic is soft. Sure, the elbow rests should be soft, but that's because you actually come into contact with it. And I totally agree that the interior needs more color.

It’s not a “car” it’s a pickup truck that could tow a car. Perhaps the $40k is for the capability of the *pickup truck* and not because it’s interior rivals that of Mercedes. I thought this was common sense.

Because it is the U.S. and we have our own laws and regulations both state and federal that govern motor vehicles and the operation thereof. You can find these features on certain vehicles in the U.S. and Canada, but the features are not a regulated standard for all new vehicles (yet). Plus, we aren't ruled by Brussels, we have our own clowns to worry about. But really, what real purpose do side signals offer that normal awareness and driving skills can't do? Don't hang out on the side of another vehicle and if the vehicle in the other lane is getting closer you can speed up, slow down, or honk to signal them that they are drifting and that you are there.

This trim was designed for old retired guys on a fixed income who 'still want a truck', 'don't want any of that electronic crap', can still change a lightbulb himself (but won't), can't see or hear well enough to be bothered by cheap looking plastic or rattles, and is unlikely to still be driving past the end of the powertrain warranty.
Absolutely unacceptable. Don’t buy this truck. No LED lighting, no remote start, no heated seats, no smart key access, no bed lights, no advanced safety, not even a telescoping wheel…for 42k. My compact SUV has a telescoping wheel… I get the “simple is better” thought.. but it’s not worth 42000 dollars.
You mean how many FLEET companies or people looking to do work with the truck would buy this? PLENTY. No it ain’t a Mercedes but you’re also not paying $75k.
Lol small gauges, you want bigger gauges you have to pay more. Halogen headlamps, you want LED, pay more. You want telescoping wheels, you ha to pay more. Unbelievable. Even arm rests have zero cushioning. Plastic steering wheel. Problematic 8-speed with Federal class action lawsuit against it. Stay away. Get a Tacoma.

You mean how many FLEET companies or people looking to do work with the truck would buy this? PLENTY. No it ain’t a Mercedes but you’re also not paying $75k.
Lol small gauges, you want bigger gauges you have to pay more.
Halogen headlamps, you want LED, pay more.
You want telescoping wheels, you ha to pay more. Unbelievable.
Even arm rests have zero cushioning.
Plastic steering wheel.
Problematic 8-speed with Federal class action lawsuit against it.
Stay away. Get a Tacoma.
Soo no V8😂😂and paying that much with NOOOO V8, they say trying to make it better on gas which is clearly a lie
That tarted up fart box would fall apart on a trail. Half the engine is plastic 😂.
So in conclusion I should buy a loaded out half ton from 4-10 years ago and probably still get a better truck for the same price
I'll save you the trouble of watching this video and tell you to go with a Tacoma TRD off road.
1000%
The GM apologists are out in force!
GM/Chevy should be ashamed of themselves for using so much cheap materials used/cost cutting measures. So much to the point it almost looks like a preproduction model. Pathetic.
Chevy rubbish. Once the warranty runs out you better run too. Get a Frontier Pro 4X or Tacoma TRD Off road.
It is NOT full time 4-wheel drive.
I watch your videos all the way through when it’s a car that is a good car 😂😂😂😂😂
