    I saw one in Harvest Bronze Metallic and fell in love with the color. It would look damn good on a hunting rig.

    Great video. I love the real world videos y'all have been doing lately. I had a 2016 Colorado that was perfect when I was single as a weekend getaway, camping, hunting and fishing vehicle. The backseat and small armrest became an issue after marriage and family. Great truck. Miss it sometimes but love our 22 F150.

    I wanted the TB just but found that spending a bit more and getting the Canyon Elevation was worth it. Better options and the front ground clearance with optional skid plates was near the ZR2 Colorado.

    • @harolddenton6031
      @harolddenton6031 4 месяца назад

      The elevation does not have front locking differential. It is more comparable to Colorado trail boss.

    @jaylee8542 9 месяцев назад +1

    The trail boss is obviously a WT with a suspension mod. Just buy the LT and put a suspension under it. In the long run the cost is going to come out pretty close and you get the heated seats.

    @Boobtube. 10 месяцев назад +1

    great points on the good and bad. That seat issue is a easy fix and hopefully GM Eng. are watching. Does any Colorado offer and/ or come with a locking rear as standard or as a separate line item that can be ordered from factory for most all of the trim levels? (thinking G80)

    • @Pickuptrucktalk

    Was that front skid plate plastic? It sounded like it when you tapped on it.
    That storage bin in the tailgate is perfect for jumper cables, tow straps, ratchet straps and gloves.
    That's a good payload!
    I am shocked that Cruise Control is an option as well.
    I want more aggressive tires on the trail boss. (Meaner looking)
    None of my trucks had lighting in the bed so I wouldn't miss not having ot. Just a personal thing.
    The floor mats are a big deal.
    Loud is ok by me. Ticking... Not so much.
    I appreciate how you and Jill explain why you pick different things as focal points for review. (Like you did for the interior here). It opens up my personal view that is narrowed by my own use experience and needs.
    Just the thought of Auto High Beams makes me cringe. How many people are going to be blinded by this feature before it recognizes the car coming the other way?
    Overall it's a nice truck.
    Nice rifle BTW.

    Hey Tim,
    Happy Turkey Day!
    I really like you demonstrating headlights at night as many manufacturers lower trim level models take hits for poor performance from the insurance safety board.
    The bean counters have a long history for screwing up customer needs Vs. profit margins and it seems to be getting worse!
    GM seats are probably another bean counter issue or GM thinks it’s an anti asleep at the wheel feature!
    I might have an exercise to help you with your rear end comfort.
    RUclips has some great twerking exercise videos for rear end firming! ;)
    It would make for a great sign off to end a clip!
    As always stay safe and healthy.

    I plan on trading my 21 Tacoma Trd OR for a new gen Tacoma, 2nd year out. Probably a Hybrid Max. Pro, Limited or Trd OR Premium. It will have more power, better mpg & no wierd GM problems. 😁

    The nickle and diming (cruise control isn't standard somehow (sorry Andre from TFL) and the complete lack of certain options (LED headlights, bed lights, Heated seats, heated steering wheel, etc..) has definitely caused me to put the upcoming Tacoma ahead of The Trailboss (as long as the Taco's $ isn't crazy). I know Chevy needs a reason to justify the ZR2's price but come on!

    16:41 No you DONT have to go where you went to turn the headlights off, I own this truck, it’s that round yellow outlined button to the right of your finger on the main screen, you can do what you did but why when it’s on the main screen, my 02 Silverado I bought new and still own doesn’t even have a switch to turn headlights off, GOOD job Chevy for giving me that option on my Trail Boss 👍 most people don’t even turn them of anyways!
