Can we just appreciate the camera work with all the different angles? Great stuff! The bison is probably the best mid size off roader IMHO.
Would love to see a stock ZR2 on 33s on the course! Would give a great comparison to the Tacoma TRD/Trailhunter and the Ranger Raptor. The ZR2 Bison at $65k does compete with the Toyota and Ford more in price though.
Trailhunter is a direct competitor to the ZR2 Bison, although the lack of a winch-capable metal front bumper is beyond me. Hopefully it will be an option. Should have made the hybrid an option
@@KeithKacanekand no front locker
no front locker on the tacoma unless you start modifying.
@@KeithKacanek Trailhunter is like 80K after fees and dealer markup.
For the same price, I would 100% choose this over the Tacoma TRD Pro and it's not even close.
TRD Pro is capable enough for me, heck even a TRD Offroad would be. I would be swayed those directions due to the 2.4kw of onboard power. I'm sure Ford and GM will do the same in due time (especially Ford since they already have it in their full size), but until that happens I love that utility for camping and recreation.
@@ALMX5DP In my opinion it's not really camping if you're dragging along a bunch of electronics - I go camping to get away from all that stuff but to each their own!
@@Namesi oh sure definitely personal preference on what you want to bring along or use. I just find that feature pretty darn cool for my own use which is mostly trackside at a racetrack.
I came here to say this. This will kick a trd pro’s a$$
Same here, except I wouldn’t get the Toyota I’d get the gladiator.
Consistently impressed by the quality and quantity of your output. A blessing for us off-road enthusiasts. Thank you.
We had 3 whoo hoos! How we doing? If you get 3 whoo-whoos, you know Ryan is enjoy this rig. Keep 'em coming, Ryan!
May I dare say this! That Chevy little monster look’s wayyy better than the new Toyota Tacoma! What a beauty!! Chevy definitely got a winner with that one!
I love mine, no complaints yet.
Turbo engine.
Hi! Your channel is what convinced me to get a 2025 Subaru OBW, so great to see what it was capable of before going ahead! Keep up the great work, always cool to watch a new video :) keep everyone posted if you catch wind of the 2025 OBW
Beautiful truck, just wish it was put together better. I’ll be picking up my Bison soon in that Blue. Having driven a ZR2 for the past year I’ve come to really like the truck with a few annoyances that I hope they’ve fixed.
Really gotta love that Glacier Blue paint, just looks so crisp. And that course is really great, glad you were able to make those changes.
I adore my TRD Off-Road Tacoma with all its built up aftermarket goodness, but I would trade it in a heartbeat for this factory truck. Might have to swap once I can afford one 😂
Ezra is probably the best living automotive writer out there, glad you connected with him
By far the best midsize truck on the market today
How can you even say that?? That's hilarious, given the stop sale a few days ago. Honestly, how is it "by far" the best, all fanboy stuff aside?
@@bryy2053 most capable at the best price 🤷♂️
Most extreme, don't know about the best.
@Andrew-hi2rj so its more (basically the same price) as the ranger raptor, but from everything I've seen in the entire midsize truck market, I'm struggling to see how this is a better, far and away a more capable truck. I almost bought one recently but given it's recent recalls and stop sales, even GM doesn't think it's even good enough to sell to the public. While ford performance enters it's ranger raptors in basically stock form (except regulatory equipment) in world famous desert endurance races while winning and setting records. Besides 35s and an extra inch clearance, maybe I'm missing something and you can help me out?
@@bryy2053 ventilated seats, AC vents for the rear seats, underbody cameras, lockers that aren’t buried in the touchscreen to activate, trailer brake wiring harness is in the normal place, exhaust pipes aren’t sticking out waiting to be squished if you go down a steep slope. Also the bison edition is nearly the same price.. so full underbody armor and factory 35s only a little bit extra. The normal zr2 starts at 48k which also competes just as well.
I picked up a fully-loaded w/moonroof, paint protection, window tint, wheel locks "regular" ZR2 (in that blue) about a month ago (paid the $53 MSRP sticker), and took it to Mob for 3 days with 700mi on the clock (got about 2,200mi now). LOVE it! As a noob, the truck as WAY more capability than I do, and I plan on easing into the offroading thing. Considering that Chevy priced this into Ranger Raptor territory without an engine upgrade (95hp extra), I didn't feel the cost was worth it especially considering you're now stuck with the spare tire taking up space in the bed. I figure I'll put 34's (285/75/17 - OEM width) on the OEM rims and it should work without a lift and fit under the bed. Do that, and a skidplates for the diff and fuel tank, and I've got good upgrades to almost Bison level and saving a lot of $$. I don't need the jounce dampers. If they had put that inline-6 turbodiesel in the Bison stock or as a further upgrade for that money, I would have considered it. As is, no. I think the reason the last ZR2 had trouble on that hill was the condition of the dirt, no traction, just digging trenches, even fully locked up.
Imagine spending $70,000 on the vehicle that doesn’t let you press two pedals at the same time
Dang no 2 pedal? Good thing the nanny overrides are there to keep us safe! /s
For desert running applications, the Ranger Raptor is better. However, for rock crawling, the ZR2 Bison is superior due to its improved approach angle, rock rails, and 35-inch tires. If the Ranger Raptor were also equipped with 35-inch tires, this comparison could change.
Listening to the Raptor engineer, they went with the smaller tire for wheel travel. It wasn't designed to be a rock crawler just a high speed desert runner. My guess with high speed you don't want a CG thats too high either, otherwise you're likely to flip it.
@@jeffk464 That's very true. They would need more suspension travel to accommodate the extra 1 inch of wheel diameter.
@@migueljardim8177 More clearance or less travel for a bigger tire.
@@jeffk464the stock class Baja 1000 ranger raptor ran 35's on leveled but otherwise stock suspension so I don't really buy his explanation
They also had a fuel cell toward the back of that Raptor, which I hear is incredibly heavy. The fuel cell sits toward the back too, so I think that allowed them to balance the weight distribution so they could run 35s, maybe?
@ 12:55 Terrain mode functions when the vehicle is in 4h or 4 l, and in D (Drive), R (Reverse), or L (Low). When the vehicle is in L (Low), the lower the gear, the more aggressive the braking.
Impressive! Very capable for an out of the box pick up. LOVE the new trails Ryan!
Wow the zr2 is quite capable
GM is doing great Vehicles
Great video, love the changes to the course. Keep up the great content. Thx
Holy cow...great work with the cameras and effort in the entire video/track etc. So well done...
Very cool truck. Ill buy in 2032 when its $10k 100k miles 😂
Transfer case issue is ludicrous. Completely turns me off to a Colorado as my next overland build.
This guy is the only one on the internet that has an issue with transfer case. It's something he's doing.
@terrencejones9817 Wrong. Google it. Many people talking about it popping back into 2wd and other things.
Very nice work with the video, but i would take a ranger raptor, save 7k plus 2 more cylinders.
Great video. Completely focused on what the truck was made for. I'd prefer to two peddle it, but with some practice, you could probably get used to Terrain mode and figure out its peculiarities.
You can 2-pedal, you just can't exceed 50% throttle while dragging the brake in 4LO, which is not a big deal because the truck has a locker. Yea, he failed to mention that 50% throttle part, which Ezra explained in the article, and instead mislead viewers.
My buddy has an older Lingenfelter supercharged AEV Bison and it’s an absolute beast to wheel with.
Please do a comparison video with the Ford RR
Already filmed. Coming soon.
Only downside is tire in the back too bad couldn’t put in better spot 😊
I told them to take it off so they can install a tonneau cover on it, it works for me.
@@apexcapital1328 but your missing your spare? But yea that works too
@@Cavemol5823maybe the 35 can fit in your lap!
I love this channel. Great looking truck great video. I too question the reliability of Chevy compared to Toyota but then again Toyota has also moved to a completely different platform altogether, so the jury is still out on where that’s gonna end up kind of a weird situation that we is consumers are in right now across the board.
Considering what happened with the new Tacoma when The Fast Lane Truck took it offroading in snow (broken front 4WD) and the terrible reliability of the new Tundra, the 4th gen Taco is going to have to do a lot to prove it's reliable.
I like the little video transitions with the wild flowers, you should do more of that. - Back to the truck... Very cool I have a Frontier Pro4X that I don't think would make it up that but I don't do hard core off road so good enough for me.
Most if not all these off road trims will never see a dirt trail.
Wrong! People actually buy these type of truck to use them.... save your bull💩
@@atg1338nope they don’t, tough guy…
My boss has 3 different raptors and a shelby 150 he does nothing with them but wash them and get groceries. Its sad@alexandersheppard1997
looking to order a 2025... in between a normal ZR2 of if i can get my hands on a Bison...great video!
Just picked up my Bison and I’ll give you a comparison of the normal ZR2. It’s a bit more bumpy like you’re riding on balloons as compared to the normal ZR2 . If you want comfort go for the stander ZR2. I love the looks of the Bison so it’s worth it for me. The software has been greatly improved and most of the problems have been resolved from when it was first released. Still too soon to make a judgement on how much better but we shall see.
Thx for the update!
So all this time I thought GM is screwing up something, with the 4low glitching and whatnot, and it's because someone is 2 pedaling 🙄...who the hell does that?...why not just go 3 pedaling with a stick?
The 4wd only has problems if not used correctly, it's all driver error
@@bradsmith130 How is pressing two pedals a fucking driver error? Why the fuck is it leaving 4 low because of something so fucking minor?
Please test the trd off road tacome and 4Runner on this course. I need help making a decision - please make recommendations
As soon as we gan get the new Tacoma it's hitting the trail!
@@drivingsports I am a long time off reader and love your reviews. Can you test the prior gen Tacoma’s and 4 runner from 2020 to 2024?
A lot of us can’t afford the newest truck so we are a generation back from the newest
Love your channel and the videos. I just don’t know how these manufacturers are pricing their vehicles so high…they are definitely not worth the price IMHO. I have a 2020 TRD OR and the prices of the new Taco’s are insane too. The manufacturers are forgetting who their original market is…I would never buy a new full size or mid-size truck at today’s prices. Keep up the good work on the videos!
Way better course than those other guys!
I know Jeep is the best offroad vehicles, I've driven one for the past 40 years, and I've gone around and pulled out countless toyotas and chevys, but this new colorado bison is reaching Jeep capabilities while being road worthy as well. It still won't touch a built jeep like mine but a stock Rubicon with the recon package better be looking over their shoulder. I've not seen the Ranger Raptor much yet but those small tires will make a difference. I was hoping Toyota would have finally added a front locker, but they stick with the computer nanny. At speed on a rough fire road these trucks have a huge edge on any of the jeeps but not chevy is challenging real off-roading. Now let's talk about price. No let's not lol
But please tell us how much money you got into that over priced jeep with that amazing 3.6 in it 😂 I just traded In a 21 gladiator on 40s for a ZR2. Best decision I ever made 😝
@dusty0924 13k, but it doesn't have a 3.6
I'm happy you're enjoying your new truck.
I'm curious how the leaf springs compare to say the ranger raptor rear suspension? I can't find any good comparison reviews
Great video. You have an awesome off road course!
Imagine this thing on portals!
You lost every ounce of credibility when you said you "2 pedal" an automatic vehicle; let alone ANY vehicle...
😂
I had an old 2006 avalanche z71, such a great truck. It's really awesome to see all the design cues the Colorado (and now the new silverado) has taken from its predecessor. Miss that thing, other than the gas mileage lol.
Good looking truck✌🏾
I swear your my favorite car reviewer
As much as I like this truck, the engine does not convince me for that price ! Drop a v6 with twin turbos dammit !
I would love to see the Tacoma TRD Pro being used here! 🥰
great input about its shortfalls in following up from your previous video
More like nice to see him admit he was intentionally not using the off-roading features of the truck and instead trying to show off how he can drag the brake like he did in trucks from 50 years ago. It's like an old guy double clutching a manual transmission in a truck, not because the truck doesn't have synchros, but because he wants to show off how he knows how to double clutch.
@@hochhaul that works in reverse you know. today's drivers won't know how to drive a stick that requires precision in the clutch, no power steering, no rev sync, etc. Better to have old guy skills coming into new tech to add to them, than not have any skills at all, relying on computer, and not understanding the basic physics that are actually going on at the core of programming
Run the Frontier pro 4x for reference on a vehicle that is $20+k less
It would be perfect off road truck if it still has 3.6 N/A engine. Great off road review. Greetings
The 3.6 kinda sucked for truck use. The 4.3 would have been better, but the government's emissions regulations are forcing everyone to use turbo 4-bangers.
Chevy tried realy hard to give it the looks to compensate for the 4 banger under the hood. Got the looks but missing the balls. The Ranger Rapture got big balls.
This will definitely be my next vehicle. Thanks for the video.
i'd like to see high clearance front and rear bumpers on this. and we asked for lockers, not "modes."
Was the rear diff locked? Noticed at 17:48, one rear wheel was spinning while the other wasn't. Nice looking truck though.
Terrain mode is for ONE-pedal driving. You were driving the previous zr2 incorrectly. It is not an engineering issue. You can still two-pedal drive it if you choose not to use terrain mode.
Both me and Ezra were 2 peddle driving outside of terrain mode.
@@drivingsports You were clearly in terrain mode in both your previous zr2 videos. Whatever’s fair.
No you can 2-pedal so long as you aren't applying more than 50% throttle while applying any brake. He was literally goosing the throttle while his foot was on the brake, which was an old timer trick for trucks that didn't have a locking rear differential. It was completely stupid to do with a modern truck with front and rear lockers and a 2-speed transfer case. It's not even about control, which was his excuse. If you're applying more than half throttle, there is zero reason to be pushing on the brake at that point. It was stupid showboating that ruined multiple videos and didn't show the audience what the TRUCK was capable of. He wanted to show off his 2 pedal technique instead.
In my opinion, you didn’t gave enough credit to this truck. To me, it performed exceptionally specially comparing it to the 2door. rubicon
you could have made that hill climb but I understand it's not your truck :)
Sticker Shock !!!! What The ....
They should have made the tire rack fold down...
Seems like the Bronco made everyone go hard on off-roading. I didn't have to get a Bronco, but all these options weren't out at the time.
The Bronco didn't do that lol. The original Raptor did. The ZR2 was brought back in 2017 and began competing in racing series like Best in the Desert way back in 2017. The Bronco is actually late to the game.
@17:46 it looks like the rear locker is not engaged but it was shown @15:51 that it had been turned on. Was it on or off at that point?
This guy constantly sabotages GM products. Probably intentional.
@@terrencejones9817 I am new to the channel so I cannot speak to that. Too bad if so.
@@BowTied69yeah he always seems to do this with any gm vehicles
@@Nick-vy2ms If true, that's sad.
This guy is way too timid in attacking the hill. SMH Use the darn lockers both of them SMH
he likes to hear him self talk . shut up and drive . he has no clue how to off road . cut the time down by 50% please .
This guy is long winded he talks way too much and his driving abilities are limited but I will say his camera work is great, all the different angles ect is all terrific.
Only truck that can lock diff in 2wd.
Not true. Ranger can too.
Come on man, do this with the 24’ Ranger fx4!!
Way better than what Ford, Toyota and Nissan has put out for midsize trucks.
So with regards to the rear locker, does this mean chevy is no longer using the Eaton Locker (G80) for automatic rear locking differential?
G80 is still used in the Trail Boss Colorado and Silverado. E-lockers for the ZR2 Colorado and Silverado.
The AT4 canyon is also using that G80. It works okay. Definitely better than no locker once you figure out how to use it 👌🏼
Big problem with modern vehicles is you can't see out of them.
65K for a 4 banger! 🤯 What a waste of a beautiful truck.
Price tag is ridiculous, especially for a 4 cylinder.
Such a nice looking truck, too bad Chevy can't build reliable mid sized trucks to save their life. Id literally buy any other mid sized truck over this. My 2022 Colorado Z71 lasted 1 year and 5 months.
My 2015 canyon has 130k miles and has only had A/C replaced and water pump for radiator. Other than that it doesn’t see a shop for repairs.
If you hate g80 auto lockers chevy wants you to spend 60 grand for them to install a switch🤣. Seriously why do they not copy ford where diff locks are optional across the board?
Yeah and they should use standard parts. Can't say what this third gen is like, but the second gen zr2 axles are special Dana m220s for GM only, which are slightly different from the m220 in the jeeps. Parts are therefore currently almost impossible to come by, aftermarket options are slim.
Doesn’t cost 60k you can get into a base ZR2 for 48 to 49k. You don’t need the bison package for lockers.
I still lean to the Ranger Raptor
Gladiator laughing at all these comments 😂
All the ones piled up on lots? 😅
The ¥4 turbo is the looser for me. that and rear seat leg room.o Like e studying else.
17:28 That's what she said
Colorado Bison > Ranger Raptor
I would be worried about reliability, leaning towards either a Raptor or Taco TRD Pro.
Want a taco too but seeing the new tundra issues doesn't give me confidence :(
Ford reliable? 😂
the taco has been in the shop with issues also. no difference. your thinking of the old days when taco's were reliable and built in Japan .
Yeah let’s not mention reliability with ford or Toyota these days. I’m a ford guy and waited for the ranger raptor but after the constant recalls on broncos I decided to buy the ZR2 instead. And Toyota has an all new drivetrain with hybrid system. So let’s not use 2nd gen and earlier Toyota reliability for a sales pitch or argument on the new truck. Let’s face it all these manufacturers have gotten cheap. Not just Toyota and ford. But bang for buck I’m happy I chose the ZR2. I’m also a Toyota fan. I have owned 5 tacomas 3 2nd gen’s and 2 3rd gen’s. And I can tell you the 3rd gen motor and transmission is absolute garbage. Should have stuck with the 4 liter motor.
LOL worried about reliability, leans towards Ford or the completely unproven Taco while the Tundra is being recalled for massive engine failures and the 3rd gen Taco was rated least reliable midsize truck by consumer reports for like 4 years in a row. That cheap rear axle Toyota started using in 2016 is a glaring issue right off the rip. Mine and about half of the guys on TW had rear diff howling that was so loud the radio couldn't hide it on the highway. They switched to Thai made Hino axles and the ring and pinion are poor quality. Might as well take the Tacoma straight from the dealer's lot to the shop to have a better ring and pinion installed. Might help a bit. And in the wake of the V35A issues, I don't have any more faith in Toyota's engine and transmission as I do the other brands. 2nd gen Tacoma was peak reliability.
I think id still take the raptor.
I took it for a test drive the tires rub
I've worked mine pretty hard and never rubbed at all. Must've been one heck of a test drive. 🤔
bs
Those are big tires for a weak independent front suspension…just ask the Bronco.
As a Chevy guy, I would prefer the new Ranger Raptor!
🤔
You must not pay any attention to the ridiculous problems ford has had with the bronco platform which it shares with the ranger. Take a trip to your nearest ford dealer if you haven’t and take a gander under the hood of that ranger and tell me how amazing it is. Or check out the ridiculous amounts of recalls ford has had on them 😂
@@dusty0924 You bring up a good point. Ford quality scares me.
Yeah, that 4wd automatically disengaging was enough to turn me off completely. Sucks too, I think the same guys who designed the zr2 designed my H3T
What a shame to have that unsightly tire in the back. Thats dumb. Doesnt that block your rear view as well?
Absolutely love this exact model and colour! But the engine is quite disappointing and the reason why I won’t peruse it. If it were a v6 like before, then ide have one ordered months ago
The motor is not disappointing. For what it was built for it’s great. The torque is amazing crawling around in the hills. You want a performance truck that does quarter mile stuff buy a raptor r or trx. Everyone thinks these motors are horrible. Did you ever own and drive an early ford ranger, s10, or Tacoma with a 4 banger or gutless v6? They have come a long ways. What is it you want out of a midsize truck power and torque wise?
@@dusty0924 The main issue I have with it is how reliable it’ll be and how long it’ll last before failing. It’s impressive the power and torque they got out of this new 4 cyl, but now it’s gonna be working twice as hard than a v6 or v8 would every day. I’m fine with the power and torque it produces, I just don’t like the fact it’s smaller and it’ll run hotter cause it’s lacking 2 pistons that would really help it out for simple tasks. What I want out of a midsize truck is exactly what the zr2 bison has, but with the engine power and reliability out of say the ranger raptor for example
@@jeffrd turbos have made these new smaller engines so efficient they really aren’t working that hard. I understand what you’re saying 100% and would agree with you 10yrs ago. But these new motors are pretty reliable for their size and power output thanks to turbos. The ranger raptor is also an amazing truck with its own share of issues but let’s be real. All these new vehicles no matter manufacturer are going to have issues. And we can thank the EPA for that. But we have gotten so spoiled and I think the hunt for more power is out of control. People want insane numbers and then complain about reliability lol. For a midsize truck I think the ZR2 actually runs really good and mine is on 35s already. Would I love another 100hp and torque? Of course. But for what the truck is I definitely can’t complain myself.
@@jeffrd at the end of the day there will always be something faster or better. Buy a new raptor r and some guy pulls up with one that’s turned up making 1k hp. Then you’re chasing that. I have been there and done that with cars. It’s a never ending addiction. But I’m not in a place financially that I need a 150k raptor. So buy a ZR2 and build a mustang or something to go fast 😂🤷🏼♂️
@@dusty0924 That’s very true. I guess for those who wanna go nuts with this, they could beef up the turbos, intercooler, cooling system, oil pump, fuel pump, ecm, tunes, and other stuff to the point they can get +100hp or more out of it. But then again, that’s adding more work for this little engine too. I’ll have to wait for someone else to do it first before really nagging on it. And yes, engines have definitely come a long way since 10 years ago. Both in good and bad ways, but that goes for a lot of things. I guess the other thing is the sound from the 4 cyl. Stock it sounds a bit like my mower, haha. However I’ve seen some guys straight pipe it from the headers all the way down to the exhaust tip and man it makes it so much louder. It’ll never sound like a v8 or even a v6, but at least with mods it can sound a lot better and more aggressive than it comes stock. Only time will tell where this engine will go, and thanks to RUclips, we can watch and research from others doing stuff with it before we do it ourselves
looks great just over priced.
17:27 you’re welcome
This truck isn't made for guys like this.
Worst problem this truck has is its a GM product. Its cool as hell looking, very well equiped and quite capable. And they price is decent too for the section. But as an EVERY BRAND fanboy, chevy for the past 15 years has been steadily inching downward in quality. Fact. No chevy fanboy can prove me wrong. Not saying other brands arent following suit as well, but just because everything else smells of shit, doesnt mean a piece of shit isnt a piece of shit.
I agree with you that their quality is going down. It’s very evident in the new LT series v8 engines and their cylinder deactivation.
You’re also seeing trucks as new as 2018 rot really quickly.
But, I’ve seen a lot of independent car people tear this engine down. Apparently it’s pretty solid. I am worried about the screens and electronics in it
Because you say it's a fact, it's therefore a fact? Based on what data? I don't favor one company over another, I'm not a Chevy fanboy per say. But your statement is stupid. If you want say in your opinion, fine. But don't be so self righteous.
Your opinion don’t mean much at the end of the day
All brands have issues
Well, if you do any amount of research past "passive consumer" levels. Its not self righteousness. Its trend analasys. Just about every brand is nosing down, but none have been so pronounced as GM unforthnatelly. And just stating American, quickly followed by anything in stellantis group, and then ford. Jap brands are fairing SLIGHTLY better but have skyrocketed to unacceptible pricing, such as toyota. Do some very BASIC research, you will find the data backs up my claims. It is zero bias. I couldnt give a fuck less if chevy was good right now or not, I dont have ang stocks in the company, nor do I own a colorado anymore. But hey, if my pointing out your hero truck isnt a god upsets you..... fine. I wont lose sleep over it.
You’re wrong. Fact. Prove me wrong. There, I can do it too.
Gm needs to fix the 2 foot problem or what good is that truck for 65k ultimately it is junk
When he's talking about "2-pedaling" he's referring to the computer limitation that you can't be applying more than 50% throttle while dragging the brake. You can applying 25% throttle and drag the brake to your hearts content, the turck won't disable 4-low. There is absolutely NO reason you would need to goose the throttle while dragging the brake in real world off-road driving. He's exaggerating how he's trying to avoid using the brake and throttle at the same time because he has ruined multiple off-roading videos with the ZR2 trucks because he refused to use the lockers and instead insisted on showing off how he can off-road the truck with an open diff. It was stupid and pointless, and he's acting like a big baby for being called out for it in previous videos.
TLDR: You can 2-pedal, the limitation is that you can't be gunning it and dragging the brake at the same time, which isn't a big deal because the truck has lockers and doesn't need you to drag the brakes to have traction or control.
Lmao. Junk because you can’t 2 pedal. No one does that.
better than ford ranger
The finke and mint 400 desert races would demonstrate otherwise.
Silly take considering they’re targeting different things
@MarkPharaoh that's not true. They are very similar trucks in their target purpose and consumer. It's not like ones a mustang and the other is a wrx.
@@bryy2053 One is literally built and targets desert running and the other is a rock crawler.
@@MarkPharaoh a rock crawler with "baja mode." Its not considered a dedicated rock crawler like some jeeps and broncos are. Desert running is even mentioned @ the 3:20 mark in this video.

Depends on what you’re trying to do
Agreed. GM is junk nowadays.
Yea...I love that Ford gets 10K above sticker. That's SO cool.

Too quick to switch on the lockers imo instead of seeing what the truck can do first.
The lockers are part of the truck....
If you've ever been to his course, it's much steeper than it looks. No lockers would just tear it up.
Turning on the lockers is showing what the truck can do. Trying to drive it offroad with an open diff is showing how some dumbboomer can drag the brakes while gunning it.
@@EZapar That's his problem. If he wants to review trucks, use them as they were engineered to be used. Showing everyone how you can drag the brakes while gunning it in 4Lo with the locker unlocked isn't showing anyone what the truck is capable of.
@@hochhaul Not sure why you posted that twice. But I looked at your page and saw absolutely no content that would make me believe anything you say could be worth paying attention to. Cheers.
Toyota till I die.
Good luck with that
Now, if they would just get rid of that awful 8 speed
It won’t last half as long as a Tacoma.
I would LOVE to hear the reasoning for testing trucks equipped with front and rear lockers by two pedaling them with neither locked. What insight does the potential buyer get from watching a guy try to two-pedal around in a truck with the diffs unlocked? It really looks quite stupid to be honest. You wasted our time in multiple videos while making the trucks look broken, simply because you insisted on this two-pedal showboating bs. And deceptively glossed over the fact that you actually CAN use the brake while applying throttle. Ezra explained quite clearly that you can't apply more than 50% throttle while dragging the brake in 4LO. Was that really so hard to say? Instead you do this weaselly "long story short you can't 2-pedal at all" lie.
You try to make these passive aggressive comments about how it's "rolling back because wah wah wah I can't 2-pedal". Incredible. I have driven these trucks up steep offroad grades and used both pedals to prevent rollback without the system intervening. You can apply light throttle and use the brakes to prevent rollback. It's pretty pathetic how you try to exaggerate how you can't use the brake and throttle with finesse. I guess your idea of throttle control is either off-throttle or wide open.
Chevy is so stupid they would rather let their flagship midsized switch itself into 2wd from 4 low then perform a simple software update. Nice. Just another reason this life long diehard Chevy guy will NEVER buy another GM product. You can't fix stupid. But you can stop buying their products.
The only stupid is you in this comment. The guy driving the truck in this video is salty because he was called out for ruining multiple videos with these trucks for no reason at all. People are here to see how the truck can perform with the offroading equipment it came with. Nobody is here to see how good his 2-pedaling technique is. You can 2-pedal the truck in 4LO, which he intentionally lies and pretends you can't do. What you can't do is give the truck more than 50% throttle while dragging the brake. If you need to finesse the truck up a technical trail, you can 2-pedal to prevent rolling back so long as you aren't goosing the throttle while dragging the brake. No need for software updates. This channel just needs a guy that isn't a liar and a whiny baby.
Will you laugh at you buddy with your joke?Forwards all of us have laughed at Ford's.Get a real test around here, not a funny bunch of Bologna.Don't even let a drive
