They had a Ford powerboost versus the TRD hybrid, the power boost walked away, and the TRD is ready to have higher torque numbers. I own a power boost, and it is quick.
Great job! 80 % of the population can't afford a $70,000 truck. But I like that you compared the zr2 to the Toyota and not a trx or raptor.

It’s same size tires as the tundra. Both have 33s from the factory. Wouldn’t be fair to the tundra if they only put 35s on the zr2 but I agree 35’s are the sweet spot tire size for these full size half ton trucks. 35’s give it the perfect look and stance.

If Toyota changes the front and rear bumper and include recovery points, I would be in the market for the Tundra but I don't see that happening. It still suprises me how they would create such a good truck without base level truck features on a $70k rig.
Still can't believe Toyota said their reason for no recovery points up front even in the trd pro is because of aerodynamics. Like someone buying a full sized truck is totally gonna care about aerodynamics.
Yeah completely agree. If Im buying a truck it should have basic truck things. That's a big ass fail. Im usually leaning toward Toyota's but in the video vs the Chevy it lost as far as Im concerned.

Clearly outperforms the Toyota by having more and better off-road gear with front and rear lockers, a better four wheel drive system, state-of-the-art suspension, and one of the best reliable engines from GM, along with a way better approach and departure angle. The ZR2’s current tire size is perfect for day to day use. I wouldn’t change that at all, unless TFL proves that. Great video, TFL.
@@brianhuffman3202 So it has shocks, cool. That's one step up from an 1800's horse buggy I guess. You realize we do have better technology now right? It has leaf springs for one reason: because GM is cheap. You guys are only just getting 4 wheel disk brakes, and independent suspension in your cars!
I agree totally! I know I am a crusty old man but small engines and twin turbos spells higher maintenance and repair, shorter engine life, and not really as much mpg gain under hard use in real world as on paper.
@@allenmcdonald1652 I think itll play out well. While the Landcruiser does have the electricity it does have the same v6. So if Toyota was confident to put it in the Landcruiser i think it'll prove to be a good engine. Especially after a few years of production. We all know Toyota likes to keep engines for as long as possible. They have also been using turbo diesels in their HINO trucks and other trucks for years so I think Toyota has some solid turbo tech under their belt.
That’s why I went with my 3rd Tundra with a 5.7 vs the new Twin turboed V6s. A 2017 TRD Pro. They definitely have become complacent with the Tundra now. The amount of small features you have to pay extra for such as a subscription for using the built in remote start. No step up from the bumper to the tailgate unless you want to pay extra for the food down step. For the cost of a house in some areas. Those small amenities shouldn’t be Extra or a monthly fee.
@xdtrl. Smart choice on your part imo. I decided to switch to Tacoma trd pro this time. I am very happy with it in general but sometimes I really miss the roomy cabin, the power, and that beautiful rumble exhaust. I also am not in love with the gear hunting transmission!
@@allenmcdonald1652 wrong. Ford has proven this wrong by a long shot. It's old and tired nonsense saying smaller engine turbo trucks are not long term reliable.
Since when has a GM 1/2 ton had a small aftermarket? Even if it doesn't have the same kind of aftermarket as a GEN3/GEN4 LSx the GEN5 LTx still has a decent size aftermarket, and likely one bigger than the new Toyota V6 TT engine will have. It even runs the same transmission as Mustang/Camaro/F150 which helps its aftermarket. The biggest deterrent to the Chevy's aftermarket is GM locking up their tuning abilities so tightly. With that said I'm sure the GEN3 Tundra will have a large enough aftermarket to be able to mod it however you want to.
I’m switching from a ford fusion (2013) to a 2022 tundra TRD off road. And tbh. When I took my fusion off roading because I fish in remote places, it made it through all these conditions shown. Some people are surprised but I just sent it and she made it just fine.
The suspension arms on the rear axle really dip low on the ZR2. Sayin that, the ZR2 seemed to be the better off-road. The TRD seems to be extremely bulky, bumpers look too cumbersome.
I agree with the first part of what you said, but not the second part. The ZR2 IS a better off roader because of the approach/departure angles, front locker, and tow hooks. However the TRD pro ran all of the trails in this video every bit as well as the ZR2 which shows it is definitely NOT just for show, it’s just not quite on par with the Zed. However I believe the Tundra would still do 98% plus what most people would ever dream of attempting.
@@dennissmith7214 I wouldn’t say it’s for show, I don’t think it’s as good as the ZR2, I think the tundra need bigger tires and a raked front end but it performed just as well as the ZR2 in this test

Talking shop with your friend over walkies! --- Man…. Life goals. Love it.
@@rdsii64 and then some will say you shouldn't take a $70k truck offroad. You see, this was a total oversight on Toyotas behalf. They were so blind sided by the towhook debacle they're literally back to the drawing board to give the refresh some tow hooks. Every Toyota truck up until this new Tundra has had tow hooks. Even my 4 door toyota sedan has FOUR recovery points on the chassis. Either way, most people who do serious wheeling in their trucks rip off the garbage pedestrian friendly bumpers and put winch bumpers on anyway. Engineered for better approach angles, better protection, better recovery points and in my opinion, better looks.
It feels like GM wanted to keep development and special parts as minimal as possible for the ZR2. I think they know the market, while hot, will be ending within the decade because of EV’s. Thankfully the aftermarket can fix the tire size issues
70k, lol. What's happening to this world? I was in a showroom not long ago and they had a truck, not special edition, just a loaded truck, for like 90k. WTH?
Well, Tundra is the only truck that has real Heim (R) rod ends, as in made by Heim in Connecticut. I work for RBC Bearings, we own the Heim division; we are looking to expand usage of actual Heim parts into the Tacoma as well. Funny people call them Heim joints but they are not made by us; auto makers went with cheap stuff, good to see Toyota coming back to actual US-made rod ends, with steel sourced from the US too
For 70 g’s I’d buy a stock Chevy 2500 or a Ford 250 or Ram 2500 and put 6” lift, king or Fox shocks with reservoir overflow’s and be able to be either one of those trucks hands down and probably have 10 grand in your pocket still..
ZR2 CHEVY SILVERADO VS FORD TREMOR (WHOS THE BEST OF THE BEST) TOW-MPG-ETC...(YOU guys are the best at testing) obviously THIS TEST SITE your doing now. And TRUTH OR DARE... OR FORD RANGER TREMOR VS CHEVYS COLORADO ZR2 OR EVEN THE BISON....HOPEFULLY will see these test soon.
I'm in the market for a full-size truck and just dropping that much money for a brand new one I had to make sure I picked the right one. It's down to two the Toyota Tundra 2023 TRD PRO and the Chevy Silverado ZR2, but man I have seen so many videos of disappointed customers with the reliability of the Silverado truck along with mechanical problems with the other big brand the Ford F150 Tremor. So my money goes to the TRD PRO Tundra.
I would go Tundra all day. Owned a couple of Chevy’s in my day and I’ve had problems with every single one. Went to Toyota and haven’t looked back. Toyota builds that truck for the everyday person that goes camping on the weekend. Add a Wescott 3 inch lift and 37’s cause they fit with the new body style, and you’ll go everywhere.
@@quintili1 The Trail-boss also has the G80 rear rocker, runs a size 32 tire, pretty much toes over the ZR 2. The only thing Toyota would argue it has over the trail boss is the shocks. But, trail boss has Bilstein monotube 5100 shock absorbers which give it good travel over the regular pick ups, has pretty much as advanced as possible traction control system with a clutch system in its 4WD transfer case to manage power back and front. Anyways, in the end, it comes down to personal preference. For me, the only reason to get a ZR2 is front rocker. That totally makes it superior to all trucks.
@@ravensfootball52 Battery tech isn't new, but it ages and replacement is very expensive. So are turbos. Both are wear items that have a very finite life over 100k.
Too much for me. As I have no need for that much truck for towing. If Toyota offered a bronco like truck like the series 70 landcruiser. I’d buy it. But so far the Tacoma gets the job done. The 4Runner is cool but I prefer the Tacoma for its interior and chain driven motor and 6speed
It's mind boggling to me that Toyota wouldn't offer an off-road package for the TRD to include a front and rear bumper with much better approach and departure angles. That tells me they're not really in touch with the community using their trucks.
Guys please read the manual on Toyotas. It’s so painful watching car journalists try to engage 4H when stationary while it clearly says in the manual to engage it while moving, in which case it goes in immediately.
You shouldn't have to do that in any truck in 2022. Toyota is being cheap because they know their fans will accept it. Most other brands haven't had the issue for decades.
Can you add some cross-ditches to your testing courses? Those are probably the biggest obstacle that stops cars from being able to go further up trails in my area, and I'd love to be able to include practical demonstrations into my purchasing decisions
Goodluck reselling it 5 years from now from the junkyard. TOYOTA is the KING of all trucks. Thats why They exported and transformed into tanks. Chevy 😂😂 disposable
@@18HunnidBK I'm not a Chevy fan by any means but Toyota messed up by switching to the small engine with turbos, they've already had tons of major issues with them. And yes as far as reliability in the older trucks Toyota was hard to beat but they couldn't haul or tow anywhere close to the 3 American brands. They're good for hauling a loaf of bread home from the store & that's about it.
Interior sound. I noticed how loud the rain sounded in the zr2 vs trd pro. Maybe it's just an issue of camera placement but if it actually is quieter in the trd, would be cool to mention.
I love my Toyotas, but I would love to ve in the room where Toyota folks argue AGAINST welding some recovery points to the truck. It HAS to be inexpensive to do, everyone else has them - but instead they omit them and people have to try and justify their absence.
The obvious big difference during a time when gas costs $4.50 -$6.50 a gallon is the 22-26 MPG with the TRD!!! And you get so much more HP and torque!!!
It took me 4 hours to watch this video because the sound of rain on the roof kept putting me to sleep 🛌, but that’s alright because it took 4 hours to charge my Lightning from 50% to 100%.
Remember when Jeep used to test their new models for the trail rated badge , over the Rubicon Trail? lets test the ZR 2 ,TRD Pro, 150 Tremor, Powerwagon , and see who comes out on top . who wants to see that?
One thing that is never mentioned when comparing HP numbers is where that power is made in the rpm range and thus how usable and practical it is. I suspect the turbo’d engine needs to wrapped pretty tight to get those numbers. If so the lower powered Chevy might actually feel more powerful in real world applications.
Watching that made me remember why I keep my old 89 Dakota 4x4 over any 70 thousand dollar new truck! that comes with two hundred dollar plus insurance payments! That couldn't even think about following a thirty-three year old mostly stock truck with fifty dollar a month insurance payments. Lmao. That made my day
Both of these trucks look great inside out. however, the ZR2 is thirsty yet underpowered and needs bigger tires. The toyota is horrible on clearances approach, departure, overall clearance, tire size and no recovery hooks. For reliability I'd take the Tundra, for serious offloading ZR2 hands down
@@02hreblue30 6.2L 420 hp / 460 lb-ft of torque, look at the competition. Ford powerboost 430hp / 570 lb-ft of torque, Toyota I-Force max 437 hp / 583 lb-ft of torque, New Ram hurricane 500+ hp / 475+ lb-ft of torque, Ford Raptor 450 hp / 510 lb-ft of torque, Ford Raptor R 700 hp / 649 lb -ft of torque, and lastly Ram TRX 702 hp / 650 lb-ft of torque. Chevy is the least powerful among all Full sized trucks and Why? even Toyota which is last to follow in everything beat it when it comes to power numbers. A beast like the ZR2 needs more power and bigger tires
Was the difference in cab noise during the rain accurate? Or was it microphone placement, etc? Because from the video, the interior of the Silverado sounded a lot louder.
Ive found Toyota transfer cases have always been hard to get in and out of 4wd. Electronic or manual. My 92 toyota pickup 22re with manual hubs and transfer case is so hard to get in 4-wheel drive sometimes. I'm sure age has to do something with it too but on the other hand, my 2012 Toyota sequoia with an automatic transfer case is the same way lol. It'll blink and blink and sometimes it just takes some TLC to get it to go into 4wd. My dads ram TRX goes into 4wd instantly lol.
When going into 4hi, you just need to be moving so things can engage. Sitting still, like Andre did on his 4hi shift, was his issue. My 2013 clicks into and out of 4hi perfectly as have all my Toyotas. 4lo you do when stopped and in neutral, of course, and same thing; right in and out, but many go from 2 wheel drive straight into 4lo. You want to be in 4hi before stopping and shifting into neural and initiation 4lo. I am also in 4hi and 4lo almost every weekend (driving in the mountains) which is good for the actuators. Another tip for 4x4 owners; shift into 4 hi and 4lo at least once a month even if for a short, straight parking lot drive of 50 feet. People that only shift their pickups into 4x4 once or twice a year a way more likely to have issues long term because the actuators not being used can stick.
Someday GM will put panoramic sunroof panels in the Silverado. The rain was much more subdued in the TuRD. You could hear the rain on the tin roof in Roman's Z.
The whole video I'm thinking my old 120 Prado would chew that trail up pretty easily and I just can't comprehend spending $70k on a truck to go off roading that you wouldn't want to get scratched or dinged. I can't get over how long each wheelbase is, either! The Toyota looks like a parade float.
@@paulhunter9613 Thats why everyone drives Toyotas in Australia and Africa and every desert in the world? You have to be joking. If you want to go into the desert in the Outback or Sahara take anything you like, if you want to COME OUT get a Toyota. Dominate the world for good reason
@@02hreblue30 they prob have to drive TOYotas in those countries because that’s all that is available. Fortunately my country isn’t all desert , maybe yours is. You have my sympathy. And the small areas of desert we do have, I find no reason to drive around in it. If I feel the need to play in the sand I’ll go to the beach. And I’ll do it in a/c comfort
Do you think that these trucks might take the same amount of time to shift into (with a little movement) 4wd but the Silverado assumes it'll be good once they start driving so they make the light solid right away and the Tundra is actually just being more... transparent?
Tell Roman that if he's gonna talk food he needs to buy Lunch. As for the Trucks, I'd be willing to drive either one of them. Although I would prefer better MPG than either one gets. Still the trade off might be worth it.
One thing i cant get passed is how a new 2022 redesigned tundra , wont think about small details that are detrimental for a pickup truck... recovery points.. and easy bed access like corner steps or tail gate engineering
Its crazy how much louder the interior of the Chevy was with the rain compared to that of the Toyota. I know Toyota uses a special sound dampening windshield on the TRD Pro and Capstone but that was a pretty dramatic difference.
Roman, stop being scared 😜. That weather is awesome for a video review of trucks! We want to see more of these types of vids.

We all know Toyota likes to keep engines for as long as possible. They have also been using turbo diesels in their HINO trucks and other trucks for years so I think Toyota has some solid turbo tech under their belt.
That’s why I went with my 3rd Tundra with a 5.7 vs the new Twin turboed V6s. A 2017 TRD Pro.
They definitely have become complacent with the Tundra now. The amount of small features you have to pay extra for such as a subscription for using the built in remote start. No step up from the bumper to the tailgate unless you want to pay extra for the food down step.
For the cost of a house in some areas. Those small amenities shouldn’t be Extra or a monthly fee.
@xdtrl. Smart choice on your part imo. I decided to switch to Tacoma trd pro this time. I am very happy with it in general but sometimes I really miss the roomy cabin, the power, and that beautiful rumble exhaust. I also am not in love with the gear hunting transmission!
@@allenmcdonald1652 wrong. Ford has proven this wrong by a long shot. It's old and tired nonsense saying smaller engine turbo trucks are not long term reliable.
If I could afford either of those I would go with the zr2
Glad you guys touched it out in the rain. Made for a pretty cool video.
There is no doubt that the ZR2 was more confident in crossing the rough terrains, and damn it looks way more attractive.
Just based on looks alone I’d go with the ZR2. For offroad……I’d go with the ZR2 also. But I already know there’ll be more aftermarket for the Tundra
zr2 is better stock. Tundra has a higher ceiling
Easy choice … ZR2 is such a great platform; doesn’t even need much in the way of aftermarket “help.”
Since when has a GM 1/2 ton had a small aftermarket? Even if it doesn't have the same kind of aftermarket as a GEN3/GEN4 LSx the GEN5 LTx still has a decent size aftermarket, and likely one bigger than the new Toyota V6 TT engine will have. It even runs the same transmission as Mustang/Camaro/F150 which helps its aftermarket. The biggest deterrent to the Chevy's aftermarket is GM locking up their tuning abilities so tightly.
With that said I'm sure the GEN3 Tundra will have a large enough aftermarket to be able to mod it however you want to.
The elephant in the room is the MPG. It's the reason for the smaller tires.
I’m switching from a ford fusion (2013) to a 2022 tundra TRD off road. And tbh. When I took my fusion off roading because I fish in remote places, it made it through all these conditions shown. Some people are surprised but I just sent it and she made it just fine.
lucky next owner of the Fusion LOL
The suspension arms on the rear axle really dip low on the ZR2.
Sayin that, the ZR2 seemed to be the better off-road. The TRD seems to be extremely bulky, bumpers look too cumbersome.
No front recovery points, no front lockers, approach angle and plastic up front make it not even an off-roader in my book😳…………it’s for show mostly!
@@dennissmith7214 yep exactly
I agree with the first part of what you said, but not the second part. The ZR2 IS a better off roader because of the approach/departure angles, front locker, and tow hooks. However the TRD pro ran all of the trails in this video every bit as well as the ZR2 which shows it is definitely NOT just for show, it’s just not quite on par with the Zed. However I believe the Tundra would still do 98% plus what most people would ever dream of attempting.
@@dennissmith7214 I wouldn’t say it’s for show, I don’t think it’s as good as the ZR2, I think the tundra need bigger tires and a raked front end but it performed just as well as the ZR2 in this test

That was a great review of both trucks. I would chose the ZR2. That's the way to review them. In a storm.
Thanks for the dedication to making this video I really enjoyed it !
Because it doesn't have recovery points, I can't wait to see a TRD pro Tundra get stuck just to see how they go about getting it out.
This is nothing new. Hook to the lower control arms or rip the flimsy clipped on black center portion of the bumper and hook onto the frame rail.
Hook it too the ugly grill, Rip it off and then maybe it would look better
My 2WD Silverado even has them.
@@CACressida Thats kind of the point. You shouldn't have to remove the bumper on a $70K truck when you get if you get stuck.
@@rdsii64 and then some will say you shouldn't take a $70k truck offroad. You see, this was a total oversight on Toyotas behalf. They were so blind sided by the towhook debacle they're literally back to the drawing board to give the refresh some tow hooks. Every Toyota truck up until this new Tundra has had tow hooks. Even my 4 door toyota sedan has FOUR recovery points on the chassis.
Either way, most people who do serious wheeling in their trucks rip off the garbage pedestrian friendly bumpers and put winch bumpers on anyway. Engineered for better approach angles, better protection, better recovery points and in my opinion, better looks.
Love that 6.2 liter V-8
It feels like GM wanted to keep development and special parts as minimal as possible for the ZR2. I think they know the market, while hot, will be ending within the decade because of EV’s. Thankfully the aftermarket can fix the tire size issues
Really enjoyed the video during the storm. Real world testing at its best.
70k, lol. What's happening to this world? I was in a showroom not long ago and they had a truck, not special edition, just a loaded truck, for like 90k. WTH?
Love the banter - your channels are only getting better!! Keep them coming.
Well, Tundra is the only truck that has real Heim (R) rod ends, as in made by Heim in Connecticut. I work for RBC Bearings, we own the Heim division; we are looking to expand usage of actual Heim parts into the Tacoma as well. Funny people call them Heim joints but they are not made by us; auto makers went with cheap stuff, good to see Toyota coming back to actual US-made rod ends, with steel sourced from the US too
Would love to know who makes the steel for the Tundra’s tow hooks. Interesting team of engineers at Toyota…🤦🏽♂️
Yes, I envy you. Don't lie you didn't want to hear that.
@@traxxas_cars160 dude, they said "heim", not "hemi".
TUNDRA owner .my 2007 TUNDRA has 405000 miles on it with all original powertrane.. Id like to see that chevy passed 200000 miles.
Both trucks look awesome but the lower stance and clearance in the yota made me clinch my teeth with every angle and not so much with the ZR2
For 70 g’s I’d buy a stock Chevy 2500 or a Ford 250 or Ram 2500 and put 6” lift, king or Fox shocks with reservoir overflow’s and be able to be either one of those trucks hands down and probably have 10 grand in your pocket still..

ZR2 CHEVY SILVERADO VS FORD TREMOR (WHOS THE BEST OF THE BEST)

OR FORD RANGER TREMOR VS CHEVYS COLORADO ZR2 OR EVEN THE BISON....HOPEFULLY will see these test soon.
As soon as the Silverado ZR2 🦬 with Duramax option is out and AEV has high clearance fender kit for 35s or 37s I'm in.
I'm in the market for a full-size truck and just dropping that much money for a brand new one I had to make sure I picked the right one. It's down to two the Toyota Tundra 2023 TRD PRO and the Chevy Silverado ZR2, but man I have seen so many videos of disappointed customers with the reliability of the Silverado truck along with mechanical problems with the other big brand the Ford F150 Tremor. So my money goes to the TRD PRO Tundra.
Great content! Im considering both leaning more towards the Tundra
Don’t get stuck because you don’t have any front recovery points or front lockers! 😆😆🤦🏽♂️
I would go Tundra all day. Owned a couple of Chevy’s in my day and I’ve had problems with every single one. Went to Toyota and haven’t looked back. Toyota builds that truck for the everyday person that goes camping on the weekend. Add a Wescott 3 inch lift and 37’s cause they fit with the new body style, and you’ll go everywhere.
I went with the Tundra. Currently waiting on it. I saw a Pro in person and IMO it looks better than the ZR2 and even the Raptor, especially in orange.
@@aidenmcgonigal7377 I have never had any issues with my Chevrolet vehicles.
@@aidenmcgonigal7377 Toyota will leave you on the side of the road. My 2010 tundra was in the shop for a new engine when I towed a boat.
Would love to see the F150 Tremor matched up against these two.
Its real competation is the Trail Boss
@@mbukukanyau It has the same size tires as the ZR2. Plus a rear locker and torsion front diff. It's absolutely a direct competitor for the ZR2.
@@quintili1 The Trail-boss also has the G80 rear rocker, runs a size 32 tire, pretty much toes over the ZR 2.
The only thing Toyota would argue it has over the trail boss is the shocks. But, trail boss has Bilstein monotube 5100 shock absorbers which give it good travel over the regular pick ups, has pretty much as advanced as possible traction control system with a clutch system in its 4WD transfer case to manage power back and front. Anyways, in the end, it comes down to personal preference. For me, the only reason to get a ZR2 is front rocker. That totally makes it superior to all trucks.
The Truck King channel made a video comparing the tremor and ZR2
The trd is bad ass, definitely my pick. Although the Chevy looks great too. I hope we see more from these two

It would be awesome if the straight six Duramax was an option in the ZR2.
It will be soon when they release the bison trim
Nothing scares Andre the Russian bear! Great video guys. Actually pretty cool to see a video while in a storm.
I’d probably buy a Tremor if I were in the market for something like this, but that ZR2 looks pretty good.
For an additional 20k you could.
Too much for me. As I have no need for that much truck for towing. If Toyota offered a bronco like truck like the series 70 landcruiser. I’d buy it. But so far the Tacoma gets the job done. The 4Runner is cool but I prefer the Tacoma for its interior and chain driven motor and 6speed
It's mind boggling to me that Toyota wouldn't offer an off-road package for the TRD to include a front and rear bumper with much better approach and departure angles. That tells me they're not really in touch with the community using their trucks.
If people want to off-road and want a Toyota, they buy a TRD Tacoma, not Tundra. These trucks are for construction foreman lol, not off-roaders.
Guys please read the manual on Toyotas. It’s so painful watching car journalists try to engage 4H when stationary while it clearly says in the manual to engage it while moving, in which case it goes in immediately.
EXACTLY, they already went through this while testing the Tacomas. 🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻 and yet they still seem like rookies
It should engage immediately at all times
They always seem like rookies, like car salesmen that aren't really car guys, its pretty weird actually...
@@martinsiedlecki if you know Toyota trucks, it doesn’t. Trucks needs to be moving a bit in order to engage.
You shouldn't have to do that in any truck in 2022. Toyota is being cheap because they know their fans will accept it. Most other brands haven't had the issue for decades.
Remember when you can get a lot of truck for 45k? That wasn’t that long ago
Will the ZR2 get the diesel that the Trail Boss has as an option? Upper 20's mpg is much better than low teens.
Yes. They’ll be releasing a BISON 🦬 trim soon and that one will come with a diesel
Can you add some cross-ditches to your testing courses? Those are probably the biggest obstacle that stops cars from being able to go further up trails in my area, and I'd love to be able to include practical demonstrations into my purchasing decisions
I'd take the ZR2 anyday over those turbos.
👍🏻 CORRECT
Chevy reliability is garbage, especially for that 6.2. Their diesel is the only engine worth getting.
Goodluck reselling it 5 years from now from the junkyard. TOYOTA is the KING of all trucks. Thats why They exported and transformed into tanks. Chevy 😂😂 disposable
@@18HunnidBK I'm not a Chevy fan by any means but Toyota messed up by switching to the small engine with turbos, they've already had tons of major issues with them. And yes as far as reliability in the older trucks Toyota was hard to beat but they couldn't haul or tow anywhere close to the 3 American brands. They're good for hauling a loaf of bread home from the store & that's about it.
@Brian Jake Gaming NO. Toyota copied Ecoboost and Powerboost from Ford
I’m a tundra guy and own the 22 but if I didn’t the Chevy would be my next choice
Interior sound. I noticed how loud the rain sounded in the zr2 vs trd pro. Maybe it's just an issue of camera placement but if it actually is quieter in the trd, would be cool to mention.
Good catch. I have a 2019 Silverado and any time it rains hard it’s very loud inside the cab to the point it’s annoying.
I just commented on that too. It was one of the first things I noticed.
I am so jealous you guys are in that environment driving really nice trucks!
I love my Toyotas, but I would love to ve in the room where Toyota folks argue AGAINST welding some recovery points to the truck. It HAS to be inexpensive to do, everyone else has them - but instead they omit them and people have to try and justify their absence.
The obvious big difference during a time when gas costs $4.50 -$6.50 a gallon is the 22-26 MPG with the TRD!!! And you get so much more HP and torque!!!
bingo. and inherent reliability
It took me 4 hours to watch this video because the sound of rain on the roof kept putting me to sleep 🛌, but that’s alright because it took 4 hours to charge my Lightning from 50% to 100%.

That tundra will still be worth $20k in 20 years, the Chevy will be on the 3rd tranny and second motor.

Wgag. Landcruisers shit on white girl jeeps
One thing that is never mentioned when comparing HP numbers is where that power is made in the rpm range and thus how usable and practical it is. I suspect the turbo’d engine needs to wrapped pretty tight to get those numbers. If so the lower powered Chevy might actually feel more powerful in real world applications.
Turbos will usually have more low end torque
The hybrid system on the tundra helps with low end torque as well.
Peak torque around 2,400 rpm. Tundra will dawg that Chevy.
Electric motors have ALL their torque at near zero RPM.

Curious if a VHS tape fit in the Chevy flow-tie?
Both of these trucks look great inside out. however, the ZR2 is thirsty yet underpowered and needs bigger tires. The toyota is horrible on clearances approach, departure, overall clearance, tire size and no recovery hooks. For reliability I'd take the Tundra, for serious offloading ZR2 hands down
underpowered? say what? WTF
@@02hreblue30 6.2L 420 hp / 460 lb-ft of torque, look at the competition.

Chevy is the least powerful among all Full sized trucks and Why? even Toyota which is last to follow in everything beat it when it comes to power numbers. A beast like the ZR2 needs more power and bigger tires
I think Toyota is nuts for charging the same price as a base Raptor for that truck.
Agree & exactly why the Tundra is 5th place in sales for the segment.
Hopefully toyota will listen to their customers and redesign the front end and put recovering hooks
Was the difference in cab noise during the rain accurate? Or was it microphone placement, etc? Because from the video, the interior of the Silverado sounded a lot louder.
And on the Tundra , the curtain was also open exposing the full glass to the rain with out the buffer????
I recently bought a 2023 ZR2 in the same sand dune metallic color and I love it. Too bad the prices are higher than mentioned in the video.

Wow I must say The cabin in the Toyota is a lot quieter than in the Chevy
Ive found Toyota transfer cases have always been hard to get in and out of 4wd. Electronic or manual. My 92 toyota pickup 22re with manual hubs and transfer case is so hard to get in 4-wheel drive sometimes. I'm sure age has to do something with it too but on the other hand, my 2012 Toyota sequoia with an automatic transfer case is the same way lol. It'll blink and blink and sometimes it just takes some TLC to get it to go into 4wd. My dads ram TRX goes into 4wd instantly lol.
When going into 4hi, you just need to be moving so things can engage. Sitting still, like Andre did on his 4hi shift, was his issue. My 2013 clicks into and out of 4hi perfectly as have all my Toyotas. 4lo you do when stopped and in neutral, of course, and same thing; right in and out, but many go from 2 wheel drive straight into 4lo. You want to be in 4hi before stopping and shifting into neural and initiation 4lo. I am also in 4hi and 4lo almost every weekend (driving in the mountains) which is good for the actuators. Another tip for 4x4 owners; shift into 4 hi and 4lo at least once a month even if for a short, straight parking lot drive of 50 feet. People that only shift their pickups into 4x4 once or twice a year a way more likely to have issues long term because the actuators not being used can stick.
The Jurassic park rain 🌧️ makes the video better
Someday GM will put panoramic sunroof panels in the Silverado. The rain was much more subdued in the TuRD. You could hear the rain on the tin roof in Roman's Z.

Dodge power wagon also has a locker in the front (and a winch, and electronic sway bar disconnects)
Do you think that these trucks might take the same amount of time to shift into (with a little movement) 4wd but the Silverado assumes it'll be good once they start driving so they make the light solid right away and the Tundra is actually just being more... transparent?
No, GM has never had the light come on until the 4wd is engaged. It's just a faster engagement and a better design.
