HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 апр 2021
- Emissions problems? Tranny issues? Was the truck worth it? Should you choose the diesel option? I go over my trials and tribulations with this truck as well as the mods done to it (some I regret). Parts and tools used listed below:

I traded in my 19 zr2 duramax two weeks ago for a widebody challenger because it's getting harder on emmisons trying to delete. I miss it and gotta say I'll keep watching the awesome content and be safe everyone.
Nothing wrong with a wide body muscle car! Thanks!
I came here after seeing your other Silverado video. Sounds like you do quite a bit of mods on your channel. That’s very cool!
Thanks! Yea that's what the channel is all about, me tinkering with many different vehicles.
Looking to get a mid size truck soon and I’m loving the look of the Zr2! I want it as a daily driver and off roading (when I ever do go) but I do plan on doing that in the future.
Daily + off roading = ZR2 for sure!
I have an 18 ZR2 3.6 and love it. No regrets whatsoever. I have a cat back exhaust, CAI, and Trifecta tune. My next thing I have planned is the leveling kit. You will absolutely want to get the Trifecta tune. It’s crazy how much of a difference it makes. Good luck, and hopefully you will be a new ZR2 owner!
Your reaction at the end made me laugh. I felt that I would have been furious.
Love my 2019 Bison, about to hit 36,000 miles, going to bring it in for one last go through at the dealer next week , no issues with the duramax so far.
Nice! Hoping my lasts that long without issues!
Videos are great too but I like how down to earth you are.
Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Professional workmanship
Why thank you!
Loved you video! Just got a 2021 Zr2 diesel., any more info on the “tuning”... how much did it cost and what specifics if any did you ask for.. thanks!
Sweet setup- If I could recommend anything mod wise it would be the Timbren active off road bump stops- super comfy even if you don’t off road a lot. Really compliment the multimatics, and potholes aren’t nearly as rough.
Ya know I was really looking at those. I may just get them! What website did you order from?
@@matt13ross Summit racing. Additionally I did get new U- bolts and nuts for the rear.
Does it require new U bolts?
@@matt13ross no, the kit says it just use the old ones, however safety wise just saying I replaced mine, mixed opinions on that depending who you ask.
Awsome looking zr2 man. My first truck, and still my favorite was a 00 Sonoma zr2. 6 inch suspension, 2 inch body on 35's. Was a very capable truck. Had tons of fun in that thing.
I had an S10 ZR2 5 speed back in the day. It had a bunch of problems and rust but I beat the sh!t out of it lol
Back in 1999 I owned a chevy S10 zr2. That was one tough 4x4 truck. But the next year my daughter came about so I traded in the truck as a baby seat wouldn't fit on the rear jump seats! That truck easily went along in a huge 10 to 12" deep snowfall that we received in janurary of 2000 in richmond,va. Loved the truck,but man that 4.6L vortex engine was a gas guzzler. It was in that beautiful pewter color with gray cloth interior.
I still drive a 2006 Canyon with the inline 5 engine as a work truck.... it still runs great
I love my kenda klever R/T's good choice.
I'm loving them too!
Bronze on silver is the best! Did the same to my trailblazer 😍
So glad I waited for bronze!
Switchpros 9100 for the lighting control for sure. It fits nicely in that dumb hole just below the hazards. Also the main power unit tucks nicely in the driver fender area under the plastic in the gap...
Thanks for the tip! So many options I'm looking at for switches. I'll most likely get front and rear bumpers first though.
Nicest looking Colorado I’ve ever seen!
Thanks!
I have the GMC Denali version of this truck in the turbo diesel option and I absolutely love it !! It gets 40 mpg on the highway too ( but lacks the big zr2 tires)
I loved mine!
Pretty truck man
Literally because of this channel I bought my z71 duramax colorado, all I can say is this truck is fun, pretty nice inside, and it's so cool to have a little smoker like this.
Nice! Any mods done yet?
AEV does great work with these, and not just the Bison upgrade. You can one to them and they’ll put 35’s under it, regear it, winch, other cool stuff. I’d love to have them build me one and then run a tune on it.
True but man they charge a lot for it!
Hello there! Nice ZR2. I own one myself, it’s my second, the first was a 2016 Ext Cab 4x4, Z71,4x4, we had leased as the vehicle my wife commuted to work in and we used together for towing a 21’ travel trailer, to look at different areas in preparation for the both of us to retire. After retirement we moved to a beautiful place in central Florida, that while it was being built, we traveled for 4 months all over the south, from Key West to Corpus Christi TX. After we moved in we got all settled down an decided if we were going to have just one vehicle, a Crew Cab would be better than the Ext Cab. So now we have a 2019 Colorado Crew Cab 4x4, WT this time to buy at the lowest price I could find, with equipment we only needed. The only thing I miss? Is the better projection headlights, but I installed MORIMOTO 2STROKE H11 low beams and TorchBeam 9005 LED’s in that made a huge difference! But mine are gas powered! I don’t want the hassles that diesel have. Plus the gas trucks are faster, plus now I have a bigger travel trailer, a 26’ 4,500-6,400 lbs unit, that V6 tows with ease. I will admit a full size or especially HD trucks would tow better in windy conditions, but I can comfortably maintain the speed limits, with passing still possible. The diesel I test drove was fine, actually great from a dead stop, but after 3,000 rpm’s looses its breath or something. But the V6 is just waking up! Yes on a trip up north, running up through the mountains and hills in N. Carolina, VA, TN, PA, to maintain the speed limits I was forced to use 4-5 gears, at 3,000-4,000 rpm’s to maintain the speed limits, but even then I’m just using 1/4 of the gas pedal! Mileage is the only difference! Where I get 17-20 city and 22-26 highway, the diesel will get more, like 20-24 city an 26-30 highway? The real deal killer for me though is the very expensive exhaust system an regeneration system that are a legal must. Even though I’m in Florida, without inspections or emissions tests. Where I see diesels in all kinds of tune.
The diesel certainly lacks speed lol. The V6 8 speed tows just as well I've heard, possibly even better.
@@matt13ross mine is all stock and tow just fine. I’ve been as heavy as 11,460lbs CGVW on a Cat Scale, that was actually fine! Absolutely maintained the speed limits on long interstate grades. Just at twice the rpm’s a diesel will. But with more left if needed for passing.
I would have never thought the bronze and silver would go together . But dam it definitely works 🤘🏻 other then that I feel like this whole video was talking about doing other videos . Either way nice truck 🤘🏻
Thanks! Love the bronze, have some coming for my Silverado ZR2.
@@matt13ross I absolutely LOVE the ZR2 Diesel ! I was just looking at the 2022 a few days ago . I would have driven it away that day but I just couldn’t . There’s 1 thing stopping me and that’s knowing the new 2023 Ford Ranger Raptor is finally coming ! Have you checked those out yet ? So badass
Yea those are cooler than the Colorado for sure lol
Sick bro
Thanks!
Which tune did you go with? Are you happy with it?
What tune did you go with? Can't seem to find that information anywhere in your videos. Thanks!
Enjoy your videos. If you're looking to do something else to the Colorado, I'd love to see what a larger turbo would look like on these. Keep up the good work.
I want a bigger turbo for sure. A lot of obstacles though, tuning and transmission are the first hurdles. Then fuel and the rods.
@@matt13ross dude.... You put and LS1 in a BMW. How's a little turbo going to challenge you? LoL, maybe one day I guess.
Lmao, true story. I know a lot more about the LS E36 than this truck.
Well throw an LS3 and 10spd in it. Boom, 480hp, 25mpg. Done.
Great overview I’d love to see a bigger turbo also possibly what point will you need a bigger fuel pump like an inline pusher set up to keep the volume? Maybe not needed at some point I gotta mod mine but California is afraid of soot covered leaves....👍
The problem is, a bigger turbo and more power would lead to the motor needed built. Apparently the rods are NOT very strong lol.
@@matt13ross I can't remember the fellow, but the diesel that's been ls swapped(had a lightneen mcqueen wrap at one point) had twin turbos. The engine blew up. So something to keep in mind.
Yea that's what I'm worried about. Don't want to make the truck unreliable.
I have the AEV trim kit sitting in my garage and I've been so torn about doing it. Gonna look into how 420 motors trimmed.
Yea check out the 420 mod, I think it's much cleaner.
@@matt13ross Looked for the 420 mod ... Can't find it. Have a link?
@@id_unknownsoldier821 Here ya go. ruclips.net/video/Y-gwzHlUuFc/видео.html
Might sound like a dumb question but would the AEV Trim Kit void dealer warranty? Thanks Love your vids and the truck!
Thanks! I don't think it would, but everyone always says it depends on the dealer. You could always ask your dealership and see what they say.
The "RAPtard" lights look great man lol
That's a new name for them lol
Nice video dude! I’m in the same situation as you with my wheels and tires. New tpms installed in my method 701’s and they won’t even link to the truck. Oem sensors still link up perfectly. If you figure out what the issue is please let me know!
Mr. Wheel Deal ended up sending me a new TPMS, however it didn't work. So they sent 2 more and they worked. So all is well now!
As it's centrifugal force that turns on the sensor if the aftermarket wheel holds the sensor at a different angle that can cause the issue
Simply Clean! Nice!!!
Thanks! OEM + is the goal
@@matt13ross More vids of this rig man.
Little behind but have plenty more mods and vids coming!
Looks like Proclip USA only makes the dumb mounts that cover the AC vents now. Any idea where I might be able to get one like yours??
Yea I have no idea why they stopped making the one I have.
Nice looking ZR2. Bring it here to Moab and do the Hell's Revenge Trail. Our stock diesel ZR2 did it no problem. It was a blast.
I'd love to take it to Utah! Actually considering a trip there in the fall.
Do you have to install a diff drop? I just purchased a 1 inch leveling kit and was told by 4 wheel parts and 589 fab a diff drop is only needed over 2 inches
You don't have to, but it's a cheap and easy way to help your CV angles.
Did you received the updated iDash Pod from ADP? Apparently they are reshipping those...
Nope, not yet. I was told that as well
Hey man if you don’t mind what’s the height and width of those kendas? I have the 33x10.5r17’s and wanted to see how they compare, thanks!
I haven’t measured but they’re 285/70/17
I have a question for you? Have you had the engine light come on do to a code p228c low fuel pressure. Or anyone who watches your channel. I have a 2021 GMC Canyon with the Duramax The engine light come on while sitting in traffic. And noticed my oil pressure has down in the low teens. I called my dealer and he said about a month ago another customer had the same thing happen. Thanks
No sorry! Nothing like that has happened to me
Did you adjust your odometer/speedometer for the taller tires? Just curious if that gas mileage is actual
Yes the tune was adjusted
Hey Matt, I like the look of your rig. I have a question for you, at about 2:38 into the video you zoom in on part of your dash cluster and I noticed there are two differential locker buttons. Is that both front and rear locker? Is that on ALL TRD's? or is that another level trim package?
TRD? You mean ZR2? Yes they come with front and rear lockers.
@@matt13ross LOL yes I did mean the ZR2, I've been watching so many videos and research I got a little mixed up. Thanks for the response.
…. Wow
Alright @MattRoss13, the 2023 Colorado ZR2 just announced, kick ass interior, you gonna upgrade?
I made a video about that.
My factory rubber mats are curling badly. Not sure why. Same model and year as yours. Love the truck though. Love your mods! Truck is very clean. I have 41k on mine and I’ve never washed it! Lol. It gets dirty so often, I just power wash it every week. 😁👊
I've never had factory ones curl, I hope mine don't! Thanks! Get that thing washed! lol
Hey looking to buy a Duramax 2021 zr2, apprehensive of the low power of the 4 cylinder so immediately looking to get a tune. Did your dealership ask any questions about your tune when they replaced the fuel pump fuse?
That was before the vehicle was modified.
@@matt13ross shoot! Haha thanks for the response I appreciate it! Love the zr2 content very informative!
🙏 thanks!
Those lights look sick, my wife would have kicked my ass popping them in the oven like you did. How do you feel about your air intake? I'm thinking about one in the future if I'm bored kinda on the fence. Next small upgrade I'm planning is an actual dipstick for the transmission that routes to the engine bay (a sight plug for an auto transmission WHY GM WHY!)
Have to bake them in secret lol. Intake doesn't do anything but add noise IMO. The only reason I added one is because I got a good deal on a used one.
How do you like the diesel? I’ve heard that the diesel is really sluggish and unresponsive which is why some people get the gas version. I guess it depends on what you need it for?
It's definitely slow, but with a little bit of tuning and exhaust work, it opens up. Mine has about as much pep as a 5.3 V8, so it's not too bad. Plus 30 mpg highway. I'd never get the V6.
Rausch creek is where I ride dirtbikes! Sweet place ! Dope truck too
Nice! I have only been there once so I know there is a bunch more to explore. Thanks!
You keep putting her in your videos you will be getting millions of sacribers
That’s what I thought but hasn’t happened yet lol
More more more ha ha 😂
Nice video man! What was your stock mpg before the tune?
Hrm, man it's been a bit. I think I did a video on it. I think it went up around 20%.
@@matt13ross hahahah all good I’ll poke around your channel and check out the videos thanks for replying 👍🏼
What brand are the rims and tire size, I’ve been looking for good rims and perfect size of tires for my Colorado
I have them linked. Method Race Wheels 17X8 with 33s.
“I need to wash my truck” wife washes truck. You got to teach me how to do that.
I need those led lights for my truck
Where I can get them 🙏🙏🙏
I’m thinking of buying a 2022 Colorado ZR2 w/ the Diesel before they are gone for good! In your estimation is the 2.8 diesel a reliable and durable engine for the long haul? Is it pretty much a trouble free daily driver engine? Thanks for any help.
It was very reliable for me, but I didn't have many miles on it.
Make sure you research the torque converter/transmission issues before you buy.
Nice brother I own duramax 2018. I love the headlights were I can get them?
Check out my other videos. I built them! Lot of work though
Any specific forums you use for info? I’ve found a few but not super common for customization like yours
Nothing specific, just some Google searching. They aren’t very common. Facebook groups can be helpful.
Anyway you could point me in the direction of delete and tune you had? I'm about to pick on up and that's first on my list
We don't say the "d" word anymore BUT that company is no longer around.
What tuner do you use?
What size tires and rims are those ? Great videos 👍🏼
17s and 33s.
Mishimoto headlight parts 😂. Think you're getting the BMW swap parts mixed in with the truck build lol
LMAO Morimoto / Mishimoto, whoops lol. All the parts just blend together
So what is your avg mpg now? Would you still buy a diesel over gas at this point with the way prices are? Diesel being $1 more than gas, have you done any delete at all?
I just sold (traded) the truck a few weeks ago. My average was 24 mpg combined, tuned. Over 30 on the highway. No way I'd get one of these in a V6. Cut the fuel mileage almost in half.
@@matt13ross what did you get if you don't mind me asking. Thank you sir. My mom has a 19 GMC canyon gas and I was avg 22 with hers yesterday.But I didn't know if these would be worth it with the damn diesel. Thanks again
Around 39K via a trade for a beat up yellow Porsche lol (on my channel).
I would go with a re-gear. It would help your fuel economy and also make it feel a bit punchier.
If I get 35s I'll re-gear, until then, stock is fine for me.
@@matt13ross I agree. If it's working just fine as it is, why mess with it?
I just bought a ‘19 ZR2 and I’m not getting a def/egr delete in 2 weeks nor am I doing a tune with a straight pipe. No, I love and adore the EPA. I don’t want better fuel mileage nor more power 🤣 Great series on the zr2 my man (yea, I’m assuming your gender). And that Bose stereo is actually pretty damn nice.
😂 accurate. And yes I’m a man 😆. Bose stereo needs a sub though
@@matt13ross I was coming here to comment on suggesting the kicker sub install.
Kicker will blend into the bose, and not stznd out for bass
Where to install? Anyone make a box to fit the Colorado?
@@matt13ross yes there is a box that can fit 2 tens, just cant remember the name, im running to tens
here for the tuls
Talking about headlights, and this doesn’t pertain, but I had a 1984 Honda Accord hatchback with 4 glass halogen headlights, factory, and they were unbelievable for distance and area. I think good lighting should be required regardless of trim level.
You’d think in 2020 that every vehicle would have excellent lighting compared to the 80s!
Nice truck how do those small Duramax run? Wait till you drive a deleted tuned 6.6 dmax. I love my efi live
Also, I just watched you video where you talked about the fuse issue on the pump.. those are designed to blow a fuse at a certain amperage so you don’t Over amp the pump and burn it out. If you went bigger you might run into problems might not if u do take the fuse out before u take it back so they don’t void your warranty lol. Good luck badass dmax love em
I used to have an LB7 lol. These run good, slow but 30+ mpg.
2018 gmc denali duramax; def want to see a review on the catch can thinking about adding one truck is still all stock
I do need to open it up soon.....
Just add one. It is well worth the money. I’ve got about 10k miles since putting mine on and it’s crazy how much it collects. Without one all that crap goes straight into your turbo
I have a catch can, I just didn't open it up and see what it has collected so far.
@@matt13ross yea sorry that was directed towards OP. Thought it was replying to his comment
I have the 2.8 Duramax and love it. I have the egr deleted and it runs and performs better... i still used the stupid def fluid, but i also retuned the transmission because i felt it reved too high... 1st gear was fine but 2nd, 3rd and 4th were high... i got a few extra mpgs with these tunes and egr block.
The only thing i don't like is the stupid interference timing belt design..... oh well i will have to change the timing belt soon which should be fun lol
You must have a bunch of miles if you’re thinking about the timing belt lol
@@matt13ross ive got a 2016 with 153000 miles.... I use it for a lawn buisness and uber. with the egr delete and trans tumer i get 700 miles on a tank
That’s the perfect vehicle for both!
I worked as service/parts at a shop that took care of the local FedEx fleet. The 2.8 powered vans were my absolute favorite, never had to find any engine parts but oil/fuel filters. I have an '04 Silverado 1500 Z71 with 276,000 on it, seriously considering a 2.8/8L90 swap when the time comes.
@@austincook6695 they have a 3.0 straight 6 diesel for the 1500. It's supposed to be a beast and it gets 30mpgs highway
I'm a mechanic and refrigeration tech
It's a no no unless the fuse rated is incorrect....double check b4 you do so
Do they have those headlights for the 2019 canyon duramax?
Should be the same
Does your truck emit any black smoke when accelerating?
A small amount
Historically, the mid-size trucks have noisier cabins than the full size. Is that the case here, or have they made improvements?
Sounds similar inside to full size trucks of the same era I’d say. I’m sure the newer trucks are quieter though.
I have a question for everyone. will the zr2 tires fit my 2018 colorado lt?
Probably with a level.
So sick
Thank you!
@@matt13ross No problem dude keep up the great work, after all you the sickest yet stockish Colorado on RUclips.
Appreciate it man thanks! Def due for some more upgrades though
My stock floor mat on the drivers side did fold, I hate that
My 2019 Deisel ZR2 which I kept for 2 years and 30k miles was a turd. I regretted wasting my hard earned money within the first 2k miles when it stranded me 600 miles from home. It spent more time in the shop than anyother new vehicle I've owned in the past 35 years.
Sold it this past March and got most of my money back and bought a 21 TRD Pro Taco, couldn't be happier.
Welp, hoping I don't have that bad luck. So far I've had little to no issues.
@@matt13ross although I had issues with other items in the truck the biggest issue was all the EPA emissions BS that's part of these new Deisels.
By deleting your rig, you will not encounter those issues, your rig will last much longer and certainly runs better with higher MPGs.
All true!
Does the Bose stereo only come with the Navigation option? Do you know if the non navigation option comes with Bose or not?
Hrm, I think they are separate options. You can always tell if it has Bose by the center speaker above the radio.
@@matt13ross thank you I’ve been looking at getting one. Didn’t know with Apple car play if was a necessary option, but the speakers are a big difference I’m sure
Gotta have my Apple CarPlay! Bose speakers are decent, but nothing spectacular.
@@matt13ross I found a good deal on a 2022 without the nav feature I don’t believe it has boss though
Nav def isn't needed IMO.
I just sold mine for 4K more than I paid for it 6 months ago. The used market is crazy right now. Carmax bought it off me.
Absolutely the market is crazy! And there are no new vehicles out there to buy
Not gonna lie dude. Our trucks are very similar. I picked mine up less than a month after you did. Paid just shy of 38k out the door. Now many of the same mods. Mainly the needed ones as you have done. I have a few left on the list though. Larger turbo being one of them along with the bumpers. It is a toss-up for me between Full CBI or the Relentless Hybrid for the front.
I'm undecided on bumpers too. I want a simple minimalist one front and rear but with room for extra lighting.
@@matt13ross Yep. That is where I am at with these two. Both are pretty low profile and very minimalistic. You mentioned "Stock plus". That is always the goal of my builds.
I may do a rear bumper first to see how I like that look. I was also thinking of having some custom ones made. I do need to keep the hitch received though.
I wonder if the fuel pump fuse has anything to do with the tuning?
Happened before the tuning.
How you liking them Kenda Kleaver RT's ? I Luv Mine'👍👍
I love mine too! Great tire, especially for the price.
@@matt13ross I Agree!
For bulletproof off roading, swap out your HOLLOW aluminum driveshaft for a steel one from GM. Owners have twisted the stock ones like a noodle after hitting a rock underneath. You can also get better upper control arms that allow better wheel travel in front end, also from GM. I enjoy my 2019 and can honestly say it’s like having a Subaru WRX pickup truck. The handling is phenomenal due to the extra 2” width, DSSV shocks and killer torque from the baby Duramax ( Isuzu ) and who can complain about the unbeatable mileage?
Does your offroad mode still work as intended?
Yessir
Can’t wait to hear about how it got almost totaled
It's a secret
My 2018 zr2 extracab has a tuned diesel also. With 32" tires on flat land I get 28mpg. Towing 3k pounds the mileage goes down to between 21 and 23mpg. I run with the Raptors in the desert, they really are no better in the desert than the ZR2. But the Raptors are TOO big for the canyons.
The Raptor has to be way faster in the desert though
@@matt13ross no. 420 motors ZR2 beat both gen Raptors on RUclips. In my opinion they are comparable. Both are excellent on and off road.
Check out screaming diesel performances compound turbo setup they say it runs 100 more hp while maintaining reliability
I would LOVE that!
Looking at getting a 2018 zr2 2.8 tomorrow
Nice! Take it for a drive so you know how slow it is lol.
You should try that sud bottle with a gasser washer, you aint seen shit yet hahahaha
Not sure if C4 Fab makes Colorado bumpers. Of course with the Bison package AEV makes bumpers.
Edit: I clicked on a recommended video and another recommended video showed a Relentless Fab hybrid bumper, so there’s another company.
There's a bunch of bumpers but I don't like a lot of them. Too big and bulky most of the time.
I have a 2017 duramax colorado,love everything about it but.....the storage in the doors are too narrow
Well, it is a small truck lol. Certainly not a ton of storage space.
What’s the new HP and Torque with the tune ?
Around 220 hp 440 tq
I was sold on the Tacoma, but I dont know anymore. Ive heard the new generation has low power and lots of issues unlike the previous gens. Im looking to replace my 2008 Silverado soon and I might go with the diesel Colorado! I just wonder if they will stand the test time? I dont have much faith in GM anymore either
I love my diesel, but I'm positive that a gas powered Silverado would be more reliable. Though my truck has been great, new diesels have many components that can fail compared to a simple gas V8. I wouldn't trade mine for a Silverado though.
I’m a little late, what did you end up buying? I’ve had both a 2018 z71 and now a 20 trd off road. The Colorado is way better as a daily driver than the taco. It’s more comfortable interior and better 4x4 system. The taco might have really good reliability but it’s not really a pleasure to drive from my experience. And the 4x4 has me like what the fuck! Am I even in 4x4 this thing is sliding all over the place in the snow. Just my 2 pennies
@@pagodad8079 I hated the tacoma. My Silverado is much better but it's still annoying to drive with the V4 mode. I'm content with the Silverado but will probably trade it in for the 2023 Colorado.
Just bouht a 2022 silverado rst 3.0 duramax with off road package…is anyone ready with a “emission correction” tune that you know of ?!
Nope, no one makes them for the 3.0.
Yo I have method 701s and 35x12.5r17 kenda kleaver RTs on my Silverado and my sensors absolutely will not sync either... maybe it’s the kendas haha
I certainly hope not lol. 4 out of my 5 currently work, just need to get that 1 fixed.
The manual talks about what to do if you have a TMPS sensor in the spare and how to correct the light.
Which manual? Owners?
@@matt13ross yeah
Thank you I’ll check that out
What is your opinion on the GMC Canyon AT4 Diesel?
I like it! Not as off road oriented as the ZR2, but still a decent little off-road diesel truck.
@@matt13ross Thankyou soo much for getting back to me, I’m from Southern Virginia and I’m looking for a good truck so I can retire my old beat up 2000 Dakota lol. She’s been Tough as a PBR Bull but I can’t keep throwing money into a fire pit. I personally like the GMC set a little more than Chevys but was hoping for more input.
Either truck is fine, the main difference is the ZR2 has a better off road suspension and shocks compared to the AT4.
Where does that model start at price ? Please someone help?
The ZR2 Duramax? Usually around 47k USA
Pushed our trucks to the limit on Drummond Island, broke a CV and had a great time figuring out how to get home. Always a great time out on the trails. Drummond Island is no joke! This was the most difficult trail we have done there to date; Tight Twisties.

Nice!! I'm jealous, I need to find time to hit some trails like that.
Just what I needed to see although it’s 2wks to late. I have only seen 2 Diesel ZR2’s and one was on a lot for $33k. The salesman was sucky is the main reason I walked away from it😔😩
33 sounds cheap!
What time is this? It sounds interesting.
Time?
We want to see a turbo upgrade! Or twins
I know I know, lots of hurdles to make that happen but it's a possibility!
Too the people who don’t want a headache down the line. Get a 2015 and below Tacoma 👌 new ones are good too but the older ones with the 4.0 are where it’s at
They are a solid mid size truck
Maybe plasti dip the truck nardo grey since the wrap failed ?
Problem is that plasti dip is flat or matte.
