You should mention that you can option the engine up in all trim levels. For instance, for $395.00 you can get 430 ft/lbs of torque in the Trail Boss.
Thank you for the feedback, appreciate the idea!
Great work! The most comprehensive video I have seen yet.

Helpful, thanks
Thank you! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Thanks needed the dimensions overall good job
Appreciate the kind words. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!
Very informative - thank you. Any plans to do a similar video on the 2023 Canyon options?
Thank you for the feedback! Not currently but if I can find enough supporting assets (pics, vids) I might. Have some others lined up so if I do make one, it may be a bit before I get to it. Thank you for the recommendation, appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Excellent Video
Thank you! Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Great video! Very informative. Interested in a mid-size or 1/2 ton truck to tow a Casita travel trailer (2,900 lbs) 5,000 to 7,500 miles per year. Will also be a daily driver, so thinking about a mid-size. Payload for a topper and camping gear is important. If we go midsize, would like 1,500 lbs of payload or more. As long as the tow capacity is above 5,000 lbs, great; however, impressed with the Colorado’s max tow capacity of 7,700 lbs. I am not brand loyal and am considering all options. I don’t need or want a luxury truck. I want 4wd, but don’t need something like the ZR2 (plus too much of payload penalty). Thank you for your in-depth video.
Thank you for the kind words! Please see my update about trailering for the LT & WT. With the standard engine it is 3500lbs. The optional turbo + will give you the stated 7700lbs. Apologies for that oversight. Appreciate you dropping in commenting!
** Want to thank Mychael Houck for catching this - Trailering for the LT & WT is 3500lbs with the standard engine. 7700lbs is with the optional Turbo + engine. Apologies for the oversight and thanks again Mychael for bringing that to my attention! **
Hey MtnRoadies, first off I wanted to apologize this is WAY overdue. I admit I'm not the biggest truck person so I kept second guessing what should go in. Anyway, here it is! I hope you enjoy the episode and maybe even find it helpful. To you truck people, if you think I left out anything important please let me know so I can add it in the future. Also, let me know what you think about the 2023 Chevy Colorado.
Hi friendo from usa, no body misses the paddle shifters?...Greetings.
Well done video ! Is there an option for an upgraded stereo and power rear sliding window? TIA
Thank you for the kind words and the question. First, yes, there is an optional Bose stereo available for the LT, Z71 and ZR2. Second, no, there is no option for a power rear sliding window. only a manual one is available. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Tem que bomba essas máquinas lindas aqui no Brasil 💪💪
Hi...great video...do you know what version the rent cars are renting?,,,,thank u.
I only found 1 rental company that offered a Colorado (Enterprise) and it looked like an LT model. Not sure when or if they will offer a 2023 model. Thanks for the question, appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Are you going to make an episode on the GMC Canyon? I would love to see it.
I have gotten a few requests for it. I'm looking into it. I have few other episodes lined up so if I can it might be a while. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
I ordered the Z71 right when they were available for order. Pretty much went with every technology package and convenience package they had. Had to get the auto-cruise control. Would have loved to had this video when I first ordered, good content. You know if there is under seat storage in the back row?
Appreciate the kind words. I don't think there is under seat storage for the back row, I couldn't find anything in the specs. I think you'll have to go aftermarket to find something. Thank you dropping in and commenting!
I did the same thing before the web builder was out. I found out when the web builder came out that the black wheel arch moldings are not standard. I will have to add them after the fact.
@@Steven-xj2rf I had them added on my trim but I got a call from the dealer saying that there was some issue with them and will try to add them again later.
@@Tollyman69 Good to know. If I have to add them after the fact I might get Trail Boss moldings instead.
@@sinepari9160 I had ordered mine end of November, baseed on no solid information at all I would expect late February/early March. Might be longer because it has to go to a different location for the spray on bed liner.
Is the front end of the trailboss trim have black plastic front?
Thank you for the question, let me do some checking. If anyone else can answer please chime in.
On what models can you get remote start and heated front seats?
Remote start and heated front seats are available as optional equipment on the LT and Z71. They are both standard on the ZR2. Thanks for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Question on high output engine. Does the increased torque to 430 ft lb negatively impact fuel efficiency compared to say mid output 390 torque ?
Great question! Chevy still has not released EPA rated fuel economy. As soon as they do I will up date the description and pinned comment on this episode. Stay tuned!
For me the trail boss y the best
Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for dropping in and commenting!
I own a 2022 Tacoma TRD Pro. Having some real issues with it.
As soon as the 2023 ZR2 is available to order, I will order one.
My question is, has the interior room increased on these??
I find the Tacoma is just big enough for me. Is the new ZR2 similar in interior size??
On paper the Colorado has half an inch more front headroom then the Tacoma and about the same rear head room as the Tacoma double cab . The Colorado has about 4 inches more rear headroom then the Tacoma access cab.
- The Colorado also has about 3 more inches front legroom then the Tacoma. The Colorado has about 2 inches more rear legroom then the Tacoma double cab and 10 inches more rear legroom then the Tacoma access cab.
- This is based of the 2023 spec sheet for each truck. Hope this helps!
No body mentions that running 18” wheels that the beat you can get is a 17” spare.
Thank you for adding that. I'll take that as a suggestion for future guides. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Are there no leather options for the Colorado?
The WT, LT and Trail Boss have optional Evotex seating which is synthetic leather. The Z71 and the ZR2 can be upgraded to a perforated leather seating option. Thanks for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Do any of these trims have optional Sunroof?
An optional power sunroof is available on the LT, Z71 and ZR2 trims. Thanks for question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Does anyone know what the trail boss with 2.7L HO towing capacity would be?
I think you'll still max out 7700lbs. I think the suspension on the ZR2 is way it loses some capability. If anyone has any thoughts please weigh in! Thanks for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
I ordered the WT trim and upgraded the engine to turbo plus
Congrats! May I ask how else you spec'd it? Color? 2WD/4WD? Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
i did too, on the configurer web site........i'm getting all the power!!!!
@@ninoreeves7702 Congrats!! I'll ask you too, how else you spec'd it? Color? 2WD/4WD? Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
My specs for the chevy colorado 2023 WT is two wheel drive, upgraded to the most powerful motor, package option that adds cruise control, spray in bed liner, and for the color harvest bronze metallic. Price was 33,033. I wasn't interested in going for a higher trim level and add any more options. I didn't want to turn a $30,000 colorado into a $50,000 colorado. If you going to spend that much you mind as well just get the silverado instead.
@@MtnRoads i did a couple , WT and an LT...
Are you going to do a video similar but on a canyon?
You are the second person to ask 👍. I'm looking into it, checking to see if there are enough supporting assets to make a good episode. If there is, it probably be a bit, finishing up an episode now then have at least 1 more in the works. Thank you for the recommendation. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
I'm undecided between the Colorado ZR2 and the Nissan Pro4X , The Nissan has a simplicity that seems like it may be more reliable in the long term, but that chevy also looks good and seems more modern. Gotta make a choice soon. Let me know your opinion between these two trucks.
That a pretty even comparison. On paper Nissans V6 has more payload and trailering capacity by a few hundred lbs even though the ZR2 has more torque and same HP. I agree with you, I think the ZR2 has the better packaging and looks. I really like the ZR2 interior, definitely seems more modern. So I guess it depends what your after, both seem like capable trucks. I dont know how long you can wait, but maybe give it a few months for production to ramp up on the Colorados.. see if any issues come up with them. I will say, the ZR2 is on my list to check out.. I can wait though and I want to see how the new Tacoma turns out..
kept the old frame and improved on it in a few placed moved the front end forward , moved the rear shocks to the hubs , its tried and true , body on frame 2 lockers its a true 4 wheel drive in my opinion , frontier all 4 tires will not move at once . the tranny has been upgraded to fix issues from previous version , the engine they been using from the sierra I would think if it had issues they maybe worked it out
@@mariagiordano3902 Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!
Is there no telescoping steering wheel?
A telescoping steering wheel is an available option in the LT and Z71. It is standard with the ZR2. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Any idea what they did to make the Trail Boss wider then Z71?
My first guess would be the included moldings on the Trail Boss adding that extra width. On paper it says Trail Boss is 1.4 inches wider then the Z71. I think the moldings fit that. Anyone else have any thoughts? Thanks for the question.
@@MtnRoads I think the bodies are the same outside the wheel arch moldings. They mentioned the track is 3 to 3.5 inches wider on Trail Boss and ZR2 then Z71/, LT, and WT. It has been mentioned that the ZR2 has different control arms and I wonder if the Trail Boss and Canyon's get those arms too or do the wheels have different offsets.
It's a wider track, not just a wider body or moldings. Also has a longer wheelbase and shorter overhangs for a better approach and departure angle.
@@Steven-xj2rf That could be, I couldn't find anything in the specs I have to confirm. Wish I had a better answer for you. Thanks for the discussion though, appreciate the all good info!
That ZR2 is sweeeeeet. Let's hope the dealers don't mark em up to 60k.
I'm with you on that! Have my eyes on the ZR2 also. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
When will the production start for chevrolet colorado
According to GM sources today actually! January 25th 2023 was the date they gave for production. Thanks for the question!
Upgraded truck with less rear legroom than before. Yay! Haha 😄
Who cares? I'm not sitting back there
the dealers aren't selling anything... the other day I drove thru a dealership just to look at the inventory and the sales guys were chasing after me as I drove thru slow..... no one is going to pay those prices.... forget it... I bet the floor money is thru the roof right about now... bring the prices below $50K for a loaded colorado and we will talk... I can buy a MB Sprinter for cheaper than a colorado today..
Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for dropping in and commenting!
@ Dixter what are you whining about. Of course you haven't seen these, they just started producing them. And you can find lower trims vertebrae 30-35k.
@@elche1976 I saw them at the state fair... they look good and the prices show it.... way way too much money for a colorado...
Call me old school, but a turbo 4 cylinder is a no go for some of us. Truck looks good, though.
Appreciate your thoughts. What would you prefer out of curiosity? Thanks for dropping in and commenting!
@@MtnRoads A stout V6 similiar to Nissan Frontier.
@@johnjohnston1092 Thank you for the response. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Zr2 or wait for the Tacoma?
I'm going to come back to this after they release the prices for the Tacoma (hopefully soon). Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
nice like that a 4x4 truck is under $40k .. just don't trust tow ratings. one should buy more truck than they need.
Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!
I believe the WT doesn’t have push button start
the 2023 Colorado WT DOES have push button start according to the spec sheet. Use this link (www.chevrolet.com/trucks/colorado/build-and-price/features/trims/table?section=Highlights&styleOne=431445) You can search for push button start. The 2022 WT I think did not have it.
@@MtnRoads that is odd, it does list push button as standard, but then the “Keyless Entry and Start” is listed as not available.
@@phillyboy27534 I see what you mean, I think their wording/description could be better. Sounds like there is push button start, but you cant have a keyfob in your pocket that will unlock the doors just by pulling the handle. Could certainly be worded better.
I do know this about the Colorado is that l wouldn't pay that kind of money for a twin turbo V6 . No way lm paying that for a 4 cylinder
What happen to the diesel engine? You didn’t mention that.
The diesel engine is not available for 2023, the only engine for 2023 is the new 2.7 liter Turbo 4. Thank you for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting.
I thought the new colorado height was 78.8 inches
Chevrolet shares 2 heights, 78.8 inches which is to the top of the antenna on the cab (WT & LT), I think and 70.7 inches (which I used) to the the top of the cab. Should both heights be included in the future (if available)?
Rather have old model v6
No covered from storage compartment/arm rest on the Trail Boss? That is awful
The Trail Boss DOES get a covered front storage compartment. The only trim that gets the uncovered one is the WT. Apologies for any confusion.
a turbo 4 cyl can be fast but wont last long its like taking a lawn more and putting jet fuel in it
Do you have experience or just randomly throwing out your random guesses? The larger Silverado uses it and has gotten good reviews.
In the end, it's the driver and how they treat the engine that determine longevity. Care for it and do regular maintenance, it'll be fine. Abuse it and treat it like a race car and it won't last, like other engines.
@@elche1976 I have read lots of reviews on the issues people have had with the motor all the way to the sales. Silverado's that have this motor don't sell well they tend to sit on sales lot, whereas the models with the other larger motors, they can't keep them on the lot they sell so fast. and yes, over the yrs. I have seen how the larger motors last so much longer even with the same care and treatment. to get the same power out of a smaller motor that a larger motor has, it has to have a more violent explosion in the cylinder, which is harder on the pistons the rings the cylinder walls the valves and even rod bearing. That is why they use turbos on the motors, it compresses the air into the cylinder to create a more compressive (violent) explosion. naturally aspirated motors suck air into the cylinder, as the piston drops it sucks air in with the fuel and there for the explosion is less compressed and its a less violent event. that's why the same motor they are offering will have different horsepower, the motors will all be the same, the difference will be the turbos weather it will be done threw programing or just a more powerful turbo. the ones with the higher horsepower will have more air compressed into the cylinders and have a more violent explosion, and the higher horsepower motors will not last as long and the lower horsepower motor. I am not sure if I was able to explain it well. but that's why I say they won't last as long and won't be as reliable as a naturally aspirated motor because now you are introducing a turbo to the equation which it one more thing that can go wrong with the motor and making it less reliable. Other words something else that can fail and need repair.
@jeffrey johnston I stopped at, I read reviews.
Sure, that's called no experience. The remaining novel, I'm sure was riveting as well.
@@elche1976 if you had read it all you might have learned something, but I know how your kind is. I am sure school was nothing but a free lunch for your kind and a babysitter while your mom cleaned bathrooms an emptied the trash, I am not sure if you can even read this.
@jeffrey johnston no. When you admit you have no experience, you could just as well invent whatever you want. Be an adult and provide links to these reviews. I can make up "reviews as well". Cheers. You may resume your crying now.
Why is the z71 more then the trail boss
I would say think of the Z71 as a luxury version of the Trail Boss. Z71 has more conveniences standard, better interior standard and some better mechanicals too. Trail Boss is a lot more stripped down then the Z71.
@@MtnRoads o ok well i think i would just go with the Lt4x4
@@ms1406 Thanks for the question. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
I'm surprised the bed capacity and tow ratings are so high on the WT and LT. 237HP and 259lb-ft is rather pathetic. Don't think I'd dare tow a 7K lb trailer with that. Looks like the sweet spot would be the Trail boss with a fairly loaded 4X4 going just north of 40K. The ZR 2 will be very pricey and not very capable as a truck. With only a little more then 1K lbs capacity and 6K tow that is about the same as my 2019 Frontier P4X which is based off a F-Alpha design from 2005. Its main purpose of course is off roading. The multimatic suspension is really nice both on and off road.
Appreciate your thoughts. Thank you for dropping in and commenting!
Tow limit on the WT and LT with the smaller output motor is less than 7700 lbs I believe.
@@mychaelhouck2404 You are correct. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I have put an update in my pinned comment. Appreciate you dropping in and commenting!
Not even 35 inches of legroom in the back seat. That's a deal breaker for me. I wish manufacturers would stop trying to force their customers into full size trucks if they want rear seat legroom.
Appreciate your thoughts. Thanks for dropping in and commenting!
@@MtnRoads 40 inches of rear legroom should be standard across the entire industry considering how much a new vehicle cost these days
Nice Truck BUT not worth asking price of all these trim levels. The Price for this truck is ridiculous. But that’s why these vehicles are going up in price theirs at least a few idiots that will pay these ridiculous prices. Nice Truck overall but but the Price will kill the sell of these trucks
Did Chevrolet fix the crappy 8 speed transmission. Chevy doesn't stand behind their vehicles I know I own a 2022 Colorado Z 71 and in cold weather the transmission doesn't operate properly and Chevrolet won't fix it.
It’s too bad gm doesn’t at least give consumers the option for heated seats and a leather wrapped steering wheel in trail boss.
These are all overpriced anyways. You’re paying what full size should be and full size is luxury high end sports car pricing now.
Agreed. That being said, I totally ordered a zr2 a few weeks ago. Waiting for the prices to drop back to “normal” will keep you waiting forever.
the new so called fancy interior will look out dated very fast and most likely wont hold up like the older models
Who has $60k to spend on a Govt Motors subcompact truck in this hyperinflationary Obiden economy?
