    Great video... I have a 24 GMC Canyon AT4X and love the truck. I just road tripped the Canyon to Vegas. To LV- 17.5 mpg / back to home -18mpg all traveling around 80mph on the highway.

      That’s pretty solid, I’m not looking for anything crazy, but I thought a loss of 10 miles per gallon was a little excessive

    I’m getting around 20 miles a gallon in my 2024 ZR2 which is pretty damn good and way better than my 2017 Tacoma that was lifted! And yes, I did not need to lift my ZR2 anymore. It’s still factory! And I love it!

      Yeah, I probably should’ve went with that or waited for the production to start lol not sure if it’s worth switching at this point with rates so high

    AEV snorkel, magnaflow overland exhaust, and 17" method wheels should give you back few mpg. Don't do it if you're planning to move to a ZR2, and just save it for that. Which I fully support the ZR2 move.

    Bro... Toyo Open Country M/Ts is what you should be running. Had those on my Gladiator and they last a long time.

      Yeah, definitely a learning lesson, they are great tire but wearing quickly

    I purchased the Z71 as I do very little off-roading and for the led headlights. I installed a 1” lift with 275/65R18 all terrain tires and my mileage didn’t even drop 1 mpg.

    I have had my Trail boss for over a year. I have 21,000 miles with no upgrades. I get about 400 miles on a tank of gas. I couldn't be happier when I compare it to my brothers Tacoma. I think your truck is awesome but unless you off road I would keep the stock tires. 32 inch tires are fine for a random powerline.
    My biggest hold up is the lack of options like a selectable rear locker. I will probably never off road seriously so Chevy is probably right that the mechanical diff is fine as I don't think most people off road much. I, however, would have happily paid for that option just to have it. I also found it ridiculous that they don't offer interior upgrades like leather and heated seats like the z71 and ZR2.
    I am thinking about 275 BFG KO3s when I replace the tires. Do I need the lift that you have done just to fit them comfortably if I'm not planning on off-roading? Awesome channel and thanks for your videos.

    Reference the roof issues...yes for whatever reason Chevy didn't put any roof supports in. Luckily, I hadn't had any roof damage related to going thru the car wash, but you could hear the roof "popping" as you exited the wash. I have had the TSB performed & it seems to have helped with the "popping" noise. Hendrick installed roof stabilizers. I too can't understand how they overlooked that.

      Yeah, it’s crazy on the 23 model and 24. They didn’t have a solid fix.
