FIRST Range Test of BEST Road Trip Electric Truck! 

Hi Chevrolet my dads chevey bolt ev front logo fell off is there any replacements for that and sometimes his backup camera doesn't work is all black

great car 👏

Amazing! That too driving on dirt roads, rain and everything!

tell what’s inside we have not forgotten about the furby…😡😡😡 they should have thought about that…

good performance

Why? It's the heaviest ev truck with the largest battery stuffed underneath and that's kinda IT. It doesn't lead in charging time, driving efficiency, cost, power or acceleration, towing, payload capacity etc. 🤔

@@4literv6 it’s got the most range. That is pretty much the most important coming to an ev

@@4literv6 Charging time is still fast peaks to about 377 kW.

Curious if you know @sabathrodriguez, why did they go with electrifying an Avalanche?

how do you make it profitably though? Easy to make vehicles that lose money

Agreed

@@ajvYT i think he needs to hire AI jerry

Agreed.

GM does this with every single one of their vehicles. Down to the economy Bolt. Caddy Lyriq as well. Can't wait to see what the Escalade iQ does.

@futuristic_car_channel Porsche does that with everything not just the Taycan.

Undersell, overdeliver 😉

I didn’t know he said that until I was editing the video and saw that clip. It gave me a pretty good laugh.

I laughed pretty good at that too 😂

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILY maybe you both spend a little bit to long together in that truck😂

Good catch.

Feel free to buy and favor whatever you like. But saying the CT is meh is not a typical reaction.

@@danharold3087 it’s hideous, mediocre real world range, lacks tons of features standard across the entire automotive industry that Tesla refuses to fit (surround 360° camera system, cross traffic detection, no HUD, no ultrasonic parking sensors, etc.), and its interior is highly compromised due to the steeply sloped rear roofline. Also not at all impressed with the stainless body panels. They’re very hard to keep in good appearance and act like a mirror in direct sunlight. Efficiency of the CT is no better than the rest of the EV trucks on the market but it has the smallest battery by a substantial margin and costs 50-80% MORE than what it was supposed to cost.

​@@fields1 Ford's dealership bit Ford in the butt with huge markups and I expect GMC/Chevy dealerships to do the same with this truck. It is a good product. If frequent long range towing is your thing go with the 200 KWh GMC trucks. Yeah the CyberTruck is more than originally priced 4 years ago. Vehicles in general are up 30% over 4 years ago. Tesla is cashing in on the newness and uniqueness of the CT. 3 months in and people are still buying the $20K over list price for the Foundation series. I agree it is a lot of money. Note that they are already making a profit. In time Tesla will be able to price these trucks below the competition because they can make them faster for less money. And the battery is only 123 KWh hour which is enough for most people. Truck tows and hauls more too with the smaller battery.

@@danharold3087 Enough battery for a car, not a truck. We have a Rivian which we love, but we frequently do 1K mile trips, and we also tow frequently. Cybertruck was designed by people in CA who apparently don't drive very far and have tons of DC charging. This is not true for the rest of the US.

It would have more range if it has smaller wheels too

At 70 mph cap unloaded with 2 bodies, it will drop under real use.

​@@123thunderhorsedont forget weather

@@123thunderhorse Yeah I like to take about 30% off of the advertised range when accounting for real world highway driving.

Lol. thank you. I laughed too hard at that.

Don’t make that mistake bro, I’ll go for Tesla all the way I’m just saying💯😂❤️

Yeh right ford guy, don’t lie

This looks like the Avalanche

@susievazquez3167 😂😂 I swear, my whole family has fords and Lincolns

That was a different clip

​@@SolarTechFL That's what it looked like to me

I totally agree. Charging at Tesla Superchargers will be a game changer for this truck! It is built for road trips or truck guy stuff in the mountains towing.

The midgate is great. It is not easy to do as it detracts from the structure of the truck. Also curious how well it holds up to a load of sand.

​​​@@skellington2000I have an avalanche. Bought it because of the midgate. my family uses the midgate here and there. The AV was designed with a massive steel reinforcing bar, the typical Silverado has a bed detached from the cab, adding zero rigidity to the cab, and the cab is barely more than just stamped sheet metal. The Avalanche is more rigid than normal trucks. I've hauled stuff with the bed and midgate open in light rain, mountainous areas, when it was chilly, just have to crank up the heat as long as it's above freezing... Oh yea, and you can buy the work truck version right now, it doesn't have the midgate, or the fancy tailgate. Other planed trim levels will give you a choice as well. Probably a pricey option

They made an electric Avalanche, Chev and caddy produced a modified suburban with the midgate. This one is better because of the 60/40 split, so you have get partial use of the bed while having one or two passengers

Thanks Jon!

Fun fact: when America heard that the London bridge was for sale, they truly thought it was the tower bridge

Wait....🤔

He has one more summer of junior golf and I like where his game is rn.

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILY can't wait to follow along on Golfstat, give us an update if he wins state or something big 👍 🔥take care

I really do enjoy filming fun experiences with a co-pilot. Had it for years with Lincoln, fun when Zach is around.

Glad you like them!

Doing a collaboration on the same trip as a tricky thing. I wanted Zach to have something in his video that he could go in depth on that is different than my video so I focused on the fun and range. Also, Chevrolet would not let me give any drive impressions. Those are strictly limited until next month when they let all press and media review the car. it’s not an easy thing to navigate sometimes for videos but considering all of that I think the video turned out pretty good.

Oh, I’m so sorry I didn’t know that. I’ll remove this comment if you like as I honestly and incorrectly thought you were just doing a joke style video. Again mate, if you’d like I’ll take this comment away. Again, I really do love your RU-vid channels. So sorry mate, I feel terrible.

Thanks for watching! No need to delete your comment. I’m sure if you had these thoughts, others would also.

⁠That’s amazing mate, apologies again and thank you. Appreciate your responsiveness, understanding and patience with silly people like me. It must be so tiring. Thank you again. 😊

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILY oh and if you want to pick on me in your next video you have my permission 😂😂

That "Something" ... is just a different arrangement in the same battery cells. Nothing advanced, nothing new, nothing impressive. Just a new marketing name for something completely standard and ordinary.

This was even filmed before the boat incident last week.

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILYDang

@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILYDang

Hash. Awesome!

Thank you! It’s one of my favorite videos.

Yeah sometimes the algorithm is not on my side. But I’ll keep making videos I love and hope there is cool people like you that subscribe and enjoy:)

​@@WHATSINSIDEFAMILYi see your video on subscriber list on not on feed

Do you like the Silverado Avalanche?

Thank you!

It really is good looking.

smart.

Fairly sure you can say the same of the other electric trucks in comparison to a powerwall. The gals at transport evolved had significant problem with getting the Ford V2H working reliably. Ford used a 3rd party. I have no ideas about the Rivian. Fairly sure the Tesla is a plug and play if you already have a powerwall. It would be a win if Tesla made the range extender so it could be EASILY hooked directly to the powerwall. Think of it moving under its own power from the box to a rack. Yeah I am dreaming but it is not difficult.

​@@danharold3087 For Tesla, capability is there with the Cybertruck. There's just one device that is sold separately to connect to house wiring. Tesla is dragging their feet with V2G capability because they simply want people to buy the xpensive Powerwalls. But yeah, for people with more than enough money for these trucks, cheap and quick way for massive backup power.

@@zodiacfml By one device do you mean the CyberTruck? If so yes. And yes I agree that they should have had it on their cars long ago. But we were talking trucks here. It was difficult to build the line to handle the stainless but now that it is working it is a much shorter production line and they are popping out a truck every 45 seconds or so. It will be interesting to see the CyberTruck price drop over time.

@@zodiacfml Maybe a 2nd reply to you comment. "If a home already has a Powerwall and Wall Connector, no additional equipment is needed to use Powershare. However, if a home doesn't have a Powerwall, additional equipment is required." "No, not all Powerwalls have wall connectors. If your Powerwall doesn't provide whole home backup, the Wall Connector is usually located on your essential loads sub panel. This feature works the same for owners with an off-grid Powerwall." So it looks like people with powerwall whole home backup are ready to go. Otherwise the connector is about $500.

Yes. I’m not allowed to talk about it for another month tho.
