Living With the New Chevrolet Silverado ZR2 - Daily Driving an Off Road Pickup (POV Binaural Audio) 

Looked up the price and freaked out when I saw it starting at $71k. Then I checked the Raptor and that starts at $76k. I don’t understand how manufacturers aren’t starting to slash truck prices yet since sales are slowing, these are getting so out of reach.

I’m really impressed with the new interior on the Silverado/Sierra. It’s a huge improvement over the 19-21

great forward visibility. can't wait til one of these fuckin things just rolls right over my brz.

Ahhh that V8 sounds so healthy! I’d recommend also trying the 3.0 Duramax. It’s incredible how great the fuel economy is (close to 30 mpg highway), and the sound is really nice. Pulls reasonably well too. From what I’ve been seeing, much more reliable than the 3.0 V6 diesel Dodge is using.

Id assume the ZR2 is more in line with or comparable to a Tremor and a Rebel, not a Raptor or a TRX.

Got the 2024 trailboss with 6.2 love the truck honestly wouldn’t upgrade in future this truck has it all … nice interior and so fun to drive

Im a chevy guy, but the little squeaks would infuriate me. So that is why in 2015 I bought a Toyota Tundra with the 5.7 V8. After 150k miles, there are still no squeaks or rattles. But I still love Chevy.

I think the squeaks are from the Tourneau covers. At least that's what i've noticed once the covers were put on. Prior to that, no squeaking.

I understand times change and vehicle prices increase. Its just crazy to think a 4 figure note is normal now for a well equipped truck.

ZR2 with the 3.0L Diesel would be my sweet spot.

God the wheel looks so clean I love it

Interior looks waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than the previous model

FYI, I’m pretty sure GM said that the rock sliders can’t actually support the weight of the full truck. TFL placed this truck on a lift and they’re not mounted to the frame.

Could not be more correct about Rhode Island highways

Been to Rhode Island only once, definitely a different vibe. The pizza was good, though! And I could definitely hear that strong northeast accent in a neighborhood I went to!

Looking forward to you comparing it to an F-150. Love the new design here inside, and Ford is just as nice. These trucks are so freaking nice.

Of course GM would incorporate their own infotainment software in lieu of car play 😂

The thing is , The ZR2 will run Baja much more comfortably than a Raptor in Bison trim, you will not be doing more than 100 mph, in the desert and the motor will easily push the truck past that. Its development was on a racing series. Its super capable. Its a better rock crawler than TRX and Raptor thanks to rockers and multi matics

That looks so comfy

Duratracs are definitely on the noisy side, even among other tires in that class. You have to rotate them every 5000 miles if you want to keep the road noise in check. They are horrible if you rotate every 10k. You don't have to turn the headlights on with the touchscreen in the Colorado, they come on automatically. But for if some reason you want to turn the headlights off while driving down the highway, yeah you'll have to search for the screen to turn them off. Not sure why so many people are concerned with having that ability, but it's a weird country these days...

I completely forgot I was watching a video on a truck. The architecture of these homes was enough to distract me towards the end. Especially those windows on that house located on the right side around the 13:35 mark. Must be a Rhode Island thing. Stay classy my friend.

Sucks these things are so expensive

7:34 that’s what she said

I love my refresh z71 Rst the baby Duramax is awesome

I have the Silverado 1500 RS 6.2, it’s a beast, it’s quick, agile, and the MPG is not horrible, unless you have lead foot, my trim level rides really smooth, the ZR2 is going to be harsh, but it will climb a mountain

The Multimatic spool valve shocks are better than Fox shocks. It's the other suspension components Ford uses in the rear that make the difference. There are upsides and downsides to the suspension design for both. They are both very similar but very different trucks. The Raptors have softer springs for the style of offroading it's optimized for. The ZR2's are a bit stiffer so it still does well with payload but it can still run pretty hard off-road. Chad Hall Racing is doing a lot of cool stuff with the Colorado and Silverado ZR2's. GM's recent trucks are one of the better executed products they do these days. It's unfortunate that some 2022-23 6.2's and 5.3's had lifter issues due to a supplier sending them out of spec springs.

Those are the biggest parking spaces I've ever seen, there are narrower B roads here in the Uk!! 😮

Nice drive brother

How big do trucks need to be before we start requiring special licenses for them? Like you mentioned, the lack of visibility is scary. Especially when 90% of these trucks will be grocery-getters and that's it. I love cars but I also think enthusiasts should especially encourage public transit. It will keep the roads clearer for people who want to drive, and give an alternative for those who don't.

I build your 10 speed transmission, I actually install the valves and springs into the valve body's

not ever paying that much for a truck... no way jose

Just wait for the zr2 meteor

These prices will be standard going forward..after covid all downhill, despite the crash coming for most manufacturers they won't lower much more either way

I really would be happy with the Colorado ZR2

It’s not comparative to a Raport\TRX,nor a Tremor. I’d say it’s below Raptor\TRX and above Tremor.

what a great truck man

I have a 2022 LT trail boss refresh, and I am enjoying! But, would have loved to get my hands on a ZR2!

Nice beautiful truck, but really expensive! You'll need to win the lottery to afford these new truck. Expensive.

If you can't see out of the front of your truck sitting in the driver's seat so much so that you need a front camera so that you don't damage public property it might be just become a general safety issue at that point and maybe you shouldn't drive the thing

There saying for 2024 it will have a supercharged v8

Very nice truck!!! The price stop me from buying it I can’t see spending $77k plus a markup at some dealers for a Silverado so I went with the 2023 Ram Laramie 4x4. I don’t plan on being out off roading crazy anyway. But very nice truck to bad the price scares away Chevy fans.

the truck is great. the video explaining the features is great. the part that gets me is when you act like it's ok to be on your phone and drive your truck 😅 maybe set your phone down while you drive? the hood is so tall I can't see a child cross the road in front of me. but if you aren't checking your phone you would see that person.

Higher center of gravity flips easier lol

Little questionable that the forward visibility in these is to the point you need a front camera to not hit a small adult. Trucks have gotten so ridiculous. I love all the utilitarian shit but fuck it's like they want it to kill people.

Biggest thing. Locking differentials

The Silverado needs a supercharger

This truck is bigger than Chinatown Boston.

Btw you don’t park near others. They will door ding you. I park away and walk. 0 door dings in 5 years.

:35 And the Tundra TRD Pro.

If you think Rhode Island drivers are bad, you are free to come here anytime to South Florida and see how much that statement holds up XD

8:10 This coming from a Ma driver... xD

Which Camera Are You used in this video to shoot pov ?

Love from Myanmar ❤

Amazing ❤

Don't like this at all...give me the work truck crew cab with the v8...

Is that a Chevy tri fold cover sir?

Did the truck have rearview digital mirror camera?

I’m going 13 mpg on mine not sure what you’re doing to get 17

@12:38 the song chasing shadows by santigold is seen playing, I listened to it, and Tom, if you see this I really fw your music taste love your content keep it up 🫶

Not that big of a truck. Minesba crew cab regular bed. About 10 inches longer

Can you do a Ford explorer ST

Lol come drive in Jersey Tedward

What’s that cover you got?

Is that your Nintendo Switch underneath the rear seat?

try finding one lol

cars are getting too big man 😞

7:06 It absolutely isn't a mistake, assuming it's half-decent. Do you really want Apple/Google to have a monopoly on in-car entertainment?

Those wheels look so dinky and small compared to the body

ONLY the front bumper water spray hole ----next to the front camera,, THat's it,, that splash hole is worth more than this entire vehicle,, gmc, chevy have a very rigid mind,, stone rock head-----don't want any high tech engine like FORD high power output engine,,

U lost me at $70 something dollars

wheels to small... looks weird

Over the last few months I've noticed that Chevy's TV ads for the Silverado were lackluster to say the least. The ONLY feature they promoted was the fancy tailgate and nothing else! Who is going to buy a truck based on the tailgate having a couple of lame party tricks? lol

U.A.W.

First, uppa tedward Nvm I wasn't first lmao, well played other subs

❤

TOO MANYA PPL HAVING lifter issue. Chevvy won't even help these poor owners. Pretty bad warranty service. Avoid 6.2L

pooper

Third🎉

First

in the center of your tach you have the time and temp. What is that in center of the left side speedo area?
