You guys need to buy David some off-road tyres to use. Having one vehicle with road tyres and one with AT’s gives one vehicle an advantage. Yea I know David said there brand new tyres but they’re not off-road. On second thoughts give that trail boss a massive trimming. Get rid of those plastic bumpers front and back. Replace it with decent off-road bars so you can actually do something with it.

@AndrewAMartin 2 года назад

I think David is more concerned with highway performance... That said, maybe get a spare set of wheels with some good BFG KM02s to keep at the ranch and swap on when he's running the course. As for the Trail Boss, new aftermarket steel bumpers would be my first modification for sure. Probably for most buyers though, they'll never take their $70K truck anywhere near a trail...

@@AndrewAMartin yea that's why I said " You guys need to buy David some off-road tyres." I agree with you. Most buyer's will never use it for what it's built for.

Badging a truck "Trail Boss" should make it trail worthy despite the fact that most of these trucks will be used for roads only. If you go off-road with relatively mild conditions, and you tear the bumper off - even if it's just the facia, you have a road truck, not a trail truck.

@MrSweetHart6976 2 года назад

There are two reasons truck front ends are so big now, and I agree they are getting out of hand. 1) Looks, this is what people want for some reason. 2) It helps them score higher on "pedestrian crash ratings", those bigger front ends spread out impact energy if you were to hit a pedestrian and in theory will do less damage to the person.

@robertolopez9483 2 года назад

Then call it a “pedestrian damage boss” not a “trail boss” am I right

@R777-RLM 2 года назад

Although they look cool, they need to get rid of the so called power dome on the hood. Also, with the hood up on these new trucks, it looks like you'd need a small step ladder to reach the dip stick, etc.

@jaybirdls1 2 года назад

And cooling too. These new trucks are rated for much higher towing weight than before, gotta keep them cool when adding the extra loads.

@backwoodstherapy 2 года назад

Hitting another car, sure. But if you're going over like 20 mph, the size of the front end doesn't really matter if you hit a person. 7,000 lbs going fast is going to obliterate the meat sack, regardless of how it's shaped.

@danielsuszek6405 2 года назад

I actually love that you guys have a really hard off road course. No other reviewers have this. And, I also get that the truck itself is apparently quite capable off road… but the front end design shows a flaw for this type of off roading. I have a 2021 Custom Trailboss 6.2 and the forest off roading in northern Wisconsin mirrors this type of trail. My lack of fog lights on mine and the malleable grey plastic down low has never cracked or shown damage yet. Seems like a aesthetic design problem on the new refresh. Because otherwise I loved how that diesel worked off road.

@jg8263 2 года назад

Amen to that, my dad and I have a 40acre swamp plot in Forest Co, about 20 miles east of Eagle River. This trail boss would never cross our property the way my dad's old Cheyenne did back in the day. Hell, he can't take his current RST Z71 to the back of the property, he has to use a tractor or utv now, it drags since it only has 8 inches of clearance and ridiculously long wheelbase. Modern trucks are not designed for it.

Just landed a 2023 Trail Boss LT with the 3.0L diesel, standard bed, very well equipped. Mine has 7 camera views that provide great awareness over your truck's proximity to surrounding objects. The front tires view and front grille camera save you from jumping in and out of your truck to check front clearance. There's also an overhead view that's great for checking your alignment in a parking space, because the truck's height and long wheelbase make it hard to pull in straight. The torque and sweet sound of the diesel makes it worth the extra cost.

I love these new vs old trucks vids. What I really like is this really sells the value of a kinetic tow rope over static.

I switched to kinetic with my Jeep because I'm often pulling much heavier rigs out of snowy/muddy ditches.

Usually Tim is on the list to get trucks shortly after TFL. I guess we'll see if GM fixes the trail damage before he gets it or just keeps passing it along to the next journalists.
