2024 Chevy Silverado 1500 Trail Boss LT | $60,000 Base Price?! | Walkaround Review and Test Drive

[@closer2mod]

I have a 22 6.2l with leather, bose, and 20" wheels and it was almost 10k less bought during the whole covid BS. that is crazy pricing on a 5.3 without as many options.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

You have a SWEET ride and you got it for a great price. If it doesn’t have too many miles on it, I would definitely hang onto it. The 6.2L is a lot more fun behind the wheel than the 5.3L. Thank you for watching!

[@jrod237]

Great content 👍🏼a buddy of mine has one of these, really cool camera views & flex tailgate.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

Thank you for the kind words J! I appreciate it! I actually thought about finding a scrap yard that had one of those flex tailgates in stock and having it repainted to add to my truck but I thought then maybe it wouldn't work right on my truck since it wasn't optioned from factory. 😂 Oh well. Thanks again for watching!

[@freenwl]

Finally 😊 someone did add new information this time ❤❤❤ thank you sir!

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

No problem! I’m glad I could provide some info, thank you for watching!

[@jameswalsh6131]

Hey Calm great video and review! I totally agree with you about the center console and engine choice. That's a really nice truck. Hoping that you are doing great!

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

The 5.3L is the perfect engine for this truck! I don’t know if I’d go for the Trail Boss myself. For this kind of money, I’d rather pony up a few extra grand and grab a 5-10k mile Gen 3 Raptor, even if it’s not the most reliable truck on the market, it’s too pretty to hate! 😂 I’m doing good so far, week has treated me okay so far, only a couple days of work left and then time off! Enjoy the weekend brother! Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@jameswalsh6131]

I hear you! The Raptor is pretty amazing. Personally I doubt I will buy new again. You just save so much $$ going with something just a few years old. Time off is always great Cal! Your videos are awesome and enjoy the rest of your day!@@CEALLIFORNIA

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

@@jameswalsh6131 I always love to buy used. So many good deals to be had in the used market, it’s crazy, but most folks will never know! Got one more day til I’m home free! 😂

[@jameswalsh6131]

Totally agreed! Yaaay one more day to freedom! Awesome Cal! Enjoy your time off!@@CEALLIFORNIA

I have a blue trail boss. It's kind of weird seeing so many people review blue ones but I never see any in person 😂

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

The blue’s stay on the lot a little longer than the neutral colors, not a lot of people brave enough to rock a colored vehicle nowadays for some reason. Personally I love the blue on this TB! I think it’s THE color to get. My own Silverado is Northsky Blue. Thank you for watching!

[@tombryant4518]

You can get the longer 6’6” bed as well as the short one. Not stuck with the short bed because it’s a Trail Boss.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

I don’t see many configured like that but I sure would like too! Can’t imagine having less space than the 6’6” myself. Thank you for watching!

[@tombryant4518]

Here in Alberta, lots of us oil patch workers use them. Need the longer box to fit a quad in there. Don’t see many of the short ones up here. It’s neat how the demographics change how things are set up.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

@tombryant4518 That’s all I see down here in the states! Seeing a long bed, is sort of like seeing a Ferrari, you have to do a double take of the beauty. 😂 The ultimate truck is the F250/F350 Crew Cab with the 8 foot box!

[@tombryant4518]

@@CEALLIFORNIAYa, lots of those up here as well.

You got that right, even most Raptors or TRX’s never see dirt. Thank you for watching!

Nice truck but 60k is way too much

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

I agree, I think $60k is too much for what you get in this truck. Thank you for watching!

@@nahbro3240 Once that sales tax and 6.5-8% interest hits, the payments will be out of reach 😂

@@nahbro3240 CAD always confuses me if I’m late night searching on JamesEdition. Sometimes I’m like wait, why is this Lamborghini 33% more expensive, and then it clicks and I realize where it’s for sale 😂

[@LeeRybinski]

That cover wasn’t installed right….the foam pads shouldn’t have been put on the outside of the cover……i just installed 1 this week! It pays to read the instructions!

[@mattm1686]

you can get the 3.0 L Duramax!

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

I just drove the 3.0L Duramax in the ZR2 and I absolutely loved it. Beast of engine, a blast behind the wheel! Thank you for watching!

[@in2flying]

Spot on with that engine being long in the tooth.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

Glad I’m not the only one that thinks so. Like it does it’s job, but it’s not particularly exciting, doesn’t put a smile on my face like the 3.5L EcoBoost, I think my opinion may be a tad bit biased lol. Thank you for watching!

[@adammcwilliams2803]

But that is an LT! Are you missing a tire lug nut?

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

It's a lug nut they use during transport to prevent anyone from stealing the rims, it gets removed when someone buys the truck. Thank you for watching!

[@nemesis656]

60k and cloth seats give me a break 😂

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

That’s what I’m saying man, $60k there better be some leather and a sunroof. 😂 I guess I’m asking for too much. The truck I described is $80k. Thank you for watching!

Brand new truck and they can’t even get all the right lug nuts on it.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

These I think are the locking lug nuts for transport, but I agree they're hideous!

[@SS-wm1wy]

Gloss black plastic does not belong on any vehicle, let alone an off road truck.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

You’re right about that! While it is pretty for a pavement princess, any off roading will surely show “pinstripes” very soon on that black paint. Thank you for watching!

[@derekgilbert2884]

It sad GM charge you for Trail Boss Vega with 2.7 engine turbo that sucks poor quality. Is not worth $66,650. Is big joke 😅😅😅😅 it means GM going backwards bring 70's back with 8 track stereo systems music ABBA and Bee Gee Disco 🕺 music. 😅😅😅😅

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

This one had the 5.3L V8, it is a $1,795 option to get the 5.3L unfortunately. I do have to say I thought $66k was a bit too much for this truck. I was expecting around $60k. But that Toneau value package tacked on a lot of money. Without that, the price may have been slightly more tolerable.

[@davidporter7051]

can you speak English? As a whole the 2.7 is the most reliable GM truck engine.

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

@@davidporter7051 At this point in the game, I have more faith in the 2.7L than I do the 5.3L.

[@davidporter7051]

@@CEALLIFORNIA both are well above industry averages in terms of reliability

[@CEALLIFORNIA]

@davidporter7051 I would take Ford’s lower output 3.5L over Chevy’s 5.3L, but I’m a little biased lol.

[@aimee-rawfireliving1083]

Nice truck, but $60,000 is nuts for any vehicle. IMO 😅
