He put a Fireplace in his Chevy Colorado Bison?!

We caught up with Rin of OK4WD at Overland Expo East for an overland vehicle walkaround of his 2019 Colorado ZR2 Bison. Lots of truck camper customizations including a sailboat fireplace for heating!

[@jakecollard8914]

This is the coolest overland setup I think I've ever seen!

[@sweetlogo]

Dudes really well spoken.

[@colinmccarthy2698]

Possibly the best Overland setup I've seen so far. So glad to see it built on a ZR2 rather than a typical boring Tacoma.

[@casper24ism]

@uPredict yes like a tacoma has never had issues.paleez!

[@casper24ism]

@uPredict look if owned 2 and 2 4runners.they have their own issues,like if your a normal size guy you have to duck your head to even get in it,it gets terrible gas mileage, and it's boring looking..

[@casper24ism]

@uPredict I'm 6 ft I totally had to duck my head to get in.i get it tacoma is a good truck but it is night and day difference with power and handling compared to a zr2.and in my opinion the zr2 is 1000 percent better looking my wife has a 2019 jeep grand cherokee,I cant get in it either. If your 6 ft or talat tacoma is too small I have friends 6 ft 3 that have colorados,they cant even get into a tacoma.

[@casper24ism]

@uPredict jeff aka loltrd is like 6 ft 6 or something he has a zr2

[@casper24ism]

@uPredict no I dont have the bison.i think it's over priced.i hope you test drive both trucks before you buy.like I said I had a tacoma,totally built 4x4 and it was gorgeous but I would never take that tacoma over zr2.test drive one you will see

[@NigelNaughton]

Man, that's beautiful! Well thought out and super functional design.

[@quintenputnam4578]

Never seen a fireplace in a camper, overall great build!!!

[@hawk214mch]

I thought Rin's Jeep was cool. This is a huge step forward! Nice setup that he will definitely put to the test. Thanks for the tour.

[@freedom3594]

Sick setup! As soon as my powerball numbers hit I’m going to do this. Holding my breath. 😆

[@stevenpeterson7234]

That's is an awesome set up!! When I saw fireplace I was set but a propane. I got sad, I was expecting a woodstove fireplace.

[@evante20]

Great! External exhaust for the heater and co alert.

[@christiantorres1426]

Yooo I just saw this rig today Sunday Sept 19, 2021 in downtown Ouray while visiting for a couple days I was walking down main Street and it stuck out I did a little recording on my go pro and when I was going over the footage I decided to type in KZbin, Chevy Colorado Overland and this video popped up this is truly a clean build sweet rig my man. 👍

[@highpro1394]

Best bison build to date!

[@Channel_60]

Rin hooked me up on a shadow awn. So, as far as I'm concerned, he is a legend.

[@Thegoobo]

He's the best in the business.

[@GoProseph]

damn that's a serious build.

[@defender1nation929]

This is sweet. Never saw an overlander setup in a Colorado, typically people use Tacomas but I love this thing.

[@PNW_Bison]

#GOALS So, so good!

[@moondog573]

7.5 feet with just the main portion, thanks, I have been looking for that information all over and it seems to be purposefully omitted by everyone. I really thought it was because the long section wasnt a bed by itself that you had to have both panels down to sleep.

[@leem1914]

Same here. Looking At Vagabond Drifter as the front is open with the bed down. Now I know Alucab can do same. Make heating sleeping area Easy

[@Thegoobo]

My Man Rin...Good people.

[@chuckrf1502]

That is so cool. Love the fireplace. I am subscribing now! From WNC

[@AP-lh1bq]

This is wicked. I just wish they made this for a full size truck.

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

Check out 4Wheel Campers.

[@donrainesthedirectoroffun1033]

I like this. Hope they build one for a Power Wagon. Like your mods. What's new on it? 😎

[@ryanfischer2889]

This is definitely a sweet rig and set up. But along with that I'm sure there was a hefty price tag.

[@koalafan1576]

Dude, take my credit card. I need one ❤

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

Just hit up OK4WD, they can hook you up.

[@strifefraser5102]

Awesome dude

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

Glad you liked it!

[@leem1914]

BRILLIANT 💥

[@rpsulli]

Sick!

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

We thought so!

[@eric69parent]

What kind of mpg you can get on the highway with this set up

[@billstrehl9822]

@Blue Ridge Overland Gear; If you ever get a chance to weigh the vehicle when it is all loaded of with fuel, water, food, gear and people please post that number; with about 1200 pounds to play with in payload I am concerned that if I bought the Alu-Cab gear, which I think looks really well designed, I would need to limit myself to skinny travel partners:-)

[@billstrehl9822]

of course that is assuming you see Rin again

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

Check with OK4WD. It's their rig.

[@billstrehl9822]

@@BlueRidgeOverlandGear ,@OK4WD, Thanks. I left a message on their channel but no response. I watched the video again and it looks like Rin's truck has a gas engine (since I didn't see and Duramax badging) which buys him a big increase in usable payload compared to the diesel. I'm just glad you did the video since I haven't seen it featured elsewhere including OK4WD (which seems like on oversight on their part).

[@rpsulli]

I have the same concern, but peak performance has a rear leaf spring that adds 750lbs to your payload. That's my plan once I save the cash ;)

[@rpsulli]

Let us know, if you get an answer!

[@eric69parent]

What is you average highway mpg with the canopy camper

[@BlueRidgeOverlandGear]

Hey, you can contact Rin at @rinoostdyk on Instagram.

[@kevinm.1698]

Does anyone see where the followup video with the Goose Gear build out is located?

[@Jmisslyn]

did you have to re-route your antenna on your truck to accommodate the camper ?

[@strangeday2]

Can a maxx air fan be put on the roof of the Alu Cab canopy camper?

[@pravur]

Who is making this heater?

[@howardwhitaker1556]

Dickenson. This exact model is the P9000. They also make them that use solid fuels and diesel aswell.

[@mcmxc3794]

Who gets tricked into buying a mid sized chevy or ford ranger when Toyotas still making Tacos. That being said, its got some cool add ons.

[@vocopro100]

People who want diesel and factory front and rear lockers. However for reliability Toyota will always be on top.

[@annon91221]

Hmmm.... I rented one of these from gears of travel for a trip to kootneys with my wife... took grey creek pass to get from east to west kootneys... took old grey creek pass not knowing how hard it was.... I'll tell you this... no production Tacoma would make it to the other end of that pass as easily as the Colorado did... had to use front lockers a few times.. Water crossings there were brutal... was so happy to finally come out the other end of trail.... I keep thinking that if GM was to build all their vehicles like they did with this truck, they would never loose market share... too bad that's not their business philosophy in general though... lol

[@geographyinaction7814]

The dbl cab Tacoma in 4wd has less than 1200 lbs total payload, that 's why!

[@andrewbaatz4564]

How much for whole set up ?

[@williamfrancis402]

Look, a $100,000 plus Colorado!

[@williamsealy8781]

Yeah i know.. what a jackass. I could build a Toyota with identicle specs that will hold better value and outlast it for half the price.

[@billstrehl9822]

@william francis I priced out a 2021 ZR2 Bison with all the gear I could detail from the video and came out a little above $72K; with other items I would add it was just under $78k

[@iwishiknew10]

Then Chris broke it 😂
