The mistake is to think that GM wanted to compete the Raptor and the TRX. If they actually wanted to compete, they would’ve destroy both. They have triple the budget lol. Like Mike said, they have everything in hand and even more to do so. They have the engine, the off-road knowledge, the base model is already a good truck to build whatever they want to it.Theres no actual reasons to be disappointed.

Big GM fan here I have a 2019 GMC Sierra and love it, at 40,000 miles I have had no problems or issues. The TRX and Raptor are nice trucks but you're coughing up a lot of extra money for a lot of stuff you don't use or need on a daily basis. I like the ZR2, the interior is just awesome and the refresh look on the outside is sleek looking. I'd rather buy this truck and add some mods which would still be way less than the Raptor and the TRX.

Chevrolet should have built the 1500 Trail Boss and GMC should have built the 1500 AT4 like the new 1500 ZR2 and 1500 AT4X. Next Chevrolet should have built the 1500 ZR2 and GMC should have built the 1500 AT4X more like the Ford F150 Raptor and Dodge (Ram) TRX.

If you expected Chevy to compete with the Raptor & TRX, then you’re disappointed. If you expected GM to offer an off-road package at a more attainable price-point, then the ZR2 appears to be a huge win. The Trail Boss was a step in the right direction & the ZR2 notches upward with thr interior & suspension, while remaining price competitive for the industry space that it occupies.

[@15Jeep]

Chevrolet and GMC are after different market segments...lower vehicle price points with fewer OEM upgrades, options and accessories targeted to lower income demographic compared to similar type of vehicles built and offered by both Ford, Dodge (Ram) and Jeep. GM just goes 75 to 80 percent of the way with 4WD "specialty vehicles". GM always seems to fall very short of what their customer base really desires and wants....the Blazer, 2500 AT4, 1500 Trail Boss, 1500 AT4X and 1500 ZR2 are all UNFINISHED when they roll off the assembly line for this "vehicle segment type" compared to Ford with the F150 Raptor, F150 Tremor, Bronco, F250 Tremor, F350 Tremor and Dodge with the 2500 Power Wagon, 1500 Rebel and 1500 TRX. To top it off, GM does STUPID stuff regarding the details. The tires on the 1500 ZR2 should be on the 1500 AT4X and vice versa, The ZR2 is the more aggressive off-road capable truck but has no rock slider bars on the rocker panels. The Electric Precision Shifter (the handle) is not very ergonomic.....quite the opposite. Both engineering departments get a big F (FAIL) on that interior appointment. I would hate grabbing that cumbersome FAT horizontal handle each and every day while driving the truck! Actually, it is absolutely PATHETIC, the engineers dropped the ball by not designing an ergonomic SLENDER vertical handle that is pleasing to grab each day. On the other hand, the front and rear e-Lockers are a big plus...noticeable improvement over the previous G80 in the rear differentials. In addition, the high and tucked exhaust tail pipes are a welcomed detail on a 4WD truck. Both Ford and Dodge (Ram) would be smart to follow that exhaust cue on some of their 4WD off-road specialty type trucks.

The ZR2 will not be “$70k” dude. I agree, it would have been cool if they made a TRX competitor, however the ZR2 will outsell the TRX and Raptor combined. GM’s $100k truck will be the Hummer EV.

That low mpg that the TRX has for paying over 90k for a truck is insane. I think Chevy went the route of more consumers having a chance to have an off-road truck. Not a 1000hp street racing truck.

No makes zero sense in the scheme of things they have how many other type of those trucks women and normal consumers get like trail boss and what not plus how many other trucks like that

[@BRAINFxck10]

@@freedomfox8183 this ain't no Trail Boss tho, this is a legit off roader, it's only the Trail Boss that doesn't make sense because it's very similar to the Z71 package

@@BRAINFxck10 I agree. Depending on the price of the ZR2, I see most people opting for the ZR2 than the Trailboss which would be the end of that model.

[@danknug922]

You hit the nail on the head with everything you said. Chevy completely screwed up by not offering a competitive truck with the raptor and the T. Rex. With the enthusiast nowadays you don't have to play at safe, people want the extreme and extravagant. And are actually willing to pay the extra money for it. so unless they surprise us all they definitely screwed up.

[@utuber5198]

I did not expect or want the silverado zr2 to be a raptor or TRX competitor. I wanted all the off-road capability of a Colorado zr2, with an updated interior and bigger frame and I got exactly that with the silverado zr2!

[@scottroberts3705]

Yeah who wants 12 miles to the gallon for the TRX and I want a off road full size truck with both front and rear lockers and this gives that to me and both the raptor and trx don't have!

[@indraotsutsuki3072]

Would have love to see a LT5 Baja Silverado with 35 or 37 inch tires that would have been the best competitor to the raptor and trx

I agree 100%. A glorified trail boss with a new grill, wider DRL, a zr2 badge, and an upgraded interior

[@Purdue03b]

I think they did this to leave themselves room for a Raptor R/TRX fighter. This ZR2 lines up pretty well with a regular Raptor in all the performance characteristics, HP, torque, approach/departure angles, off-road goodies, etc. There is only one way the ZR2 comes, so there's no optioning it up to TRX price levels, so there's plenty they can throw at it and enter the Raptor R/TRX arena. Simply slapping on the supercharger from the Camaro ZL1 takes it to 650/650 in the HP and torque which is nearly the TRX levels. A little tuning and you're there. I think they did this on purpose to have an off-road capable truck in an affordable range, while still leaving themselves room for a halo truck.

[@fl_atv_riders4455]

It's a actual off-road rig not a status buy to show wealth. I'm quite happy it's not a over priced useless truck. This would be a great daily and weekend off-roader with its front and rear locking diffs

[@nmtz91]

You have a point in almost everything but the interior part It’s safe to say that this new GM interior it’s just as nice as any other

[@evaristocorripio5434]

If you get inside a new ram limited or trx interior, you'll see its still a step ahead in terms of materials and attention to detail, but huge improve in the silverado compared to the last one.

Id say ram is still slightly better but you're certainly right that gm is now absolutely gorgeous. I think ford's now the ugly stepchild in the truck world

GM is marketing the new Hummer EV as their “super truck.” The zr2 is built to complete with the rebel and tremor. It’s a shame they didn’t make an lt5 wide body truck. Even still the 6.2 is no slow poke and you know people are going to super charger it. Hennessy 👀

[@Thomasrollins_]

Couldn’t disagree more. Raptor and trx trucks remind me of something a second grader would visualize with 10,000 hp. No thanks. I’ll take the new zr2 over both of those juvenile looking vehicles any day. I couldn’t care less about 700 hp.

[@KeithHendrickson1981]

The 6.2 engine has long been one of the best v8 engines on the market. May not have the horsepower but it has the durability. Lets remember Ram is owned by fiat and that engine won't last IMO. 6.2 v8 was and still is the king of the road. We will be seeing the horror stories in the future of all the fiat trx in the junkyard in 5-20 years while we will still be seeing the Silverado XR2 running wild on the streets.

Idc, I'll always be GM loyal to the day I die. Every car/truck we've owned has been GM. The only things not are my motorcycles where I'm partial to Yamaha. I think the new ZR2 Silverado will perform just fine and if someone like AEV can do to a Silverado what they did to the Colorado then it's gonna be amazing! However, I do agree with the fact that they could have put in the LT5 and they should have!

[@gd1996]

I'm a mopar guy, owned many gms and fords but they could never build a vehicle to make me switch over. It's what I grew up around, learn to build/drive/race etc. I do build cars, so my limit is my abilities, not what the factory offers.

[@jeremylunning654]

The fact that you think a 10k price difference isn't a big difference to the standard consumer just proves that you are the wrong person to take care buying advice from. Your whole argument is about building hype. That may be a great business model for a youtuber, but something tells me Chevy make a calculated decision based on real world information.

[@dilonbriideadbeauty8246]

It is very disapointing to see the new ZR2 , I own the 2020 Colorado ZR2 Bison and I love it, has the wide body and all the amazing off-road package you would want in a smaller pickup, the power is totally under rated with its v6 and v4 economy mode but it is missing that needed power you would expect from an offroad machine, I love my Colorado seriously, it's a great truck but it definitely needs a power boost, its sad to see them taking a step backwards with the ZR2... I wont be trading in my 2020 ZR2 Bison any time soon but GM needs to step up their game in the offroad community, Great video

"TRX sells like hot cakes" I would like to see legit sales numbers on that one? I doubt they are selling a ton of 80-90k trucks with 800hp that have near single digit fuel economy and towing that even mid size pickup's can do. ZR2 has 6.2 in it so super charger option's are massive for it to give it 700hp. the market for 700+hp truck is tiny at best.
