It’s weird no one makes a truck that’s low to the ground anymore, you can still have a big bed and towing capabilities and maybe sacrifice some off road capability which no one ever uses, but you’ll have a car that’s easier to see out of, easier to drive, easier to get in, more pedestrian safe, and more fuel efficient.

​@stormix5755 It's crazy to me because someone at work had a 2WD Chevy 1500 from the 80s and that thing was barely any taller than the sedans in the parking lot. My old 4x4 S10 Blazer had just as much interior room as modern compact CUVs, more clearance, and a lower roofline. My S10 ZR2 pickup had crazy clearance, sat on 31s, had a 6ft bed, roughly 1k in payload and was still half the size of a modern Colorado. Problem was it also had an AWFUL crash safety rating by modern standards. The Jeep Renegade I replaced the ZR2 couldn't even park in the garage I used to keep the ZR2 to in because it was to tall. A stock crossover with a very cramped interior and barely enough clearance for my needs could not fit in the same garage a body on frame S10 with 3 inches extra lift could. Now I drive a 22 GMC Acadia because I needed more cargo space and more rear seat room for car seats and it has a similar wheelbase to my S10, a similar width to my Renegade, and yet is so much larger than either. I dont think a lot of people want bigger cars, I think a lot of people want the same functionality we have had for the last 20 years and the exteriors just keep growing unnecessarily.

They all talked ish about it, they asked why i got a tacoma instead of a tundra, trying to talk ish. I told them i dont tow more than 6,500 pounds, they said well now you cant if you need to.

A company I drive for uses the base model version of these as a delivery vehicle. Even with the lowest power tune, it can still get going pretty well. The bed is quite small, but it can still hold the larger stuff that I deliver (boxes of oil, radiators, engines, transmissions). Only downside is no cruise control as standard, sometimes the 8 speed transmission can't decide what gear it wants to be in, and GM quality control as the one I drive has some electrical faults

[@film-john]

I cannot believe cruise control isn't standard. Typical GM.

[@dashreasinger1430]

Yeah before I graduated college in 2023, I worked for an auto parts store for 2 years, and we used the Colorados. Now I'm a GM guy so I already liked chevy, and I really liked the 20 and 21 colorado we had. My only two gripes, and it wasn't the cars fault but the companies, was that they gave us the 4 cylinder 2wd models, despite living in an area with lots of mountains and snow. Sometimes I had to really push that 4 cylinder just to go 20 up a hill, but again that's not against the vehicle, more against the company for not understanding what the store needed. Also funny enough we only had 1 awd delivery vehicle out of 5, for a store in a really rural area, with dirt roads that got lots of snow, but the stores in the city all got multiple awd vehicles lol

[@Pharmakon_nokamrahP]

The 2.7L inline 4 in this truly is “overbuilt” for constant heavy load. Savage Geese has done a nice job interviewing the Chevy engineering team on the ‘High Output Turbo Max’ engine the official name this time around. The engineers were so proud of this and yet you don’t see that from Toyota getting down to the fine details of what makes theirs reliable (we will see in due time). This 2.7 has had a few iterations these past few years so it’s had time to prove itself at least reliable under 100K miles

[@brysonfrantz4740]

When I first saw the 2.7l I4 from GM I was skeptical since I saw it in the Canyons and noticed it was making only 15 hp less than my Fusion 2.7l v6, but after hearing about the amount of them that are proving reliable I was proven wrong.

[@superdupermax]

Only 2.7 I trust is the one in my 200k mile '09 Tacoma

[@dawsongranger4940]

The biggest issue with these engines is when the ambient temperature is higher than 70-80 degrees it derates the torque noticeably. So the whole reason to get this truck is null. It’s super picky about intake temperature. At elevation is also apparently derates the engine. More so than the power loss that occurs at higher temp and elevation in all cars

[@Wheagg]

I understand that these things are more reliable than they used to be... But I just can't see myself ever buying a turbocharged truck. Simplicity is reliability, and these modern vehicles... Whoo boy. I can't stand the screens.

This generation of Colorado looks really tempting. When I was in the market in 2020 the Z71 was for towing but had a huge front bumper, grill, and underbody to improve fuel economy for the V6 so it had no ground clearance for off roading. The ZR2 had the off road capability but couldn't tow. I ended up going with the Gladiator that had both. If I had to choose again today I'd be leaning more towards this, especially for the price.

The idea of keeping the vehicle like it's a command center of sorts is really heartwarming for some reason

[@bobstanton6821]

The AUX switch is a blank switch that is available to install your own load. It is switched to ground, supply your own 12v+. The inverter is auto sensing for when you plug something in. The tailgate can be set to about 40% up by looping the tailgate cable onto a semicircle on each side of the tailgate. You can put some 2x6s in the bed (cross wise) in the engineered bed reliefs for a level load carrying area for 4'x8' sheet goods, or more. I had the '21 Z71 and it was nice, but I traded it for '24 71 and the new engine is far superior.

I never thought I would consider a 2.7l turbo from an American car company in a truck over a Japanese option. But, currently I'm looking at this as an option that is justified when looking at the current 2024 market.

It's an LT 4X4 with the V-6 and the rear locker and uprated tow hitch. So, this truck will do most anything I might ask of it. I've had a full-size squarebody that was a great truck, a couple S-10s that while very different were great in the city where I live. This has proved to be the "Goldilocks" truck!

How many times did the truck apply full braking force on the highway because of roadkill? How many times did the bed fail to lock when you locked the doors? Was this one equipped with cruise control, but GM forgot to install the switch pack on the steering wheel? Was it nearly impossible to maintain a constant speed on the highway due to the immensely oversized turbo? Did you require physical therapy to address back problems resulting from the awful seats? Did you ever figure out how to turn the headlights on, because there's no headlight switch? Did you have creepy meth addicts with missing teeth approach you at gas stations complimenting your truck while staring at your crotch? Because that was MY experience with the 24 Chevy Colorado. I was a mindless GM fanboi until I had to live with this truck for 3 months. I will never own another GM product in my life.

[@stevearchtoe7039]

I love the Mr regular philosophy. Excelsior!

[@Corkoth55]

This wouldn't show up in my subscription feed. WTF?!

[@jhelora]

I have a 2022 CT4 V (not blackwing) with this same engine, and it's a very fast engine in that application and the car is a blast to drive.

[@BasedMace]

Almost got a colorado but they didn't trick me into test driving it because it wasn't a 4 x 4 and it was a 4 cyl

[@AtomicHombek]

Don't skimp on the undercoating.

[@kylesundquist5076]

Wonder what you think of the new Ranger? I have a 2019.

[@RoFKillaBacon]

i drive a canyon for work and i swear that thing must've been built on a Friday, been in the shop more than it hasn't with everything from injectors and ecus to most recently the crankshaft assembly and wiring harness being replaced

[@crushbaseball4270]

From experience also since a friend of mine owns one, the ZR2 version is extremely good. It’s the best value for an off-road top trim truck since I guess it competes with the Ranger raptor and the Tacoma Trd pro I think it starts 5000 less than the range raptor and 10,000 less than the Tacoma Trd pro and you’re not losing any off-road capability it keeps up with both those also the Auto four-wheel-drive is nice. I’m pretty sure that Tacoma doesn’t even offer.

I've ordered from Factor (your sponsor) while back, the food was good my only complaint I had was the packaging was constantly ariving damaged. I don't blame them but whatever 3rd party they used to deliver.

[@chevymontmarlo]

Do quite love these new colorados although i wish it still had the extendo cabs and long beds even v6s or something

[@chevymontmarlo]

The colors of the Colorado are good too

[@phantasmagoric3934]

14:25 are you talking about scotty kilmer? 😂

[@DaDaDo661]

Scotty doesn't have a southern accent. It might be Fordtechmakaluco

[@Grimm-Gaming]

Is that Justin Silverman from Cinemassacre? 😂 the owner looks just like him. Oh heard you say his name is Justin 😂

[@Grimm-Gaming]

Hows the new venture buddy! I remember my first time seeing u was as Clown on avgn

[@mattbaillargeon]

Yeah it is Justin who ruined cinemassacre.

[@GIDOJO]

Dang, Justin… where are all the Gengar stickers and Gengar seat covers and custom purple Gengar paint job???

[@humangarbage9199]

I just bought an 08 Colorado yesterday and this video comes out

[@dwartbg1]

Hey, It's Justin

[@Louzahsol]

My dad was given one of these for his work truck. It’s quick, but I doubt the engine is going to last.

[@Low760]

12:27 yep. Most people don't need something this size in Australia also.

[@kalkhalinzhui1753]

For real, most utes that I've seen in Australia have a barebones truckbed for utilitarian purposes.

[@edgardelgado7792]

Me taking out my calculator to make sure those percentages add up 👀

[@HollywoodHornet]

I was like, "bro, is that Justin Silverman / Dennis Nedry"? Turns out, it was. Good stuff.

[@concrete2733]

I have had the colorado and the canyon of the new gen. Whenever I give it beans from a slow speed I can feel the axle wrap and drivetrain vibration go crazy from all of the movement from the torque. It’s a good motor but definitely not refined. I get almost the same fuel economy as the 5.3 on the highway. I cannot get more than 600kms to a tank to save my life no matter how nice i drive it.

[@rolandverde8771]

Hell yeah chevy dmax

[@PhoenixsWorldVideos]

rcr dmax episode would be so good with all the "d"max jokes

[@rolandverde8771]

@PhoenixsWorldVideos also very possible since they went to australia👀
