Thank you for the kind words!

Agreeee! Well Done!

Thank you! I’m glad the video helped and that you liked it.

Thank you! I think the touch screen for everything is a cool concept, but in real life it doesn’t work as well.

I think that GM putting this diesel in more models speaks volumes about their confidence in its performance and reliability. Your experience is another testament to that and I’ve seen way more good stories compared to bad ones.

lol same thing here. 21 gmc at4 with the 3.0 and a 23 Yukon SLT with the 3.0. Looking to upgrade the 21’ at4 to maybe a 24 zr2

@@williamdecatur4340 thank you so much for the kind words and sub! I’m glad this video helped you make your decision. I’ve done a few other videos on this truck and I’ve put over 14k miles on it with no real complaints. It may not be a Jeep based on wheelbase alone, but it’s off road capable still and the suspension allows for higher speed off roading and is amazingly smooth.

I hope everything goes right for you! I’m glad you like the review. I’m hoping to take it off-roading soon and uploading a video about it.

That’s awesome! I’m sure you’ll love it!

Love my 6.2 bison , getting an exhaust next to sail the sea of base raptors. I hope u got yours.

It’s my favorite color option for this trim!

You’re welcome, I’m glad I could help. Good luck on your quest! I hope you’re able to get the one you’re wanting soon.

@@MOHAWKAUTO None of dealers around me are giving much of discount, who was your dealer and your sales guy, I would love to give them a call and ask for a quote. Thank you!

@@theowerle1638 I’m sorry for the delay! My sales man was Miles with Kendall Chevrolet of Nampa (833) 903-0560. He’s awesome to work with, very responsive, and has maintained contact after the sale.

@@MOHAWKAUTO Thank you soo much, I will give them a call.

I agree that the AT4s are a lot more common, and I still like how GMC did the grill and headlights. But I'm still loving the ZR2 and how I got a lot more truck for the AT4 price. The bumper on the ZR2 is so much better I think.

Also the AT4 doesn’t come with DSSV Shocks so that’s a plus.

@@cameronfrazier6265 the DSSV shocks make all the difference and is a huge improvement for sure

I Dont See A lot of The AT4's

If you’ve been happy with your Colorado ZR2, you’ll really enjoy this.

@@MOHAWKAUTO well good to know then! Obviously the cost is much higher from my Colorado, so might wait til the end of summer to start looking. Sad they got rid of the sand color, but I can settle on the grey.

The more I drive it, the more I love it! I’m constantly impressed

79k?

@@johnnyfreeman1018 I paid well under 70 for mine

How much $$ under?​@@MOHAWKAUTO

@@MOHAWKAUTO subscribed. Love the price, and your descriptions of the vehicle.

It was about 15% at the time and the acceleration is good, but different than the 6.2. I really want to take my truck to the local drag strip to get official numbers to compare. The 6.2 feels and sounds faster (that motor is such a good sounding engine with exhaust), and I’m sure it is compared to the 3.0. However, the 3.0 isn’t the slouch people make it out to be because of it’s almost 500 lbft of torque and smooth shifting transmission. It’s a lot quieter and not as dramatic so it doesn’t have that same sense of urgency, but it would be good to have hard numbers to actually compare. I’ve never felt like my truck couldn’t get up to speed well enough, although I would like to get some sort of pedal commander to provide a more linear response and to eliminate the dead pedal sensation when getting off the line. This isn’t unique to GMs or this motor, but I do notice it to be more obvious on this truck.

Thank you!

I think it’s one of their best engines yet

The ZR2 being offered with the LZ0 diesel and the discount I got made the difference. I never considered the ZR2 because it was only offered with the 6.2 and was so much more expensive. After I found one with a diesel, I drove it and quickly noticed the Multimatic DSSV shocks made a world of difference for the ride. I liked the looks of the ZR2 over the other Silverados as well. I still think the Sierra has an overall more appealing grille and light setup, but I love my ZR2.

Those are great suggestions! Thank you!

I have a trailboss lzo with 15k miles, towed 5k from Louisiana to utah, pulls like a champ. Quiet in the cab engine doesn’t vibrate like a v8 diesel. Never been in the shop. Starts great in the cold. Easy to service. I plan on adding air bags or add a leaf. 22 mpg city 26-29 hwy mpg. Cons drinks way more def when pulling a load.

@@jakesvideos8204 I agree it consumes much more DEF while towing.

That’s awesome! Was that in the highway?

@@MOHAWKAUTO all highway but I was amazed.

@@darwinjames2000 that’s still really great mileage! What speed were you going?

I’m positive I am saving money. Diesel isn’t that much more money here, DEF is cheap and lasts a while, and idk what extra repair costs I’d have over gas these days, but my extended warranty should hopefully cover it for a long time. The fuel savings alone because of the mileage increase covers all other costs and then some. I just got back from a long trip and was seeing over 23 mpg consistently and as much as a little over 30 mpg at times. You’re not going to get that in a gas V8 half ton.

@@MOHAWKAUTO That is really cool! Thank you for the update. I appreciate it.

Sure. This is one of the most comfortable vehicles to drive that I’ve experienced. I’m a big guy and it’s a struggle for me to feel truly comfortable, especially during long trips. This is a joy to drive and I look for excuses to go on longer drives.

@@MOHAWKAUTO right on, eh. Looked like both arms could rest nicely at the window and at the centre console. That's my big pet peeve with OTHER vehicles... can't put your dang arms anywhere! Thx for replying

@@lifeOfBarneyMusic you’re welcome! My arms could rest on both no problem.

Great question! Stay tuned as we’ve completed a tow test for MPG and are working on the video now. It will be out in the near future.

I don’t think the tire noise is bad at all. I’m basing that off of how much I need to turn up the radio to hear it well, and I think I usually have the radio at about 25%

That’s great to hear! I still can’t find much to complain about with mine and the diesel is getting great fuel mileage. Those 6.2 engines are awesome sounding and fun to drive which I think causes a heavier foot. My friend has the 6.2 in his trail boss and it will pass anything but a gas station 🤣.

@@MOHAWKAUTO At the time they only had the 6.2L in the ZR2 but I test drove a RST trim with the LZO. Both are unbelievable engines and anyone is blessed to own one of these killer machines in my personal opinion. Here in Flint, Michigan gas prices for 93 octane are around 3.60ish a gallon. Diesel is 3.80ish. Only downfall I could ever see when buying the 6.2 was the obvious mpg comparison and the powertrain warranty isn’t the 100,000 miles like the diesel is. I had to reach into my piggy bank a little farther to match that safety net. Way too many complaints in the past about lifters and such for me not to have it.

@@Cstanton04 the only reason I never looked at the ZR2 before was because it didn’t have the LZ0 engine. That was an absolute must have for me. If that trim didn’t have it, I wasn’t interested. I’m so glad they added it to the 2024 ZR2. Even still, adding an additional warranty is a great idea. If you can pay for it without financing, it’ll probably pay for itself in shop time costs alone.

Yes it is. Thanks for watching!

Sorry, I asked that before you said about the DEF. I'd still like to know how big the fuel tank is, I can't find it on the Chevy website.

@@williamdecatur4340 no worries! The fuel tank holds 24 gallons.

Check out my latest video where I answer all those questions and more!

@@MOHAWKAUTO thank you! Hope you don’t mind a twin truck in the treasure valley. The closest one was in Missoula, MT. On a truck on its way here!

@@LoloWin I don’t mind at all! I’ve seen a few other ZR2s running around, but not many in this color and engine combo. Even fewer are equipped like mine.

@@MOHAWKAUTOpretty certain mine is the exact same. Color, engine, and even tailgate 😅

@@LoloWin I’m sure you’ll really like it!

I just took out a tape measure and from the front of the bed to the back where the spray in liner ends is 70” so 5’ 10”. For the rest of the world that’s 1.778 meters.

Awesome! Thank you for the info and the effort.

@@is6566 you’re welcome

I like the Tundra and I think it’s a good truck. I still prefer my truck though because of the engine and suspension setup.

And also the look of your truck looks so much better like a truck!

@@Tom-ds8xv thank you and I agree. In their stock form, the Tundra has room for improvement. However, throw a leveling kit on it and some bigger tires and it looks great.

The LZ0 is supposed to have a 200k mile inspection for the oil pump belt. If that’s true, barring neglect and abuse, it shouldn’t break at 150k.

There's a video of a mechanic taking apart a 3.0 with 146k+- and he said it was still n great shape.

@@billyyard5550 that’s great news!

Thanks for that great news !!!

Nothing wrong with a Cummins. The LM2 seemed to use more than the newer LZ0 from what I can find. I also noticed that a lot of the consumption was at lower mileage suggesting it was a break in thing as opposed to a permanent issue. I’ve put 2300 miles on my truck since I bought it and I’ll check the level tomorrow and see what it’s showing.

There is actually a fix for the oil consumption. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9eZerKhnpPZXY0.htmlsi=LWMm8M_2JDRSuF5b

I’ve watched a lot of his content and I haven’t had any oil consumption issues yet at just over 3k miles. First oil change coming up soon.

I bought mine at Kendall Chevrolet in Nampa, Idaho

Thanks!

@@MOHAWKAUTOif you don’t mind me asking, what did you end up paying out the door? I have my eye on one and waiting to see how the dealer is willing to deal.

@@TT_Romans8 I believe it was 67k before taxes, title, dealer doc, etc. I don’t recall exactly what it was after everything. I’m still waiting to get arrested for stealing it 🤣

@@MOHAWKAUTO 😂That sounds about right. Priced out at around 75 or 76. The one I’m looking at is around that.

That’s hilarious! I mean, it is smaller displacement than a lot of other half ton full size trucks.

I’ve heard of them and I’m interested in what their products. They offer a lot of lighting solutions that just make sense.

I went over the window sticker and pricing in my ZR2 or Z71 video and I paid 67k compared to the slightly over 75k sticker price

@@MOHAWKAUTO That ain't bad. The 3.0 Duramax is a winner. I think we were all waiting for GM to put that thing in the ZR2 and AT4X. Might wait a year to see if I can pick a used one up for an even better deal. That Slate/Thunderstorm gray color is nice!

@@G8GTJav There’s a few used ones here with the 6.2 and I saw a 2023 with the 6.2 in red for $64,593 just a half hour ago

@@MOHAWKAUTO It's got to be 3.0 Duramax for me. Great MPG and good towing. I love the 6.2 but it's thirsty and heard too many negative things about valvetrain failures to ignore. DOD/AFM/DFM, or what ever GM is calling it now, has been a liability since 2007.

@@G8GTJav I agree with you 100%

So far it seems to only have impacted a low amount of vehicles and they put a stop sell on them. GM hasn’t contacted me yet, but we’ll see what happens.

That’s true. I wasn’t wanting to wait longer though and I was debating between this color and lakeshore so I’m not disappointed.

@MOHAWKAUTO I personally think that the Slate Grey looks better, especially on the ZR2.

@@chrismarbrey9678 I agree! I think it goes better with the black on the outside and the color scheme on the interior as well.

Yes, we’re in Boise

I paid less than 70k

Those are big upgrades as getting aftermarket selectable lockers isn’t cheap and neither is upgrading the suspension.

​@MOHAWKAUTO its like choosing a landcruiser over a 4 runner

I like the look of the Sierras a lot, but I’ve never been much of a Chevy guy until this point. So I can see how my opinion might be different than most.

You’re right about the payload. I’m not sure where I read the 2400 pound amount at (doesn’t really matter at this point though).

@MOHAWKAUTO Can you divulge if the discount was closer to 5% or 15%. I'm ready to buy between Xmas and nye

@@paulmjprinz 15% discount would be closer to what I got.

@MOHAWKAUTO Thanks. I enjoyed the vid very much. Enjoy your ride.

@@paulmjprinz thank you! I hope you’re able to get one and you enjoy it as well.

Indeed

Why?

@@MOHAWKAUTO if you were looking for mpg lol

The truck isn’t too small, but it does have a short box that might make it look that way. The camera can also make the vehicles appear smaller than they really are. The 2500 doesn’t fit my needs. It doesn’t have a short box, it doesn’t have the same fuel economy, and it’s more expensive. If you watch my latest video where I test it in the snow, you’ll see me in it and it gives a better idea of the size.
