In a time with so much negativity it’s nice to see people enjoy life. You worked very hard for this Robert and you waited a long time. Most deserved!

Getting a truck that you really always wanted makes your expedition so much better, so much fun and complete. Happy Trails Robert!

Why not a Ford Lightning EV to tow camper across this Beautiful Country? You would only have to pull over and unhook camper every 77 miles to recharge for an hour, who wouldn't want to deal with that? lol....We love your channel Robert, thank you for showing those unable to travel how Beautiful the USA really is.

Congratulations on the new truck!! Looks beautiful. I ordered a F150 in March for towing my trailer, got it in August and love it.

Dude, I missed this transition from the Colorado. Beautiful truck! I love it!

Cool Robert! Let's continue boldly going where no man has gone before in the Starship! Enjoy in good health.

Great choice Robert! that 5.3 has been around for a long time and is a proven engine!

I have a 2011 Silverado with the 5.3 & a 6 speed transmission. I have 145,000 miles on it & it runs great. It’s had synthetic oil from day 1 & it runs awesome. Looking forward to another 100,000 miles.

Hi Robert congrats on your new Trail Boss. You definitely have earned it and hats off to you. I also have a 2022 refreshed Trail boss and I must tell you Chevy really knocked the exterior and interior designs out of the park. This is my first pickup truck and really overjoyed with it. I started Watching your channel a few years ago and you inspired me to join the RV adventure life. I ordered an Airstream 2021 August and had planned on towing it with an Audi until my wife convinced me otherwise. After much research I settled on the Chevy Trail boss with the 5.3L V8. I ordered my trail boss Last December and took delivery mid June and 3 months later got the Airstream. The interior with the digital gauge cluster as well as the infotainment systems are phenomenal. The center console's electronic shifter is also nice for me. GM has done a really nice job with the interior. I have driven my truck 5900 miles since taking delivery and have nothing but praise for GM. I get around 21 MPG on the highway and 13 when towing the 23 foot 6000 pound Airstream. The 10 speed automatic produces better milage when you drive between 60 and 70 mph. In my 40 years of purchasing American, Japanese and European vehicles this is my first GM and couldn't be happier. Your observations are spot on although I have not experienced any hiccups with either of the dashboard screens. I use Apple CarPlay and pandora and both are also great and have met my expectations. I really look forward to seeing your RV adventure videos with your new truck.

Your gonna love the amount of room you have in this truck compared to your Colorado. I used to have a Toyota Tacoma and upgraded to my current Tundra crewmax cab and the difference is night and day. Goid luck with your new chevy. I never owned a chevy truck but i have been a passenger in them and i think they have the nicest interiors and the most comfortable seats of all the full sized pickups. One thing I would suggest is to get rid of those stock mirrors and get a good set of aftermarket tow mirrors. Thanks for showing us your new ride and good luck with it.

Robert, very nice truck! I am sure that you will love the power that it provides you when towing and you should get many years of reliable and fun usage from it. Congrats!

You’re never going back now, all the space and the V8 you are going to love it. I sure miss my 2 door Tahoe, loved the power. It was something about your channel the small trucks pulling the small trailer made the channel special. But you are going to love it with the new. congrats.

Fine looking ride Robert. I have a 2014 Silverado and tow a 21 ft. camper. Naturally my 2014 doesn't have all the bells and whistles that yours has but it is a nice ride and tows well. Your truck is beautiful and I hope you really enjoy it. Happy Trails!

Nice! That truck will take you everywhere you want to go in style! Plus, it’s fun to get a new vehicle and they smell great too! Have fun!

Nice truck. For better mpg the inline 6 diesel is available. I spoke to an owner in Mexico last winter who gets better than 30 mpg not towing with the diesel. Hope to see you on the road someday

Wow, she's a sweet ride!! Drive that Starship in safety & good health. Cheers! 🚚 ✌ 💘 🏕

Congratulations on the new truck! I have the older 3.0 RST and love it. I will mention you didn't think you would use the 4 window down feature. I use it on the remote. Hold down the unlock button for a few seconds and all 4 go down. I have use that all the time during the summer, to vent the heat before I get in the truck. Still hot but not as bad.

Congrats on your new truck starship! It looks awesome!

Nothing’s gonna stop you now ❤ I love it Robert 🎉

Gorgeous truck! Dad worked at GM his entire career, got a new vehicle to drive to work & bought a new GM vehicle for the family ever year. Before my Robert & I get our own Minnie Tinnie, we'll get our awesome GM tow vehicle. Thinking Suburban. But maybe a Silverado now. Your videos have me favoring a Winnebago!!!

Congrats Robert. Beautiful Truck👍 You’ve earned it. Happy for you.

Beautiful inside and out, congrats!!

Yayyy, you got a real truck to tow your RV around this great country!!! I bet it will handle so much better than the smaller trucks in your past.

Your videos relax me. I just love your content and always look forward to it.

Moving up , what a contrast from old Kia to go on road trips with the Trail Boss and by the way you choose the perfect color .

Congratulations Robert! I’m so happy for you.

Beautiful truck. Love the color. Enjoyed your review. Very thorough job showing all the features of the Silverado.

Vert nice trucks. I have the big brother GMC AT4 2022 refresh with 6.2. They tow amazingly well. Good review and safe travels.

Congratulations Robert Can see you were very happy with your new truck, it is very gorgeous absolutely love it

Congratulations on the new truck, you can get an auto start/stop eliminator to stop the auto start without effecting the warranty

GM make probably the best Diesel engine on the US market, in-line six, it’s worth to consider it some time in the future. I think you could even double your mpg. Anyway, a lovely truck! I can’t wait to see you hit some more demanding roads and trails. “See you on the road”!

Glad you like your new Trail Boss! I love my 2019 T.B. !

Starship is sharp! And silver is my favorite color as well especially with the black trim and the black bow tie! I love it! Thanks for the video.

Congratulations on your new truck! We used to tow our trailer with the 5.3L and the mileage ran between 8 and 10 mpg at 63 mph. If you slow down to 65 mph your mileage towing should be a little bit better. Everything has to do with HOW you drive it while towing. P.S.: You can disable/turn off the things that you don't want to have running. The owner's manual will tell you how.

I'm very pleased with my 2019 Chevrolet Silverado LTZ Z71. I think you will be pleased too over the long haul.

Nice truck and I like the American flag being a US NAVY VET!

Nice truck Robert you deserve it with all the hard work thanks for sharing, might see you on the road!!!!!

Love your videos, Robert! Thanks for making them!

Robert, you may be driving to fast for your best mpg. I find that 58 to 62 mph produced the best mpg , just commenting

Thanks for sharing. I am glad to hear that it is a step up from your Colorado and I am sure that your butt thanks you. I was a big fan of the digital dashes at first but they have become so common it has made interiors kind of generic. The reason they are common nowis because they are cheap. I agree with the shifter comment and also I include push button start with that. Change for change sake is not a step forward. If I could afford it I would have gone with the diesel option on the chev it is just such a nice engine for towing and hwy driving. The equal on the ford side would be the 7.2kw pro power onboard/hybrid. For RVer there is no quieter or more powerful generator. You will never have to worry about disturbing the neighbours or sweating/freezing in your trailer again. Just fill up your truck before you park and enjoy.

Nice truck! Good choice for a towing rig. The tires alone are probably hitting the MPG a half to one mile per gallon since they are wide and have aggressive tread. And of course the taller stance isn't helping the MPG. My last two weeks at work I got to drive around a 2022 Silverado and Wow the headlights are that impressive! My 2018 F250 with 83k miles needs a new engine so I got the new truck. Nice vehicle Stay safe! Bill in Utah

Congrats! It is a beautiful truck! Wishing you many miles of happiness!!

Very nice truck, I have it’s cousin the GMC Sierra also a 5.3l. Check out the Pulsar LT. You can completely bypass auto start stop and cylinder deactivation amongst other things which will extend the engine’s life. Also you can add a open air filter intake and that will give you better MPG’s. Lastly I would invest in an oil catch can to help reduce carbon buildup. Non of these will void your warranty. Check it out.

Congrats on the new truck!!

Let’s face it, I’m a cheap bugger! My desire is to by a winter camping setup that can also be used the rest of the year and the Mini-Tiny with the heated tank set-up looked good to tow with my Canyon. As I got into the details more I found myself limited at the ski resorts to “self contained “vehicles”” (Vans and Slip-in Campers [pickup bed] that the Canyon can’t do). It is really coming down to where do I want to shower, in the camper or at the rear door and/or truck stops, I want a composted toilet either way since tanks are problematic and need care for winter use and I never liked the Idea of dragging around a cassette. However, along my decision journey, I considered the Sierra (GMC Version of your truck which I think is the AT4 for off road). The price tag on the 2022s was outrageous and the Chevys are comparable, I may keep my Canyon All Terrain for 10 years, or more, due to that, and find a good used cargo van and insulate, wire, panel and heat it with a gasoline or diesel heater. Also in order to get the leather seats and all terrain package I still had to forego the heated seats (I love my heated seats on cold winter days) due to the chip shortage, here in Tennessee, for the 2022 models. I hope the 2023s have them at those prices. Then those sub 20mpg’s for the V8 make using it for anything other than a tow vehicle iffy. I cringe at $40 gas fill ups from a half tank on my Canyon and I only see the price of fuel getting worse next summer and diesel is close to $5 a gallon now so all those mpg’s saved there are eaten by it’s cost. I no this because a woman I work with’s Dodge dually diesel is eating her alive but she needs it to tow her hood cleaning equipment, her other job.

I myself would have gone with the Duramax engine. Duramax is very quiet and high torque that really makes climbing hills easy. I think it would get a little better mileage. Anyways, great choice. Happy travels 🙂

I am happy for your Robert. You work hard and deserve a nice truck...

Congratulations on the new truck. Just waiting until the wife's car is paid off and it's going to be my trade in. 😁. Wonder if I should let her know first.

Aka Mission control ...very nice Robert.

What a beautiful pickup!! Thanks for sharing this with us Robert! It looks awesome!

Robert, congratulations on your new truck!! It's a beautiful machine. The color looks great, nice interior. Im happy for you, Now like you said, you can go where you could not before. #SafeTravels

Congratulations Robert nice Truck, perfect for when you travel here in Australia lol

Congratulations Robert on your new truck

Nice truck Robert. Enjoy. Unfortunately those tires will produce noise while traveling. It's just a product of nobby tires. What you can do is rotate them more frequent until it's time for new tires. Michelin make great truck tires with less noise.

Really nice new truck. I am sure you will love it. At the moment I tow with an F150, but have towed lots with the GMC 1500 series, and it makes a very capable tow vehicle I think. Surprised you did not go with the Tow Mirrors though, but nonetheless I am sure this truck will do you well. As always, safe travels....

Driving and showing us.

Beautiful truck and better towing options.

Congratulations for new tow truck. Looks like it has lots of good features. Tero, the old friend from Finland.

I think you can turn off stop start because Scotty Kilmer said it might cause issues. We must listen to Scotty so your truck surpasses 300,000 happy miles 👍. I'm excited for you Robert. Good luck and thanks for the entertainment.

Congrats!!! It’s beautiful. I’ve been worried the Colorado was underpowered but it did it’s job for 130,000 miles

We went shopping a few weeks ago for a car a couple years old. We have until December to get one for some young people's wedding. I hate car shopping I'd rather have a root canal. But the high-pressure sales techniques are rare now. The sales lady apologized for the low inventory/high miles and told us she could order us a new one for less than getting a used one! Heck yeah! I love new car smell and good warranties they have now. I'm tickled about it! Traveling some again ( at least regionally ) Here we come!

Beautiful truck.

Nice starship. Glad that the "cons"are only minor. Stay safe.

what a beauty

I am just watching your video of Canada from 2013 Your French is very good Love all your videos

Such a more capable vehicle for towing than the Colorado. I believe the more you get used to it the more you will appreciate its. Good choice. 👍

Congrats on the new truck. Enjoy!!!

CONGRATULATION ON THE NEW CHEVY TRUCK:)

Congratulations on your new truck. Enjoy!

Nice truck Robert, I recently got a new Ram 2500 with all those features, the 360 cameras are great, Enjoy! Happy Travels!

Congrats on the new truck! Can’t wait to see more of it on your future videos along your journeys. ☺️🤟🏻

Nice truck! I'm sure Chevy would do something as far as adjusting or modifying some of those things you don't like. You would probably pay a premium, but if it's good as is even better.

Congratulations on your new truck!! It should be more comfortable on long trips. The 4X4 will be helpful with better ground clearance. The off road tires are not ideal for highway driving. I changed mine to a Michelin highway tire and noticed better ride, handing, fuel economy with less road noise. They perform well for most 4X4 situations.

I was amazed that you would tow your 2108 with the Colorado that seems so underpowered. We liked the Winnebago 2108, but the interior height was a bit short (I am 6' 3"), so we went with the Rockwood Minilite 2104s, which has the 6'8" headroom and murphy bed and similar length to your 2108. My F-150 with the 5.0L V-8, although a good truck, just was not up to the task for towing it, so I got the F-250 powerstroke, and wow, talk about go anywhere (although hate diesel fuel prices)! I also got rid of the all terrain tires and went with the Continental Terrain Contact HT all season highway tires and so much better for towing on the road and not too bad off road unless you get into some real sketchy terrain. Love your videos and perhaps catch up to you at the Tampa RV show in January. We have a site at Hillsboro River State Park. JT from Orange City, FL.

It looks amazing! You are going to feel a big difference on the road with the TT attached! Great video. Have fun on the run 🙂

Hi Robert! Congratulations on your new Starship.

Hey Robert, all windows down button on a hot day cool the truck off pretty darn fast.

Nice truck Robert! You’ve got great towing power with that vehicle. Congrats!

Nice ride.

Beach camping! That would be very cool. Nice Chevy by the way.

Cool truck!

Congratulations 🎉

Before they merged, XM had much better fidelity and actually advertised as having CD level audio as compared to conventionnal FM; once they merged they decided to greatly expand the lineup and increased the compresssion to do it.

Robert on off-road tires with a truck like yours rotate them more than recommended. It’ll keep them quieter.

Nice truck! I have a very similar rig. A 2020 Silverado 1500 towing a Micro Minne 2106DS. I went with the 3.0L Duramax turbo diesel. My MPG is somewhat better, around 14 mpg towing and about 26 mpg around town, over 30 mpg on back roads keeping speed below 65 (best MPG over 25 miles = 43 mpg). One of my major dislikes of the truck is the emergency/parking brake. Mine will automatically put the parking brake on sometimes, especially after some tight maneuvering (like hitching up) and inevitably I will reach down and release it after it automatically came on. Also the truck may move slightly after setting the brake. I also got the standard bed (6.5’) which makes the truck 22’ long, and it can be a challenge to park some times. But it tows like a dream, plenty of smooth quiet power and with the equalizer hitch, no trailer sway even in strong crosswinds or large trucks passing.

It's really nice to see that you got this truck in the end Robert. Watching the video I can tell how much you like your truck, it reminds me of how I feel about my BMW Z4. Can you walk away from it without turning back for 1 more little look?😊

Sweet truck I have a black 2019 not quite as fancy as yours but it works for me I agree with you on the shifter maybe it will grow on you but really a beautiful truck. Robert one thing please don't go on the beach the salt will mess it up it is too pretty for that. Good luck traveling and be safe and enjoy

Very nice, now I'm thinking of upgrading to a 2022 or 23. Thanks for sharing 👍

Nice truck.

The truck is sweet. Wow!

Awesome, Robert! Love your choice of trucks...been waiting forever for you to get a 4wd. I have a GMC 2005 Sierra Z71, and I can tell you from experience you will LOVE this one. Not a big fan of all the new electronical thingies....but that's what you get these days. Be brave and explore, you will be amazed at the places that are now in your reach! Hugs to you and Ile!

It’s a beautiful truck and should last a long time. I have 119K on my 2015 4X4 Silverado and it still runs like it’s brand new. It tows my Palomini 186 very nice. My wife and I love your channel!

It is a good looking truck whish it was a hybrid, that would have given you a better fuel consumption especially when not towing, and travelling in city streets. I don't know why the American manufacturing don't make hybrid truck. These days even minivans have gone hybrid. Anyway Robert it should help you when climing hills and towing the trailer. It is a business and adventure truck. Take care Robert, looking forward in your trips with the truck.

Beautiful new truck, Robert. Congrats!

Glad for your success!! Enjoy you positive outlook on life.

Very nice, we have a 2015 2500 LTZ, it's been a great truck and has taken us to Moab and the west coast, thanks for sharing, hopefully I get to make it out to AZ too...ps, a good truck for the Ozarks 😉

Very nice! It’s about time. Should be no problem hauling your trailer around now. And even with the V-8 the towing mileage should be much improved!

Congrats. It looks great and the 4WD will get you in those good boondocking sites. Can't wait to see you out on the road in it.

Good choice

Love the truck! I think you made a great choice. Hope you have lots of fun adventures with it.
