truckguyjoe in Soviet Russia....

I think this channel has an overall cool crew. Only real popular channel that I like.

It would be cool if andre say something in Russian once in a while, like in the beginning.

Agree!

It seems like he's just happy to be on the trail, no matter what happens.

I am a ford guy and I tend to agree. Still love that raptor though. The zr2 is definitely better suited for off road in heavy forest paths. It can squeeze through places the other two can't.

CMac the tires did to

It should be “FORD RAPTOR DONT CARE” 😂

sultan aldhaheri "Ford raptor don't care" (because it's way lighter)

Power Wagon cared quite a bit...

Power Wagon don't care.. because they didn't use the best equipment to get up the hill, the winch..

😂😂😂

shut up

Tyson Reid , agreed

And it made it look easy.

Yep, big behometh trucks tearing up trails and backroads are what's closing them each and every year. ZR2 traverses the back country without leaving carnage, and that's a good thing for ALL of us!

I would say that they cleared up the track a bit for the Colorado by going over it lol

PistolStar21 Yeah i would say they leveled it for the colorado to just go up

Yeah but those two will be in junk yard before that one raptor will....you get what you pay for

@@dougsadler5923 yeah ok!!!

Or for me, I’m saving up to get a diesel ZR2 for off-road/daily and to tow my FR-S to the track after I graduate. That’s all going to be a lot cheaper than a raptor (and I will already have had 7 years of the FR-S as my daily).

That's why I'm thinking about mid size trucks.

And if you go with a diesel colorado you can still tow 7700 lbs. What's not to like about that.

POWER WAGON!!!!

Ford Raptor

I'm with Nathan. 👍

Nathan: " POWER WAGON DON'T CARE! POWER WAGON DOn't... ... power wagon care..."

Hey Nathan, how many kids do you have? "Powerwagon don't care!"

That is one of the requirements of being a ford raptor fan.

@@NutnFartsy uhm, okay???

That altitude is no joke haha

Lmao I was thinking the same thing

I live at 7800'. 9000+ is no joke.

Yup, that front diff was plowing. Thing needs taller tires

whats that? get stuck?

MrSapper21 I believe they already made an episode with the zr2 diesel. It was a fan who took his and he drove it uptake course.

his was also a gas v6

MrSapper21 silly me sorry

Yes!!

its already happend

Ayden Stanley 😂

😂

Ayden Stanley that’s what you get with a “Power” Wagon

I was so happy his annoying ass got stuck

enigma9789 Me too lol

Bought my Xtra cab 2020 V6 ZR2 for $37,500 OTD.....really looked long & hard at s Raptor.....but the turbos & systems complexity made me shy away. Sold my 1998 ZR2 after 168,000 miles....not sure if the 2020 will go that far....the old ZR2 was 5speed manual and still going strong....well maintained throughout its life and still making the new owner happy!

@@ericbrandt829 nice dude been considering a ZR 2 as well any idea on what the diesel would be?

Agreed for sure

Don Pablo Because it is usually "Everything v Jeep Wrangler "

The raptor is the benchmark, that's why

It should be “FORD RAPTOR DONT CARE” 😂

sultan aldhaheri not until it gets a v8 option.

Basically its everything vs. Ford. They hate ford

It’s built in Mexico, fix it again Tito

When the Power Wagon stops getting stuck. lol

ledzeppelin27 awesome shaaaade! 👍😂

Saying that & with his face on the shirt would be funny

lol

Isbyourvname a mix of chevrolet and Kawasaki if so i like it alot.

😂

I think they are to heavy for that

IWrocker I agree. I think he could have aired down more too. If you ever swing down to Texas let’s show everyone how capable the PW really is.

Wagon Life amen to that brotha! I'd love to wheel with ya and show em how it's done 👍😎

IWrocker i agree, watching the tires as Nathan was attempting to climb, i could see he needed aired down more. But, to go that low, and on those rocks, I'd rather be on the Ko2's the Raptor had. I have Firestone riderite air bags on rear of my 16 PW and pull 12,000 lbs (26' PJ deckover tilt and the load on it) and those factory 8ply Goodyears just can't handle sharp rocks after they're half tread or less while carrying a heavy load. I lost 3 tires in less than a month to sharp marble sized rocks that pierced a half inch slit through the cords on the middle of the face of each one, just driving dirt roads in rural Nebraska. Went with 10 ply tires and never happened again. Granted Nathan had no load but there is a night and day difference between sidewalls of GY Wranglers and Ko2's and i think aired down more he would've ruined the GY's. Ya, I agree, he'd a made it with different shoes on. Have to admit, the Raptor and Colorado whipped a** though!

Bob Vincent well said yes I ditched my GY tires quick too, then the truck really livened up, mine has been a monster ever since. Just better driver technique and airing down woulda done the trick. I agree the raptor and ZR2 did very good tho. Its a great time for off-road enthusiasts!

enough said

Yeah Taylon, that was half driver error and the other half tires. They are too small to begin with, but I've never got the impression that TFL knows how to air-down correctly.

Whether or not it made it in the past is irrelevant. The trail was clearly tore up more than in the past, the challenge was elevated. The Dodge didn't stand up to the challenge the way the Chevy and Ford did.

Brandon Comer - What do you mean it was ‘irrelevant ‘? Douche. Was it not turning all four 33’s? Did Nathan pay attention to his line? Sorry, I’m in the tire industry, and that was the failure (and Nathan’s cockiness) not the truck. Now go change your tampon

The Ford and Chevy made it, the dodge didn't. End of story. You're bleeding down your leg, sweetheart.

Nik Sikkema the ZR-2 is by far the best prices, but if money wasn't part of the equation I have to go with the Ford Raptor for its off road abilities...........too bad I can't afford an $80,000 truck.

The colorado in diesel bison zr2 trim is the best off roading truck in history.

@@DrDoerk less off road ability than the zr2 for many reasons. However the raptor is excellent if you want to pretend its a real baja truck and bend the frame upon landing.

No, ford great, Chevy damn good, and dodge isn't even on the radar. Like I have always said, dodge hasn't made a decent pickup since the 80's

I was thinking about those, nice lookin trucks they are.

It better be at $70000

Jonathan Reed Chevy looked like it was struggling to me

67k truck vs a 43k truck, don't care how you cut it that is a chunk of change. Only place the Chevy Struggled was that first hill due to he followed the line the dodge went that messed up the trail and dug holes.

Jonathan Reed the Raptor is a terrible riding on road vehicle the ZR2 is superior it is because the Raptor is set up for off-road more than the ZR2 if you were to enlarge the tires fatter on the ZR2 it would be unquestionably still great writing on the road and Superior off-road than a raptor no doubt you can't argue that fact because physics and everything else considered there is no way I can be wrong about it the Chevy ZR2 is the superior truck in every single way

Lol.... Then I guess you've driven in both? I have, raptor is better in most situations where being small isn't critical. Been there done it end of story. I'm not partial to ford either my next truck will probably be a ram.

I like the raptor but cant even argue that pound for pound dollar to dollar. The zr2 is king .. If i was in a market for one id strongly consider the zr2 over the raptor because of the savings, similar ascetic, and similar proformance

You are right. Raptor is king, but the zr2 has the cost to fun ratio in the bag.

Woody watches tfl ! Missed the last couple pkas. Keep up the good work.

of course you want the kid to stay Woody! lol /s

Woodyyyyy. Mail monday

He's cool, not annoying like a lot of younger dudes who make car videos

Yeah that’s right that kid does a very good job, keep him on more videos, he had a lot to give to this awesome channel

+Eighty cc thank you!

Not mine sadly... Piece of crap,ive had so many issues with it, worst was losing heat twice mid winter when I needed it most. Not a reliable truck but flashy. Trading mine in for a Ranger Raptor or Tacoma TRD Pro if I can afford it, I need a reliable vehicle. I though this would workout but marketing got the best of me.

Kevin Noll yea unfortunately mine started flashing 24/7 a few months back and always flashes every time I drive it

Check the manual, it tells you why it does that, you do not have to get a anything replaced, mine did it one time..

I could not get the locker to engage on a new one either

I was just wondering WTF is he turning on lockers before he starts, he didn't even need them yet. Clear indication of NOT KNOWING WHAT YOU ARE DOING.

makattak88 don’t worry, the ZR2 is not GM is a Isuzu DMax.

Explain.

makattak88 Sure! Look, the Colorado and the canyon are just rebadged versions of the Isuzu DMax. Before the Colorado was the s-10 and before it was the Chevy luv. The only change is the grill and logos.

Why? Because a few guys on KZfaq don't include the tacoma in their video? You're funny lol

Because it is a joke of a truck for 40k in the off-road category. Heck, they even want the electronics to do the job for you lmfao. What true off-roader wants that?

Rumor is TFLT didn't enter the TuRD Pro because their getting fed up of all it's fans complaining about how it always finishes last.

Truth hurts.

You’ll never convince a TRD Pro owner that they aren’t the best. They always pull the reliability card out. But the truth is the Tacoma is on CR’s list of unreliable vehicles for 2017. And what makes things worse is the dumbasses are paying up to 15 grand over msrp for a truck that’s in 2nd place. Doesn’t make any sense.

I think they will do this probably for the 2019 model. They already are developing high-performance aftermarket parts for the ZR2 including longer travel shocks and a 1.5 body lift to fit bigger tires. It surely will be a raptor Killer then.

No thanks 2.8 Duramax

Naaa leave it as 3.5 v6 its part of the charm of having a small pick up

Yes!!!!🤘🏼

@@mikemissouri5152 that would be cool. I love ford but, I will admit that the 5.3 is one hell of a motor. They run FOREVER

New to truck market, what is the most important feature that should be considered regardless of brand when buying a half ton truck?

Derek that would depend on what you want to use the truck for. Myself for me now i want comfort, gas mileage, and reliability. Because of where i live i also want a 4x4.

You're asking truck advice from a guy that thinks reliability is important and says Chevy is the best. You should really be looking at Toyota's Tacoma/Tundra or Ford's F150 if you're looking full size. Hell, I'd even go so far as to say that from experience the Frontier is a good, capable mid size truck. Best advice is to stay as far FAR away from Chevy and GMC as you can though.

B T , Thank you! for your fine wisdom. he did say regardless of brand.

If you have any concern over reliability with the current truck market do some research > kzfaq.info/get/bejne/g6ebmcyH0Ki0j4U.htmlm47s

How’s that zr2 been treating you?

Yes, and let it be available on several different trims / engines. Would be nice for those of us who want to use a vehicle for it is designed for, and does NOT need all the fancy gadgets.

GM need to build the Silverado ZR2. That would be amazing. The also need to improve the ground clearance and the rear shocks mounting to low on the diff on the Colorado.

I would settle for better ground clearance

Roy Giller have you heard of chevys reaper?

alex malafy I don't believe the Reapers have the front locking differential, do they?

Yea nothing breaks down like a Chevy

Thank goodness! 🤣

Yet the previous Colorado was shit. Also comments the other manufacturer. I have no doubt a Tacoma can take a zr2. I really don't care for small trucks.

u suck dodges rule

mohammadkwt you are shit why talk about ram

Fadi Jiha lol fiat ram is garbage what do you know ?

mohammadkwt I know that you are a garbage...Fiat and Ram are beautiful and strong cars in their class ..try to get a Ram 2500 or 1500 or 1200 and see in your eyes

Fadi Jiha where have you been ? Chrysler been shit since year 2000 , owned by fiat got more shitty & no need to own any of their products unless if I want to be in a garage 24/7 , don’t to explain the whole thing because I’ve seen enough.

mohammadkwt I am in Syria..i bought a fiat cars called Sienna it's beautiful , strong, and fixed on the road ..i have 256000 km and I don't have problems and Issues...and FIAT buy Chrysler in 2009 not in 2000...i can't understand why you dislike their cars and if you have problems and listen from the people you should go to FIAT Chrysler company and explain your problems and Issues ,that make the company fix and maintain these problems, go and talk with the company and later the company will fix it

bgtx that’s exactly why I traded mine in, it was at the dealer broke more than I drove it.
