I do really like seeing these videos with the older trucks making it up that course. Great video.

nice and strong truck ever,i took a 2001 duramax to mexico and i drove the same trails with 3000 pounds on top of it, with standar transmission 👍just the real and strong trucks can survive in the Mexican roads.

That's one damn good looking truck, and that's coming from a Yota guy.

Yep that truck with those tires shouldn't have any problems. The only weak point will be the break over angle but that is the case with any modern pickup.

Oh my god, is that a REAL truck? No auto-start-stop? No DEF? No massaging seats? A big engine? No power deployable running boards? But worst of all, NO 12 INCH SCREEN???? No nonsense to break down? No air suspension? And whats that sound Im hearing? Could it be... The engine? Woowe I havent heard that in a while. And what is that it looks like? Could it be........ A TRUCK?? Im in love. Not to mention its just as capable if not more capable off road then any truck today. Edit: And its reliable. Amazing, Isn't it?

My truck has the G80 locking rear diff too and I have to say that it helps out a lot traction wise. It is also really fun drifting it in the snow and doing posi burnouts too.

I love when you guys are using the older trucks! would be awesome to see these trucks going up the Ike gauntlet!

I'm glad Andre keeps this truck around. It looks, sounds, and preforms great.

Bad Ass video Guys . I have a 03 2500 hd with a 6.0L and 410 rear end in it with over 250,000 miles on it and it will climb like no tomorrow . You got to love the old chevys

i love the older trucks. I've had my 2500 yukon 6.0 on trails similar to this and relied only on the g80, never really had to put it in 4 wheel drive except once in 4 low to pull a car hauler tractor trailer off of a part of a parking lot where he bottomed out. I was a GM world class tech and i think these older trucks are the best of the best.

Did you fix the transfer case on your truck? There is a known issue with all of the 2002 trucks were the oil pump in the transfer case will wear through the mag case and you loose all of the oil. I fixed my truck and my Dad's 2003 with a upgrade kit from Merchant Automotive, a great piece of insurance.

Bizarre issue on the NP261/263 transfer cases. (Used to work for a rebuilder, so I've seen the guts of many of these) The oil pumps were not physically mounted to any hardpoint but were simply held in place by what amounted to flanges that set into the casing. During use the pump would vibrate, effectively rubbing hard steel against the aluminum side and thus rubbing a small hole in the spot where the pump was. Saw more than a few 'patched' with a short sheet metal screw, later versions had a thin steel band added to the case in that spot to drastically reduce the wear.

According to specs I read, this Duramax was 235 hp and changed to 300 hp in 2004.

The locker makes all the difference no matter what kind of truck you have. This is evident since he did "stage 1" in 2wd with no problems. Should have known stages 2 and 3 would be easy. I just wish GM would give their trucks a bit more ground clearance. Nice vid.

Take a look at the readings of your injectors, it seems to be puffing blue when you start it up and when you give it gas.

Great video! You guys should do more older vehicle reviews!

I swear Nathan has such a heart on for the power wagon

Next video should be Nathan's Tacoma, Andre Silverado, and Roman Raptors challenging gold mine hill. Would be an awesome video.

Awesome Video! The diesels do a great job off-road. You should do this 2002 2500 Duramax and Mr. Trucks Super Duty on the Ike Gauntlet. I bet they are fairly evenly matched, the Duramax should do better on fuel efficiency and the 6.2 gas should be a little faster, but I bet it will be close.

i have a crew cab long bed 02 f250, you are either dedicated and have to go down the trail or have to back all the way out because there is usually no place to turn around.... especially on some of those trails around fort collins/boulder.

I wish i had a truck like that all i got is a two wheel drive 6.0 with the 4 speed giving me 3000 rpm in highway speeds

I have the same truck ccsb same color and tires lol. Mines tuned, studded, fass 150, intake and exhaust, and build trans.

Man that's a really nice truck

to be fare next time you do a Old VS New gold mine hill. Try and have the same set of tires on every true k if you can that way it's extremely fare. Great show keep it up guys

Damn nice truck. This was the first exhaust clip tall have done that was impressive lol
