Excellent video, but would be nice to see under the hood with a close up on battery location, air filter and where oil filter is. Just nice to see that covered too..

Such an awesome mid-size truck!! Too bad many don’t realize how much potential it has!
My dealership trimmed up my front air dam on my 2020 colorado z71 4x4 off road and now I don't have to take it off works great
Informative comparison video; good job. The Eaton g80 auto rear diff locker is an available option on wt, Lt, and standard on z71 model, and looks like the zr2 has the gm performance cat back exhuast system that's an option not standard on z71 and lower trim levels. You can also option for gears that suit you best; 3.42/ 3.73/ 4.10 gear ratios. Everytime i hear you say Zed; I feel like your talking about nissan Z cars, and thats pretty cool in some ways as i loved my 370z, and I'm also happy with my 2018 Colorado 2wd with Eaton g80 autolocker. I liked the video, and subcribed to channel; keep up the good work. God bless, 🎼

The GM cat back is a option on the ZR2. ZR2 only has 3.42 OEM, after market for 4.10 or 4.56.
You need to make a video about the return of production in Oshawa. You should mention it whenever you do a video on the Silverado and Sierra.

U can get the 6 foot box on the zr2 but it has to be the extended cab/ the one with the shorter cab
Anyone else notice the fender flare missing from the right rear?? I just caught that and I've seen this video three times this guy is the exact same age as me and was born and raised in the same area I'm just as big a GM nut!!!
Thanks for this!

The ZR2 looks to me like it escaped from a body shop... before a new front bumper got installed.

Do they limit the locker use like jeep does? Like can you only use it in 4 low or can you use it in 4 hi or 2 hi for the back?

front lockers can only be used in 4L and rear lockers can be used in 4H or 4L
ZR2 is 2 inch higher than Z71 and DSSV shock. I guess that makes more comfortable for passengers who seat in the rear seats even onload driving. (of course offroad). Is that right? because front seats are pretty good when I test drive Z71 but rear seats are not that comfortable that is why I wanna purchase ZR2 for my children in the back seats. Please tell chevy to bring ZR2 to Korea ^^
If that’s the Midnight Edition ZR2 isn’t it missing the bars in the back and the off-road lights? My brother just bought a 2021 ZR2 Midnight Edition and it’s essentially the same truck but it has the bars with the ZR2 badge on both sides plus the off-road lights on top. Additionally all the Chevrolet and ZR2 badging + the the wheels are black, hence the Midnight Edition name.

I can only speak for the ZR2 because I own one. The lightbar is an option with the black wheels. That might just be an odd package on that Z 71. Black truck with black rims I see them often.

I was wondering the same thing, I just bought the 2020 midnight edition Z71. The only reason I can see that would make it hard is the Z71 has fog lights and the ZR2 doesn’t
THE SIX FOOT BOX IS AVAILABLE ON THE ZR2, IF YOU GET IT LIKE THAT THEN IT COMES IN EXTENDED CAB AND NOT CREW.

Just got a zr2 2021, well worth the extra money for the formula multimac shocks, natural lift, and better interior. The resale value alone makes it worth the money. Had to spend 1500 to get catback exhaust and air intake though cause it sounds like a Jetta lmao.

I have a rare package on my jeep renegade. Even though it's a pretty common car it gets treated like a show car. I got a color that isn't sold anymore and the sunroof isn't a normal size one 360° view and opens at to the back. Then there's the sound system and sports package that came with it.
What about mpg and tow rating?

ZR2 looks like ATV where Z71 is like a working truck.
I got the ZR2 to avoid that bluish interior! Yuck. Level the front and you can add 33”s on the ZR2. Looks way better with its 2” lift.

You must be colorblind. The interior is Grey w black. No blue anywhere. I put the 3.5 readylift on my Z71 and 33's all around. Now I've got a trailboss equivalent without ZR2 overprice.
That Z71 bumper will rip off if taken on a real trail. New ZR2 grill is ughhh. The tailgate is beautiful. ZR2 skids suck. It needs skids or it is a mall crawler. The on road ride is truly great. I’m saving up for Kings though.

The King shocks. Lots of people replace the DSSV when they leak. Kings and DSSV (and long travel Chevy Performance DSSV $$$$$) are the only options.
NO...!!! for what you are getting and the amount of extra cost, Hell NO to the ZR2...!!! Its not worth the extra cost... you can always add after market parts to a Z71 and still be way under that extra cost... The ZR2 is way over priced...
