​​​@@dboatright2497 I agree. They (GM) literally have one of, if not the most advanced semi-autonomous driving aids currently available to consumers. Yet in most of GM's fleet, adaptive cruise control isn't standard. This is outright theft for not making basic cruise control standard. Most of the Koreans and Japanese brands have made adaptive cruise control standard. This is despite not having a more advanced semi-autonomous driving aid. They are spitting in our faces for not making basic control standard.

@Chris Marbrey stuff like that, I'm fine with. Not every state requires it. None of my vehicles have a front plate. So if they can lower the cost on items that people don't need and then charge those that want to add it, all good. I get why people are miffed about the cruise control. But it's a work truck. Many WTs are bought for city use and companies don't care about the cruise control function if its being driven in city and short distances. The Trail Boss is the bare essentials with the lift for off road use. If you want cruise control, and most private buyers do, it's a $375 fee in the package. I get why GM did it. Those who add everything on.... well... usually end up debating why they don't just get the Z71 or ZR2. Because that is what they are doing. It costs less for a reason.

I added a leather steering wheel with radio controls to my 2020 Silverado Custom. I had to swap out the instrument cluster and run a wire for it to work but it was really simple and took 20 mins to install. Unsure what exactly is needed with the new Colorado but swapping a wheel would be a start since they have only one cluster available.

With andre’s contacts with the manufactures he should ask a GM engineer if it’s possible at add cruise control after the fact

My 2023 Canyon Denali landed on Tuesday and I picked it up last night. It's a huge upgrade over the second generation trucks :)

Thanks guys 👏👏👏 have a good day everyone

I love your new truck! Built several variations already online. Only wish you could get the winch kit like on the canyons and a LED headlight upgrade.

Do you have to check a box to get intermittent wipers? I remember when you would have to. Along with FM radio, tilt steering wheel, and mirror on the sun visors.

The dealer added cruise control doesn't change the steering wheel. It's on a short stalk behind the left side of the steering wheel.

I’d love to see a price and features comparison between andres Colorado and the stubby ram. To show how far your money can get you in mid size and full size.

On Chevrolet Trax LS, Cruise Control was not standard. Found out it was software locked to the VIN, and even when the dealer would upgrade the steering wheel, the switches for Cruise would not be recognized by the Trax' computer. I hope your situation is different. Can I suggest using a 'Dark' mode web browser behind you guys for better contrast on camera? And speaking of black interiors, the Honda Pilot Trailsport is an inky black hole inside....like a claustrophobic black cavern.

XL 22 mavericks had no cruise, ford made it standard in 23. It was a $300 or so project to add an escape steering wheel with cruise buttons or a stand alone stalk on the column that added cruise.

I know this is of course an old example but my 2005 wt Colorado didn't come with cruise control and I only needed to add the cruise control switch and it was plug and play. It didn't show up on the display but it still worked. A flash by gm and it would have showed up on the display but I didn't bother. Who knows, you may get lucky and it's plug an play, possibly reflash.

I have been waiting for this, Andre!

Just to let Canadians know the Canyon on ALL trims comes in with4x4 and high output engine on all trims. 4x2 only on the Colorado WT and maybe on the LT trim also

I'm surprised the Chevrolet app doesn't give you the range and remote start capabilities. I got vehicle diagnostics through my app for my Acadia by tapping the vehicle status section. And for my vehicles, I didn't subscribe to the OnStar services, but got the connectivity through the WiFi subscription only.

I’m sure that you could have an aftermarket cruise control installed, though it wouldn’t be “adaptive”. I had one put on a new Nissan Frontier a number of years ago.

Very cool vehicles fellas Really nice truck Andre

They got that color from the movie Vertical Limit. The Nitro they use to blow up the snow leaks out ant it is that exact color. Really cool color. Would look good on a corvette also

Its not your fault about the cruise control. $40,000 truck in 2023 that should be standard. I'm actually surprised its not for things like fuel economy ratings since most drivers would see best MPG with cruise control. I'm really interested in the new Colorado. If I sell a second car I have soon I may be looking to get one.

Hey andrea i'm in the 12 volt aftermarket industry I have installed a lot of cruise controls there is a company called rostra They design cruise controls for many vehicle They can definitely help you out

Crazy thing is I legit cannot remember the last time I actually turned on cruise control in either of my personal vehicles or my work one....

Standard packaging can be very odd. I had a 2000 Chevy S10 Blazer ZR2 with auto headlights. I also had a 2015 Toyota RAV4 XLE with no auto headlights. Made no sense. Yet I still had cruise control haha.

Take the owner of the LT Colorado and run it through your unloaded MPG loop alongside your Trail Boss with the mud terrains. I'm interested in the real MPG difference between the two.

Don't feel bad Andre, I forgot the tow package when I ordered my truck. Just got all happy and forgot.

I have the Hyundai BlueLink service on my 2020 Hyundai Kona. My complimentary 3 years of that service just came up for renewal. I was quoted $120 for both the BlueLink safety package and the remote start app (they are available a La carte if you don’t want both). That $120 price is a 40% discount for a year subscription. The app offers quite a bit and I keep BlueLink active as it will call for help in the event of an airbag deployment.

On my 2017 Silverado the app for free for the life of my ownership as long as I used it a certain time frame, great! My new 2023 Silverado offer basic functions in app for 3 years but if I want all the stuff to work I have to pay and pay and pay again. Not sure I like that change but they have said they want to be a Technology company. I've owned 4 Chevy trucks sure wish you could recognize my brand loyalty with a better package for the tech necessary to fully realize the powerful things the truck can do.

I like the Canyon AT4. In my opinion its what the trail boss should have been (a mix between the Z71 and Trail Boss). Even the Canyon Elevation is really nice but when you play with the configurator you notice that when you add the things you will want to the Elevation trim you are almost the same cost as the AT4.

This is why the trims are where they are at. Some don't want the fluff and want the bare essentials while avoiding the cost. Once you add on the fluff... you're left with: why not just get the z71 or 7r2? Or in the case of the Elevation.... why not just get the At4x?

How much

I have a question for you guys. I have a 2021 ZR2. The exterior measurement says it is 72.5 inches. The 2023 AT4 ( which I just ordered) shows 79.80 inches height, but it is now measured from the top of the antenna….not the roofline. I added the 20 inch wheels, but how much taller ( or lower) is the 2023 AT4 when compared to the ZR2?? The ZR2 ( and AT4X) have a 3 inch lift kit, whereas the AT4 is only 2 inch.

The picture of the Colorado next to the Tacoma reminds me of a video where a guy had to put a stubby antenna on his 2nd gen Colorado because his garage has a low ceiling. I noticed that new condos have a tiny garage and now mid size trucks are getting a stock lift so will they fit in a modern garage with a low ceiling? My old vehicle had cruise control but when it stopped working I didn't get it fixed because it was a cheap car. Eventually I adapted to not having cruise control and don't even use it on my current vehicle. It may take a few weeks but you will become accustomed to driving without cruise control and then you won't even use it when you drive other vehicles.

I have never had a truck, but feel like it would be good choice for my next vehicle. I dont tow, but do take on home improvement projects periodically. I would be all in on a midsized but we are a family of 4. Torn between a gladiator and something like a silverado. Would love to get Andres long term assessment coming from a full size to mid-sized and how much he misses the extra bed/room. Reason for Gladiator is it checks lots of boxes...convertible, truck, manual, 4x4.

Ya I have the 2022 work truck I don't need all toy's it has the v6 with cruse control and trailer brakes and towing package its all good

I feel like it would be cheaper and easier to just trade it in for a like model with cruise. Youll have to wait a few months probably but in the end itll be much easier.

I agree with the thoughts regarding pricing....vehicle prices are ridiculously high; however, people continue to pay far above MSRP. You get what you ask for.....

The poop icon over the Trail Boss headlight in the thumbnail...😂 No LED headlights in the Trail Boss is just one of the reasons I'm ordering a Canyon AT4.

I wonder if they will ever bring something back like the zq8 package like they had on the old s10

You can upgrade to HO engine if you order the work truck with the plus engine.

So im really curious there is a difference in fuel mileage between the chevy and gmc. Im curious if the the tune makes it drop that much more

The Colorados need to take a page from the 07-13 Silverado’s and make the back seats a floating style with nothing under it. My god, the room would be great. Come on GM!!!!

The Maverick not having cruise control was only for 2022. They introduced it for 23. I’m 99% sure if that. But then again the 22 MY was meant to be the lowest cost option so it made sense on the XL. Same as the now dead F150 XL 100A package. Where cruise control missing on your truck does not make sense.

One of the things I need to do is load a 13.7 ft. fishing kayak with a T tow extender in the bed. When I bought my new truck in 2017 I wanted a mid size truck with a long bed option as well as a crew cab. I ended up with a Colorado LT V6 4x4 crew cab long bed. I love almost everything about both of the new GM midsize trucks except the lack of a long bed. I have no desire to get another full size truck so if they don't plan to offer it it's a no go for me. The Tacoma and the Frontier both offer that option and we will see if Toyota still offers it on the new Tacoma when it comes out. I still really like my Colorado but when it comes time to replace it I will be looking for a long bed midsize truck.

I would think cruise is standard these days-especially on that level truck

That Trail Boss is based on the WT! That's why it does not have have cruise control standard.

I'm pretty sure that your going to have to go after market to install cruise control into your vehicle . From what I've done most fords where easy to install cruise control it was just install the switches into the steering wheel and then go to the computer and turn that feature on. Now a days they don't let us do that any more I've looked to see if the cruise control can be turned on but on the new trucks changes are that you may not be able to. Even though all the computer uses is just a signal from the switches and then the computer tells the vehicle to hold at what ever speed . But it sounds like your going to have to go old school and no cruise control

I can't blame Andre too much on forgetting CC. I'm more surprised on GM for not making that feature STANDARD.

I wanna get a GMC Canyon Elevation or the AT4 I'm undecided on the colour. I like the Blue, but if it comes in the same yellow I might get that and I'll make sure I have cruise control.

Andre, can you get an aftermarket cruise control for your Trailboss?

The 2023 xl maverick comes with cruise control wich is the most basic trim level and you dont need to add it

From what I can tell the Trail Boss is just the work truck with the off road equipment. It is similar to the Silverado Custom Trail Boss, basic but off rad capable. That is why it doesn’t have cruise standard.

I seriously looked at ordering a new 2023 GMC Canyon. Seems like everything is an option. Price was very high for a mid size truck. Ended up getting a 2022 GMC Canyon AT4. My dealer gave me $5,500 off msrp. Extremely happy with truck.
