Great video! It looked like a really awesome time and that new Colorado bison is very impressive.

Great review and great colorado's

Guys, this looks incredible!! Holy crap that new Bison looks great! 💪

I wish the Bisons could tow the full 6,000lbs. That’s why I like my Z71 and am slowly saving to get all the Bison mods.

FYI… if you add all the Bison parts, you should treat it as such and not tow all the way up to 6,000 lbs.

I'm a little jelly about your trip. Looks like you guys a ton of fun. I kind of want the new Bison now :)

This truck is a step in the right direction as far as stock offroad vehicles in my book but my biggest gripe is the pay payload. If you have 2 200 lbs dudes in there then you've only got 600lbs left to play with. If you have a hard shell mount that's 200-300 lbs less. You can't really configure an ultimate overland rig with this truck even though it is building towards it.

@donrichter3523

@ivaniuk123, I know it seems payload is low, but…..it’s already armored. Buy a regular truck and load it down with bumpers and skid plates and you are quickly at the same numbers. It’s just how it is.

Have they fixed the throttle issues in the newer Colorados?

Great truck and review! Can’t wait for the markups on these when they arrive at dealerships 😂. How was it driving on the highway? Comfortable? Tire noise and wind noise?

@PNW_Bison

7 ай бұрын

Honestly, it was great on highway. We drove it for about an hour on road before hitting the desert. The Bison is a bit heavier than the standard ZR2, and it feels it. A little less pep in the acceleration, but not bad by any means. We tested the back to back, so we could tell, but otherwise I think people will be very happy with the Bisons on-road performance. And surprisingly quiet! Thanks for watching!

No regear, 35s, heavier armor and only 1000 lbs payload. I wonder how this truck is gonna do if you add a camper like GFC (on the light side) or Alu Cabin (on the heavier side). Wonder if that 4 cylinder is going to struggle like my 4Runner with just a roof tent 😅. Do you guys think this truck will make a good adventure build? I’m kind of disappointed they couldn’t figure out how to mount that spare time better. Sure you can get an aftermarket swing gate but that’ll just make the back camera useless. No doubt it’s capable but the payload sacrifice is a little too much.

@PNW_Bison

7 ай бұрын

@@whocaresjustdoit I hear ya. For reference the payload is nearly identical to the last Gen Bison. I have a CBI Rack and GFC RTT and it handles it with no issues, but I definitely chose a lighter build with that in mind. The new engines higher HP/Torque will definitely help driveability over last Gen. Of course it remains to be seen how an Overland build setup will stress these turbo 4 cylinders. There is a great engineer interview about these engines specifically out on KZread, I wish I could remember who did it, but they talked about how they built it off of the learnings they gathered from the diesel engine and made it very robust. I truly hope that's the case. It's a great watch if you can find it.

They actually aren’t. Just different programming with the transmission. I’m curious if regearing will be a common modification now that they’re out. When we drove it didn’t feel slow but the gas mileage was pretty poor.

Give us a 400hp v6 or v8 with over 500hp.

Ranger raptors are more of a high speed desert runner and Bisons are more for off road adventures and rocky roads. They are both purpose built machines. It depends what you want it for - although the ranger has way more horsepower for sure!
