i was reading reviews about colorado and the article was saying horrible things about reliability and this is probably about gasoline version ??? and not about zr2-bison-duramax-diesel?? i was planning to purchase but i really got concerned. does anyone know if it is worth it to buy zr2-bison-duramax-diesel??
This rig tickles my interest. Being a Jeep guy, of course, I default to anything Stellantis will make. But a base, properly equipped Sport S Ecodiesel is still more expensive than a fully loaded Bison with the Duramax. It's a very compelling package.
there is an off-road mode! i didn't find it until after shooting this vid. push in on the 4x4 selector. d'oh! truck still heavily optimized toward off-road dynamics regardless though.

@@johnreno8909 I have a 2019 zr2 and my brother in law has one too. He has had 1 DEF issue that was fixed, he has 27k miles on his. I have 50k on mine with no issues, other than the stupid exhaust "fell off" (at 36k miles) while parked in my garage, it was a pretty easy to fix.
It’s a truck not a car ! Also the tow capacity for the ZR2 no mater gas or diesel is not 7700 or 7000. It’s more like 5000 or 5500, not sure which. Very poor review 👎🏼👎🏼
Given that there's no significant MPG increase when going from diesel to gas with the Colorado, I'd have a hard time justifying a diesel engine. I love diesel, but it's expensive at the pump and at the shop. DEF is no fun and the maintenance on diesel engines is more costly than gasoline. On something like a Wranger where there's a huge jump in fuel economy I could see it, but not here.
I agree. Unless you TOW or routinely go off road, the added torque isn't needed. DEF is a PITA, same for more expensive Ciesel fuel. For the highway xdriver...not worth it.
Guys, who said theres no difference in fuel between the gas and Diesel. The Diesel do 7 miles per gallon better then the Gas. Times 21 gallons from the tank its worth it for sure.
I love my ZR2 Duramax. My best truck ever.

There is an offroad mode which keeps the rpms up. Push the center of the drive selector dial to engage.
I’m glad i can just hear the GoPro tapping on the dash....
i guess I am kinda randomly asking but does anyone know of a good website to stream new tv shows online?
@Layton Tate lately I have been using FlixZone. You can find it by googling :)
@Layton Tate i would suggest FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
@Layton Tate i watch on FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)

luv it
All zr2 editions and bison only have a 5000lbs tow rating regardless of motor or transmission configuration
Cody Vance very interesting. I hadn’t seen that in research. Good to know. Disappointing, but good to know
I thought it was even lower than that? But yea it has to do with the suspension.

:23 secs in Puts window up after the fact!
mquez509 ja ja. I’d actually said “fuck yea bison” and was rolling window down to shout it
The torque is 369 in the diesel
Did you really just say the truck really proves itself to be amazing on gravel?.. gravel

Slap a tune on it and you'll be fine
I like my 3500 duramax more better of a truck
