2021 Chevrolet Silverado Trail Boss Custom Review and Off-Road Test

[buster]

6.2L Ecotec3 V8 with the 10spd auto. 0-60 5.5 seconds. Can tow up to 13,000lbs. It has an Eaton rear autolocker which apparently you hear slam when engaged.

Did you change your mind, Buster ?

If they'd modernize the interior they would be onto something.

IDK-the front of that truck has a face only a mother could love-IMHO.
But they (Silverado/Sierra) were the biggest selling truck(s) last year. So-what do I know......

ugliest of the big 3

Grill and front is teribad.

at least they sorta fixed the wheel area. I say sorta.. its still odd.

At the risk of sounding like a Ram cheerleader.. anyone shopping trucks should test drive a Ram. you owe it to yourself.

No I just never saw this version.

I think it looks great. Oddly, I prefer the lower trim level Chevrolet grille to the upper trims with the bowtie grilles. That's a lot of truck for the money.

 

[buster]

I like the looks of it and the power of the 6.2L.

 

[4WD]

This is how you make that grill blend in … now it needs bigger tires for the body size/stance etc …

I like several things about this , and hate others.

1. 13k towing, nice, i wonder what rear end is in it, how it compares to a 2500.
2. KEYS! yes!
3. Front bench seat that can seat 3 !!
4. 6.2 !
5. It has the same steps on the corners that my avalanche has.
6. The model in the video did not have silly blind spot light up mirrors.
7. The front bumper is black and not painted to match the truck.

Downsides for me would be
1. Its awd, not a 2wd with selectable 4wd hi/low
2. The tail gate is electric, um no.
3. Mirrors are too small for a truck.


Can it be had without carpet?

2. The tail gate is electric, um no.

It's just a "popper" with a soft open. It's not motorized.

OK! Whew thats better!
Even though i don't really even like electrics at all on a tailgate.

 

[OilReport99]

I will probably get back to Chevy after this Ram...For me, it's just more comfortable.

 

[DuckRyder]

I like the concept.

Will the 7.4 fit in an F150?

That system, i'm ok with. Apparently he does not know. I was under the impression, from his review, that its full time awd.

Thanks to you and dishdude for the info!
