I was hoping to see this comment. For some reason I think he thinks the alternator will act as less of a sacrificial load when the current load is reduced.
great video. i do have a question. i just bought the 2016 silverado LTZ and i dont have that collision alert feature . any idea why or how i turn it on if its not on my stearing wheel?
The collision alert feature is a camera system that's up by your rear view mirror. It would have a large black triangle when you look at it from the outside. Yours won't have this and its not something you can add after the fact, sorry.
I get it. England and just about everyone says Zed when you see a Z in the name. But if it says "LTZ" why pernounce it "LT.. Zed"? I'd just like to know the reason behind it
@@bigbeepus3039 The prices really vary depending on Condition, then kms/mileage and lastly age. All vehicles take the biggest depreciation in the first 3 years losing roughly 40% of their value and a 4yr old vehicle vs a 6yr old vehicle in the same condition and with the same kms will be worth nearly the same value you might only see a $1500 difference between them. So a good guide is if its in very good condition and is 4yrs old with 100,000kms on it its going to be worth roughly 50% of the original MSRP. Demand for used trucks is HIGH right now so don't overpay for a used truck as we expect demand to decrease by fall. Like I tell my wife, "There's always a good deal to be found"
1/2 ton junk. My 1985 Chevy 4x4 1/2 ton can take a beating. The newer 1/2 tons is basically a car and can’t handle being used as a truck. I own a 2016 Chevy fours wheel drive 3/4 and a 2005 Chevy four wheel drive 1 ton. My old 85 can keep up with HD trucks. A newer 1/2 would puke if put to the test.
It’s not. A friend of mine pulled it out of his 86 Blazer for a 6.0 swap. Its a real good runner. I’m gonna fresh up the top end and check out bottom end before installing. Thanks
Biggest piece of shit I ever bought. About to see if I have to replace the transmission after 3 years on my 2017. Conveniently just after power train warranty lapses. 45k lawn ornament at the moment.
Dads 2018 already about to get a new one built at 40k miles, they’re absolute pieces of shit 🤷🏻♂️ I bought a ram but my uncle has a 2014 ram with 160k miles and only issue it had was the exhaust manifold , along with the hemi tick that developed at 140k… the only newer trucks that came out ok were 15-17 5.0 f150s
An excellent review as anyone that sales these trucks, really knows the features
Thank you sir.
Thanks for watching!
Great review and in the market for this vehicle, but LED lights helping with fuel economy?

200 Hundred on the dash?
Wish you would have shown the backseat
LOL, great comment.
He did on the first truck.

Hayden Briggs that's how they pronounce it. "Zed" not "Zee".
I believe he’s foreign, the speedometer is in kilometers and the temps are celsius
@@QuantumPlayz He's not foreign where he is.
J Woods no shit Sherlock, he’s foreign to us, that’s why I’m calling him foreign...
Is this a great truck as a first truck??
For sure!
@@WesternGMDrumheller what is the price range today for them

Zeee not zeddddDDDDddd
lol I address this in my 2019 and 2020 videos, cheers!
Zed is the correct pronunciation
@@Honeybatger awesome!
ZED 71? IT'S Z71 GOOD BALL
In the UK and Canada they say "Z" as "zed". This dealer is in Alberta, Canada.
Good ball? Did you mean to say goofball in your ignorant comment and then not bother to proofread it?

I can't agree with the JUNK term but I can get behind your 85 being freckin' AWESOME, cheers!
Thank you about the 85. I’m gonna drop in a 1975 350ci truck motor after of mods.
@@kenlowe8659 Just make sure that old 350 isn't too tired we've seen that with some of those old engines that have been work horse's for so long.
