    Anyone else notice the fender flare missing from the right rear?? I just caught that and I've seen this video three times this guy is the exact same age as me and was born and raised in the same area I'm just as big a GM nut!!!

    Just got a zr2 2021, well worth the extra money for the formula multimac shocks, natural lift, and better interior. The resale value alone makes it worth the money. Had to spend 1500 to get catback exhaust and air intake though cause it sounds like a Jetta lmao.

    Informative comparison video; good job. The Eaton g80 auto rear diff locker is an available option on wt, Lt, and standard on z71 model, and looks like the zr2 has the gm performance cat back exhuast system that's an option not standard on z71 and lower trim levels. You can also option for gears that suit you best; 3.42/ 3.73/ 4.10 gear ratios. Everytime i hear you say Zed; I feel like your talking about nissan Z cars, and thats pretty cool in some ways as i loved my 370z, and I'm also happy with my 2018 Colorado 2wd with Eaton g80 autolocker. I liked the video, and subcribed to channel; keep up the good work.

  • @kimbukbuk4287
    @kimbukbuk4287 2 роки тому

    ZR2 is 2 inch higher than Z71 and DSSV shock. I guess that makes more comfortable for passengers who seat in the rear seats even onload driving. (of course offroad). Is that right?
    because front seats are pretty good when I test drive Z71 but rear seats are not that comfortable that is why I wanna purchase ZR2 for my children in the back seats.
    Please tell chevy to bring ZR2 to Korea ^^

    If that’s the Midnight Edition ZR2 isn’t it missing the bars in the back and the off-road lights? My brother just bought a 2021 ZR2 Midnight Edition and it’s essentially the same truck but it has the bars with the ZR2 badge on both sides plus the off-road lights on top. Additionally all the Chevrolet and ZR2 badging + the the wheels are black, hence the Midnight Edition name.
