Honestly who TF is paying the crazy amounts of money these companies want for these trucks
The 1%

If you get the gasser it’s really not bad at all. I’m probably gonna throw 30k down and finance the rest. I’m 36. Anybody my age who has a decent job should be able to swing that. I don’t think I’m that abnormal. 110k salary, no kids. Wife is a nurse and makes 96k.
@@theoptimistictraveler3558so you throw 30k down and finance the rest… that’s still well north of 1k per month for a vehicle payment. As long as there are folks out there willing to pay these ridiculous prices, these manufacturers will continue to charge absorbent amounts. 80k for a truck is insane.
@@markk764It’s $808 a month. I got 3% interest through my credit union. I have no student loans. My part of mortgage is $1200 a month. I max out my IRA the 1st of every year and max out my 401k every year. Put as much as I can in my brokerage account. I’ll be retired at 58. I grew up extremely poor in East TN, joined the Army, went to college on GI Bill and got into Biotech. Nobody helped me make those decisions. Just take a little bit of ownership of your life and stop blaming everyone else. 72K is a decent price for this truck.
So glad GM is making affordable trucks that someone with an average income can afford. I would definitely pay 25k for this beauty.
😂😂I agree!! Maybe throw in an apple pie for the receptionist
Brother Joe those are 34 and half inches or so. It’s the half ton ZR2 that comes with 33s. None the less this is a bad ass truck and the paint combo is very cool.
Thanks for the intel
Picked up on that as well lol. They are 34.8 to be exact, or in other words what the modern world refers to as a 35. 👍 He did correct himself later in the video however!
Happy new year to the Raiti's family!!
Such a beautiful truck, not only looks amazing but also is very practical.
Same to you Omar! I am so glad that you like this one.
Torque and towing capacity is AMAZING. Well done Chevrolet. Thanks Joe.
I love it. I have zr2 2500 HD 2024 on black, look almost like midnight edition. I have 1400 miles and it's badass. Thanks Chevy for building eye candy truck.
That is so fantastic to hear!
Joe , It's good thing for towing personal plane 😅.975 lb-ft of torque is mind-blowing.
HAPPY NEW YEAR 2024 to you and Lori ❤❤
You are so right about that Jack! Same to you!
Awesome big boy truck (big toys for big boys), it is a bit expensive but its is a 2500HD so it is a stump puller with a great diesel engine and transmission. If it was only a 1500 Silverado I would say (no way) is it worth the $80,000+ price tag. More and more car the pickup prices are stupidly high today. Great Review and Happy New Year to Joe, Lori and Steven and all here !
We appreciate you being so supportive! Happy New Year!
Cheap trucks still are being made my guy
Dont hear people bitching about 100k Macon's, 100 plus vets and other sport models plus 85 k suvs. If your a truck guy this is practical
For daily use and offroad. I own one and never regretted getting 2500 hd zr2 turbo diesel. This is 3/4 ton 18000 lb rated trailering plus offroad capable.
As of this evening, it looks like the dealer has that truck listed at over $90k.
Can you say….No Way José?!
Oh wow!
Exactly why I decided to go with the Ram 2500 Power Wagon. It looks great, has better off road capabilities, and the dealer sold me a 23 for $15K under the $83265 MSRP. The Chevy ZR2's are great trucks, but when the payments come in, it makes a difference. p.s., the Ram has a great interior and technology too.
Imagine getting suckered into financing this thing, making the worst investment of your life. Good luck to the sucker. They've done lost their minds with these prices 😂
Happy New Year Joe & Lori….. May 2024 be prosperous 🎉
Same to you and yours.
Love your videos, informative and yet entertaining at the same time keep up the good work
That is really awesome of you to say Keith!
Happy New Year Raiti’s Rides family!!!!! 🎉🥳
We appreciate you so much!
I bought mine last Friday we love it!
That is so wonderful to hear!
@@RaitisRides it’s our new work horse we were worried how it was gonna tow but it does great for anyone worried about how the suspension affects tow!
Happy new year Joe, Lori & Steven.
You are the best
Happy New Year Apostle Joe I hope you & Lorie are doing good and I love your video on the Chevy Silverado ZR2 2500 HD.
Thanks Luis ! You are the best
@@RaitisRides You are welcome.
U forgot to mention one of the pluses for that offload package...the over spray on the bottom of the doors so it won't get damaged from rocks spraying up
On the fence but I’m either going to order ZR2 or a High Country soon. Gas either way for me. ZR2 would be a bit unique but the high country with blue interior has me interested as well to set it apart from most. You can black out those badges with a package selection.
That’s awesome. I just have one question. Was is it that you do, that allows you to afford this truck? Serious question haha
@@Johnny-Cage farming has been good! And I’ve driven the same truck for the last ten years. About time for a new one I think. Doesn’t hurt that it’ll save a few thousand come tax time either.
You have a tough decision to make!
If I was GM I’d raise prices every single year if folks are going to buy it. Then there’s buyers saying, oh you’re complaining about the cost cause you can’t afford it, lol. So they over pay to be able to show that they can afford a 100k truck, smh. Got to love the way companies take advantage of folks mindset.
These are tax write-offs for companies. Most "folks" don't have a need for THIS much truck. If you want it to stroke your ego, ego has a price. Other than that this is a company truck that has 30% YOY depreciation tax write-off value for 3-4 years. Thus making this around a 35-50k truck when all is said and done.
Joe and Lori and Steve keep up the good work real true and I love the video real true 👍happy new year 🎉
Happy New Year to you brother man!
Among being a stellar review, you worked in a , "Steven likes easy access things", the Power Glove, and "be a gift giver not a taker"...who does that? Raitis Fricken Rides does,!! Awesome !
You are so awesome! Thanks for being so supportive!
I've watched I think all of your truck reviews. Seems like you really like driving this one the most. And the suspensions absorbs the bumps well. That is key for people who use these as their daily driver as well as towing for work. I am trying to find the smoothest riding HD... thanks
I agree. It is one of the most comfortable HD's I have driven.
Thanks for the reply and making great review videos!
They actually have a black out package for the logos Joe. I think it’s like $350 big ones . No blasting !
Had three Silverado HDs, most recent, a 2019 LT, great truck, but i got tired of 11 MPG, bought a Tundra Limited Crewmax, 6.5 ft bed, LOVE IT, and i'm averaging 18MPG,
Thanks for sharing that ownership input Michael!
I’ve never had a Silverado HD get 11mpg and I’ve owned 3 😂
1 diesel L5P (17 avg) and 2 of them 6.0 gassers
You can’t compare them to a grocery getter anyways
Happy new year!!!
Thank you so much!
@@RaitisRides no problem!
Happy new year Joe glad you got this beautiful truck
Thanks my friend!
@@RaitisRides did u buy this or are u doing a review on it
Recently sold my 2018 Silverado HD LT, bought a 24 Tundra limited, much better truck, better value, the JBL sound system is better than the Bose I had in the Silverado ,, I also got the panoramic moonroof, can’t even get that in the Silverado LTZ , and my whole back windshield goes down, BETTER TRUCK
under rated
channel for sure
What a beast
Tell me about it!
Holy cow ! the size of this thing is unreal
It is a beast for sure!
Ha ha, I was just on the Chev website dreaming, and playing with build options for one of these and a C8 ERay the other night.
That is a nice way to day dream
I’ll love to be this guy camera man lol never a dull moment 😂
Steven appreciate you saying that and you better believe it!
@@RaitisRides Steven doing an awesome job! Next to Lori lol you guys keep them coming!
Happy new year Joe , thanks for your excellent work 👍🏻👍🏻
That really means so much Felix!
Yes of course Joe and I really like this truck.
I’m glad that you like this one.
I had one of these awesome trucks on order, but ended up getting a 2023 Ram Power Wagon for about $20K cheaper. Great review as always. Chevy makes a great truck. I had a 2020 Trail Boss with a 6.2 that had zero problems. The new Ram Power Wagon has a winch and front lockers. Hi Lori. Happy New Year to you both. If possible, do another Power Wagon review. It's been about 3 years since your last. Twinkies for all..!!!
Thanks for sharing your great insight Dan! Congrats on your new Power Wagon!
I have a 2018 Power Wagon. I'm switching to the ZR2 2500 for towing capacity. The Power wagon only tows 10,500, the ZR2 tows 18,500. Not sure why Ram can't figure out a way to make a Power Wagon that can tow.
@@tyleradair8084 They did kinda,,, they have the Ram 2500 Rebel. It has the Cummins turbo diesel. It has a little over 16K towing capacity. I do like the ZR2, they are great trucks, but the money just was a factor. Good luck with your new truck. I know it will treat you right.
the power wagon is an amazing truck as well
Personally I’m looking at the Colorado ZR2 over this but awesome review as always! That dealer a good one, one of the few in Clearwater
You are so very right John!
This is an amazing truck!! Gotta love the off road capability on them!!! Heat review👏👏👏🤩🤩 Also Happy New Year!! 🥳🥳🎉🎉
I am so glad that you are digging this one. Happy New year to you!
Happy New Year!! Joe started with big boys' toy!!
He yeah brother!
wooooohhhh, happy new year chevrolet 2024, hello abri vary from dominican republic😄
Happy new year my friend!
ohhhhh happy welcome tu Dominican Republic, raitis ridesGracias✌@@RaitisRides
Love the review Joe! Got a chance to see this bad boy at the LA auto show.
Any chance you can get your hands on the High Country version?
I will track one down for you!
Hey Raiti! This ZR2 2500 HD is one bad mama jama! Speaking of Silverado, do you think the 1500 will get a redesign this year?
I don’t think so yet
It already have been
Saw the title and without watching the video, I can tell you the answer is no 😂 but I'll still watch the video
Thanks for watching I really appreciate it!
Happy New Year Joe🎉🌟💚🧨🙂.
I really appreciate you saying that Brandon!
It needs a lot more gloss black it would look more aggressive
I feel like you’re being sarcastic
@@RaitisRides I just think gloss black makes a car look better, flat black gets so faded it almost turns white
Yeah but gloss black is cheap plastic. Don’t see them putting it on +90K truck. That would be pathetic
@@crispe824 it’s not cheap plastic fool , all that damn flat black crap ages a lot worst
@@crispe824 damn flat black crap looks like $hit
No truck is worth as much as a house used to cost in the 1980's....insane. also, who actually needs a ginormous truck? I love that chevy calls one of their Silverado the trail boss! What freaking trail is that going to fit in or on??
Things have changed and not for the better Tony!
You can still buy the base model my guy which actually has been cheaper adjusted for inflation.
New trims for top of the line have been made hence the AVERAGE going up. But starting point has kept with inflation.
Back then you had maybe 2-3 trims. Now you got 10
comparing the 80s to 2024 is insane!......cannot compare prices from 50years ago, every single product has shot up in cost.....including houses
Happy new year to all!
That is so nice of you to say!
They make a black badge package for this truck I believe its called "dark essentials" (like 250$) but it should just be standard on this color and the silver.
Throw an extra “ball” on that sandwich. Haha! Gold
Thank you for letting me share the laughs and the truck with you!
Amazing review Joe.
I am so glad that I could bring it to you.
Wow, primer gray, never seen that color on a pick up before.
Great job on the review Raiti! Love the truck, was looking at a Power Wagon, I would much rather have this! Please review the gas V8! Thank you for the entertainment, such a pleasure to watch! 👊
That really means the world! Thank you for your support!
Love the look thinking of trading in my Tacoma trd off road for this what you guys think 😊
Ye, they look great. But for 90 K, man that's a lot money. They are also available in Australia, limited market. They have been converted to RHD, the conversion is amazing you wouldn't think it has been converted, has GM backing and warranty. They are 163 K, Australian dollars, around 110 USD. Nick Melbourne Australia
Your so funny and entertaining joe, we like you🤣❤😂
I am so glad that I can share the laughs and the trucks with you!
Nice truck
I’m glad that you are digging this one
They actually do have a blacked out badge option for that I believe
Love this dudes vid. I laughed so much
Happy New Year, everyone.
You are the best David! Same to you man!
Good job joe. Good job Steven
I was told that this grey color is not available till 3rd quarter 2024 but you have one there. Is that your truck or is it a chevrolet demo that they sent down?
Trying to buy one right now and cant even locate one.
Is it a 5 seater or does have the 6th pop up seat in front middle?
Exact color /truck im gonna be buying . My 2017 1500 isn’t doing it for me 😂
but are they still having class action lawsuit lifter issues? i wouldnt pay even $10k for an unreliable vehicle. but i would pay 80k for a reliable truck
How do you get them to let you borrow it? I want to do that😊😊
Is that the slate grey colour?
Awesome truck. I don't like sun roofs anyway so small is fine.
agreed, could careless and they also break if going offroad from twisting and flexing....plus sound cancellation is better without
how much does a camper shell cost for these? I want to buy one for my husband but the prices are ALL over the place when I google it
my dream truck -- gonna wait till I can pickup a clean used one
Fingers crossed that happens soon for you!
Only trucks worth the money were the raptor and trx and that was only before they jacked up the price on both. Every other truck on the market is not worth the price. Paying extra for a diesel is absolutely worth it, but trucks in general are not worth their absurd msrp
and the TRX is being discontinued......
@@robvange true, but it's getting replaced with something else at least
@@jp23xyeah a 6cylinder with less then 500hp and 600 torque
I appreciate you sharing your honest opionion!
@@DiaperSNiFFER it won't be the beast that the trx was, but it also won't start at close to 100k.
I honestly can’t believe that Chevy has yet to add a full panoramic sunroof like how Ford does with its trucks.
That’s the final touch that it missing imo.
United we stand...stop being taken advantage of...hashtag not me movement..keep it up..its working great so far..
The next truck i get will be a 2500. By me just getting a 2023 1500 in dec 22, it will be a while before i get one of these. Love that grey too.
That is really fantastic!
will never own another 1/2 ton....been back and forth and 3/4 is so much more capable while still providing a stellar ride.....plus a 6'10 box is standard
I like this, dude he’s funny. I know he can sell a truck like it ain’t nothing. I just look at this. Just laugh at him. He’s cool man I like the truck.
The truck is listed at Dimmit for $89, 259. It's gone up in value since your video.
I love mine. Have a 2024 3500 GMC Denali Ultimate and will prob sell it now both great trucks though
Your 11.2 inches joke didnt go unnoticed 😂😂
Is that truck better or the AT4 ?
No I am still going AT4!
these have been out for 6 months i have yet to see ONE on the road
I think I found my truck. I do love Long Johns Silvers.
That is awesome! It sounds like it is meantto be.
OK Joe. Cummins. Duramax. Powerstroke. 2024. You get your pick. Which one are you putting in your driveway and why?
I pre ordered my LTZ MIDNIGHT EDITION Z71 fully loaded for 67,500. Not too bad.ZR2 is too much off road money options. Plus it’s a good sec-179 business write off 🤙🏽
That is fantastic! Congrats!
20211 USS NORTH CAROLINA
I wish I waited for 2024 but I don’t mind my 2022 high country gasser but the 24 does look better and the duramax 😍
2024 Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD Heavy-Duty ZR2 6.6L Duramax Diesel Allison 10-Speed Automatic Crew Cab 4X4!
You nailed it again Scott!
What was the paint color called? And what vehicles does it come on?
That is a crazy!
Can you get the long bed in the ZR2?
No you can not.
Do two video’s please
I tried, but I couldn't get it done.
price is alot better than Ford or Ram......76k if you get the gas version and probably get a few grand off, not cheap but not ultra stupid like 105k......Chevy is best bang per buck in full size market....my 23 H.C. 2500 was 67k before TTL
GM is the only one with 4x4 auto in HD trucks, so nice to have
Maybe do a comparison vid with the Ford f250 tremor?
Are these trucks reliable?
Hey..Joey You try to said $87.000 correct ..?
Yes I sure did.
Whats the color?
Nice!
I am so glad that you think so.
I wonder why no flowtie in front grill like the 1500s.
Because there’s a bracket behind the bow tie where the front camera is mounted to. Plus the size of the grill is so enormous that airflow thru the bow tie is not even needed.
What’s the name of that color?
Nice truck. Lose the GIANT screen and GIANT center console and gimme a bench style front middle seat.
If your bitter about the pricetag of a truck your in the wrong market buds lol
Still think they miss the mark by not having a front locking differential
BINGO david!
This is a fully loaded truck. Makes sense. Get the custom. 44k
Like the truck but I don’t plan on towing anything or take daily long trips..
Many people don't
