    IMO 2020 and newer fully loaded, convenience and premium packages, Nissan TITAN "XD" Pro4x for with under 30K miles and wait for it.....can be had for under $46K if yah look hard enough. I know, got mine under $45K and with low production numbers and abysmal sales, titan making less than 1% of total market shares, I'm confident this machine will be a jewel and will pay me back and more in about 10 years. Additionally, Nissan has the best warranty game in the truck business. This 5/8ths ton truck is the best truck in the segment! All around pick up. Triple threat: tow/haul, off roader, every day driver. Very undervalued at the moment.

    There should be a setting for selecting from the stock tire sizes and other variables they should be able to set such as pinion factor. It might just take finding a dealer willing to work on it. If anything it's more of a liability to leave it incorrect. It took my Jeep dealer a couple tries to get the speedometer on my old Jeep Patriot accurate but they did.

    How did you track miles? Odometer is off so anything using that will be off as well. It would have been easy enough to use a correction factor to get the correct mileage.

    Roman coming from a 4th gen ram owner it’s not that crazy to do the light there’s a hatch in the wheel well to get to the back bolt of the light and the grille is easy to remove or you can do it without removing the grille if you got a long extension and a magnet. Unless they changed something on the new “classics” it’s a fairly easy job.

    I'm very excited to see that yall will have a TFL Colorado! I've never been interested in the Colorado until this newest generation and now it is on my short list! I hope to see you do all of the towing tests on this truck as it's a big reason I'm leaning towards the Colorado or Canyon over the other V6 midsize trucks. I'm hoping to purchase sometime this summer or fall and am leaning towards the new Colorado or the yet to be unveiled new Ranger (Hurry up Ford!!)

    Andre, I know you’ve sold your truck but for future reference for Ford vehicles you can just use a free program called Forscan. You have to buy a dongle. But those are very cheap. And using that program you can easily change many options including tire size. 👍

    I agree on the deal breakers on the ram, but on my 2020 2500 they have an access panel in the wheel well that you open, took less than 5 minutest to replace both headlights with LED's and they are much much brighter, and I love them, also on the tailgate the dealer option for the dampened tail gate is crazy when you can purchase the DEEZEE dampner and again it takes about 10 mintues to install.

    I must say, the redesign looks nice. The interior of the new generation looks excellent. That engine in the truck should be a little rocket. But as someone who just switched from a mid-sized to a full-sized truck, I couldn't imagine going back. I like the color choice, though! Life is too short for boring colored cars!

    At first I was thinking heavy duty truck for Andre. Great choice I like the new Colorado's. However Andre I think you would be better off with the GMC Canyon at4. It has LED lights and not a lot of black in the grill. I'm currently waiting for the GM twins to come out for more testing I'm also excited for the new Nissan Frontier

    Bicycle computers have been able to give correct speed and distance by inputing the the wheel/tire size for many years now. It would be very easy for the truck manufacturers to do something similar . . . if they wanted to.

  • @jhagen4850
    @jhagen4850 Рік тому

    I was going to order this exact truck - except in red - a few weeks ago. I called all the dealers in my local area and all were charging a market adjustment of $3000 on average. I finally called a dealer several hundred miles away and they said they'd order one for me at MSRP. I thought about it and decided I'd just wait.
    I think the new Trail Boss looks like a good value considering current offerings, but I'm just sick of putting up with dealers, so I'll wait.
    Congrats on your purchase! Looking forward to your reviews and seeing if this is a good truck. If it is I'll buy one in 2030 when I can find one used!

  • @ryanschultz8377
    @ryanschultz8377 Рік тому

    TFL you guys do a great job. Love your videos. I would like to see some more realistic testing as I believe most of the consumers who buy these vehicles use them for family vehicles in suburban areas. Not necessarily for pulling, and operating 7000’ above sea level. How about some testing in family conditions? Hauling cargo, dogs, kids, parking at the grocery store, passing power, stability at highway speeds. This is what my trucks encounter everyday as well as many…

  • @johnlamers4762
    @johnlamers4762 Рік тому +1

    Andre I hope the family fits in the Colorado but I foresee you going back to a full size truck in 6 months after you receive it. I don’t believe they will fit. I’m 6’6” and no way can my kids fit in the back seat of a mid size vehicle. I think you will find the same issue. Us tall people get screwed in this manner. It’s just part of being tall unfortunately.

  • @TheNewenglandboys
    @TheNewenglandboys Рік тому +1

    A few observatory comments. First, congrats Andre on the new truck. When you first said yellow I squinted like yuk. When I saw the picture I actually liked it! Secondly, on a humorous note, when Roman said he bought 5 things for Andre and Nathan to figure out and install, I started laughing wondering if LED lights were one of those 5 things considering how difficult they will be to replace! I can’t wait to find out lol. Thirdly, do you know what the difference in price would be for a similarly equipped full size truck vs the Colorado? And lastly, personally, I hate that Hummer. It’s an over weight useless vehicle! It cost a fortune, and it’s hauling and towing capability is pathetic. In addition, what is the depreciation going to amount to in selling or trading it in given the cost to replace the battery that will be no longer new when it’s sold or traded in? Have a great day guys and great video by the way!

All of those trucks have the 6.6 liter gas engine. Everyone of them are burning oil. The Chevrolets are first gen 6.6 gas engines and they are burning 5 quarts plus an oil change. The gmcs are last years model and they are burning 2 quarts an oil change already. Non of these truck have more than 20,000 miles on them. And the gmcs just had there first oil change. Not good in my opinion.

    Love you guys and Bens show. Been with you guys from your first days. I had a hummer and an avalanche back in the bush era days. As soon as gm did the government buy out I sold both trucks and have never given my money to gm again and I have bought at least 18 new trucks and cars in the last 15 years. I will never get a rivian because of how they treated you guys so screw them and how once again the way gm treated you guys it just reinforced by boycotting gm over a decade ago. I was actually considering breaking my gm boycott and buying a zr2 Colorado because I just sold my 2019 pickup! I will get another gladiator,ram,or titan. I have had 3 pro4x titans and several ram trucks and I loved the gladiator,put 50,000 on that truck in a year. Thanks for the intel boys you guys always help me make my decisions on my truck purchases. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS. ALWAYS BE UPFRONT AND HONEST WITH US ,THAT IS WHY YOU GUYS ARE THE TOPS IN YOUR INDUSTRY. And I love that Roman doesn't put up with any CRAP he would standup to Elon if he didn't like what was going on. Great job you guys and Andre is my second favorite Russian on the planet.

    The BIG DEAL ON BOTH the Chevy Colorado AND the GMC Canyon is the MUCH IMPROVED INTERIOR! The tech features are OUTSTANDING in these latest models. They just look so much better than the previous model years. In fact, if I were TOYOTA, I would be looking a lot harder at improving the interior of the Tacoma with much more tech at a good price for the average worker. YES! The Toyota is the sales leader because of the perceived long-term reliability along with great 4x4 ability ......BUT...... this status quo is being CHALLENGED by multiple manufacturers who actually ARE NOW ABLE to nip at the heels of Toyota with good products! Does the Colorado have ENOUGH 4x4 ability and tech features to take more and more sales FROM the Toyota Tacoma at all trim levels? In january 2023, I have to give the answer as a MAYBE!
    It now depends upon AVAILABLE FINANCING OPTIONS for people of all credit levels from the manufacturer that can offer an AFFORDABLE, if not significantly LOWER monthly payment versus the Toyota Tacoma! If Chevy (aka GM) can offer the in-house financing from GMAC (General Motors Acceptance Corporation) or the dealer-arranged financing COMBINED WITH a good and inexpensive comprehensive vehicle insurance package at a good interest rate at a long-enough term to keep costs much less than the Toyota THEN Chevy (and even GMC with the Canyon!) will have a TRUE WINNER against the Toyota Tacoma at all trim levels!
    Financing IS KEY TODAY! The manufacturer that makes good trucks with decent interior comfort and tech along with good 4x4 off-road ability at a VERY AFFORDABLE MONTHLY PAYMENT to the average worker WILL BE THE SALES WINNER !!! And this AFFORDABILITY ISSUE will be ever more important within the next five years! Manufacturers MUST make trucks more affordable on a monthly basis and that includes offering a FULL financing package for BOTH the vehicle itself BUT ALSO a decent monthly-financed combined-with-the-truck-payment comprehensive insurance package to go along with the purchase! People just want a SINGLE low monthly payment for the truck itself AND the insurance! The manufacturer that best offers a good COMBINED truck financing and insurance package BECOMES THE SALES WINNER!

    Kinda funny. I went from a zr2 Colorado with the Duramax to a 2021 f150 with the coyote a little over a year ago. One of the main drivers in that decision was cabin space. We towed our pop up from DFW to Cherokee NC and back and the back seat passengers were pretty miserable… I’ve got my wife and two boys (10 and 13)… had to have more space.

Loaded except I stayed with the 18” tires & wheels. I want more sidewall for better traction offroad and I like the style of the 18” wheels better.

    First off, you guys are my favorite channel by far. Also, I've never posted a commented before so this is a first. I owned a 19 classic identical to stubby except mine was a quad. Now I own a 22 bighorn crew. I completely agree with the headlights, absolutely terrible. However, I purchased orical v series light bulbs for my 19 they were little over $100. I believe Roman sated how much you have to take apart fo change the buld. I'm not sure if you guys realize. You really don't have to do that. It literally took my 5 min a buld to pop out the headlight housing and put the new bulbs in. Did the same thing with my new truck in the dealer lot when I got the new truck. The orical bulbs are fantastic. We got my wife a 22 pilot and it had the hid bright white projector lights. The bulbs i put in my rams are far better and brighter especially on the highway. Maybe not the great for oncoming traffic. But every bright bulb blinds you nowadays just have to learn too not look directly at oncoming traffic I suppose.
    Again love the show guys.
    Ciao.

      Chips are all not the same. If you follow detailed analysists the last i heard while cutting edge fab proccesses have excess supply: AMD, Nvidia, and Apple are holding the bag right now for the bleeding edge. But trucks use old broken fabs for industrial chips, which were still having troubles maintaining order volume with all the military orders with the war in Ukraine. Cutting edge fabs and old industrial fabs make totally different products that cannot be swapped without millions or billions of dollars of redesigns. even though old proccesses are in demand, they won't Pay: Apple, Nvidia, AMD, Qualcomm prices.

    I'll give you guys the Headlight hate as anyone that gets in my 2008 Nissan Frontier at night is deathly afraid by the light my headlights put out lol. I'm just used to it, but it's pretty bad when a new car pulls up behind me and I'm like, what happened did my headlights just go out lol. Basically because the light surrounding me being projected from the vehicle headlights behind me makes a shadow in front of my truck like my lights aren't on lol. But I'll put up with my old tech even though I'm pretty close to wanting to swap out my headlights because everything else about my old truck including its current 400,000 plus miles on it just puts a huge smile of satisfaction on my face for money well spent on a quality reliable albeit not fancy truck. Oh and the fact that I could afford to buy the truck when I bought it unlike truck prices today Jiminy Christmas!

    My 8 speed sucks in the cold weather first 10mins of driving. Come up to a stop sign about to let off brake and give it gas to go and it kicks down into first gear from second gear hard at the wrong time. Safety issue my opinion but GM says it’s normal. Be curious if this revised version of the 8spd does that still

    Car flippers are absolutely driving up the markups for new and used cars. I know for a fact people were buying new Taycans and Mavericks for the sole purpose of reselling- that decreases the supply of new cars and hence increases the dealer markups. Good on GM for trying anything to slow down the car flippers. Eventually used car prices will go down and the flippers will go away.

    Buy a good lift from Fox or King and the ride quality wont go to shit when you lift your truck. You are also usually going to E load tires when you lift your truck as well which hurts ride quality. Simply upgrading the suspension does not ruin ride quality if you get quality stuff (fox/kings/deavers/etc) and you get the right load rating for your truck. Most people overspring their lifts because shops want to sell you the most shit, not give you the best ride quality. Spring rate as low as possible + fox/king/deavers = good ride and lifted.
