Raptor vs ZR2

[Wesmertz]

Soooo that new Colorado ZR2 is down right sexy! The power is damn impressive. I’d be curious to sit my 6’2” ass in the driver seat and see what kind of room me and my kids have (previous gen Colorado is way cramped compared to my ‘21 Ranger. Should we assume Ford was patiently waiting for the release of the Colorado so they can shit all over it? Or will Ford come in soft by comparison? The Euro Ranger with the 3.0 has 391hp and 430tq. Assuming the US government does its thing they may not use that motor setup. Also in america we like hauling capability so I’d be curious as to how they balance that act.

The big question: Can either company actually fulfill orders in a timely fashion?

The turbo 4 in the Chevy does look promising. I just Don't like the interior of those.

I've shopped a couple of Chevys in the past. No thank you.

Seriously I do have to agree by looking at the pictures of the new ZR2 (and Trail Boss) they do look nice. But pictures never tell the whole story and I'd like to see them in person to what if/what has changed from the previous ones. The 2.7 HO does have some good numbers but I've always heard the transmission is a problem with GM and we all know how everyone here is now about transmissions.

Yeah that ZR2 is pretty sweet, I love the dash!

I think those GM twins will be very competitive in the mid-size segment. I looked at them pretty hard when I was shopping and from what I could find in my research, the transmission issues were largely resolved via a change in fluid specs. But, time will tell.

Wait until you see the "ZR2 meteor." The Dinosaur killer.

The Colorado and Canyons do look sweet, but I don't buy from Government Motors.
I'd get a Frontier before a GM.

We all need play toys I guess. You can rent a real truck to do work.

I didn’t say it he did!

But that's the Silverado ZR2. We all know the Colorado ZR2 will be much better!
