    The New Chevrolet Colorado gets a New Bison ZR2

    The performance off-road mid-size pickup truck war has turned into a hot war in 2023.  Ford has recently released their 2024 Ford Ranger Raptor, and Toyota introduced an all-new 2024 Tacoma with an incredibly capable Tacoma TRD Off Road. Back in 2018, Chevrolet teamed up with American Expedition Vehicles to the 2019 Chevy Colorado Bison ZR2 to the Colorado lineup. 

    large.2024-chevrolet-colorado-zr2-bison-003.webpAbout a year ago, the all-new 2023 Colorado was released, and while there was a ZR2, the Bison was not part of the announcement.  Today, Chevy remedied that by announcing a new Chevrolet Colorado Bison ZR2 for 2024. 

    The Bison starts with the ZR2's longer wheelbase and high-output 2.7L turbo producing 310 horsepower and 430 lb-ft of torque and added new segment exclusive Multimatic front and rear jounce control dampers, 17-inch bead-lock capable wheels with 35-inch outer diameter mud/terrain tires, and boron steel skid plates. All of these add-ons combined with a best-in-class approach angle (38.2 deg.), departure angle (26 deg.), and breakover angle (26.9 deg.)  combine to make the Bison ZR2 a true off-road king of the class.

    The 2024 Colorado ZR2 Bison joins the 2024 Silverado HD ZR2 Bison in dealerships later this year.

    Not bad looking, I have to assume the interior will be the same as the current trucks which would be a shame as they could have taken it next level.

    At least they have given a decent suspension system.

      While I'm as angry over the current state of things as anyone, I'm going to gently steer the conversation away from politics given the no-politics rule we've had in place for years.   If you've got something political to talk about, it must be related to the car industry somehow.

      This is what over taxed ATC looks like.  Two minutes and worth every second....

      I wonder how Tesla owners who are "progressive" reconcile their ownership with having bought one. A college friend has 2 Teslas in the garage.  He raves about them.  He has a cheaper one (3, ?) and the S, which is their only "attractive" vehicle, IMO.  He had to stomp on it to show me how fast it is.   I have yet to ask him to weigh in on Musk and how it might affect his ownership trajectory.

      Do you recognize this person? This is the teenaged Gene Hackman.  Okay, it takes a bit to see that. I saw the headline.  Is this for real?  They'll be investigating this and hopefully get the truth. I get it that he was a great actor.  I didn't see many of his films.  I was young when I saw "The French Connection" and I didn't understand anything about the topic, and that lingo, so I should probably see it again.  I saw him in "Hoosiers."  I can't remember any other movie featuring him. I didn't know he was born in dusty San Bernardino, CA, which would have been backwater at that time.  He was in the womb during the stock market crash of 1929. I applaud him, and all stars who leave Hollywood to seek quieter, unpretentious lives.  This is a tragic end, though. RIP, Gene Hackman
