The ZR2 option should be left to the Colorado platform. What the Silverado's need Z71 off road package that's more then just shocks and trinkets... Maybe the Z71 package could be the full-size trucks version of the ZR2 package the S10's use to have...

I would love to see the 6.2/ 8 speed available in a SLE or even in a WT. I cant justify a leather interior, loaded up truck to use for work/towing.

I said that too.... now I drive a double cab LTZ for my company truck.... had to have the 6.2. I don't demolish my trucks even with the crappy places I work so I don't mind....

 

And if it gets bad enough with muck and slop i dont want to push this truck through..... I will go get my shitty 2015 Tundra and drive it instead lol.

The truck is almost perfect as it is, but la crème de la crème would be better corrosion protection both in connectors and rusting panels and all steel parts. If Mitsubishi and KIA has been able to protect steel from rust why can't GM

+1! Just bought a 2016 reg. cab with an auto. Drove stick shift for over 40 years. Tried to go over to Matamoros to buy a Mexican manual shift Silverado, but it would have been impossible for me to get it registered here in Brownsville - EPA and DOT regs a nightmare. Definitely need a stick shift combo with 4wd like my old trucks.

I'm pretty happy with my 2016 Z71 crew cab. About the only things that would make me like it better would be a little more power, a more level stance, and a little more rear seat leg room. The first two of those can be addressed through the aftermarket pretty easily, but the last one would have to come straight from the factory.

A mat without the cutout under the gas peddle. When I pay for off road packages I want to actually get one. A real suspension, real skid plates. Round wheel wells to allow larger tires. And along with that again paying for an off road package and getting pathetic tires is bullshit. Also when I pay for premium sound like Bose be top of the line and really pump. Tow mirrors with cameras and safe change alert sensor. Ability to disable AFM and any of the other "drivabilty" options. A smooth tranny without issues. Powder coated frame and full under coat. What really bothers me in most of these areas I already paid for these upgrades.

    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
    • You refuse to own anything made in this century yet you reportedly own... a 2007 Silverado, which is now almost 20 years old. The dissonance.... turn up your hearing aid?   You clearly don't understand the government contracting process, brother. We send people to die on front lines, keep the public safe, and make people's husbands, wives, children enter burning buildings with equipment from .....wait for it.....   ...the lowest bidder....   Just because something is used for a long time doesn't mean it's good. But it might be cheap and plentiful.   Please, continue to whine about new trucks in a thread dedicated to new trucks, which you've said you'll never own. We get it. Go tell everyone how you're stuck in time on a Panther forum. I mean, Jesus, an 86 isn't even one of the good Panthers.
    • It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is. 
    • I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.    
    • Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.
