Its on the homepage of this very website - 2025 Chevy Silverado HD Trail Boss Cuts A New Path | GM-Trucks.com

 

 

 

No lift, just Z71/Ranchos, 20" wheels with off road tires, black bumpers, red tow hooks and the Z71 Sport/LTZ style front end.  

 

Its an option package on LT and LTZ. 

 

Price wise I'm betting its similar to what say Z71 Sport costs so its probably going to be about a $3500 option package but will probably require something like Allstar or Convenience I and II to get it.

It's a Z71 sport with different badges

If there isn't a factory suspension lift, what's the big deal?  Funny they'd even call it a Trail Boss.  That's what a TB is, a lifted truck.  I've seen that video.  Hopefully more info / features to come soon that separate it from the Sport pkg.

That's all there is to it.  Don't "expect more" to come out about it really.  

 

ZR2 offers much more bang for the buck and off road capability while sustaining HD truck capability.  You can still order 5th wheel prep and VYU plow prep on the ZR2.

ZR2......no thanks.  Over priced, but for that matter they all are.

Lets assume the Trail Boss option ends up being priced like the Z71 Sport.  On and LTZ 6.6 gas, that means it will force on $6,330 in options, bringing it to $70,025.  ZR2 gas is $72,595 to start, and includes everything the LTZ Sport has but adds in the DSSVs, 35" tires, E locker out back and the 1.5" lift.  Its a bargain.  You couldn't get 35" tires, shocks, control arms and knuckles for $2570 and have them installed even.  ZR2 is a factory built bargain.    

 

Now perhaps LT vs ZR2, sure its a bigger price gap to be had.  Z71 Sport is $63,765 vs. the ZR2 at $72,595, but ZR2 has way more equipment and suspension than an LT Z71 Sport (or Trail Boss will for that matter).

Trail Boss HD is typical GM Mary Malaise. Since ~1960 GM has been great at being capable to dish up world beating vehicles but under delivering 90% of the time. Then, out of nowhere, they'll surprise everyone with their show stoppers. The 1970 A body line up (LS-6, Stage 1....etc). The 80s GNX and Syclone/Typhoons. The 1989 ZR-1. The 97 C5 and 98 F-Bodies. 2009 ZR1. The 2017 Colorado ZR2....etc etc.

 

Most of the time though it's a 72 Chevelle SS 307. An IROC manual but with a 305 not the 350. A 454 SS Silverado with 8.5:1 and sub 300hp. A God forsaken Malibu Maxx SS.

 

Add the 25 TB HD to the second list of garbage.

Probably not different than the AT4's. 1500 version has a lift, 2500HD version does not.
