On Friday I was actually scanning the inventory around here for Colorado ZR2's, but could not find a single extended cab long box version, they are all crew cab short box.
After seeing this Silverado refresh, I am waiting. The only thing I think is kinda meh on it is copying Jeep's Hard Rock style of the red tow hooks. Need to see a version of the Silverado with a full sized bed. I've had two trucks with the VSB, a Tacoma and a Silverado... Never again.
You actually want an extended cab truck?
You might be the only one.
I want a REAL truck bed that will fit stuff like a bike, or a box of chocolates.
That bullshit bed extender in the Tundra was stupid, and in my Silverado everything I ever wanted to put in was always 6-10 inches too long to fit properly.

I've never really wanted for a longer bed.
Most of the bulky stuff I haul fits fine, and if it doesn't, I drop the tailgate and strap it down.
The extended cabs are worthless, sadly, due to the storage boxes under the jump seats:
My first Bro Forks was great, doe, due to the flat floor:
Although slightly disappointing, it isn't that big of a deal to me. The only one going in the back seat would be my
If there was a crew cab version with a full sized bed, that would be the best option. I mean, they make a Silverado in a crew cab with a LONG bed, so overall length shouldn't be that big of a deal.

You an get a non-ZR2 in crew cab long bed. But that's a pretty long truck.
My Silverado had a 6'6 box and you could fit a lot in it for sure. But my 5' Colorado box has yet to let me down. Most long stuff I just strap in with ratchet straps.

My guess would be that Chris took some time off because he has read the dialogue on this page 1,345 times and decided to spend some of his free time doing something besides beating a horse to death.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I like it.
The single interesting thing about this truck... are the mirrors.

I think my local Chebby had 2 black extended cab long beds in stock when I looked last week. I have yet to see a crew cab ZR2 on their website.
nearest to my office has a leftover 2017 Blurple ZR2 Ext Cab. They've had it since AUGUST...I remember getting a price quote on it before I got mine, and they weren't dilling.
Now, I bet they'd pay someone to take it.

I like the extended cab a hell of a lot more. But it’s not nearly as useful as the crew even for dog transport.
So if Toyota decided to use a scary but iconic fictional character to model its grill/facia on, then GM certainly didn't shy away from the challenge... the look is really growing on my doe.

Also, it is not a real unless you need a step ladder to work on the engine.
I actually do in mine.

Cleaned the EGR today. Lots of buildup and looked like the o rings had failed. Also am currently waiting for the BANKS RAM AIR filter to dry to reoil the sumbitch. I should post pics of my work today.
