    2018 Chevy Colorado Z71

    Nice. Feel free to throw in some pics! I got the dealer to throw in upgraded floor mats with the truck when I bought it. A good spray-in bedliner is next on my list too. I have already worn through long stretches of paint on the bed of my new truck. lol The first load of concrete blocks ate...

    2018 Chevy Colorado Z71

    It takes time for a vehicle to develop a following enough to where the aftermarket supports it. It does seem that there is a lot of "in development" items for these trucks. The quality is there so I am sure a following will ensue. The main things I am interested in are there. I am mainly just...

    2018 Chevy Colorado Z71

    You are not alone sir. You are not alone. There are a LOT of small Chevy trucks out there running around doing this sort of thing. Most just don't call it overlanding... and are not on these forums. I see them out there all the time though.

    2018 Chevy Colorado Z71

    It totally looks like it would be an easy one. Wouldn't make the truck any better on paper for departure angle... but... it is def. going to help when coming off of large rocks or ledges. I will give it a go and take pics... but put it back to stock most likely. I use that darn step all the...

    Good Day Ken! My name is Marty That is the downside of living somewhere that gets good rain. Lots of pinstripes to be had... even for midsized vehicles. I have seen a lot of bedlined trucks in the area I live. I may get a vehicle wrap at some point. I did pick a white for more than one reason...

    and... some more pre-mod pics. These are from a recent trip to some campgrounds just down the road at the Outer banks in NC.

    2018 Chevy Colorado Z71

    Thanks! I traded my 2005 Colorado 4cyl 2WD Crew Cab truck for this one. It had 232,000mi on it and was still running strong. The difference in build quality and attention to detail between this new truck and the old one is astonishing. I have had it for a little while now and still keep...

    2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 Diesel

    Good to hear that you are enjoying your truck! Sounds like you are getting around the same fuel economy in your diesel ZR2 as I am in my gasser Z71. AKA awesome fuel economy! Especially for what your truck is set up for. My fuel economy would plummet if set up like that. I have noticed that...
