so, just let's take a look
at this 2020 Chevy Traverse.
(upbeat piano music)
All right, so here's a
look at this 2020 Traverse.
This is a front-wheel drive 1LT
Traverse that we just got in.
This is brand new for 2020,
it's got the, it's in the
silver ice metallic color
with a jet black interior,
which is the cloth interior on the LT.
It does have a 3.6 liter V6 motor in it,
gets you about 27 on the highway
and around 18 in the city,
as far as the fuel efficiency on it.
This does have the confidence
and driver convenience package,
and I'll list all that out
as far as in the description of this video
so you can see exactly
what's all in that package.
This is just gonna be a quick walk around
on this 2020 Traverse.
If you're interested in this
vehicle or wanna learn more,
feel free to hit me up,
all my contact information
is below in the link of the
description of this video.
We can schedule a time for you to come in
and check it out.
Or we can, I can get you
some more information on it.
It does come with a three year,
36 bumper-to-bumper warranty,
along with a five year,
60,000 powertrain warranty,
and the Deien's Own Lifetime
Powertrain Warranty.
On top of that, I can ship
vehicles across the country
or have a vehicle just like this
drop-shipped to a dealership near you,
so you can just go in
and just sign the papers
and drive off with a brand new Traverse.
Let's take a closer look at
the interior of the vehicle.
All right, so it does have keyless entry
with remote start, along
with a rear hatch release,
and it does have the proximity lock,
it unlocks so you just walk
up, hit that button there,
and it'll lock and unlock the vehicle.
It does have the power windows,
you got your power locks up here
plus your power mirrors,
and then it does have
the selectable height
for the rear lift gate,
so you can pop it from
there or use the key fob.
Here's a look at the interior.
You have cruise control,
Bluetooth and steering wheel controls.
Just a little quick glance over,
so this is the jet black,
I know it says jet black but
it's almost like a charcoal,
as far as the interior color.
The driver seat's power
and then the passenger
seat is gonna be a manual,
as far as adjustability.
And then here's a look in the back,
you do have the power windows back here,
plus you do have the rear
climate controls back here,
plus two USB charging spots there,
and then, of course it
is a third-row vehicle,
here's a look in the back
as far as the third row.
Lots of room as far as
in the back cargo area.
And something I do on all
my third-row vehicles,
is to kind of show you the ease
of gettin' into the third row.
So on the passenger side,
which is usually where you
pick up your kids or grandkids,
you just pull on that lever right there,
and it slides all the way up,
so you could still actually still have
a front-facing car seat in here,
and it's not gonna hinder as far as
how much room there is to
get into the third row.
But then, if you look here
there's quite a bit of room
to get into the third row,
and it looks like we
need to vacuum back here
a little bit more, but our
detail guys kinda missed a spot.
But, quite a bit of room
to get into that third row
from the second row.
All right guys, here it
does have keyless entry
with remote start, along
with the rear trunk release,
so you hit this button right here twice,
and that'll actually pop
your rear hatch release.
And then here's a look back here.
The seats do fold down if you
ever need to haul anything,
and then there is also USB
ports over on the side,
there's one right there on that side,
and also one on the other side,
so you can hook up something
and charge it if you need to,
which, you know if you have
kids and stuff like that,
definitely always need that.
It does have a storage
compartment down underneath here.
And then it does also
have a 12-volt outlet
over here on the side.
And then to close it, you just
hit this button right here,
and then it'll motorize down.
All right, and then here's a
quick look at the interior,
we do have, like I said,
cruise control, steering controls,
and then the Bluetooth controls there,
it is a push button start,
here's a look at the
AM/FM Chevy MyLink radio,
It does have the far slide-up,
little compartment back underneath there.
It does have AM/FM and
satellite radio capability,
it does also have a
standard backup camera,
and then you do have the heated seats,
it is a dual-zone as far
as the climate controls,
and then you can also
control the third row
temperatures all from back
over here on the radio,
and then you do have two
USB ports and then a AUX in,
and then the 12 volt outlet down there,
and then down here you
do have your drive mode,
and your touch control off button
right there in your electronic
parking brake there.
All right, so once again
this is Chevy Dave here
from Deien Chevrolet.

new 2020 Chevy Traverse,

2020 Chevrolet Corvette C8 Reveal - Finally, A Mid-Engine Corvette!
Edmunds:
[MUSIC PLAYING]
CARLOS LAGO: We just watched
the reveal of the 2020 Chevrolet
Corvette Stingray.
The base price is going
to be less than $60,000.
That's incredible.
This is the eighth generation
Corvette, and of course now
it's mid-engine.
There is a 6.2-liter
V8 right about here.
Now, that's a big deal
for a lot of reasons.
Well, one, it's the first
time that a Corvette
has gone mid-engine.
Two, it brings a ton
of performance benefits
and it makes a pretty radical
change to what Corvette is.
Really quick, that engine
is still a pushrod V8.
That means it's low, it's
sacrificing a little bit
of valve train sophistication
itself.
It's attached to an 8-speed dual
clutch automatic transmission.
The only transmission
offering, and of course, it
drives the rear wheels.
Now, it makes 495 horsepower
with the performance exhaust,
and with Launch Control, and
with the performance options,
like the Z51 track package
that was on the C7, and so on,
enables 0 to 60 in less
than three seconds.
Push is pretty spectacular.
Now, one of things
that happens when
you switch to a
mid-engine configuration
is of course all that space that
was once cargo volume is now
engine volume, I guess?
But there's still
a trunk behind it,
which Chevy says can
fit two golf bags, which
is pretty impressive.
It shows Chevy's
commitment to understanding
the practicality
aspect of the Corvette,
and why owners really
appreciate that.
It makes this car more
usable for more people.
On top of that, there's also
a front trunk, or frunk,
up front.
Combined, both of those
compartments make 12.6-ish
cubic feet of cargo space,
which is pretty important.
Let's go a little
bit further up.
One of things they maintained
was the removable roof,
which has always been a
highlight of Corvettes.
It's nice to be able to
take the roof off and just
go for a cruise.
There are a couple of
other big, dramatic changes
to the rest of the car, as well.
Gone are the
transverse leaf spring
setup that used to underpin
Corvette for a long time.
Now we're just down
to coil overs, which
is more traditional,
and should make
for a really sophisticated
ride and handling,
especially when paired with the
magnetic fluid-filled shocks
that Corvette's been using
in recent years, and those,
we've really liked a lot.
Chevy says in the
press materials
that the Corvette equipped
with all-season tires
can generate 1 G laterally.
That's ridiculous
for all-season tires,
and that's such a high
amount of grip capability
that actually all Corvettes
now will have a dry [INAUDIBLE]
oiling system to ensure constant
lubrication to important engine
bits when you're
cornering really hard.
A lot of really
exciting stuff there.
Let's move our way to the front.
And one of the real advantages,
beyond all the performance
headroom, of having the
engine in the middle,
because it's putting more
mass on the rear tires,
giving them more traction to
brake, accelerate, and handle,
but you also move the passenger
compartment quite a bit
forward in the cabin.
And that means you can
put the hood down lower,
because there's no
longer an engine there.
You can make the
windshield bigger.
That gives you a
better sight line.
And because there's no
longer an engine blocking it,
you can have a shorter
and more direct steering
system, which makes the
whole thing feel more direct.
It also helps when you're
closer to the front wheels, too.
It makes the process
feel a little bit better.
Let's find a way to
hop inside and talk
about what's going on in there.
The interior's a
pretty dramatic change,
like the rest of
the car, I guess.
Two seats, of course.
Squared-off steering
wheel, which
looks interesting, but
in my experience, cars
that use this design work
pretty well because you have
four unique points
of contact that
help in doing hand-over-hand
steering around tight corners,
or when you're in a power
slide, as I like to do,
it helps you locate where
the center of the wheel
is really quickly.
Big digital gauge cluster
behind that, infotainment
display here, all
very driver-oriented
how it wraps around you,
especially this little trim
piece of HVAC controls.
Very interesting decision.
It's going to be a while
before we actually figure out
if we like it or
not, but I will say,
I like having physical buttons
rather than digital ones buried
in the menu.
One of things we
haven't talked about
is something that's
really impressive,
and that's a button
hidden up here
that lifts the front
end of the car when
you're approaching like a
speed bump or your driveway.
And the cool thing is when
you do that, you can actually
have the GSP system
remember where that was,
so when you get home, you don't
have to always hit that button.
Or if there's always a speed
bump or a pothole on your drive
home, the car will just
learn that as you use it.
And that's a really cool
thing to have in a sports car.
There's nothing more
embarrassing than scraping
the nose on your sports car
as you leave your driveway
in the morning.
Very, very embarrassing.
There's a lot here that we're
going to learn, and experience,
and talk about.
But for the time being, this
Corvette looks really cool,
and we can't wait to drive it.
2014 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT V6
Cars.com:
i'm mark williams for pickup trucks.com we're here in sunny Arizona with the
2014
chevy silverado but we've already done a
video on what's new about this truck
which is basically been reinvented from
bumper to bumper
what we want to look at here is exactly
what kind of value you get for your
money behind me
silverado 1500 double cab LT two-wheel
drive with the v6 for thirty-eight
thousand dollars
let's take a closer look under the hood
and all-new ecotec3 4.3 liter v6 direct
injection variable valve timing and
cylinder deactivation as far as fuel
economy 18 in the city 24 on the highway
with a 20 combined
this is probably about as high-tech as
you can get in the segment from behind
the wheel huge improvements fine-tuning
the front springs and the rear springs
are essentially using
independent front suspension and live
axle rear end strategy but the
fine-tuning with the new frame huge
improvement over the vehicle that it's
replacing as far as engine performance
we know this is a v6 but a lot of people
will start thinking this is a v8 if they
don't know what's under the hood
they're going to think that this
high-tech ecotec3 v6 engine is actually
a mid-level v8 that's how well it
performs rlt double cab comes with what
Chevy calls the all-star option package
that includes a unique chrome grille
18-inch wheels and tires power seats a
rear locking differential and a host of
other features for about twenty seven
hundred dollars
the interior is probably where General
Motors have made the biggest strides
quality
this is the LT package so it's not the
work truck package it's not the LTZ but
huge improvements over the interior that
it's replacing you can take a look at
the seams
it's almost organic looking like
furniture the new 40 20 40 front bench
seat offers a nice center console that
flips up into a seat
you also have center storage underneath
and we really like the new gauge layout
right here in front of the driver other
options on this LT double cab integrated
brake controller sidesteps spray in
bedliner LED lighting underneath the bed
lip and four unique tie-down spots
inside the truck
so there it is for a half-ton pickup
truck
thirty-eight thousand dollars by you
quite a bit but it also includes two
year 24,000 mile three maintenance
so that's our oil filters tire rotations
for that entire time
seems like a pretty good deal if you
want more information on half-ton pickup
trucks or any pickup truck go to pick up
trucks . com
yeah
New Chevrolet Safety Features Demonstration | Jeff Gordon Chevrolet
Jeff Gordon Chevrolet:
Hey, my name is Bailey Pendarvis from
Jeff Gordon Chevrolet here in Wilmington
North Carolina today we're going to go
over some of the safety features that
Chevrolet has to offer on their product
lineup. Today we'll be using a 2017
Chevrolet Tahoe and we're about to get on the
road and show you some of those many features.
All right, now that we're on the freeway we're
about to display the adaptive cruise
control that is equipped with the driver
confidence II package on the
Chevrolet Tahoe. Unlike your normal
cruise control, the adaptive cruise
control monitors a safe distance from
the vehicle in front of you that
accelerates or brakes the vehicle. Now, to
set the cruise, you see right here this
little light has to be on this dashboard...
So we're going to hit this button. As you
can see how the white light appears with the
cruise control right down there. You're
going to initiate our cruise control by hitting
set right here. As you can see it has
adaptive cruise set at 79MPH and our distance
is on far. Now you can change these
three distances by hitting this this
button right here which your forward
collision alert. This system is a radar
behind this rearview camera. You can
change it, I'm going to show you right
here. We're on far we can go to medium
and then we can also go to
near, which is your closest setting. So
we'll go back and far. I have my foot is
off the gas and off the brake as we
approach these vehicles ahead of us,
you'll see how the cruise speed is constantly going down.
All right, now we're about to move over
to the left lane I'll show you the
cruise is still set at 79MPH. We're going at
63 miles an hour.
Now when I move over to the next lane,
you'll see we're accelerating behind the
vehicle in front of us is at a safe
enough distance for me to gain as much
speed as possible.
Now not every vehicle comes equipped
with adaptive cruise control but most
vehicles do come equipped with the
distance indicator which is powered
through the camera and the radar system
behind the rear view mirror as I
mentioned earlier. This measures the
distance in between you and the vehicle
in front of you and as you can see right
now, there's a green little car right
here that says that I'm currently at a
safe distance at the speed that i'm
traveling with the vehicle in front of
me. If I get a little bit closer to
the vehicle in front of me, you'll see
that that car turns orange. That is to let
me know that, at the speed that I'm
traveling at currently that I'm too
close to the vehicle in front of me.
Now, my favorite safety feature on the Chevrolet
Tahoe and several other vehicles in the
Chevrolet product lineup is the side blind
zone alert, which is a system that
measures vehicle in your blind spots up
to 25 meters away. And, as you'll notice,
there's an orange indicator the right
and left hand top corner of the mirrors
that will light up when a vehicle's
approaching you and your blind spot.
Now the next safety feature that Chevrolet
has to offer is the Lane Keep Assist and the
Lane Departure Warning. Now, with this feature
there is a camera that is behind the
rear view mirror right up here that will
monitor the lines on the road, and as you can
see with this green car I'm between the two
lines - It says that I'm correctly driving
in between both lines on the highway. Now,
if you shift over - say you're on a long
ride, on vacation, or just sleepy at the
wheel, and you shift too far over, you'll
notice that the steering wheel is moved
back over and that light turned orange.
So I'll just display it one more time you'll see...
It's gonna turn orange and the steering takes me
right back to between the two lanes. Now
the next safety feature we're about to
demonstrate that Chevrolet has to offer
is the front pedestrian braking system.
This system uses the camera radar right
behind the rear view mirror that
monitors a pedestrian or object in front of
you that will automatically
automatically brake the vehicle at
speeds below 50 miles an hour. Also, a
3-dot red light will appear and vibrate
the seat right in front of the
windshield when you get too close to a
pedestrian or an object. Now the next
safety feature Chevrolet has to offer is
the front and rear park assist. These are
sensors that are located on the front
the rear of the vehicle that measure you
when you get too close to another vehicle
in a parking spot or an object in front
of you. And as we approach this vehicle right
here, on our display system is a monitor
that shows what part of the vehicle is
near the the other which is the front
side of the Chevrolet Tahoe and has a
bar system. As you get closer to the
vehicle the last line will appear red.
As I mentioned earlier, the rear park
assist we're about to display that in
addition to the rearview backup camera.
The camera displays a path that also
moves with you, as you can see, that helps
guide you into a parking spot. Now if I
get too close to this truck right here,
my seat vibrates with a triangle that
pops up letting me know that I'm
too close to an object. And then also, our
monitor right here displays that my left
corner of the vehicle that I'm approaching an
object. As you can see the indicator to
light bar continually grows as I get closer.
Another great feature that
Chevrolet offers that we can't
demonstrate today with the sunlight
being out is Intellibeam which
recognizes the light from an approaching
vehicle... So if you have your high beams
on, the Intellibeam system would
automatically cut your low beams on when
a vehicle approached you. For when you
have your low beams on and there's no
one in front of you, your vehicle will
automatically cut the high beams on. Now, if
you ever want to change or turn off any
of these safety features, you would go to
your 8-inch MyLink touch screen,
hit the settings app right here
tap "Vehicle", then "Collision/Detection" Systems.
From here you can cut
off your Park Assist as you can see and
any other features. There's also an
option to change Alert Type which is the
safety alert seat which the vibration in your seat
or the audible beep alert. On some of the vehicles
there are also two buttons to the left
of the steering wheel to where you can
easily turn off your lane departure or
your park assist.
Alright, those were a few safety features
that we went over in the Chevrolet Tahoe
that Chevrolet has to offer in its new
product lineup. If you have any questions
about anything that we went over today,
you're welcome to comment below, or visit
us at our website at JeffGordonChevy.com.
Or, stop by and see us at 228 South
College Road in Wilmington North Carolina.
Again, we want to thank you for watching.
See you next time :)
2017 Chevrolet Silverado Redline Edition - Complete Review | TestDriveNow
Steve Hammes New Car Reviews:
More so than any other type of vehicle, trucks
offer endless amounts of customization options.
From the number of doors, bed lengths, engines
and page after page of options lists, if you
want a ride that speaks to your individualism,
a pickup truck is the way to go.
Earlier this year at the Chicago Auto Show,
Chevy expanded their Redline Edition across
9 vehicles.
It’s a lipstick package that gives the car,
truck or SUV a grittier look.
Available at a cost of $2,265, it can be ordered
on Silverado Double Cab LT Z71 and like here
on the Crew Cab LTZ Z71.
All Redline vehicles are equipped with black
wheels featuring distinct red hash marks,
black nameplates with a red outline, blacked-out
grilles and black Chevrolet bowtie logos.
Additionally, the Silverado comes with red
recovery hooks.
I have to admit, Redline gives the Silverado
an attractive, high performance stance.
With additional options, this truck stickers
for just under $60,000.
And it’s loaded with goodies including heated
and ventilated seats, power adjustable pedals,
the full MyLink system with its excellent
smartphone integration and OnStar connectivity,
a 4-wheel drive system with the highly desirable
Auto setting, a huge center console with tons
of connection points, modern safety features
and other luxury touches.
Plus, my truck ups the motor ante with the
Corvette-sized 6.2-liter EcoTec3 V8 with V4
mode, 420 horsepower and 460 pound-feet of
torque mated to an 8-speed automatic.
It’s quick, gutsy and surprisingly efficient.
It adds $2,495 to the price.
With the biggest rear axle and the max trailering
package, this Silverado can tow a whopping
11,700 pounds.
And the Z71 Package with its Rancho shocks,
and host of other off-road tricks not only
imbues the Silverado with a work-truck resume
but also improves its on-road ride.
The Silverado is a really good rig and the
Redline Edition adds some street truck pop
to for a dose of visual allure.
And with the big 6.2 under-hood, it can back
it up.
Plus, with the Z71 suspension it drives like
a dream.
You'd swear it was a luxury sedan, so smooth
and quiet.
Plus the rear seats are as big as they come.
And can you believe I'm averaging nearly 20mpg?
For 2017, Chevy offers the Silverado in a
number of other special editions including
Black Out, Special Ops, Rally, Midnight, Realtree,
All Star, and Texas, in addition to a series
of appearance packages that ostensibly turn
the Silverado into just about anything you
want it to be.
The redesigned 2019 Silverado is expected
to debut next year.
In the meanwhile, Chevy’s best-seller is
staying fresh and looking better than ever.
2019 Chevrolet Silverado Review and First Drive — Cars.com
Cars.com:
we're here in some of the most beautiful
parts of the country the Idaho Wyoming
border where we've had our first chance
to get behind the wheel of the 2019
silverado half-ton now there's a lot to
talk about with this truck but we're
gonna try to keep it focused I'm going
to talk about the interior the bed our
off-road impressions how it tows and
what it feels like on the highway inside
the Chevy trail bus is e71
it's got the cloth interior the new
redesign Center stack which is closer to
the driver and passenger to control the
nav system and any AC functions it's got
a nine switch line up here depending on
what features you have and also the
four-wheel drive system is now in the
upper left-hand corner both with the tow
haul mode and a sport mode and
thankfully they've put the trailer brake
controller down here and easy access
here at the right hand but it also has a
huge center console whether you have the
storage bin here in front or whether you
have the middle seat that pops up with a
hidden storage underneath the seat you
still have tons of room inside for any
of your personal gear here at the back
we love the dual exhausts they've also
redesigned the bumper steps to make it
easier to access the bed itself here on
the tailgate push button electronic drop
and also on some trim packages all it
takes is a push of the knee and it
automatically closes all by itself but
the bed itself has some of the most
interesting features we've seen in a
pickup bed in a long time on the floor
cold rolled steel for strength also the
walls the walls themselves are made of a
high-strength steel so this is probably
some of the strongest beds in the
half-ton segment also 12 different
tie-down points each 500 pound capacity
on every pickup truck with nine other
exterior holes to give you a total of 21
different holes that you can have for
tie-downs to keep your cargo safe but
the feature we like the most
the optional 120 volt 3 prong plug
right here in the bed on the off-road
course the trail boss is z71 was
impressive there's no other way to
explain it this vehicle has a 2-inch
suspension lift makes room for bigger
wheels and tires more aggressive treads
the Goodyear Wranglers but also has
monotube Rancho shocks very good for
this kind of obstacle course that we had
created here by Chevy for us we had a
log run we had a hill climb over some
loose dirt rock we also had a
rock-strewn area very similar to a
Rubicon Trail and then we also had a big
mud pit that we were able to get up some
speed and do some very nasty splashing
but this vehicle does very well it's
going to compete very well with other
off-road packages it's not a Ford Raptor
but it's a very impressive
when it comes to trailering Chevy is
really upping their game in fact they've
created for this new half-ton Silverado
they've created what's called the
advanced trailering package which is the
combination of integrated cameras along
with a lot of accessible information
they haven't loaded right into the nav
screen that they can get any time they
can program different types of trailers
that they're going to be using and they
can keep track of the fuel economy and
different connections around the truck
in fact you can even check from the
lights on your trailer and your vehicle
your tow vehicle are all working at the
same time now the connections here
accommodate a fourth camera it has to be
hardwired but it can provide you with a
view off the back end of the trailer so
when you pop it into reverse you know
exactly what's behind you when you're
trailering now we had a chance to take
this trailer a 6,000 pound cargo trailer
out on the road and we have to say that
this is a very comfortable and confident
vehicle to tow with
6,000 pounds isn't your normal weight in
fact that's probably more than 90% of
people are going to be towing with their
half-ton pickup truck but we can say
with the suspension changes and also
this technology advancement with this
trailer package this is probably one of
the best trailer packages we've had a
chance to derive so we're out of the mud
we've disconnected the trailer we're
back on the highway so this is just two
lane road where it's 6,000 feet so the
powertrain feels a little underpowered
but that's okay because there's a lot of
horsepower in both the 5 3 or the 6-2 v8
engines that are available for this new
Silverado on the road very composed this
is probably the single biggest
improvement not that the last half-ton
Silverado was bad but this one is so
much better it's almost difficult to
even compare the two very composed
especially into hard corners it's a
wonderful little switch that puts a
little racing flag up on the information
- that
to know you're in sport mode you get a
little tighter feel to the steering
wheel little quicker response on the
throttle and this thing just stays
hugged to the ground we're in the trail
boss so that means we're a little higher
because of the suspension lift but
there's nothing about this vehicle that
feels tippy or you know out of sorts
whether we're pushing it we've pushed it
a few times around some corners it
absorbs every kind of corner that we
could throw at it no matter what the
speed is that we're going into that
corner so I mean overall this is a very
impressive feel on two-lane highways it
seems like almost any of the trim
package combinations are very versatile
doing moderately well if they're
four-wheel drive but also doing very
very well if you want to get a little
more enthusiastic on pavement what's our
biggest takeaway from our time behind
the wheel of the 2019 silverado half-ton
is how far they've come now we love the
classics but this new half-ton pickup
truck looks like it could be a game
changer for Chevy and we love the fact
that they're requiring on every single
vehicle and this isn't a government
mandate but every single vehicle on the
door jamb lets the owner of that
specific truck know exactly what the
maximum trailer capacity is and maximum
payload capacity is for each truck
that's about safety and we like that for
more information about this truck go to

How to Install the Bushwacker Pocket Style Fender Flares
RealTruck.com:
Hey Guys! John here with realtruck.com. Today
I'm going to show you how to install the Bushwacker
Pocket Style Fender Flares onto this 2014
Chevy Silverado.
As you can see here, our set comes complete
with everything we need to get these on the
truck. This is a four piece set, but you can
see that the rear fender flare. And, I wanna
point out something to you guys. I want you
to take a look at this rear fender flare.
One of the really cool things about this fender
flare compared to a lot of the other ones
is you can see this notched spot right here.
That is actually notched out for your gas
cap cover on your pickup. Bushwacker has actually
cut that out. I've held this up on the truck.
It matches up nice. Looks good. So, and I'll
show you that when we get it on the truck.
Also, you have your front flare. And as you
can tell here, this is a really nice-looking
flare, as well. And comes with your rubber
gasket that I'm going to show you how to put
this on. It goes around the sides of this,
helps protect these edges on these flares.
Also, we have these imitation ... well, they're
real bolts, but they give it an imitation,
makes it look like they're bolted on. Those
actually are gonna go in all of these little
spots here on the truck. And they come in
these packs. I just opened one up to show
you what they look like. Plus your instruction
sheet, some really cool stickers to put on
your truck when it's all done. And, when you
take a look at these, you can see these things
are nice smooth finish and they also are paint-able.
So guys, if you wanted to paint these things
up to match your truck, you could do that.
It's not real hard to do.
Next thing we need to do, then, is actually
get started on prepping the truck to get these
on. So, let's get that done.
In order for us to install our new Bushwacker
Pocket Style Fender Flares, what we need to
do is we need to remove this factory piece
that comes on here, this trim piece. And that's
pretty simple to do. All we need to do is
take off the two screws on the side here.
I've already actually taken these screws out
because I had some mud flaps on here that
I took off getting ready for this. But, then
once you have those off, then all you've gotta
do is just pull it out a little bit. And it'll
come out of these clips that are in behind
it. And then there's another one on the bottom,
you slide it forward. And then you can just
pull it right out of there. You can see right
there, that's that clip that clips it on the
bottom. These are the ones that actually clip
it in here.
Now, these clips right here, you don't have
to remove these because our fender flare is
gonna cover those up. So, what I would do
is maybe clean these up a little bit where
it was dirty behind there.
Ok guys, what we're going to do is we're going
to start out with putting our pocket flare
together. And what we wanna take is our trim
and peel a couple inches of the tape back.
And then we want the adhesive side to go to
the inside of our flare. What we're gonna
do then is we're just gonna start installing
this down on here.
Now I should probably show you before I get
too far along - it does have a little bit
of a channel. It's guaged a little bit in
here for it to actually sit down in here.
You wanna make sure you get it pressed down
in there well.
When we get to the end here, what we wanna
do is go ahead and put our end on there and
then take a pair of scissors or a razor knife
or something along that lines. Then we're
just gonna cut this off right here. And boom.
There we go. We've got one all done. Now I'm
just gonna cut this off, leave a little bit
so we can pull it for the next one. We'll
have this all ready to go.
The next thing we're gonna do then, is we're
gonna start putting our bolt on lock bolts.
What we're going to do here is we're gonna
take our bolt. As you can see, it comes with
the bolt, the flat washer, and the self-locking
nut. What we're gonna do, is we're gonna take
the bolt. We're gonna put it through from
the front side. And then we're going to attach
our self-locking nut to the back of this.
Then you guy have probably noticed, you probably
will have seen that your kit came with one
of these. This is what you use along with
either a wrench or a socket to put on here
to tighten these up. Then you put a wrench
or something on the back here, as well. Then
just tighten these up.
Now, don't over-tighten these things, guys.
They're self-locking nuts. Once you get the
thread through the plastic part inside this
nut, it's not going anywhere, so you just
need to get them there snug - just snug enough
that they don't rattle around. And that's
good because they're not actually holding
anything. They're just for looks. I'll put
all those in now, then I'll show you what
it looks like after we get all those in there.
So, it'll be pretty cool.
The next thing we're gonna do is we're gonna
take our fender flare. If you guys notice,
inside the fender flare, you’ll see this
double edge steel in here. What this does
is works kind of like a spring to keep this
thing pressed tight. What we're gonna do is
we're gonna take our fender flare. We're gonna
slide it in here underneath on this side.
Then we're gonna put it up on here and we're
going to put it in place and then raise it
up, putting a little pressure on there. Then
we're actually going to install a couple of
the screws that we took out from our factory
flap down here in the bottom. What that's
gonna do, that is gonna help hold this in
place for us while we mark out where our other
ones are gonna go.
We've got it marked out. Grab yourself a pair
of safety glasses and put them on. Then you
can start doing some drilling here. All we're
drilling is a 3/32nd inch pilot hole, basically,
because our screws that we're gonna use on
this are self-tapping, but we need something
to get them started. So, that's what we're
gonna do. We're just gonna start in here.
Oh, the other thing you need to do, too, is
make sure that where you're putting your holes
from the outside here in is at least ten millimeters.
So, double-check that and make sure that's
good all the way around. Then you can drill
them out.
Once we've got our holes drilled out, then
we can go ahead and grab our fender flare
and our screws, and we're gonna start attaching
the flare to our truck. So, let's grab that.
We've got our holes all drilled out. What
I've done then is I've gone ahead and started
a screw down here on the bottom in this spot,
started the one up here just to hold it up
in place so that way I could explain to you
guys a little better. What you wanna do is
make sure that you push this up. And you might
need to get a friend to help you with this
so that you can get this thing on here tight
because you want these on tight.
What we're gonna do now then is we're gonna
go ahead and we're gonna put the other five
screws that we have left to put in. Also,
the ones down here, if you can notice, let
me show you here real quick - we have two
different size screws that come with our kit.
These are a self-tapping style. You can see
they have a little drill bit kind of head
on there. These do not. These bigger ones
that don't have the self-tapping head on them
are the ones that we're gonna put down here
in the bottom of our flare where we took our
old piece off from down here. Because if you
looked, there're already some things in there
to screw these into. That's where those longer
ones go.
So anyway, we'll get the rest of these screws
in and then we'll come back and show you what
this looks like all on the truck.
There you go. That's how easy and simple it
is to install the front ones. Now we're go
and do the back one and then we'll hit the
ones on the other side. That way it ought
to give you a real good look at what these
are actually going to look like on your truck.
Quite honestly, those look pretty good. They
fit nice. They're nice and tight. And, you
guys can see now how much protection these
actually add to your truck from your tires
with bigger tires on it. They're tough. They'll
stand up to a little bit of abuse on there,
too. If you hit a branch or something out
there on the trail, you're probably gonna
be okay.
Anyway, we're gonna do the back ones, show
you how to do those. They install pretty much
the same way as the front ones. So, we'll
get those done and we'll get a whole picture
of the truck.
We need to remove these factory flaps that
come on our truck. There's one up here in
the front of this tire and then this little
piece back here in the back, as well. The
way we do that is we just take these screws
out. They're Torx head screws. We'll take
those out, pull those off, and clean up the
area where they were.
Once we have that off, the two top screws
that we took out, which you can see are right
here, in this spot right here and right here
- we need to put those back in because those
help hold our inner fender in. The other two
we can just leave out.
Once we've got those off, then we're ready
to put our fender flare up here and start
attaching it. What we're gonna do is we're
gonna hold it up here in place just like what
we did with the front one. Then we're going
to attach the bottom screws. We're gonna use
the screws that I showed you on the front
that came with it. Those are the longer ones
that don't actually have the drill bit end
on them. We're just gonna start those in the
bottom. Then, basically, from here on out
we're gonna install this exactly the same
way we did the front. We're just gonna start
these screws in here, in the front and rear.
We're gonna leave them loose, but we just
wanna put them in there just to hold this
in place. Then we're gonna go around and we're
gonna push in on this so it's really snug.
We're gonna make marks in our five remaining
holes and take this back down, drill it, put
it back up, and re-attach it just like we
did on the front. We're gonna go ahead and
get all that done. And we’ll see what this
thing looks like when we get this one on.
Okay guys, there you go. That's how simple,
quick, and easy it is to instal these Bushwacker
Pocket Style Fender Flares onto your truck.
So, until next time, happy motoring.
How to Replace the Coolant on a Chevrolet Cruze
Ryan Amy:
this video show you how to replace the
coolant on a chevy cruze before we get
started remember I'm an IT guy and not a
mechanic
so do your own homework but this process
worked for me jack up the front driver
side of the car and make sure you use
jack stands then you're gonna pop open
the hood after that we're gonna go
underneath the car to remove the plastic
panel there are four of these plugs what
you do is you get this tool and you put
it around the middle pin and then you
pop that one loose and then pop out the
big plug there are four of these under
here and I found it was a lot easier
using this tool than just a plain
screwdriver and I put the link for that
in the description once you've removed
those in the back of the panel should
move pretty freely and it's time to
remove the t20 Torx screws there's a
total of eight of them on this car and I
have an extra picture here so that way
you can see where they are to make a
little bit easier for you don't forget
to remove the ones in the corners in
this panel you will pull it out by
pulling towards the back of a car not
directly down that will reveal the
petcock valve which is on the passenger
side of the rear of the radiator you
want to put a 5/16 hose on it about two
feet and that makes it so you can direct
the flow rather than going all of your
garage floor you can direct it right
into a bucket
open up the coolant reservoir cap this
will let the air back into the system
and make it easier to drain underneath
the car open up the petcock valve to
release the coolant
then let it drain until it stops once it
does you're gonna close the petcock
valve to seal it back up using this
method I got about a gallon of coolant
out which is a little bit more than if
you hadn't jacked up the driver side of
that car the next step is to lower the
car and then remove the bleeder valve
that's on the top of the radiator on the
passenger side this will let the air
back out so you can get more coolant in
so we only got about a gallon of the
coolant although it has six quarts and I
want to get more of it out if you want
to skip this step you could just go
ahead and put 50:50 coolant in it right
now but I'm gonna fill it up with
distilled water and then drain it again
once coolant comes out of the bleeder
valve go ahead and seal that back up
then we're gonna get in the car and
bring it up to operating temperature to
get any air out of the system start it
up and then change the display so that
way it shows you what the coolant
temperature is turn the heater on to hot
and low that'll help get the rest of the
air out of the system just don't turn it
too high or the car will never warm up
while it's warming up watch the coolant
level and top it off anytime that you
need to once the temperature gets to
about 200 degrees you're good to go I
realized the thermostat opens at 220 but
that's above the boiling point and I
don't want to do that without the cap on
so replace the cap and took it for a
drive to get the coolant all mixed up
then I let it sit for an hour or so so
that way the coolant would cool off so I
wouldn't burn myself and I also wouldn't
put cold coolant in a hot engine drain
the coolant again using the same process
as before and when it stops close it up
and remove the hose and completely
remove the bleeder valve and we're gonna
fill it up with two and a half quarts of
full-strength
not the 50/50 that's how much we need to
get the 50/50 mix and the radiator when
we're done and top off the rest with the
distilled water
so once coolant comes out of the bleeder
valve go ahead and seal it back up
then we're gonna start it up and check
for leaks I'm gonna make sure nothing's
leaking is you don't want to be stuck on
the side of the road and bring it up to
full operating temperature and shut it
off make sure the coolant reservoir is
topped off and then closed the lid
you're gonna want to check this over the
next couple of weeks because it's the
air gets out the coolant level may drop
and it may need some more
then go underneath the car and replace
the plastic panel you're gonna want to
make sure you get the clips in the right
place it's a little bit of a trick those
have to slide on a portion of the car
and the only thing left to do is to
close the hood and admire your work.
You saved yourself a clean 100 bucks
Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 2018 | Complete Review | with Steve Hammes | TestDriveNow
Steve Hammes New Car Reviews:
In case you haven’t noticed, off-road trucks
are a thing and they’re gaining in popularity.
No longer do you need to up-fit a garden variety
pickup with aftermarket parts to accomplish
the task.
Companies like GM are providing the opportunity
to buy these serious off-road trucks straight
from the factory.
Case in point: the new Colorado ZR2.
This is the performance halo of the Colorado
lineup.
Chevy’s midsize truck can be had for as
little as $21,195 - if you’re cool with
a 2WD extended cab powered by a 4-cylinder
and 6-speed manual.
But the ZR2 starts at about twice that with
standard 4WD and an automatic transmission.
My attractive Cajun Red tester has been optioned
with the Duramax diesel and 6-speed auto in
crew cab/short box livery.
A V6 and 8-speed auto is standard.
A brutally cold week and a couple of small
snowfalls accompanied my ZR2 test, so the
favored muddy, rocky off-roading wasn’t
to be.
But this Colorado’s impressive engineering
resume translates to a number of driving environments
and clearly stands alone in the midsize segment.
Forget about the Tacoma TRD Pro, this Chevy
has bigger fish to fry like the mighty Ford
Raptor.
When it comes to hitting the trail, bigger
is not better, so the ZR2’s much shorter
and narrower dimensions make it more manageable.
The kicker on this truck is the DSSV dampers.
Short for Dynamic Suspensions Spool Valve
and sourced from the racing gurus at Multimatic,
these are highly engineered dampers specific
to off-road use and imbue the ZR2 with an
amazing sense of composure no matter where
it’s being driven.
Wheel movement and body motions acts as though
they’re being micromanaged to the finest
degree.
The jounce and relaxed nature usually associated
with driving a truck are nonexistent leading
to enhanced ride and control whether you’re
driving on- or off-road.
It feels more like the suspension of a performance-tuned
car and considering DSSV dampers have been
used on such elite machines as the Ford GT
and Mercedes-AMG GT it makes perfect sense.
They’re not available aftermarket either
but GM uses them on certain Camaros and this
is their first outing on a truck.
This is no doubt the leading contributor to
the ZR2’s formidable sticker price but as
they say, you’ve got to pay to play and
DSSV dampers are the golden ticket.
But there’s more to the ZR2 than just that.
Compared to a standard Colorado, the it features
front and rear tracks that have been widened
by 3.5 inches and a suspension lifted by two
inches affording nearly 9” of ground clearance.
Functional rockers have been added for better
protection over obstacles, the front and rear
bumpers have been modified for better off-road
clearance and a transfer case shield protects
the underbody.
And these 17” Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac
all-terrain tires absolutely love wintry conditions.
Add to that standard front and rear electronic
locking differentials, a sophisticated 4-wheel
drive system with an Off-road Mode and 2WD,
Auto, 4WD and 4 Lo settings, and a quiet hill
decent control system and you’ve got yourself
one incredibly capable truck done in a modern
fashion.
I always wanted Marty McFly’s truck from
Back to the Future and this ZR2 kind of reminds
me of that.
It has an undeniable coolness factor and is
equipped to go just about anywhere.
It’s sized just right and has modern 4-wheel
drive controls and a trick suspension.
The diesel’s sounds are more pronounced
than others but totally acceptable in a truck
and its torquey-ness is what truck buyers
crave.
And all is good on-road where the ZR2 feels
tight and sharply engineered.
The 2.8-liter 4-cylinder turbo diesel is a
$3,500 option that produces 369 pound-feet
of torque and 186 horsepower while netting
20mpg, extending the Colorado’s driving
range to 420 miles.
But it’s not going to save you anything
at the pump and can’t tow any more than
the V6’s 5000 pounds so its advantages are
more subjective.
It does come with an exhaust brake, trailer
brake controller and new for 2018 Active Tow
for help in aligning the truck with a trailer.
With options this ZR2 checks in at $47,970
and there are a million and one upgrades and
accessories you can add to make it your own.
It’s a big step up to get inside but once
hoisted reveals a fully modern interior featuring
the Chevy MyLink touchscreen including Wi-Fi,
OnStar, Navigation, and CarPlay, wireless
device charging, 2 USB ports, premium Bose
audio system, a color multi information driver
display, teen driver feature and rear seat
reminder.
The Easy Lift and Lower tailgate and spray-on
bedliner for the 5’ 2” box are also nice
touches.
Can you imagine Toyota putting in an effort
like this?
Heated seats and remote start were also
definitely appreciated this week.
There are 2 big omissions however: smart entry
with push button start and blind spot detection.
Also available as an Extended Cab with an
extra foot of bed length, the ZR2 is the truck
you never knew you needed but have always
wanted.
