ZR2 Silverado. Not even hybrid. Not really sure how this is a game changer.

Chevy. Save yourself the click ?
Iā€™d say worse than that. Chevy Silverado ZR2. Itā€™s cool, but I donā€™t know how itā€™s a ā€˜game changerā€™ or ā€˜first of its kindā€™ā€”itā€™s just the GM response to the Ford Raptor and Ram TRX.

I didnā€™t expect the R1T. I thought maybe it would be Hummer EV in an attempt to steal some thunder away from the R1T release.

I'm hoping that GM gives enough information about the upcoming Silverado EV before my Rivian is delivered that I can be 100% sure I'm buying the right vehicle, but if they don't, I'm definitely not going to wait.

Almost 100% that the Chevy will mimic the Ford and not the R1T. If you want the Lightening with a bowtie, it will be pretty close to what they offer.

What a tease. The Silverado ZR2 isn't 'game changing' and it's barely even special. It's an also-ran in a tiny segment that is already dominated by two better options.

I figured these guys were grandstanding idiots based on their prior content. This confirms it.

These TFL guys are some of the most annoying automotive reporters. Their constant click-baity videos and base-level reporting is just useless youtube influencer BS.
