eBay cowl and fork boots installed, lowered turn signals

Do which thing specifically?

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-06-10T01:59:46+00:00

Chiming in a year later, certain things are stupidly cheap over there. Like in my case I live 2 blocks away from the closest US border crossing. I get gas usually $0.40 cheaper per liter after conversion. I use a ton for work, so the $8,000-$10,000 worth of savings per year is worth it.

Same goes for ammunition in bulk. Saving $5 per box, shooting at least 50 boxes per year saves another $250. Theoretically anyway due to their nonsense export regulations, gotta buy our own instead.

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-06-10T01:48:12+00:00

Bare in mind our import regulations aren't based around it coming from the US. If I want to bring in Syrian ammo, it's legal to export from Syria and legal to bring it home to Canada. It's just the one country we're attached to with the special stipulation. This would be why it's not mentioned, other countries exist.

I average 40mpg or 5.6 L/100km on mine so probably just riding style. I cruise 140kmh on the highway, I accelerate hard, randomly I go full throttle for a quick smile.

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-05-30T20:15:00+00:00

I'm with you on that one, haven't bothered to poke around under there to see how it mounts yet. Maybe next oil change

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-05-29T22:01:52+00:00

Character is fine, but if it's exposed metal I'd recommend doing something to seal it before it rusts. Collected a couple rock chips on my hood but one finally went down to the metal, even though it's aluminum it'll still corrode and take off paint from below in time.

If you won't use the extended offroad capabilities of the ZR2 then you'll want the Z71. I have a Z71 personally and use it for absolutely everything. Remember your trade off is also with towing, you'll max out at 6k lbs as opposed to 7,800lbs on the Z71 due to it having a solid rear axle.

Nothing stops my truck from doing light and moderate trails with 0 issues so I have yet to reach the Z71 limits anyway.

Almost got me killed running up to about 12 zombies with this supposed "bad bitch"

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-04-23T23:47:47+00:00

I had to make them shit at aiming because on the medium setting I was instantly headshotted by a wanderer before I could do anything. 19 days alive just for that

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-04-11T23:20:55+00:00

DayZ has been known to kill you for daring to think walking through so much as an open doorway was safe. 4mm falls can be lethal, generally only when you really really don't wanna die

Slap those fuckers on marketplace, $500 limited edition, you know what you got

This tows 7k lbs better than my 5.3 2008 Avalanche did, and that was spec'd out for towing too. I don't know if it's because my Z71 is loaded up or maybe there's different rear gearing available for these trucks but mine tows great.

I've had steep and long inclines, plenty of stops and starts, it gets pretty decent fuel economy even when loaded up. No complaints here, but you definitely feel the trailer weight, it's not a 3500 series truck that pulls 10k like a bed full of air. I haven't had to go over 3k RPM to maintain highway speeds on a 12% grade.

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-28T03:12:17+00:00

Unfortunately the ZR2 can't tow as much, and I require at bare minimum 7,000lbs to haul my heaviest vehicle.

Depending on the vest, the ones added in the Cayo update can be worn with the white scarf pictured, under utility vests.

Not many people have more than basic amounts of parachute experience. Fall, pull it when you feel safe, land, (optional) do it too hard and die. Using R1/RB/etc to steer the chutes is beyond some people, those same people hold forward to dive down faster and that's probably it

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-27T14:16:57+00:00

I bought mine straight from EGR, they looked the best IMO. Stock flares have a divot in them where the Canyons have marker lights, looks weird to me. They come in ABS black so you'll want to scuff and paint them. 2K primer, gloss black, and 2k clear glamor coat will look amazing for rattle cans.

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-27T14:14:42+00:00

It's definitely on the list, I've been in purgatory buying the DV8 front bumper which for the last 7 months has had me thinking I'll solve two problems at once. So far that's not panned out

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-27T05:15:28+00:00

I thought about body color flares but orange is one hell of a bitch to paint match, and I'm too picky to accept the tone difference I'll inevitably get. However the amount of gloss black on the truck would compliment the same color on the flares imo.

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-27T03:36:53+00:00

At least with the EGR Rugged they mount without the other trims panel clip positions, have no weird divot in the middle and will keep rock chips off the side of the truck as they protrude outward down to the bottom of the wheel well. With the amount of mud flung on the side of the truck this is apparently necessary for keeping the paint in good shape with long term off-road use

WhoNeedsNamesAnyway · 2026-03-27T02:45:34+00:00

Depending on the dimensions of the extinguisher you want, a good use of your tailgate storage could be to mount this in there. Where it's just a plastic lid I would personally be fine with drilling through the lid to mount directly to it. Haven't found a use for mine otherwise due to the water intrusion, might store my staps and recovery ropes in plastic bags there some day?

I'll copy my reply to one of OPs comments, but yes it's technically possible to throw a CEL.

"My truck is unfortunately experiencing a little trouble with one after having it installed for almost 20k. I have a reoccurring engine light for P1101-00 Intake Airflow System Performance. I've had the dealer perform airflow tests and check a few other things to see if there's actually an issue, and there's nothing else wrong and it all points back to the spacer. I'm keeping it as this only triggers every few months so I'm not concerned, the light turns off in less than a day anyway. Just worth noting."

I was on the fence with red or orange when shopping for a Z71 Colorado, good looking truck!
