New to Chevy with a 2500 ZR2, 6.6l Gas

[Grassman34]

Wanted to say Hello,
Just bought my first Chevy ever, Could not get over how good the new ZR2 looked, and value it offered for the price. Have always owned Tundra's (2007,2010,2012,2015), Then a 2018 F250 that was a great truck but Ford is stuck in the past and needs a new body style so I made the leap. So far so good looking to add a Bedrug and Tonneau Cover. Also waiting on factory running boards and black out labeling. Really exited for the weather in Ohio to warm up to tear up the town in my new rig.

Congrats. I went from a Tundra as well, MPGs were very similar (gas). I’m loving the truck so far, got mine is August.

This Ohio weather sucks!

Got the factory running boards added, and the blackout badges.
Nice to be able to get into the truck without ripping jeans. Lol
Looking for mud flaps and how to install a roof light for work or if I am going to run a z flash lighting card.

Nice! What Tonneau Cover did you go with?

 

[thorZR2]

I went with a BakFlip MX4 Tonneau Cover for my 2500. It’s built solid and was easy to install. My only gripe is I still get a good amount of water in the truck bed when it rains and going through washes. I honestly feel they could have made it a little longer length wise to give more room for fit.

GATOR TAILBACK HARD FOLDING TONNEAU COVER
I had a tri fold that was flush to the bed on my last truck and it always had issues with freezing down to the bed and tailgate in the winter, and I was always afraid of the cable release at the tailgate being susceptible to being broken into since al you had to do was put a hanger under the seal and pull the cable and it would open up.
The gator doesn't sit flush so there is no track to install, and it has a pull down latch on each side that you can not get to unless you drop the tailgate.
I put a bed seal on and had to do some sealing at the head of the bed but have not had any water get into the bed so far.
