General Motors has released the first images of the new 2022 Chevy Colorado Trail Boss package.
The newly introduced Trail Boss package for the 2022MY Chevy Colorado bridges the gap between the Z71 trim level and the ultra-capable Colorado ZR2. The package will be tagged with RPO code PEC and will add the following LPO-level, dealer installed equipment to the mid-size pickup:
- 17″ High gloss Black wheels (RPO SE0)
- Red recovery hooks (RPO W0H)
- Black tailgate lettering (RPO SB9)
- Black Colorado emblems (RPO SMG)
- Front 1″ Leveling Kit (RPO SQS)
- Performance Front Skid Plate (RPO SIQ)
- Performance Mid Skid Plate (RPO SIR)
These upgrades give the Chevy Colorado a more off-road-focused exterior and some added capability to back up the truck’s burly outward appearance. The package is offered on both the LT and Z71 trim levels equipped with four-wheel-drive.
As we noted previously, the Colorado Trail Boss Package with the LT trim level will also include the Black Bowtie Emblem Package (RPO SG1) and cannot be combined with the Chrome Appearance Package (RPO WGQ), Redline Special Edition (RPO WGQ) or any LPO-level wheels. On Z71 trim level trucks, the Trail Boss Package cannot be combined with the Z71 Midnight Edition package (RPO PDN) or any LPO-level wheels.
It’s worth noting that GM previously offered a similar Trail Boss package on the 2015 and 2016MY Chevy Colorado, which included different off-road-focused equipment such as an automatic locking differential, a transfer case shield, front recovery hooks and black three-inch round rocker steps, among more.
We’re still awaiting pricing for the Chevy Colorado Trail Boss package, as well as the entire 2022 Chevy Colorado lineup. Pricing for the 2021MY Chevy Colorado starts at $26,685 for the Work Truck (WT) trim level with two-wheel-drive including a $1,195 destination charge. Considering the mid-cycle update for the Chevy Colorado was released for the 2021MY, we don’t anticipate any major changes to the model’s pricing structure for the 2022MY.

Too bad it doesn’t actually sit like the blue truck in the image of the red and blue truck together. Clearly a bit of photoshop going on there with both the truck height and tire size.
Meanwhile the Silverado and Sierra… crickets
Really? Basically a sticker package and some black paint which by the way costs about the same as the silver paint. And yet the interior still stands the test of time. Hey GM, the outside is for everyone else, how about some creativity inside where the person that shelled out those hard earned dollars sits day in and day out. Try reminding me why I bought Gm while I’m not looking at the outside. Your interiors are boring, predictable, unimaginative, in essence, flatlined since 2016 and before that 2004. There, I said it.
2023 refresh is on the way. It should cover most of these issues.
Shaggy, how did you get the privilege to see the inside interior. we just get a glance at some of the exterior
Really? Have you ever been in a GM product? I don’t even think they change the picture on the build-a-chevy site for 6 years. I’ll apologize if they do anything with the interior of an end of line refresh.
I’m not a fan of the updated front. It looks busy and heavy. I really hope they get it right with the upcoming refresh. And yes…the interior needs a lot of help…just like nearly every Chevy product. I have a 2020 Colorado. I see it every day.
If we get a 16 owner, because I have an 18 zr2 , we know exactly where every button is hidden.
I have a 2015 Z71, V6, 4×4. Love the way it handles and it gets decent gas mileage. However, the climate system is abysmal (TSB’s didn’t fix it) and the wonky transmission has been a mess since new (programming or TC issue) TSB’s never fixed that either. Really too bad because I have preferred GM vehicles in the past. They have nothing I really like at the moment…except the Corvette, and that is not practical in my situation.
Get a Trifecta tune. It will solve all your problems. I did it for my 2016 and it shifts like butter now.
Serious question, why would you plunk down almost 50k… If you got the top end model… Knowing full well every aspect of it is a let down save for the towing capacity which is one of the highest for the segment.
GM will get this right in 20233
I have been a Chevy person but I will never buy another Chevy Colorado may not never buy another GM product because of the way that I was done on the recalls on my Chevy Colorado very dissatisfied in general motors and I’m really thinking about buying some other brand from now on
Hardly any issues on both my 2016 Canyon and 2018 Colorado ZR2. You may have a lemon. Also, remember that every dealer is different and you may have a terrible one. The owner of that dealer probably also owns other brand dealerships such as Toyota, Ford, Nissan etc.
They are not reliable and have a lot of issues with the electrical I won’t never own another one
I own a 09 Colorado 4×4 v8 fully optioned. I personally do not own 2nd gen but have many friends that do and did… The ones that still have them – no big complaints but would like to have additional options. The ones that did, moved on to bigger trucks for towing or to SUVs for new family members and space. These people didn’t cry for lack of a cup holder or wanted Italian leather instead industrial style leather… These aren’t people that cry about not having LEDs and want a new model or go to another manufacturer cause the “new change” has LEDs and stripes… then complain. If that’s what they want, they simply buy it…
I kept Colorado v8 and added my LEDs…
This going to be dropped right at the feet of the Canyon AT4. That was the missing link. GM brilliance.
Recalls went over board with gm due to having to pay and deal with the ignition switch court issues. Since that, gm addresses just about issue with a recall to stay out of court. On the flip side, the imports do just about anything to stay out of the recalls by fixing issues during the free oil changes and fail to tell the owners what they did in the garages. My friends work for Honda and Toyota and they do some sneaky stuff to keep the DOT out of the lobby. Look at VW, slapped with 100s of millions payback for ecm smog fraud…
Anyway, not a fan of the front. I do like the Bison design and the rear of this design. IMO, getting additional equipment to give the appearance of an off road vehicle that can handle gravel roads for outdoor activities. Keeping the ZR2 in the line and a step above for that aggressive off road if you want that true off road is a great way to cover this particular segment of small truckers.
I like the this but not so much the fascia.
Thoroughly disappointed. This updates seems phoned in. The interior is last place among mid size pickups, the exterior is 2 generations behind and overall, it’s over priced. With the quality of interior materials and investment by GM it should be the value leader. It’s not. Only redeeming quality to keep it up there with the Ranger is the towing capacity. Which, isn’t that far ahead in terms of design and materials.
If only they had the magical outsourced off shore chips to build them.
Looks good!
