Surely these tires don't come from the factory like this.

Originally the Z71 was supposed to come with BFG AT KO's but the beancounters nixed that.
The Z71 "trailboss" (joke) edition comes with Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac's which are meh IMO.

Bring the ZR2 back GM!!!

Z71 Trail boss

it appears to juts be a Z71 with a rear locker,a transfer case skid plate, steel rockers, and beefy tires.
Doesn't the Z71 already have the rear locker? $3320 seems like a ton for this package

Those Dynapros are bad ass tires, have them on my xterra and they rip through snow. Best part I got them on sale for $500.

I love my Duratracs on my lifted blazer, they are so lightweight compared to other mud tires. No I wouldn't use them for rock crawling but I've given mine quite a bit of abuse and they have never failed me.

Chevy Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition: On Point, Off Road
When adventure calls, the Trail Boss has your back

CLEVELAND – For those who want to blaze their own trails, Chevrolet introduces the 2015 Colorado Z71 Trail Boss edition today at the Cleveland Auto Show.

The Trail Boss combines the capability of Chevrolet’s Z71 off-road truck suspension package with more aggressive tires and additional appearance enhancements. It is offered in extended and crew cab configurations, with a choice of a long or short cargo bed and available 4WD.

The Trail Boss goes on sale this spring with a starting price of $28,505 plus the package price of $3,320.

“The Chevrolet Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition is equally at home blazing an urban trail or following one to a favorite remote campground,” said Tony Johnson, Colorado marketing manager. “It gives owners the gear-carrying ability and versatility they need to venture off-road, with segment-leading efficiency and capability.”

In addition to Chevy’s proven off-road truck suspension package, the Colorado Z71 Trail Boss Edition features Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac 265/65R17 all-terrain tires and 17-inch dark argent metallic painted cast-aluminum wheels; GearOn™ moveable cargo tie-down rings, load bar and cargo divider; with black fender flares and front and rear black Chevy bowtie logos.

Additional features include:

G80 automatic locking rear differential
Transfer case shield (on 4WD)
Front recovery hooks
Black, three-inch round rocker steps
Spray-on bedliner
Projector beam headlamps
Front fog lamps
All-weather floor mats with Z71 logo.
The Trail Boss is the second Colorado special edition announced recently. Last month, Chevrolet introduced the 2015 Colorado GearOn Special Edition, which blends the capability of the midsize pickup truck with the versatility of the GearOn accessory system – and additional popular features. It also goes on sale this spring.

Colorado, the 2015 Motor Trend Truck of the Year and Cars.com’s Best Pickup Truck of 2015, offers the most horsepower and best highway efficiency in the segment, as well as the highest available trailering rating – 7,000 pounds (V-6 2WD) – and higher payload rating – 1,590 pounds (V-6 2WD).
