Wild Custom Colorado Makes Quick Work of Trail Climb
Built by Fab Fours Bumpers, 2015 Colorado is stripped to its barest essentials, all motivated by a 5.9-liter Cummins diesel.
For most Colorado fans looking to climb over the biggest boulders and slip across the muddiest trails, the Chevrolet Bison is more than enough. The lumbering midsize truck was built to handle the sort of obstacles Ford’s Raptor wishes it could (though we bet the Bison can charge across the desert sand like the big dino, too). Plus, it still has plenty of uses away from the trail, too, including hauling camping gear.
For Fab Fours Bumpers of Lancaster, South Carolina, though, the Bison isn’t enough. They recently posted a video of their own off-road version of the Colorado, the Kymera, looking sick as it slipped up a muddy trail.
This insane custom Colorado was a 2015 model before Fab Fours got their hands on it. The truck was then stripped down to the cab, then given a narrower nose and bed, a custom cage with saw-tooth fins on top, and a twin-turbo 5.9-liter Cummins 12-valve diesel to move the monster anywhere it wants to go.
Where this badass Colorado wants to go today is up this rocky, muddy incline along the trail. With the doors off, and the Cummins howling away, the beast makes quick work of the first section of the incline, thanks to the thick, gnarly off-road rubber surrounding the custom 20-inch wheels.
For its next trick, the Colorado uses its custom four-wheel-steering system to scale up the more difficult portion of the trail. At one point, it even crab-walks up the slabs of rock to further its quest, its LED tail lights pulsing with every stab of the brake pedal, its diesel coaling-it up like a smokey dragon.
Once completely up the hill, the evil Colorado slithers away into the shadows of the forest ahead, ready to bring the hammer down upon all who stand in its way of off-road domination. We definitely know no Raptor can pull this off, as it’s just too big to try. And while the Ranger could give such a path its best shot, it’ll never have anything on the mud monster from South Carolina.
