From the sound of post by @Badwater 134 594 total . . . Love to confirm that!

Wouldn't it be nice if GM acknowledged the limited run unicorn. One of my first cars was a FIAT X 1/9 limited run, got a sticker (and where to place it) a few months after I got her.

2023 Desert Boss article white. purchased in January 24’ approximately 600 miles on it. Truxedo X15 Pro cover (I really like that Bak revolverX4S after seeing it on the Black Pearl)

I almost considered a rigid roll up as well, but at double the price, loss of bed space from the rollup box (this is my first shortbed truck) plus my doubts with our winters and ice, decided not to. Still nags me though since I'm not using my truck like I once did.

Funny, I know its winch capable, but I don't remember a winch being an option on the chevy build sheet and at how much. Someone here does have winch installed though.

Any way to confirm the total production numbers for '23 AT4X Edition 1? I figure it should be at least as rare as the Desert Boss

I would think it was not as limited as the DBoss, its an upscale GMC version of the ZR2, and still available.

 

[Xcanuk]

My bad, never clicked/knew of the "edition 1"

 

[Xcanuk]

Is it available in 2024?

 

[Xcanuk]

Back to the Task.. DBoss owners chime in, with pictures if you can

 

[Xcanuk]

Should we have unicorn stickers made and a secret handshake ?
594 for North America ? (Canada and US)

 

[Xcanuk]

Have had my Desert Boss since beginning of last December.

Also, that 594 number is WILD if that’s accurate. I knew it was limited, that’s crazy limited though

Never thought I'd like the color, but you proved me wrong. I remember your install for the tonneau.. commitment!

23 ZR2 Desert Boss with 2" Level up front lift 1" rear leaf lift. Trifecta Tune electronics tune. 35x12.5x17 with Level up front steering reinforcement sleves.
Its beatiful and rolling rolling Moab mid May 12 trails over 2 weeks.

Very Nice, guess you have the tallest, didn't know a tune was out for the 23
Have fun in Moab, looking forward to the pictures

There were 2 Edition 1s in Indiana when I was looking to buy.

Curious, do you use that bed rack yours came with? (forgot the proper name)
My DBoss is my first short bed, still wondering if I can rack mine, I have a bunch of crossbars from previous trucks that I deemed "might come in handy one day pile"

 

[Xcanuk]

I plan on having a custom rack bar welded to my roll bar assembly down low. Light level.

Like to see what you come up with, I know I can also lower the rack and play with the tailgate at the 45deg angle for longer loads, but ideally I would have it above and keep the tailgate and tonneau closed. More for Ladders etc, just awkward stuff.

 

[Xcanuk]

nothing yet, she's still stock.

Nice, but your DB looks REAL familiar, don't know why?
Take of the front plate bracket, if you have a good allen key and a torx, use a socket wrench, they torqued it on good.
Your first mod, be gentle

I'm in Jersey, not sure where ya at.

Montreal, I'm due for the New York / Jersey run this summer (usually in the Maywood area if that says anything to you, then Wildwood area)
We could have a Twin meet

 

[Xcanuk]

Unofficially I call mine Knight.. or that is what I called it in the Chevy App
I still have to badge it with my xcanuk sticker ( I've badged so many my vehicles with my sticker, neighbors thought it was a dealer)

 

[Xcanuk]

Good deal on a Desert Boss.

Given the limited run, surprised there are some left, must have been the higher initial price, or late production run. ( Got mine because original buyer backed out )
Mmm no decal on tailgate, neither on mine, waiting for answer from dealer to have it installed. Any other Black DB without tailgate decal?

 

[Xcanuk]

Ok Here's the challenge, who will be the first to grab a pic of 2 DBoss's together or with an Edition 1.
(Going to a dealership with one on the lot does not count)
Bonus points for Twins (same color)
Mine is still the only DBoss from my dealership, (actually 2 dealerships) so I'm pretty sure there is none in my area.

 

[Xcanuk]

Its a decimal typo,... Gherbert corrected it... The number is in metric for us canadians 😀

 

[Xcanuk]

When you have to Prove everything you know about Mathematcs to be True
Yeah that was fun

I search for it on the lnternet therefore it must be true.. want the link ?
