The **Custom Trail Boss** combines the Custom's exterior style and convenience features with factory off-road upgrades: a Z71 Off-Road Package, off-road suspension, skid plates, hill descent control, a factory 2-inch lift, 18-inch black all-terrain wheels, and recovery hooks.

The **LT Trail Boss** takes this further, pairing the LT's refined interior-leather-appointed seating, premium cloth, 13.4-inch infotainment, and advanced safety tech-with the same trail-ready suspension and underbody protection. It also includes advanced trailering tech.

Both are factory-ready for challenging terrain. Choose Custom Trail Boss for work-focused off-road capability; choose LT Trail Boss if you want rugged versatility with upscale comfort for both wilderness and urban driving. Call (715) 833-0444 to test drive either at Markquart Motors.
