SS Colorado - 12/21/2007 8:41:22 PM    techboy07   Posts: 3 Joined: 12/21/2007 Status: offline So how about this ellieged SS Colorado? its supposed to boast a 5.3 gen 4 and a 6 speed man trans or a 4L60E auto trans with kevlar bands, corvette servo, ect... also, another rumor going through the dealer is that the duramax is going to be downsized and stuffed into a half ton... i'll believe both when i see them though... _____________________________ You think you know, but you don't know anything...

I bet the diesel would be really popular with its good mileage. _____________________________ VOTE for Ride Of The Month!!! PM me for a custom sig or avatar! (in reply to techboy07) Post #: 2

Personally I think the design of the Colorado is hideous, even if they made an SS model with the 5.3 putting out 350 HP or more I wouldn't even think about buying it. My opinion they should bring the S-10 back with a new body style and interior more closely resembling the new silverados and keep the 4.3 but upgrade the electronics and tranny to give it better mileage and crank more power. _____________________________ CLICK HERE and Vote in the June 2008 Ride Of The Month (in reply to ehhget) Post #: 7

I like the Colorado though... I drove one for a while and I was surprised with how much MORE powerful the inline 5 is than our V6s. What ultimately flabbergasted me was how well the Colorado pulled our boat as compared to my Blazer. _____________________________ VOTE for Ride Of The Month!!! PM me for a custom sig or avatar!

The power was serious lagging. I wouldn't drive that truck if Chevy gave it to me for free. I'd sell it and buy some stuff for the blaze! _____________________________ CLICK HERE and Vote in the June 2008 Ride Of The Month (in reply to EuroGoldLS) Post #: 9
