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...

I hope so. That would be a good thing for Chevy to do. I bet the diesel would be really popular with its good mileage.

Yea there is a 4.8L Diesel scheduled for 09 in the half tons. It is rated at 310 HP and 520 lp.-ft.

They need to do something to get more colodaro's on the road. I still want to see the ss HHR in person. [&:]

Yeah I dont see many Colorados out there.  I read an competition in Car and Driver with the Colorado in it and it came in dead dead last.  I remember one guy saying "its almost like chevy didnt want to compete"  the nissans and toyotas blew it away.  Lot of complints about the interior, they need to fix that truck and get back to S-10 sales.

Well c'mon its a 5 cylinder engine that puts out less than alot of tuner cars. 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.

I agree with you there about bringing back the s-series. 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.

I don't know Brent, when I rode in one it felt like I was riding inside a box, inside a box. 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!

lol. Some things never change Troy!
