kaotik1 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Maybe AWD yeah right. It's too cool for GM to produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thrift23 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Whoever wrote that article is an idiot, or maybe they were just hoping the TBSS had the LS7. I wonder how people who know nothing about these vehicles get jobs to write about them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimC3 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 I caught that as well.. My only guess is that he was referring to the engine in this concept Colorado SS vs the engine in the concept TBSS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XGMTech Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 Even though that article had a lot of errors, it gets my imagination going. I'd love to see that Colorado SS happen - I'd even buy one if it came with a V-8. Think about this: it would weigh around 3600 lbs, give or take (I just went to chevrolet.com and got the weight of an ext. cab Colorado, and rounded up a little bit since it would have a V-8 instead of a 4 or 5 cyl). If it came with an LS2 (390 hp), and you did a few mods and got it to around 450 hp (just 60 more than stock - tuning, a CAI and headers/exhaust would probably get you close), you would have a mid-to-low 12 second truck according to my horsepower calculator. And all that is before any kind of FI or nitrous... But, kaotik1 is probably right: It's too cool for GM to produce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUTOGUY Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 And maybe a regular cab with a 6 Speed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PladdPezzPunk Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 definately a sweet ride. a little small for me but it would for sure blow the SSS away. I don't think GM will go too far with that on though. at least not like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdriveGTP Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 With all the cuts at GM (and the other US automakers for that matter)....all of these really cool thing are probably on the chopping block....they aren't going to spend money on a vehicle that will only sell less that 5k units per year.....they want BIG numbers. ....but I would love to have one!

ChevyMan23 Posted December 29, 2005 Report Share Posted December 29, 2005 That truck was at the Power Tour...sounded badass and one of the reps or whoever he was..driving it...said look for it to hit the showrooms eventually....so..who knows...

BigTsBadSS Posted December 30, 2005 Report Share Posted December 30, 2005 If they make that truck I will be first in line to buy one that thing looks bad ass. I will pray they make that truck I am already drooling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChevySSandChevy8.1 Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 That truck is very cool. If it came with the LS2 and a 6 speed I'd be all over it (we all pray that it would get an LS7 but theres no chance GM would do it). Thats colorado looked so nice doing a burnout with its stance and all. I hope it makes it into production, with the balls that the concept has.

Jonmalibuss Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Some power tour pics I took of the mini trucks that GM had there. If I remember right this also as the LS2 in it. The S-10 has an LS1 in it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
