Viperkiller97 Posted March 31, 2006 Report Share Posted March 31, 2006 I think with the laws changing in 2008 for trucks and SUV's designed by the government will have a helluva impact on us. Imagine a Silverado SS getting 23 MPG This new Colorado SS will most likly have a smaller engine or maybe a 5.3 with DOD The entire proposal is outlined in a lengthy government document, but the fuel economy targets appear to be: 2008 From 26.8 mpg for the smallest vehicles to 20.4 mpg for the largest 2009 From 27.4 mpg for the smallest vehicles to 21.0 mpg for the largest 2010 From 27.8 mpg for the smallest vehicles to 20.8 mpg for the largest 2011 From 28.4 mpg for the smallest vehicles to 21.3 mpg for the largest Did I just open a can of worms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaos Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 Will GM let it go into production? Article perty sure that truck is fast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrAzYMoPaRGuY Posted July 3, 2007 Report Share Posted July 3, 2007 I must be the only one who would rather see the Silverado in higher hp trim than that Colorado? I don't really like the looks of the Colorado, and the weight might be an issue vs the Silverado, but the Silverado is more useful IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheo Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 THAT LIL TRUcK looks sweeet!! ill get one if they make it, it would be a lot lighter since its based off the colorado frame. im dwn to getting one in black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black2003SS Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Old Old news guys...article is two years old and GM has yet to announce anything. With plans to replace the colorado by 2010 with a new model possibly or axe it all together, I doubt we will ever see it in production... Find a good tuner, custom builder to do the swap for you. Probably looking at 15-20k above the cost of the donor truck...just an FYI... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 that thing is pretty sick but like you all said.... GM just wouldnt produce something that would sell so well and would be a combination of fast AND good-looking, a usually unheard-of GM concept, only broken thus far by the Z06 !

Rausche Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 That thing would be pretty nasty if they built it... I'd buy it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpoSStor SS Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 The upcoming V8 Colorado would be a good starting point. If GM doesn't make what you want to buy, build your own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelleyperformance Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 i think the only thing getting a V8 is the H3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpoSStor SS Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 The H3 will be getting it first. Like anything else at GM, cancellations are a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 I do have some part numbers for the 5.3L Colorado. It shows that it's going to be available in the extended and crew cab only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
