#36 of 1033 Colorado Specs on Cargo Box by ghislain Feb 22, 2003 (1:33 am)
Does anyone have any specs on the size of the cargo box in the crewcab version of the Colorado. Any data on approx. Gas mileage for the I5? When is this truck hitting the showrooms? June or Sept?
#37 of 1033 Any ideas on the pricing for the Colorado/Canyon by shawnc2 Feb 24, 2003 (8:08 pm)
I've been hearing a lot about the new midsize truck that GM is going to build next year like options, suspension, and engine size, but no mention of price. Has anyone stumbled across a predicted MSPR for these new comers or is it going to be a huge secret. I hope it won't be exceding the 30K+ price tag of the four door S-10, which is way overpriced. You'd be better off going with a full size.
#38 of 1033 Any ideas on the pricing for the Colorado/Canyon by ghislain Feb 25, 2003 (2:48 pm)
I have come across a WEB Site a few weeks ago that stated that apparently the Colorado/Canyon price will remain approx the same as the current S10/Somoma prices which would make Colorado/Canyon a little more palatable. I hope someone at GM is listening; your product is a tad overpriced. GM has good products but if you go to Dodge and Ford Website and use the Build your own vehicle you will see why the Dodge Quad Cabs and are multiplying like rabbits and the F150 is the best selling truck.   PS any idea of what the Payload and Max towing capacity of the I5 200hp will be?

#40 of 1033 Ok let me clear up some junk! by aldan93 Feb 26, 2003 (9:29 pm)
I work next to the engine facility were they make the I5, I was told it will pump out upwards of 240 HP, but with pollution controls ect... it will do slightly less! The great thing is that the darn things will avg 20 MPG! From what I'm hearing this is going to kill Ford Ranger, Dodge Dakota truck lines! GM is going to price these things very aggressive! It is a nice looking truck! The mid size SUV on the same platform is even nicer! This thing will tow 4500 lbs!
#41 of 1033 crew-cab S10 and Sonoma small pickups through 2005 by ghislain Mar 05, 2003 (6:38 pm)
Interesting statement By Dave Guilford Automotive News / February 24, 2003 at http://www.gminsidenews.com/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=4&t=- 690   DETROIT - General Motors will assemble crew-cab versions of the Chevrolet S10 and GMC Sonoma small pickups through 2005 as it sells their replacements.   The Sonoma and S10 are built in the Linden, N.J., truck plant, which also builds the Chevrolet Blazer mid-sized SUV. GM's small pickups will be replaced by the mid-sized Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, which will arrive in late fall from the retooled Shreveport, La., plant.   Tom Wallace, vehicle line executive for mid-sized trucks, says that although the new pickups will have nine models, GM would be short of crew cabs without the Linden production.   Wallace said the Colorado and Canyon will be offered in regular, extended and crew-cab versions, each with regular, sport and high-trim packages.   GM projects annual sales of up to 175,000 Colorados and up to 40,000 Canyons.
#42 of 1033 Could be a winner.... by mbatchelor Mar 11, 2003 (5:10 am)
If fuel prices keep rising and if the crewcab with the I5 can get between 20-25mpg highway it should be a winner.  I'm going to give GM at least a year to work the bugs out before making my decision.

#45 of 1033 Thanks by logic1 Mar 16, 2003 (8:17 pm)
The mpg on the 2.8 is great. Get a manual, and you're talking 28 mpgs.
