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. |

| The mpg on the 2.8 is great. Get a manual, and you're talking 28 mpgs. | |
| Anyone know if CHevy has plans to make an suv version of the colorado? Maybe to replace the blazer, which I hear is going out in 2005? Or any plans to make trailblazer more rugged? Really like the ZR2 Blazer, but don't know whether to buy or wait for something else | |

someone claiming to be a GM insider posted that there will be a Colorado based SUV. I have not seen anything published with a byline saying this. It might be good idea, however. The Equinox, like the Escape, CRV, RAV4, etc. will be basically a tall car. That would leave the Freelander and the Liberty as the only real small truck SUV. GM could possibly have a player in both the car and the truck small suv market. |

| If you hunt on the internet, there are plenty of pictures of the new colorado based SUV? Just look a little. | |
| Does anyone know release date? Price for crew cabs? | |

| If Chevrolet thinks that they can compete with the Dodge Dakota with a I5 they must be smoking some powerful shit. I have always been a GM fan but I would rather buy a Dodge Dakota than the Colorado because I could get a V8 engine. Make the 5.3L V8 an option or at lest the 4.2L I6 and then I would consider looking at the Colorado | |
