If the Colorado gets an honest 20 mpg city,Chevy should be Yelling to the world.Oh,the Colorado 5 cyl was a lot faster than my very slow Tacoma-sure as hell not 16 fast,maybe 17 or so,and 10 sec 0-60.Thanks,Charlie PS They should make it 5 inches longer and put the 275 hp straight six in it.I like straight sixes.

One major engineering faux pas for GM is that people are wanting in-line sixes and V8's in the Colorado and this can't be done without a total redesign.
