[3400-3500 lbs with 295hp and 300+ lb-ft. These things will be as fast as Mustang GTs!

Then imagine what the Holden SS Ute will do with 362hp.

I cant wait to test drive one of these, id almost consider trading my 98 Z71 in on one if i could afford it. definitely a needed move.

On a side note I recently saw what looked like a new Colorado with the sealed beam headlamps fleet-style black plastic grille. Really rare to see those, it may be the second I've ever seen on the road since noticing it in the brochure years ago.[/quote]

I drive 200 miles a day and have only seen one fleet-style,I think its a Carquest parts truck.5.3 Colorado would be nice.

Being an owner, when i first bought mine, it was rare, i have the ZQ8 package, so turned even more heads, i went to the plant in Sherevport and saw them in the making, saw v8 h3 and they had 1 test mule with a v8, it will be nice to get some mean power from the v8, i think a sts turbo will be nice
