Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
Ultimate1 you are the man. I still wouldn't want a nasty door on the side of the truck, but I could see how it would be handy as a work truck feature.

Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
That's cool! Seems like the Ford version goes all the way across... I wonder if GM has different versions for the Colorado... some with one large space, others with drawers like in the photo, one with hangers...?

Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
I dig that!
I think that truck bed innovations are really untapped..theres soo many possibilities. The only problem is, it's difficult to produce truck boxes that fit everyones specific needs, plus the cost, because it may be easier/cheaper for a buisiness just to go for aftermarket toolboxes. However things like this..what Ford is doing..and even the Ridgelines cooler under the floor of the bed is all pretty cool. I still wish someone would listen to me at GM and start making remote tailgate droppers. Being able to lower the tailgate from the keyfob would be pretty convenient.

Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
For those who don't want to click on the PDF, here is what it looks like. Looks almost exactly like the Ford solution!
![]() GM also has an "Astro Package" available for the Colorado and Canyon that supposedly captures all of the Astro's cargo area in a behind-the-cab box. I can't find a photo at the moment, but here's the link: http://www.media.gm.com/us/fco/en/pr...o%20series.htm |

Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
If you're talking about the door panel being lower than the other panel on the side of the bed, it appears it is like that on the Colorado and F-150. Perhaps that's so the top of the door doesn't rub against a cap.

Re: Colorado with Mid Box Storage like F150
Judging from the lack of Colorado's I've seen with one of these things, it should do about as well with the F-150.
I would say it is very useful, but the door handle is FUGLY!!

It sounds like it turns the Colorado/Canyon into something like a large sedan delivery type vehicle, someone needs to find a photo of this. |
