Agreed. The Xtreme was a great looking truck (both as an S10 and Colorado). But I much prefer the Ext. Cab over the awkwardly long body on the quad cab. (Though even in quad cab it's a better looking truck than most others.)

You can see the inherent differences in market taste. I think the headlights on the red Colorado look quite awkward though the execution of the rest of it is nice enough. I much prefer the Oz colorado (except as I said before, in regard to the headlight black background).

I have to say I'd buy a Tacoma or Frontier over that new Colorado any day if it looked like that here in the US. I can't say the same of the current US Colorado, I like it more than the others.

Especially in the former Xtreme trim level.

Considering that most people who buy Rodeos and previously the Jackaroo and Frontera, know that they are Isuzu's anyway, I think Isuzu will do well with the D-Max on the Australian market.

Holden I think, will have no trouble selling the Colorado either.

Yes, but are the people that buy the Dmax going to be the same people that would've bought a Colo~rodeo? I think so in the main.

That is what I was getting at. Is it going to dilute the " Colo~rodeo" numbers or are the two going to increase the overall "Rodeo" segment?

well here in the US the Colorado is the main truck then the Canyon and Isuzu verison (I280, I290, I350, and I370) are the 2 minorites. The H3 though based on the same platform can't really be put into comparison.

No you misunderstood. Not the overall Asian sourced Pickup segment, but what was the Holden Rodeo portion of the overall pie. The Toyota Hilux is the segment leader here.

Looks very similar to the Thailand version. Good for Holden!
