YES! We'll have to wait another month but i've been tracking this one as a previous 1st gen and now 2nd gen Colorado owner.

Ummmm....Will there be a 2dr version? And will there be a V-6 avalible? or are we just getting a "H.O." 4cyl"?.

If not..no interest for me.

You might want to move on then. No 2dr. No v6 or diesel. Only crew cab short bed. I am guessing varying outputs/tunes on the 2.7 depending on trim.

I actually like the V6, except, and it's a big one, the transmission tuning is a joke. I know it's all about efficiency and MPG but you really have to keep your foot in it more than you'd expect to get a response. I'm even considering a tune once my powertrain warranty is up.

No way we get the HO in all trims though. It’s GM. Still will be stout and a great choice for this truck.

Why would they keep the old 2.7 around? Makes no sense. But then again, this is GM, they are still building the 6 speed and have an 8 and a 10.

Instead of the old 2.7, perhaps the pushrod 4.3 would be a better fit.

I bet the only difference will be the tune. Not internals. Hope that means GM will offer a factory warrantied tune for customers.

Right i’m saying they’ll probably build the “gen 2” engine and vary output via tune.

I’m trying to be optimistic!
