Would you take this or a V6 Mustang?

At least they're not comparing it to a Z/28 anymore!

Heh, I read that earlier. I just don't see a whole lot of cross shopping there. Maybe GM will produce a truck to compete with the Mustang GT next year :rolleyes: :p

this is pretty old.

Sharp truck, though I agree that a V6 Mustang shopper will not be looking at a pickup, no matter how sporty it is.

I'll take the truck over a V6 Mustang anyday.

I like the line on the bottom about the business case for a Colorado SS. I'd definetely buy one of those if it was over 300hp.

I like that truck and I like the idea of a 300 horse colorado even better. Any chance of the colorado/canyon getting a V-8?

Lets see:

A Police Tahoe Truck that GM pushed as a competitor to the Crown Victoria. The people pushing this actually believed it!

A company policy that diverted all it's resources to expanding their truck lines. Former CEO Zarella's biggest regret was that he didn't send more resources towards trucks (yes, he actually said this).

Our own Camaro representative defending SUVs to the point of saying that GM is simply producing the vehicles that people want, and indicating it's not GM's fault for starving cars in favor of trucks.

Now this.

What kills me is that they STILL can't tell the difference between a car buyer and a truck buyer. Like the Tahoe police truck, GM chooses to divert people to trucks when they (through their own stupidity) don't have a vehicle to offer the public that competes with what the competition has.

"We don't have a Mustang, but we have this Colorado". Sounds alot like that assine "We don't have the Camaro anymore, but we do have the SSR" line repeted with alarming frequency not too long ago.

I guess GM's mindset hasn't completly recovered from the truck/SUV mentality just yet. :(

300 H.P. I5 I am in! I would like mine in that Black Cherry color that was on the old Impala SS's. :bow: :bow: :bow: :cool:
