Lol, they honestly couldnt try any harder to distinguish it from the Colorado/Canyon?
Everything down to the wheels is the same other than the grill.
Looks like they will only come in ext. cab with the I4, and crew cab with the I5

Why didn't they use the D-Max sheet metal?

D-Max

 

"Hi. I'm Joe Isuzu! Come on it now for special going out of business clearance sales!"

 

If they put out a better warantee than GM, there are people who WILL buy one, we seem to thrive on "Knock Off's" these days...

 

Wasn't there a rumor that there would be a diesel version?

That would make it worth the purchase.

 

There is a 3.0L Diesel Colorado built over in Asia

 

evok on C&G has stated that the Thia build Colorado will be getting a new diesel and that this one may be compliant with the new US diesel regulations that are coming up.

 

Dissapointed at the lack of diesel myself. I was really hoping the Isuzu version would distinuish itself by using a diesel. That would have been an industry first for a mid-sized truck and an excellent selling point. Even sadder considering Isuzu's diesel experties.

 

Why hasn't the Isuzu brand disappeared yet?

 

Theyre now shipping:

:blah:

My friend was joking how people could take advantage of that "350" badge lol.

 

Wait until somebody goes into Pep boys to order a headlight bulb.
"I need a bulb for my Isuzu i350"
"Uhm...hmm well our computer shows you can just buy the Chevrolet/GMC one, it's the same"
"No! Clean your ears it's an Isuzu! Did I say Chevy? No! I don't buy junk! now get me that part"

 

Good question... all they sell now is 2 lightly rebadged GMC models. They don't even have any of there own stuff any more. All the dealerships around me closed. Isuzu needs to die.

 

They should be making money on all those "DuraMax" Deisels they make, I'm not sure what else ther're into...

Jeep Liberty is getting a 6cyl deisel in '06 isn't it??

 

i knew a guy who came into my old store who had a (probably early 70's) volkswagon small truck w/ a deseil and he said it got 52 mpg on average...

comon GM...

 

My cousin gets 21-22mpg in his 6.5L Deisel Chevy extended cab, 4x4, stick shift truck...it's an early '90's model.
But his fuel pump went out and it cost him $1500 to replace!
