Official pricing on new Colorado and Canyon.

[Topkicker]

Should have posted this Monday. Sorry for the delay. The MSRP on the Colorado starts at $20,100. The Canyon's base MSRP is $20,995. A Colorado Crew Cab 4x4 w Z-71 package includes the Direct Injection V-6 and auto tranny comes in at $34,095 MSRP. The Canyon Crew 4x4 SLT MSRP's at $36,950. Some cool options is the MyLink w the new 4G LTE connectivity w built in wi-fi hot spot, forward collision alert, and Lane departure warning just to name a few. Considering a middle of the road Tacoma (cloth seats, auto, 4x4) is in the 35K range, the pricing is spot on for the competition and your getting a much more up to date pickup.

The diesel will be in showrooms hopefully next summer. It will be a 16 model yr. No word on price yet.

Thanks Topkicker, any hint on the fuel economy for the V6? Seems the silverado is claiming 22 hwy for a 4x4, need to understand if the parkability tradeoff is gonna be worth it.

I can't throw any #'s out there but will say this. There was a reason for choosing the 3.6L over the base 1/2 ton 4.3L motor... MPG's

Two engine choices for now. 2.5l I-4 w 200HP and 191 ft/lbs of torque is standard. The optional 3.6L V-6 is 305HP and 269 ft/lbs. Max tow rating will be close to 7000 lbs. Units will be reaching some dealers in September.

As much as I am a GM driver . I'm sorta kicking around the idea of the Ram 1/2 ton 4x4 quad cab SLT with the Italian VM diesel.
Diesel and gasoline are within 1-2 cents of each other here so a diesel may break even by the time warrenty runs out.
$5.36 US per US here for 87 gasoline or clear highway diesel.

Wow. 87 octane is $3.25 here today and diesel is $3.99 and $3.89 if you hunt long and hard. That's 20% more fore diesel at the cheapest price.

I'm considering the Ram as well, but the V6 4x4 gets 23 on the highway, the diesel gets 27 I think, and I know its 4k more. Compare that to the colorado, hoping a V6 4x4 will get at least 27, then the smaller(easier parking, more garage space) Gm looks appealing. My 2010 4x4 silverado LTZ has been flawless, tires, oil, brakes for 88k miles, but if staying full size, I have to drive the Ram to decide. i haven't yet driven a new 2014 Silverado, not liking the front end or column shifter.

Diesel here in Wentzville is $3.48 to $3.55 a gallon... Never understood why gas and diesel was so high in NE Indiana compared to everywhere else I've lived. All I can figure is they are raping all the local farmers. Out of all the different states I've lived in working for GM, Indiana takes 1st prize for the highest state taxes and highest fuel prices.
