rmc523 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Did they quit making the Canyon/Colorado for a few years? Yes, I believe they did take a production hiatus for a year or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Yes - in between the old and new models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRM Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Interesting quick read: http://truckyeah.jalopnik.com/by-the-numbers-2015-chevy-colorado-vs-tacoma-frontier-1639032173 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardJensen Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 IIRC, they stopped Canyonado production before the banrkuptcy, as the Canyonado factory in Louisiana was included in the "Bad GM" assets, along with all those ignition modules and liability and so on and so forth. So that would mean 5 years or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpd80 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 The still don't get it, you don't need a 30 mpg Mid sized truck to clean up half ton truck ratings. Just do what's needed, lose some weight and lift all fuel economy figures.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-150 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Silverado/Sierra sales will drop regardless. I think GM brass have resigned themselves to the fact that Ram will be #2 shortly (it already is in Canada). They have given up producing a class leading truck. Better to lose those sales to yourself in a slightly different segment than to Ford or Ram. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
