The midsize trucks will never get a the LT1 with the full 455HP.....I really feel strongly about this. I don't think they will get a V8 period...there is no use for one, now that the V6 is so potent, and there is the diesel for that extra towing power. If you NEED big V8 for towing, you need a full size truck. That only leave the people wanting a sports truck with a V8, and that market is nearly non-existent. Now, if that does happen and they decide to bring back some kind of SS version, or an Xtreme, then MAYBE we'll get a V8, but still doubtful.

An Xtreme Colorado or Canyon with the LT1 would be extremely tempting to me to sell off my Camaro and my current Colorado for it lol. But that said, it would have to be a crew cab, and possibly even 4x4 to be feasible for me. No sport Colorado with the LT1 is getting 4x4.
