2016 Chevy Colorado 2.8L diesel

Not open for further replies.
Production started in September, and last I heard they should be arriving any day now.

I want the GMC pretty badly.
 
The 3.0L V6 VM Motori in the Ram 1500 would be great in the Colorado.

The 5.0L V8 Cummins in the Nissan Titan would be great in the Ram 1500 (for which it was originally designed).

How about a game of musical engines?
 
I wonder what the difference in MPGs would be between the 3.0 and the 5.0 engines in the same vehicle. The power difference s quite a bit.

$4k more than a gasser V6.
 
After buying an early Ram 2500 pickup with the new 6.7L Cummins, I don't think I'll be volunteering to be a guinea pig for any new diesel technology in the future.

Sadly I have to say this, lol but that 2.8L caught my eye. My 2002 Tacoma has been a fun ride and still is but for family is not very good being a extended cab. Brought it new with 8 miles and now 178K is now broken in. I wish I bought the double cab back then.

This 2.8L has been around for about 10 years in other countries. My only concern is the DEF setup. Maybe by now the grimlins have been worked out.
