Looks nice, but I don't trust GM engineering. For one, the dolts put the steering wheel on the wrong side... And I'm not a mail carrier! Come on GM...

Everyone seems to hate the Ridgeline, but they're all working on their own..

It's true. I'll be curious to see if Honda actually goes ahead and redoes the Ridgeline for 2012.

Guys, this is not a Ridgeline like truck. Its body on frame like all other trucks. It will be able to haul and tow like a true mid-sizer like the Mahindra, Hilux, Triton or global Ranger.

Just looking at it now, it struck me as a Chevy Ridgeline. The doors look like they are long and open extra wide. That'll be extra annoying in narrow parking spaces.

The Honda Ridgeline is a front wheel drive unibody van with the butt shaved down into a pickup shape. The rear wheels get power only when the front loses traction. The new Colorado looks great and is a real truck. I hope they make a crew cab version. And showing a truck with right hand drive isn't a "total fail," it is simply a european concept truck. Many vehicles sold in the world are constructed in left- and right-hand drive. This Colorado would be a great truck for my wife.

FUNNY! (Also: TRUE!)

Pretty certain that part was a joke

Either way, good "reading you" DD. Been a while...
