Default LSX Swapped


Apparently, this counts as an "itty bitty burnout." I don't know, I think it's pretty good for a truck that's still being broken in.

I've always felt like a fast little truck would be a lot of fun. The Syclone is a dead model, I get that, but why couldn't Chevy just build a hopped up version of the Colorado or something. Put an SS at the end of the name or something.

Hopefully they'll consider now after seeing the response to the Cheyenne concept. That thing looks boss. The "street" truck market could use a little love.

FYI they made an LS Colorado. It had an LC9(or one of the other 5.3 motors) in it so I'd say they are on the right path with the small performance truck thing.

OP this is probably a bigger truck than you were talking about but they also made a Silverado SS that had an LS2 in it.

Never had an LS2, had an LQ9 though. The TB SS had an LS2.
