    '11 Suzuki SX4 AWD

    I always enjoy seeing people go off road with vehicles that most people don't take off road. It looks like you have had some fun in your little Suzuki.

    TRD Pro

    I like them. I like the colour. I like the Toyota on the grille. I like how the Tundra looks without all the chrome. I like the lift. I hope GM offers something similar for the Canyon and Sierra.

    Much needed mid sized alternative, Colorado and Canyon

    In order to get the seat off the floor, you need to make the cab taller. The point of this truck is to be smaller than the full size trucks, and that includes width, length, and height.

    Much needed mid sized alternative, Colorado and Canyon

    I will likely buy one of these as my next truck. I'm not in a rush to replace my 2008 Canyon though.

    Brake question

    Tektro IO brakes are not very impressive. I don't mean to sound like a snob, but I think the best option is to replace the brakes. If you want to stay with mechanical brakes, Avid BB7 are top notch. Also, at 200LB, riding long downhills, I'd bump up to 7" rotors.

    new Chevy Colorado

    The fact that the Canyon is being released at a later date makes me think that SOMETHING might be different other than sheet metal and badges. Maybe a longer box on the extended cab (using the crew cab / long box frame)? Pure speculation on my part. It just seems suspicious to me. The...

    Creating new bicycle trails... help!

    This is certainly a job for a group, not an individual, IMO. What organizations are in place that would be interested in moving such a project forward?

    How are you carrying your boats?

    Pickup truck Still lots of room in the bed for weekend trips. The Kayak actually can be used as a cargo management tool. I can pack my tent, mat, and all kinds of other stuff in the kayak, then roll the tonneau cover over it.

    new Chevy Colorado

    I'm excited for the launch. I really hope this truck is successful for GM. The price point will be a key factor in its success, so I hope a well equipped model does not get too pricey. I prefer the size of the current Colorado, but I expect much more refinement from the new model. It...
