But just like all new designs, it will have its bugs and quirks, so get the warranty.

hope that helps

I would definitely check out the titan with a Cummins, the look pretty nice. I love the 1/2 ton and midsize diesel market that’s coming out.

Based on this topic i started looking at the Diesel Canyon & Colorado trucks. Personally i'm not about to pay more for a new truck, either mid or full size than my house cost. Now that that's out of the way. 1 yr old / used under 50K miles seem to be running in the $15-21K range, with remaining warranty available.

I own a Colorado with the duramax. It is great. I tow my sxs with it, don't notice it at all. Runs great and looks good also. I kept my F250 for the camper, so the difference is noticeable between the 2. For around town, it's great.

And I would still like a rust free late 1970's F150/F100 with a 4BT engine and a NV4500 transmission. [Flower]

That's exactly what we did with the diesel Cruze. $30k when new...$14k for a 1.5 to 2 year old car with <25k miles and over a year's worth of bumper-to-bumper. Good way to go.

I have a 2018 Canyon and a 2014 Tacoma both are the 4 door 4x4. I like both trucks if toyota would ever add a diesel to the line up I might get another toyota because I think the canyon is better around town and I average 28 MPG and the taco gets about 18. I tow a travel trailer to south park with the taco and it gets about 9 mpg. I haven't towed with the canyon yet but it does have the tow package so it is a matter of time and I will let you know how it does.

^^^^^^^^
That's good stuff. Looking forward to hearing about your towing mileage.

The rest of the world gets to buy a Toyota Tacoma with a diesel. It's called a HiLux and is probably the most prolific small pickup in the world today. 22 city, 27 highway, 3500 lbs towing. Just another thing our government doesn't want us to have.

If they came out with the AEV Colorado as an option I’d consider getting one.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...dde624fa1a.jpg

If you buy a Colorado, PUT A GIANT TRANSMISSION COOLER ON IT. Always a weak weak point for GM transmissions. I also added a deep ventilated transmission fluid pan. Pan comes with a drain plug. Don't buy the owners manual saying the fluid is good @ 100,000 change interval. Change it at 30,000...

PS I have a Colorado.
