What's the deal with the x-runner? I saw one the other day and have heard they handle very good so what's the story behind them?

The truck was a medium blue and looked pretty good IMHO. :)

loooks like a better starting point than the colorado

Pulls skidpad numbers in the 350z range....has the big v6 and 6 sp stick. TRD makes some bolt on pieces for it (like a supercharger). Its a sweet truck, sorry bowtie brigade, but the colorado is waaaaaaay outclassed on this one.

Not hard to do, the Colorado is junk IMO.

See I dont think the Colorado is junk...had it been introduced 5 years ago it would be a class leader, but the real problem is that it can't touch anything in its class. Okay its better than a Ranger, but aside from its cheap price (post rebate/discounts) how can Chevy put this thing out in the market and claim it can compete with a Dakota, Tacoma, or Frontier? Its laughable and its a shame since the small truck segment is gonna be pushed to the forefront as gas prices increase.

As a truck it can't tow or haul very much, and it's barely big enough to sit two people across, much less three. In an attempt to do both things, it doesn't haul either people or stuff around very well. Because of these reasons, I see it as a failure...but I am always looking at the function of something, not if it's "cute" or whatever other reasons people have for buying something.

My friend had three Rangers before he got his 4.8L RCSB, and they were great trucks....the Colorado would have to be really good to outshine them.

I have yet to see one, I know I want a peace of one :drive:

yes they do handle as good as they say :D and ghostcustoms to bad your over there in Cali or else i would be up for it

Do you have the six speed and I want a picture of your axle/centering bar :offtopic:

I saw one the other day it was also blue just looked like another small pickup with some dressy items. Now Ill have to go pick on one :nod:

well with everything you have in your sig it won't be a problem outrunning one but im not sure by how much your running a 8.8 or something like that. When I had just got it I took it the the 1/8 and ran a 9.9 with no traction through 1st gear not I know i could do alot better. :D

a guy in my natty guard unit has one. it isn't a bad looking truck. i'm just waiting for him to rev up at me. of course i aint expecting it to do much but still, it aint something i would shoo people from buying.

The X-Runner only comes in 6 speed.

Pretty nice truck. I was looking at them before I got my FX4. But I needed an auto since I'd be doing a lot of driving/towing my trailer. Just more practical.
