Chevrolet Colorado Chassis Cab Debuts

by Derek Kreindler

Published: March 4th, 2015

For those who must have a chassis cab in something smaller than a full-size truck, Chevrolet’s got you covered.

Available in two-wheel drive V6 format, the Colorado chassis cab can be ordered by checking the box for the ZW9 package. At around $300 less than the equivalent truck with a bed, the chassis cab gets you comes with a set of temporary taillights mounted to the frame ends, a full-size spare, a Z82 trailer package and a limited-slip differential. Payload is set at 2,000 lbs.

Why, when you have fully enclosed Transit Connect and somesuch. This is an ISIS special - easy for mounting machine guns and prisoner cages. Plus secure RPG storage in the back of the cab. Except that ISIS uses Japanese trucks.

  Stumpaster - there has been some ISIS publicity because they have been using USA HD pickups. Someone has been buying them legally and shipping them to the Middle East where ISIS is using them. A Plumbers truck with his company name still on the door has caused a lot of controversy. http://overpassesforamerica.com/?p=3016

  @Lou_BC That-is-hilarious. Thanks for the link. If someone could get the VIN of this truck, you could probably piece together who bought it at auction and shipped it. I'd be curious to know if it was a shell company or simply a incredulous exporter.

  @Lou_BC I figured most of them were shipped courtesy of the Army...We outfitted the Iraqi police agencies with a ton of super duty Fords. They probably left the keys in when they dropped their guns and ran off.

  28-Cars-Later - I felt sorry for the guy who used to own the truck. He got all sorts of threats and hate mail due to it. People are too stupid to figure out that the guy had nothing to do with it ending up overseas.

  @Lou_BC How hard is it to peel the lettering off a truck when you trade it? I don't want my name, logo or even my phone # on the side once whothehellknows is driving it. It can only end badly.

  @mkirk Not the US Army,Someone has bought these as a bulk purchase from a used car dealer and shipped them to Turkey, from there to Syria . Lot cheaper than buying a new L70 Toyota

This sentence is in need of an editor "At around $300 less than the equivalent truck with a bed, the chassis cab gets you comes with a set of temporary taillights mounted to the frame ends, a full-size spare, a Z82 trailer package and a limited-slip differential. Payload is set at 2,000 lbs." The specific part I'm talking about is "the chassis cab gets you comes with a set" huh? I think you need to delete 'comes with'

Rrp138519787 If Jeep wanted to re-introduce the Wagoneer name, they just should have named the Grand Cherokee L the Wagoneer instead, and done a little bit more styling differentiation. They could have done a super deluxe version as the Grand Wagoneer. But all Wagoneers would have been the three row version as the primary product differentiation. And would cause less confusion for consumers overall.
