Wow, you just can't stand to be wrong.... In my first post, I used the phrase "real world pricing". I've done a lot of shopping in the last few months, and both of the trucks are in consideration. And, in real world pricing, until recently there were many Ecodiesels available in Tradesman trim for well under $35K. The Colorado diesel is relatively new, and not available in a Tradesman-comparable trim and therefore one cannot be had for under $40K. I know what the MSRPs are, but again I was referring to REAL WORLD PRICING!

And you should have posted everything I said instead of just the first part. I stated "The Colorado diesel isn't "virtually the same price". The Colorado diesel is about $8,000-$9,000 cheaper for a trim level with simalar content."

Notice the "trim level with simalar content" in my statement. Does a Tradesman compare and have simalar content as a Colorado LT. No, a Tradesman is just a bare bones truck. In order for you to get the same content as what is in a Colorado LT then you would have to step up to a Ram Big Horn (aka Lone Star in Texas). In that case, the Ram is $8,000- $9,0000 more.

You also must not be looking too hard because Diamond Chevrolet around up by your neck of the woods has a new Colorado LT diesel 4x4 for under 40k on their website.
