I dunno. These vehicles are popular...among both the civilians and police.

I would be interested in a small SUV with a Diesel ((IF)) it had a fold flat rear floor like my blazer. My old blazer is long in the tooth and I have dumped more money into it then it's worth. I like the full frame and low range 4wd but the most important thing is the fold flat floor for the Collies.

Something tells me we are going to see GM build a 3 row SUV based off the Colorado canyon platform. If this is true , I am so hoping for a duramax diesel option !!! That will make me happy even though I want a suburban duramax more. Hear rumors of this more and more.

It is called the Colorado7 in Australia, Isuzu version the MUX

What is it that "tells you" this?

Yes Bedlam, you are correct :)

I said my 06 is the last GENERATION, not the last year.

06-10 is exactly what you said - 4th generation with 3 valve 4.6 available, although only about 10-15 % were made such, the rest has the problematic 4.0 v6 with 5R55.
4.6 has its share of issues as well.

I thought the 4th Gen Explorer and Sport Trac were frame based through 2010 - They had a 4.6 liter V8 available.

I want one.
My 06 Explorer is the last generation of midsize SUV frame based with v8. 4Runner went v6 route, new Explorer is a station wagon really, Acadias - same thing.

I need v8 on the frame but smaller than Tahoe.

Its coming !! I think it may be called a blazer !!
