I got this picture off GMtrucks.com. They said it was taken in a GM garage on one of their proving grounds and is VERY unauthorized! Notice the location of the Turn signal/parking lights and the shape of the headlights. Looks more like an AV front end than a Silverado. Also the use of Grey cladding. Hmm. Enjoy! ?:B:

I'm leaning more torwards the chevy trailblazer on this one. I am basing this on the height compared to the bed height on the truck in the background. It looks like the front is a little too short (bumper to windshield) to be a full sized truck, too.

I like the look, though. Nice wheel well flares.
 
It sure looks like the artists drwing of the 2004 Colorado I've seen on the GM site.
 
I think it is the Colorado. The bowtie is smaller than those on any of the full size trucks. Also, I noticed on the one in the background has a sliding rear window. They don't have those on any of the newer full size trucks. Plus, isn't the size of this supposed to be bigger than the S-10? That may explain the larger appearance.
 
I'm leaning towards the Colorado. Notice the hood prop rod, the current S-trucks still use them. It looks similar to the current ZR-2 package.

BTW anybody else notice the headlights are under the turn signals? Guess we don't have a bad design after all... For that matter they might be the same parts as ours. That would explain why they look so big on the front of a truck that is smaller in size than ours.

I think some of you misunderstood my original post. This IS the Colorado which is the S-10 replacement. It is an unauthorized picture. The new Colorado will be based on the Trailblazer platform making it about the size of a Durango rather than the S-10/Ranger size. About the front end, I was saying it looks more like an AV than the Silverado front, not that it was supposed to be either one of those trucks. :B:
