the new GM colorado/canyon has no more manual tranny with the 242 hp Inline 5. :slap: They enlarged both the I4 and I5. I liked the xtreme version but now what's the point? :(

Maybe no one was buying it? Could also be that the tranny wouldn't live behind the newer engines long enough to be 'safe' under the powertrain warranty. I'm saying this knowing pretty much nothing about said tranny. Seems like it'd be fun to swap an LSx and a T56 into one, though.
