Also one thing to consider, this truck weights more than the 2nd gen somehow.
I also read that it was with the base engine, but I want to disagree with that because I'm fairly certain the EPA numbers are supposed to be for the anticipated volume seller, which would likely be an LT with the mid-level tune.

Who knows.

What I do know is that it's really confusing in this case when you have one engine with three states of tune with one EPA MPG rating. Unless all three engines get the same mileage (doubtful), I don't know why anyone would get the base tune in that case.

The Canyon will have only one state of tune...the H.O. tune. Curious to see how it's MPG will be rated. That said...still can't make an apples to apples comparison with the Colorado because the Canyon also is lifted, widened, and has no air dam. I hope the Canyon is n par with the Colorado, but I'm afraid the EPA rating will be even less.
