Chevy’s Forgotten Street Truck Stuffed With 300 Horses Of Hummer V8 Power (And It Only Costs $10K)

Spend any time in enthusiast circles, and you’ll hear the same lament: modern trucks have grown too big, too heavy, and too complicated. Against that backdrop, a forgotten oddity from Chevrolet’s back catalog is quietly attracting a second look — the V8-powered Colorado. Built for just three model years before the nameplate went on hiatus, this compact truck packed a Hummer-sourced 5.3-liter LS V8 under its hood, making it one of the rarest factory small-block swaps ever to roll off a production line. If you’ve never heard of it, you’re not alone — and that’s exactly what makes it worth knowing about.
