2016 Chevy Colorado Midnight Edition
First up is the bad to the bone Colorado Midnight Edition. The blacked-out including the bow tie Midnight edition offers an urban tuner theme. The Midnight Edition Colorado will be built on the LT trim platform, and yes, it will be available with the torque new 2.8 Duramax Diesel. Everything on this truck is black. The 18 inch wheels, spray-on bedliner and the tonneau cover. Black Black Black.

2016 Chevy Colorado Z71 Trail Boss
The Colorado Z71 is already a tough off-road capable truck. For 2016 Chevy's Z71 Trail Boss edition adds Goodyear Wrangler DuraTec 265/65R17 all-terrain tires, bold fender flares and tubular assist steps. There is also an LED light bar, spray-on bedliner, and all-weather floor mats. The Colorado Z71 Trail Boss will be available on Z71 models with extended and crew cab bodies. Interestingly 2WD will also be available in addition to the obvious 4WD drivetrains. Yes, you can get the 2.8 Duramax. Oh, and Chevy loved the blacked out bowtie so much on the Midnight the Trail Boss gets those too.

Chevy says that both the 2016 Colorado Midnight Edition and Z71 Trail Boss will be available this fall. Which would you prefer?

Midnight edition with a 2.8dmax would be great. I like the look of the Trail Boss but hate the stupid chuck norris bar in the back. I would go trail boss but only if the rear chuck norris bar wasn't drilled into the bed. Which by the looks of it in other photo's i think it is.

The Trail Boss... yet another disappointment for potential buyers waiting for a ZR2. GM needs to realize that buyers lose interest in auto manufacturers that tease them with dream vehicles that never get made or get watered down by the time they reach the dealer's lot. They only needed to come out with a truck that attempted to represent the ZR2. The Trail Boss is a Trail Joke.

I couldn't agree with you more especially after seeing the Trail Boss. If you are going to go as far as making the Trail Boss why not just make the ZR2 or make the ZR2 a special package option on the Trail Boss. Personally I would look seriously look at purchasing a ZR2 if they came out with one.
