I didn't think what you have was possible, but it might be the best compromise for me. Do you have the 175hp 4cyl?
They put the 175 hp 2.8L in Colorados and Canyons from (I think) 2004 through about 2006 or 2007. After that, the base engine is a 185 hp 2.9L 4 cylinder. You might check out the 06 Canyon Modding thread to find how I get that mileage.

These trucks have to be driven slow to get good mileage. MPG drops fast over 55 MPH.
