On Sunday, at Trois-Rivieres, they fell behind, 4-0, on the Lions’ first four shots of the game, but rallied to pull out a, 5-4, overtime victory. Patrick Grasso’s heroics, a pair of goals with less than two minutes to […]

Value trucks these days are few and far between. A $40K base price vehicle in general is not one that is seen as often on the roads anymore, but for the compact truck category, it’s all the norm. To commemorate the 250-year anniversary of America, Chevrolet takes their compact Colorado pickup with a base price of just over $40K, and slams a Stars and Steel Special Edition package to it adding even more value then the TrailBoss.
