Laser-Etched 1776 USA Flag — Exclusive to Stars & Steel

The Colorado Stars & Steel includes the Midnight Edition sail panel laser-etched with the 1776 USA Flag 2026 — a detail found on no other vehicle in the collection and no other Colorado trim. Every angle tells the story of American heritage. It's not a decal. It's not a badge. It's precision-etched directly into the sail panel.

Introduction

Built for This Moment

The 2026 Colorado Stars & Steel Special Edition (RPO: USA) is built exclusively on the Trail Boss 4WD Crew Cab Short Box (14E43). It starts with the TurboMax engine — 310 hp and 430 lb-ft of torque — and adds the complete Midnight Edition package on top: 20" Black aluminum wheels, 275/60R20 all-terrain tires, a 40" off-road roof light bar, and a bed-mounted sport bar.

The defining feature of the Stars & Steel Colorado is its Midnight Edition sail panel, laser-etched with the 1776 USA Flag and 2026. This detail is exclusive to the Stars & Steel edition — no other Colorado configuration receives it. Paired with the 250th Tonal Satin Black or Silver USA stripe graphics (matched to your exterior color), this is the most visually patriotic truck in the collection.

The package goes deep on off-road readiness as well. The Skid Plate Package (PCQ) adds front and mid skid plates for underbody protection, Red Recovery Hooks (ULK) signal real trail intent, and the Rocker Panel Protector (S6L) guards the lower body from trail damage.

Inside, the Trail Boss Convenience Package II (PCW) is fully loaded: 8-way power driver seat, driver power lumbar, remote start, wireless charging, heated front seats, heated steering wheel, and a 4-spoke wrapped steering wheel with Evotex seat trim. The Technology Package (CWM) adds Adaptive Cruise Control, Rear Pedestrian Alert, and HD Surround Vision.

The spray-on Chevytec bedliner (CGN) protects the bed, the Premier Soft Roll-Up Truck Bed Cover by RealTruck Advantage (VPB) keeps cargo secure and aerodynamic, and All-weather Floor Liners (RIA) with the Chevrolet logo protect the cabin from trail conditions.

A Chevrolet Performance Black Exhaust Tip (VTA) finishes the exterior with a premium touch. Every element of this build was chosen to create the most complete, most patriotic Colorado Trail Boss ever offered — in honor of America's 250th anniversary.
