Looking at Canyons & Colorado Trims: Heights

The dealer who sold me my Silverado is looking at working up a deal on my Silverado as a trade in. Not really in the market, but they were offering a $11K bonus to replace my Silverado. When I asked about getting $11K for a switch to a Colorado, no dice. With $11k bonus and my trade in, I think I could get into a Colorado for not much more than tax/title/license.

In any event, my question I have is the heights of the various trims. I know the ZR2 is out, I don't want that sort of height.

Which trim levels of the 3rd Gen correspond the best to the 2nd Gen for step in heights?

I feel like the WT & LT on the Colorado should be good, but the Z71 is taller, with the Trailboss and ZR2 even taller.

On the Canyon, it looks like even the Elevation has some additional height - similar to Z71.

Any thoughts from others?

Thanks. When I looked at the Order Guide, the Z71 seemed to have a couple of inches of extra height.

I worry that the measurements are not from the same point. Hard to believe the height on the Elevation increased 9 inches. That almost sounds like a measurement without the antenna on one and with the antenna on the other. Ground clearance only increased a little over an inch.

The Order Guide suggests a height difference between the LT & Z71.

Measured at middle of drivers door to door sill
the Elevation and AT4 are the same height with in 1/2 inch as my 2017 ZR2 I believe the Trail Boss is too.
I measured them all but did not write it all down
I believe Z71 and LT same height..
