Chevy Colorado

they are ok. i like the pre-2004 s10 personally. that 4.3 liter v6 was much better than the 5 cylinder colorado/canyon, at least in terms of power. after driving the company truck for a few weeks, which was a canyon, i test drove a nissan with a 6 cylinder, supercharged i think. needless to say, i won't be buying a colorado or canyon for myself.

Yeah the 5 banger is stupid for a truck motor. Can't get out of it's own way and still sucks the gas.

 
I own a 2005 colorado and if your a big dude you wont be comfortable. Its a small truck man. you need like an avalanche or something. lol. Its great for someone my size though and I love it!....

I have an 08 Colorado regular cab with the 5cylinder. Im 6'3" and 150lbs and I have the seat scooter up 1 notch for subs and I am perfectly comfortable. Also I don't know about these guys saying they are slow but my truck will run equal to or outrun full size v8 trucks. My truck also consistently gets 20mpg in city and 26mpg on the highway.

i wouldn't say they're a dog, but it isn't anywhere near the 4.3l v6. i get 19 mpg city. it is a step down from the 1994-2003 s10/sonoma. if the colorado would get 28 mpg city, then it might be a small truck to brag about, but to lose that much pep and gain only 1 mpg in the city is not a fair trade.
