  2005 Chevy Colorado 4x4 Z71Crew Cab - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By steppen_out - October 1 - 4:59 am

  Love this truck. It is fun to drive, has great power and it makes a great tow!! It is easy to hitch and unhitch behind our RV better than the Saturn that we use to tow. Love the ride. It rides more like a car than a truck. Love the heated leather seats with lumbar support.

  I like it that its big enough to haul something, yet small. I owned an S-10, and this is by far more comfortable and more room. It looks great and sporty if I say so myself. People stop me at red lights and comment on the color "Sunburst ORANGE", even the older people. I love this truck.

  Dont read the Professionals - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By Nolan - September 15 - 11:35 am

  Dont read the professional reviewers articles about this truck. They said the power of the 5cyl was only adequate. So on the test drive I gave it a little extra gas. It squealed the rear tires out of the dealership! I takes off faster than my old F150 with a V8. Tons of room inside make you feel like you are in a much bigger truck. The Z71 suspension rides great. Its not harsh at all. After more than 15 years of Fords I have switched.

  Rippen Fun - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By Mike - September 13 - 9:17 pm

  The 3500 5cyl. Vortec engine in my extended cab kept right up on a Camaro SS. This truck has very great power and unreal gas mileage to go with it. Only two things I dont absolutly love about the truck is no reclining seats and wheels come too small stock. Overall you cant beat the price. Its the best deal on a midsize truck and it will smoke any other midsize truck. You cant go wrong with this one.

  Z71 Crew Cab 2 WD - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By drsherw - September 8 - 10:00 am

  Have had it for about two months and absolutely love it. Its a car, but its a truck too. I had a Dodge Ram but the gas mileage on this truck is so much better. It is not as big as a Ram, so I can get in and out of places much easier. The center of gravity makes it easy to maneuver. I am anxious to see how it performs in cold weather.

  Love my truck - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By Chris - September 3 - 12:47 am

  I bought my Colorado when the S-10 that I was driving died, and it was a very good decision I must say. I was looking into other light duty trucks, but I am glad that I chose the Colorado. It gets better gas mileage than any of the other trucks I was looking at, and right now thats pretty important. What I was suprised about was that for being only a 5 cylinder truck, it has more power than I expected it to.

  Silver Bullet - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By S W T - September 2 - 4:37 pm

  This truck is a huge improvement over my 95 S-10. Much larger, taller, tighter, more powerful. The 5-cyl, 3500 motor is responsive. Not race like performance (it is a truck), but quick when needed. The transmission does tend to search for the right gear too much. The truck is extremely quiet, has a solid but comfortable ride, and has adequate gas milage for a mid size pickup. Making the Z-71 suspension available in a 2WD is a good move by Chevrolet. The package makes the truck look much better without the expense of 4WD on a vehicle that will not be taken off road.

  Great Truck - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
  By Brian Ludwig - September 1 - 8:25 pm

  My wife and I have owned our Colorado for just over a year now. She uses it to travel for work and as our grocery getter. So far the truck has only given us one problem and that is with the sterio speakers. We keep the oil changed and the tires balanced and rotated, the alignment gets checked every 3 to 4 months, and is only slightly out in toe as expected. Other than that, basic maintainance, and the truck is awesome. I would recomend this truck to anyone wanting a clear view of the road and who doesnt tow heavy loads, especially if you have kids or pets. We just wish it got a little better milage (Best 22 on highway, 19 in town). Thank you Chevrolet.

  When the Colorado came out, I had a ZR2 S10 I thought I would never part with. After driving and looking the Colorado over I bought one. Good gas mileage, smooth ride, and when you want to get up and go, it takes off smooth and fast. I am impressed with it. No trouble with it. I have had it 6 months got the Z-71 4x4 try one out.
