  • The Best Mid Size Truck On The Market - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    The LT model with the premium interior/exterior and safety packages give this truck the feel of an upscale SUV. Additionally, the gas mileage of the 2.5L engine and 6 speed automatic transmission is great ( routinely 27.5 to 30 mpg highway) for the size of this truck.

  • A BIG truck in a SMALL body....... win win - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    Firstly, do your self a favor and get the beefier V6 3.6 engine and tow package. Its only a couple hundred dollars more and it brings the truck from being a mild mannered "daily commuter" with some capability, to a truck that that will give many half-ton pickups a run for their money. There is nothing more embarrassing than when I smoke these fully loaded $35,000+ Z71 Chevy Colorados on highway with my $25,000+ work truck because I got the V6 and they dont. The extended cab versions are good for fitting extra passengers in a pinch but your friends will thank you for getting the crew cab option especially if your friends are large. This truck was engineered almost perfectly. The interior is tough and durable. There are a lot of hard plastics inside (at least in my truck) but they do not lend themselves to a cheap feeling, rather more of a durable feeling. Everything inside the truck feels hard and durable with no delicate nobs or buttons which is a huge plus for me. Everything feels sturdy as it should. The cabins interior has a water resistant quality with rubber buttons and nobs that gives one the impression that the trucks electronics would be fine even if the inside got wet. The acceleration for the truck is quite quick but the automatic transmission is a little....lazy. It doesnt seem to want to kick the tranny into high gear unless you really put you foot through it. This truck is most at home cruising on the highway and it is not interested in beating other motorists off the line; even though it certainly can. This is partially a good thing because it encourages the aggressive driver to ease up a little and saves on MPG. The trick to going fast (and then some) with this truck is to shift into manual mode and down shift. Getting in and out of traffic with this truck is a breeze. This truck can tow with the best of them but it can also (dare I say it) weave in and out of traffic in ways that larger trucks wouldnt dare. Every 3.6L Chevy Colorado truck owner knows that they are own something very special. The small attention to detail is what makes this truck an outstanding choice for mid-sized truck buyers. This truck brings legitimacy to the mid-sized truck segment and has set the bar for what a Mid sized truck means. Midsized trucks will no longer be known as trucks whose sole purpose is to haul tools and ladders,they are now a serious option for truck drivers looking to do real work. Whats great about this truck is its versatility. It can be used to tow an RV, plow snow, climb a hill, haul cement, go on a date, and race another truck all in one day! The Chevy Colorado really can do it all. This truck also gives you a great deal of confidence when you ride it and when you use it. Its hard to feel Whether you want a truck for a daily commuter or to do serous work this truck is really the best of both worlds.

  • Expensive but Worth it and has aged well - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    For those who need a pickup, the Colorado is a great compromise size wise for those who want to park it in their garage and yet still be able to haul stuff. The Z 71 option has everything but cooled front seats and garage door controls to make the option list complete. Drives easily and smoothly with v 6 option. Low 20s combined mpg with mid-to high 20s at highway speeds. Brakes solid. Interior space functional for carrying stuff inside, and back seat roomy enough for adults when needed. A bit pricey compared to full size alternatives, but delivers functionality of a full size with greater driving ease particularly in parking lot. Combination of city and highway driving produces in excess of 23 mpg. Only routine maintenance needed in 2 1/2 years and 26,000 miles of driving. Continues to impress with smoothness and ease of driving experience. Over time the satisfaction of the vehicles performance has outweighed the premium paid.

  • Great Truck.....I Hope - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    I have had my truck for 8 months now. I have 21,000 miles on it. I have not had any problems until these past couple of days. When I turn right I hear a noise under my bed I took it to a dealership Today they said it was my spare tire wasnt tightened. Got it back still making the noise. Im taking it back tomorrow to hopefully fix the noise and also I have a recall on it that is going to take 3 hours to fix. Other than that I love my truck. Im a mom with 2 little girls 5 and 6 and they love my truck too. Not alot of room in the front but alot in the back. My truck got up to 29 mpg. Average is 25mpg. I got heated seats with my truck. They suck. They dont get hot. I really have no complaints except this noise its making now. I hope they get it fixed soon.

  • Great Truck - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    I have owned this truck for a year now and am very satisfied with my purchase. The thing that impressed me the most was the smooth ride it has. As far as power it is sufficient but is no powerhouse. I have had no mechanical issues yet and have put 14,000 miles on it. I have owned two Toyota Tacomas before this and think that the Colorado compares very well to them.

  • Chevy scores a hit with the Colorado - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado
    By -

    I needed to get a WT model rather than the base model to get the rear seats that are, at best, for occasional use. I elected to get the 6-cylinder engine because I felt that the 4 would be under powered, and there was just 1 mpg difference in fuel economy between the engines. I dont regret either decision. The Colorado is a great work truck, with adequate power, and its quiet. Im looking forward to getting years of use from it. Already, in the first month, Ive hauled gravel, mulch, sand, paving stones, wood chips, and cardboard in it. I plan to use it for recreation also.
