Overview & Reviews
The Chevrolet Colorado is Chevy's entry in the highly competitive compact truck segment. Like its rivals, the Colorado is closer to midsize than truly compact. Accordingly, it offers a reasonable amount of hauling capability without the added cost and bulk of a full-size pickup. As is customary in this segment, Chevrolet offers extended-cab and four-door crew-cab layouts, multiple bed lengths and available off-road preparation.
Older versions of the Chevy Colorado could be worth a look if you need a basic work truck, but their four- and five-cylinder engines are weak for this class (though you may find a few examples with a robust optional V8 engine). Colorados from 2015 and later are dramatically better, with competitive powertrains, up-to-date technology features and a spacious interior.

Colorado Z71 EXT. I5 - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By caf - February 18 - 10:00 amGM did a great job with this truck. I was a little skeptical about the 5 cylindar idea, but this truck just blew me away. It climbs hills without any hesitation, it handles very car-like and it looks tough! And Im talking about the extended cab Z71 4x4. On a bumpy road, its a bit rough, but for normal driving, it terrific.

Balanced CrewCab - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By Z71Dave - February 17 - 2:00 amGreat truck. Has a great balance between power, fuel economy, size, and style. I really like the looks inside and out. I have the victory red w/ painted fender flares. I am averaging 19MPG with 700 miles on the truck. Driving a mix between city and highway.

Tough Truck - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By Resident Dawg - February 11 - 10:00 amI bought this truck and use it for work and towing my boat. I have a 21 foot C.C. weighs about 3500 Lbs loaded full. I use to tow it with a jeep cheerokee, and MAN what a difference....I hardly feel the boat behind this truck. I got the 4wd to have added security in getting the boat out of steep slick ramps. The dealer tried to tell me all I needed was the "tracction Control System", which this truck has as well....I tested it...low tide, steep slick ramp...I needed the 4wd to get the boat out. All in all..a great truck!

This Aint Your Dads Compact! - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
By Hammerhead3812 - February 11 - 10:00 amI have the 4DR extended cab, Z71 4x4. It has plenty of leg room.This is no compact. The truck handles very well,and brakes equally as well.I also have the 3.5lt ebgine w/200 horses.After the cold intake is installed(approx.$350)The horses go up to 235-240. It gets 275-290 miles per Tank.More on road trips.That is w/the A/c running. It also has 15" rims(not bycycle tires).4 wheel drive on the fly comes in handy, especially in the desert.4drs w/no seats are nice for fishing,hunting or just keep your tools back there.It is not a fullsize bed,but then you wont have to move your friends. It still has enough room for medium size jobs.

By rebdrmr - February 11 - 10:00 amI just recently purchased the colorado and so far i have been pleased. I have the new inline 5 cylider which does have the power of the V6 well almost and good gas mileage. I would recomend this to any buyers in the market for a good mid sized truck

Chevrolet Colorado Z85 4wd, I5 - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By kdeatrick - January 5 - 2:00 amIve owned this truck almost 2 months now and have driven it 4,000 miles. I love everything about it so far. It is a great step up from my 1991 S10, and the rear seats in the ext. cab seem much safer than the 1994-2003 Ext. Cab S10s. The ride and handling are great. The I5 engine has got plenty of power and torque to get the job done. My truck has the I5 Engine, Automatic Transmission, Locking Diffential, 4wd.

Disappointment - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By Bmcmahan - December 31 - 10:00 amI bought this vehicle in April it is now June. It has been in the shop three times. (Once for Mold in the A/C, Water damage from a defective door, and had the transmission replace). I have had many Chevy Vehicles and IÂ’m beyond the point of dissatisfied with the Colorado Truck. This truck is fun to drive when it is not in the shop for repairs. Good on gas for a Truck. All in all I would be weary of buying this truck until they have a chance to work out all of the bugs.

Chevy Colorado, a decent truck - 2005 Chevrolet Colorado
By jms - December 12 - 4:26 pmAfter a bad start my Chevy Colorado has proven to be a decent truck. Getting 18 mpg. My bad start had me back at the dealer 4 times to fix a noisy dash. After switching to another dealer they found the hood was the culprit all along. My main complaint is the sound of this engine. It sounds like a Volvo or Audi. Also the gas pedal is too close to the brake pedal. I love the looks of the exterior, but the interior is very basic. It does feel kind of cheap overall. Great rebates and additional dealer discounts made me go with the Chevy instead of the new Toyota or Nissan. I do wish it was a little closer to the other midsize trucks in size, although that does make it easier to fit in the average size garage.

Sunburst Orange Crew Cab 4X4 - 2004 Chevrolet Colorado
By PFE - November 13 - 10:00 amI bought my Colorado Crew Cab with the I-5 engine and auto transmission. So far I just love this truck. Its got plenty of power, handles great, and its fun to drive. Others have knocked the interior. I have no complaints with the interior at all. Its comfortable, functional and quiet. A 100% improvement over the Jeep that I traded in. I can tow my boat and tow the Colorado behind my motor home. Chevy gets 220 HP out of a 5-cyl engine. My V- 10 Ford motor home gets 275 out of an engine twice this size. GM has a winner here. Go to your nearest Chevy dealer and buy one today. You wont be sorry.
