"As stated the vehicle is average. Not super on MPG (or as advertised) but does qualify well in cargo space and light hauling (Towing). Suprizing is the low RPM's at higher highway speeds... this is a manual transmission with a more than hefty to operate clutch. Affordable available Bling can be purchased and installed with ease for sprucing up the basic model. It's still New to me so time will yeild more of an opinion as to it's overall value and practability."

"I purchased this truck used in 2010 and my ONLY complaint is the legroom in the crew seat is a bit lacking in comfort for adults. Three kids ride comfortably even for long distances. Mileage is great on the 5 cyl at around 20 mpg. Pulls a trailer with ease. Very easy to handle. 4WD is very dependable,as is the entire truck for that matter. Filters are readily accessible and easy to change. VERY peppy truck. I have owned more trucks than I care to remember over the years and this one tops them all !! Buy one !! You won't be disappointed !!"

"a good looking truck with plenty of power for a 4 cylinder. Heavy suspension makes for a hard ride and it has some wind noise from the passenger side. overall for the money - a workhorse of a truck."

"My main complaint with this truck is the cheap interior and wind and road noise. I have the 2.8 model with automatic z-71 model. NO CARPET - vinyl on the floors, extreme wind noise from the passenger side and with the stiff suspension, the road noise. Also, on the drivers side rear behind the cab, it sounds as if something is loose. as far as mileage - 20 city, 25 hwy. A great looking truck, but wish i had looked around more for something a litter better."

"I have a 2005 Colorado Crew Cab, 2-wheel drive, 2.8L, Automatic. Great truck. I bought it used with 22,000 miles. It gets 20-22 mpg and will pull our tent trailer or three quads on a flat trailer quite easily. Buy one, you wont regret it!!"

"Bought one with 20,000 miles on it that was a former rental. Now over 100k miles. Most dependable car I've ever owned, nothing but routine maintenence, and that isn't much. I average 18mpg, the truck tows well, is comfortable front and back, does everything I expect it to do without complaining."

"I have had this truck for about a year and half and have loved it. I went from a full size Chevy truck to this and have never regretted it. I also looked at the Tacoma, Frontier and Dakota. In the end it came down to the cost of the truck and the value for it. The others could not even come close. I routinely use this for commuting, camping, road trips and managing some rentals I own. For me this truck is perfect. It is relatively inexpensive, fits in the garage easy, has a big enough bed to fit stuff and is thousands cheaper than the Japanese competition. It also gets great gas mileage (Consistently 18-19 city and low 22-23 on the highway). If this was ever wrecked and I had to buy another truck I would look for the same one. The comments about the interior are very valid and I think GM should do a better job on making the interior more appealing. Having said this, in the end this would increase the cost of the truck and, as mentioned, the cost was one of the main reasons I was attracted to this truck. A final note I think this truck fulfills its purpose as an economical vehicle that offers exceptional value, especially used."
