2015 Chevrolet Colorado: Top 5 Hits and Misses

We've created a short pair of lists about the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado's hits and misses. We'll know more about how the all-new midsize pickup truck performs when pushed and punished when we get more time behind the wheel and put it in a head-to-head match with its competitors.

Hits

1. Two strong engine choices
2. Best interior look in the segment
3. Fat front sway bar offers control and confidence
4. Transmission shift software is impressive; love the manual mode
5. The entire bed: rolled steel, soft-drop tailgate, 17 cargo ties, corner bumper step

Misses

1. No 3.73:1 gears for Z71 V-6 or four-cylinder
2. Really? No Sport mode for the transmission?
3. Why doesn't the V-6 engine cover have a Chevy logo on it?
4. Extended cab doors open only 90 degrees
5. Front end looks too much like the global Ford Ranger
