My first Chevy Colorado

I bought a 2018 Cajun Red Z71 to replace my (second) Nissan Frontier. Originally set out to buy a Tacoma, but after driving it and the Colorado there was no comparison. I love this truck so far. My wife complains that the driving is a little "bouncy", but I think it rides great compared to my 2015 Frontier. I would like to see better grade plastic in the interior (especially around the doors). Also, for a truck that MSRP'd at $40,400 you'd think you get some safety features like lane detection, blind spot detection, etc. And keyless start. The problem when you're shopping is that you can get a loaded Silverado for about the same price as the Colorado. But, as others have said, I needed a truck that would fit in my garage.

It is the perfect sized truck for a short person!

This truck was the perfect size for a short person but has the towing capacity of a bigger truck to tow my horse trailer. For the price it is a great value and it drives like an suv!

Feels like a full sized truck

Was a little afraid this wouldn?t pull my trailers but it actually pulls better than my Silverado and gets better mileage. I would recommend this to anyone looking at half ton trucks.

First mid sized pickup

This truck is perfect for a daily driver or going down backroads, it?s a good size with the 5.5inch BDS lift and 35?s. Great truck overall

great for those wanting but not needing a truck

Meets all my expectations except 3. Vents are not as directional as they could be. Would prefer a multi functional (6) way power seat for greater comfort. Having an on board gps with ability to link to phone and separate from on star would be preferred.

Great truck, best bang for the buck

This truck met all my needs and I found a great deal. Only negatives are no garage door opener button and the front air spoiler might hang too low but no problems yet.

So far has been a great truck!

The truck has met all of our families needs so far. We love it. Our family of four fits comfortably in it. Drives smoothly down the highway. And the greatest part, the fuel mileage is awesome!
