Horrible placement of 4X4 knob

The knob to engage the 4X4 can't be seen while sitting in the driver seat. It is below and left of the steering wheel, you easily bump it getting in and out so you unknowingly turn your four wheel drive on. THERE IS NO INDICATOR LIGHT ANYWHERE ON THE DASH THAT TELLS YOU FOUR WHEEL DRIVE IS ENGAGED!

The only problem is that there is no drivers side hand grasp like the passenger side to help you in and out of truck, I am temporarily disabled, right leg,but when the arthritis kicks in in the leg, very painful, I turn on the seat heater and the pain goes right away, what a blessing, other than that I love this truck, is`t my second. My wife likes bellies and whistles, I have no use for them,but now, I love them. I am retired military,I would recommend this truck to all veterans!!!

confident cruising

this is my 3rd. Chevy truck. Started with an S10 quad cab when they first came out. Really liked it but the bed was too small. Then I got a Silverado extended cab with a long bed. Loved it but a little hard for me to drive in heavy traffic due to overall size. My new Chevy Colorado V4 extended is perfect in almost every way. It is just right for me for ease of handling and load capacity. The color, cobalt, is beautiful and I LOVE the styling. A bit racy and lots of attitude!!! My only wish is that: the back seat area could be better served with a bench seat that could lift up/back to flat for cargo. I don't have a dog right now but it would be tough for them to ride back there as it is. I would have to modify somehow. And the tie downs, being low, going to be hard to get to when the back is loaded. Would prefer those up a bit higher. Otherwise I ABSOLUTELY LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my truck and I FEEL so much more confident and happy on the road with it. THANK YOU for making the perfect truck for me. Us girls do like our trucks too!!

First Chevrolet that I have bought

Very good leg room and great features. I absolutely love the styling. I went truck shopping looking to purchase a Toyota Tacoma. And while the Tacoma still looks good, It couldn't be beat by this Chev once I saw it in person. The reviews rated it higher than what I would expected thus sealing the deal for me.

Transmission problems.

Bought late October and had it back in 10 days because of hard downshift at about 25 mph. Was told I didn?t drive aggressive enough. Transmission refused to shift at 1500 miles and was stuck in 4 cylinder mode. Wrecker cane got it. Four days later I was told the couldn?t find any problems. Same thing occurred at just over 2000 miles. Now in shop for third time and not yet two months old.

Smoothest truck I have owned

I have owned 7 trucks prior this and the last 5 were imports, 3 T's and 2 N's. Although very happy with all and preferred the T's, this Colorado is Awesome! Was actually planning to buy another Tacoma as they are excellent trucks, my 2002 Tundra was hands down best until this test driving the Chevy. After first drive, I had to have it. Exterior and interior are roomy. 6 way power seats on BOTH front seats. lots of storage to keep it clean. Power is huge and very quiet. Driving it is a true pleasure!

Best truck I have owned

Could not asked for a better vehicle to meet my needs. Unlike the larger trucks,Silverrado ,F150, I can park it like a car. Love my truck!

Best Truck I've Ever Owned

Really love my 2017 Colorado. I like everything about it. The Smart feature is really nice and like the package that came with this truck. I would really recommend a Chevy Colorado!
