2005 Chevrolet Colorado LS Z71 4x4 extended cab review from North America
"Awesome mid sized truck with full sized attitude"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with the truck sometimes the CD player rejects a CD, but I put it back in and it plays fine.
General comments?
Great truck, best vehicle I have ever owned, the 220 HP 5 cylinder has great spunk. I have hauled 1,800 pounds and cruised down the highway at 70 MPH no problem. The Z71 package is great and the push button 4WD system works awesome and makes using 4WD a breeze. It is very roomy for a mid-sized truck and the ride is very very good compared to the s-10. I love the 5 speed transmission and it helps gas mileage too I get 23 on my normal running around I haven't had it on a trip yet, but plan to soon. It is also great on the snowy roads and I've done minor off roading in it too with no problem.
