Nothing has gone wrong with the vehicle. Only 8000 miles on it, but so far everything seems to be real tight and see nothing starting to go.
I think the Colorado is something that Chevy has needed for years to compete with the Ford Ranger. Even though the Ford had more room than the S-10 Pickup, I would not buy the Ford as I am a genuine GM fan. I purchased the
Z-71 Quad cab and really like it. I think they could put a little more thought into the interior, seats, etc, but overall I would recommend to anyone.
For one, you shouldn't have anything wrong with it with only 8,000 miles. And Chevy HAD something to compete with the Ranger, The S-10. The Colorado is no comparance to the S-10. The S-10 blows the doors off the Colarado. And your theory bout the Ranger being larger than the S-10, I don't think so.
I drove a parts truck for Lee Auto Parts, we had S-10's and Rangers, when you're the new guy you get the Ranger because no one wanted it. I drove it for a while till I got an S-10. It felt like I was hanging out the driver window when I was driving it. It felt like a clown truck. The Ranger truly was a Little Girly Truck. When I got the S-10, compared to the Ranger, it felt like a Cadillac with all the room.
