This truck is the perfect example of "you get what you pay for." A very low priced truck, with a very low build quality.
I was disappointed with the power of the new in line 5 cylinder engine. Chevy claims over 200 horsepower, but it felt severely underpowered, and could hardly get out of it's own way. I have a small jet boat that I like to tow to area lakes, and the Colorado had a very difficult time towing at highway speeds. The Colorado felt so underpowered, I eventually stopped using it for towing, and instead used my wife's Ford Ranger with a 4 cylinder/manual trans!
I had 12 warranty claims with this truck, and I just sold it as my warranty ran out.
You got a lemon!! Every manufacturer has them!!!
Your inline 5 has 220 HP vs 148 for the 4 banger in the ranger. no way does that compare power wise the the chevy. This tells me a lot about how credible your comment was.
Actually, he probably just wasn't used to 5 cyl. they do feel different. and for the get up and go, that's because it's a 5 cyl. it doesn't have as much torque as the 6 cyl. and such because it lost its one cyl.
Why does Chevy screw up on the good looking little trucks?
My 2005 Colorado had to have it's 3.5l vortex engine replaced at 40000 kms. Metal filings were found in the oil. The lobes on the camshaft were burnt and worn. Very troublesome. Most of the miles were very easy highway miles.
