Ah- gang..... The Colorado replaced the long running Chevy S-10.
Honestly I see extremely few import pickup trucks.
I drove a 2005 Chevy Colorado until it almost got me killed in an accident last July when the brakes went out. I had all kinds of things break in that truck by 50,000 miles. Tons of warnings on my dashboard that the dealership claimed they could not fix! I would not advise ANYONE to ever buy a Colorado, and I am a CHEVY LOVER!! It's a bad truck, period! Also MY mileage on the 4x4 model was EPA 20 highway, but I got more like 17 because the 4 cylinder engine was over worked a little, even with the 5 speed shift.
I still like Chevys and GM cars. WHY? Because the 1999 S-ten was going strong at 105,000 miles when I sold it, and many other cars I had were GM and did NOT have the problems that their Colorado pickup did. That truck almost got me killed!
