My 2005 Chevy Colorado summary and review.
The only problem with 05 Colorado I drive is that the drivers side window doesn't roll down because the motor is broken. I have just recently found out that there is a 5 cylinder engine in it instead of the 6 which is in pre-Colorado the s10. That is kind of a disappointment but it's still a nice truck and I love it.

Chevy Colorado- 2005. Holds up well
Some of the lights burn out quickly. The tail lights have had to be replaced twice in a short period of time. The fold down seats in the back have held up very well considering it's a very old vehicle. I really enjoy driving the vehicle and it rides very Smooth. The 4 wheel drive is still working perfectly

More good days than bad days.
I bought my truck used. It has 220058 miles on it. I'm having electrical issues right now. Someone tried installing aftermarket speakers and didn't know what they were doing and messed up the electrical system in the truck. It rides great and doesn't do bad on fuel mileage.

That the I5 inline motor rocks, which is why they probably stopped making it. This truck has served me faithfully over the years.
While my vehicle may not have all the shiny new bells of a new vehicle, it has all the memories of the last thirteen years that we have been together.

Needs more bugs taken out..
Within days of my warranty expiring, the chain in my transfer case broke and was not covered. It cost me approximately $3,500 to fix this. Several years ago the actuator inside the transfer case broke and was also very costly. Off and on problems after it was several years old. Have also had problems with it starting - sometimes it does, sometimes it does not. I bought my Colorado the second year they came out - apparently a lot has been corrected since then.

This Colorado's kicking the competition.
I have a 2005 Chevy colorado pickup truck. I love it! It is an extended cab, which normally would seem pretty big but, it is compact with it is body style and it is sporty. . So far, it runs really good. In character with Chevy quality. All in all, it is been a great buy. Definitely getting my money's worth.

Chevy Colorado 2005 crew cab 4x4.
When the coils go bad eventually, they keep going bad. But after putting 265000 miles on it, I'd say it's a great investment for a family convenient truck. Definitely got my use out of it without to many issues that weren't from wear and tear. Back seats not good for people with long legs though. It can be a little snug. Especially if the driver's seat is pushed back.

Chevrolet Colorado great truck that gets great mileage
The Chevy Colorado that I drive is a stick shift. I have really enjoyed driving this truck. The truck has nothing fancy. It is your basic truck. The truck has been very reliable. The truck gets excellent mileage as well.

The 5 cylinder engine gets great gas mileage along with being powerful enough to haul big loads.

The seating is nice for not being leather.
The vehicle is in good condition for the year it was manufactured. Paint is slightly chipping on the tailgate. The interior is fairly clean. Occasionally the ABS light will turn on and the brakes will lock up. Lately the engine light has been turning on but we haven't figure out if anything is wrong with it yet. Overall it's a comfortable truck to drive and gets me where I need to be.

From an owners standpoint the trucks a great truck mine has 290000 miles I've owned it since it was made the parts hold up the 4x4 is amazing not to big but not too little only bad part is engine replacement isn't cheap cause mine needs the inline 5 if I had to pay for the labor I would be getting ready to say goodbye to it soon.

Typical chevrolet refuse to fix known problems and make a sale FIX YOUR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS I also have a newer chevrolet that sadly has even more electrical issues
This truck is comfortable however if looking for good sound system keep looking, the brakes seem to have their own issues anti-lock brakes control unit is loud enough to hear in the cab then we have the dash lights going out and no gauges when that happens oh and don't forget the selector switch working not working the tail light that fell out the tailgate handle breaking I hope the four wheel drive still works when needed

The truck is a good small size. Where you can tow or carry up to 1000 lbs but not have the fuel or truck size of a Silverado.

That the ABS goes out frequently, so you gotta watch out for that when you're driving it.
I love that my truck is very basic, with crank windows and push button locks. It has a plastic bed liner, which is a lot more convenient than my old truck steel bed, and it has an extended cab that comes in handy more often than I expected. The brakes aren't great and it has a few quirks, but I'm very pleased with the old thing. (It's name is Chad.)

Little truck that's thirstier than you'd want
This year of Colorado is nice. It's still small and I would consider a more nimble so it's easier to park and drive in the city. However the gas mileage isn't as good as I was hoping. I am getting the same gas mileage as my 1999 GMC Sierra 1500 with significantly less capability's for hauling. As I see it the main advantage of a small truck is better gas mileage while still having a bed and ability to tow and haul. If it's missing the Better gas mileage I would have just got another bigger truck

How do you design something like that?
I own a Chevy Colorado Z85 LS with a 3.5L 5 cylinder engine, it gets between 20- 24 m.p.g.. My issues with the truck are, the evap canister valve goes bad about every 20,000 miles, due to the design, changing the front rotors requires you to disassemble the front hub and bearing carrier assembly, and there are no aftermarket cab corners for this vehicle.

The best small truck out there
My vehicle is a great everyday ride. It gets good gas mileage for a truck. It seats four adults comfortably and I have been told it is a nice ride. It has almost 200,000 miles on it and I have recently replaced the radiator and the truck is known for having throttle issues, which mine has. All in all though I would recommend it to anyone who wants a smaller scale truck.

Small but price is right!

Good running truck since 2005
The truck has been a good riding vehicle since I bought it in 2005. I have only really had to replace tires, battery and oil. Just kept maintenance up on it. The only complaint that I have is that the monitoring icons have always come on and they was nothing wrong. Otherwise then that I am pleased with my truck. It is getting older and will wear out I know.

Smaller truck with great dependability and little maintenance needed.
Love this truck! Have owned this truck for 3 years now and have only one problem with it. Performance I would give 5 stars. Runs like a champ. Very dependable. Smaller truck but still all the same comfort as full size. Has third door which is great when you have a lot of groceries or extra person. Can actually fit two people in back if need be. Has back seats that can pull down for seating or pull up for extra storage. Can't say enough good things about this truck. Very reliable with little maintenance. Sturdy and clean on the inside, though pretty basic truck. Bench seats in front which are super comfortable for two but not so much if you have more than two people. Good single person truck not big enough for a family. My only complaint is when you come to a stop the ac stops blowing cold. Can get hot if you live in a southern state. Overall a great truck.

It is not as big as other trucks, so it is a reasonable size.
No to many problems: heat and cold air only turn on a full blast and engine after 10 years says there is a gas leak. Mpg is pretty low, but that is to be expected with a pickup truck. It is very comfortable and the cab is spacious. It has 4 doors. The only issue is that it does not have an auxiliary jack so your phone or mp3 player cannot connect to the stereo system.

Always Ready To Get Up & Go
I'm definitely a fan. I've never been concerned that this truck isn't going to start on me or won't make it where I'm going. It can be a bit fickle in cold weather and it did throw a code once when the temperature dropped too fast overnight, and went into limp mode until the code was cleared. It's a bit heavy on fuel usage, but that's expected in a pickup. I've also changed the spark plugs myself and they're in a weird spot but easy enough to work on. All in all this is probably the most reliable, stress-free vehicle I've had.
