Good fuel mileage,comfortable ride,nicely appointed interior,good looks.
The Colorado is very easy to drive in daily traffic and makes a good useful travel vehicle. Even though it has the short box I have been able to take along all the stuff we want when exploring either on a long trip or weekend adventure. The biggest plus is the gas mileage it provides, it beats the prior truck by 3 MPG! Plus the Chevy MyLink is an easy to use system once you learn how to interface with it's features.
I am really enjoying my truck. I bought it for my active lifestyle of hiking, kayaking, camping, etc I was going to get the orange truck from a local dealer, but it was the 1/2 doors in the back, and I have a German Shepard that I take with me, and I could not imagine how he would fit in it. I went to Carmax to see what they would give me for my Equinox, and it was actually $2000 more than the dealership, so I looked to see what they had in stock at Carmax, and actually found a 4 door, but in a brick red. While I miss the orange, I love this truck. It actually came with all the extras that the dealer did not offer, except at a premium price. I got the bug shield, tinted windows, bed liner and running boards.
