Great truck
Have 3K on the truck so far and absolutely love it and have had zero problems. I am 6'2 and have no problem fitting in the truck unlike in the Tacoma and Frontier that I tested. I took off the silly air dam that took away ground clearance and put on a leveling kit. So far I've loved every aspect of the truck, especially the overall size which has been perfect for around town. The 4x4 system works great and gets you through any kind of terrain. Technology wise the truck hits the spot especially with Apple CarPlay and 4G LTE. You don't need to bother getting navigation or anything else if you have an iPhone (Android Auto coming soon as well). The only gripe I have is that the Colorado does not get the same soft touch w/ stitching interior as the GMC Canyon. All in all it's a fantastic looking and performing midsize truck.

Thought I was buying the best mid-size pick-up...
The hype does not justify the cost. It isn't worth waiting on a list to pay over MSRP. The front seat bottom cushion is so short it hits you mid-leg and I am only 5'9". Instrumentation... You can barely see the driver's cluster in bright sunlight even at full brightness adjustment. And the fuel gauge/radiator cluster is nearly impossible to see ever, even at night still vaguely visible. So if you run out of gas, you won't know until the engine stops. The windshield wiper feature for a spray and wipe only wipes one time after it sprays (pull back on lever to activate, one quick spray and one swipe...leaving washer fluid running down windshield and you have to push lever down again to get it to finish the job...how distracting is that when driving and trying to remove road grime? The sun visors are too short, and don't help at all when the sun is coming at you from the top left angle of windshield unless you invert the visor and then you hit your face on it. The glove box doesn't lock...enough said, this was a standard of any vehicle...ever! Gas Mileage, average 15-18 combined, nothing like Chevy states it will do. Cannot get ANY support from Chevrolet Customer Assistance/MyLink about Infotainment system, just get answers like " I'm not sure, hey wait, the guy I need to ask is just walking by, let me call you back..." And never called me back, more than once same response. Dealership same way, no return call so I guess once the deal is done, they wash their hands of you. The only good things are the Bose sound quality, not great but better than stock radio. And the safety features like lane departure warning and front collision warning system. Back-up camera image quality is washed-out almost impossible to see anything behind you even in shade with no sunlight hitting it directly, just bad equipment. And I bought American because of the lousy service from foreign import dealerships. I hope you read all of this review, since it may really help you not make the wrong choice. This truck looks great inside and out, but there are major flaws. Hope Chevy puts a "flash update" out for the poor rear view camera quality and hires some people that can actually give tech support for things nobody understands, including dealership, AND Chevrolet Customer Service support. On the hole it isn't what it seems. Chevy knows it, that's why they hype up this truck and keep pricing so high. Oh and look under driver's seat and see the rust already starting on the metal parts there. Was this because of the bad water issue in Detroit, that caused a ton of rust issues, yet did Chevy put those parts in anyway?? Lastly, the a/c has a mind of it's own, even when Auto Climate feature is not engaged, the a/c still runs in auto, meaning, the cold air stops being cold and you have to constantly adjust the digital readout dial to lower temp to get cool again, and air vents have very limited air flow adjustment, either you the driver freeze and nobody in back seat gets air, or you the driver bake to give backseat cool air. Oh, and also the accelerator pedal is so close to the transmission hump it can get dangerous if you wear boots, or work boots or just athletic shoes, boy was that a mistake! Plastic interior seems cheap and once the glitter faded from buying a new truck, it left me very dissatisfied.

Best ride I have ever owned
This truck is very roomy and comfortable,even with 2 Adults and three adolescents.The gas millage is good even on short trips as well as long ones.Driving it is always enjoyable and body style draws a lot of attention from other folk.The vehicle is used family trips as well as off road travels and suits me fine.
