I purchased a new colorado. It was my first huge car purchase with a plan to have a huge resale value that would cover the large up front cost. This truck (mine was a z71), was horrible. I loved the interior. I loved the handling. Gas mileage was not good but to be expected. Towing was great. Unfortunately, this truck (even though GM had already "fixed" it) had a horrible rumbling transmission issue. Supposedly a fluid exchange would fix it. I know of zero times in my life when changing out fluid fixed a major issue with a lawnmower let alone a car. It, of course, didn't work. The dealership told me that the rumbling would continue for 500 more miles until all of the old fluid was gone. No way is this true. Over the winter, the entire cabin was freezing up on the inside. As far as I could tell, the dealership fixed this issue. They of course told me it was my fault. Finally, I was backing out of the driveway at 3500 miles and the breaks started squeaking.....LOUDLY. I was devastated as this was my dream car that I was looking at for over 2 years until I could afford one. It will be very difficult to even get me to ride in another chevy again.

We needed a truck for the wife who is 5.4 tall and 98pnds . She really did not want a full size truck and needed more cargo capacity then her SUV offered. I drive it time to time . I 6.0 tall and 285pnds . I find it comfortable and adequate for a mide size truck . We waited for 7 years for Ram to come back out with a mid size truck . Wife is 100% happy with her 2018 Colorado 4x4. Thank you GM.

Outstanding vehicle in ride and appearance. The Centennial blue is a nice change from the common white, gray, or black.

We have had our crew cab short bed Z71 for about a year and a half now. We absolutely love this truck. It looks amazing, runs awesome and has great features. Love the Bose system and the heated seats. The AC works almost too well...can't not freeze yourself out sometimes. Only used the 4WD once so far, but worked great. Very happy with our purchase.
