      Me personally, I’d just say go with what suits your need for the truck best. I choose mine because it was a good combination of decent gas mileage and still able to tow and haul things when I need to do it and all.

      @coltonwood9846 halogens are complete trash. As someone who has them I can testify to this. My wife's car has led and her visibility is hands down better in every way possible. If a car or truck still comes with halogens it's definitely a cheap move on the automaker part when it seems like most vehicles now come standard with LED headlights.

    The cool part about this Colorado and some of the lesser engine tune options. Is that it seems like Chevy is offering the high output option for the Trailboss and Z71 options. The best part is that it will be covered under Chevys warranty program. It's not going to add as much power as a aftermarket tune but extra tq is never a bad thing in a truck.

    Thank you Joe and Lori for taking us on the journey with you. Wow what a truck!

The Nitro Yellow reminds me of the Tiger Eye Yellow on an Acura model you reviewed a while back - love the color. I agree with you on the zonks regarding the antennae and especially the lack of physical buttons for the lighting (wtf were they thinking..) All in all this seems like a great truck and not a compromise between the full size models. Also agree the Colorado badging could have been black. Looking forward to your review of the ZR2!

It’s a great truck, love it, but after watching this video it’s got me thinking of downgrading to the Z71 because it seems like you get more bang for your buck in terms efficiency and equipment in the Colorado then I get in my current truck.

Maybe this wasn’t the case for them back in the 1st gens which ran from 05-11 I believe but my 05 GMC Canyon is equipped with a sunroof which was a $1000cad option back then if anyone was at all curious lol. Just seems a little strange cause it’s far from the first time. Not sure why they removed them in the 2nd gen but glad to see their return

    The truck looks great and seems like a nice option for a midsize. The truck you drove with the options is about 49k. Will people even be able to buy these without a stupid markup?

    I think that just like you can order features controlled by those switches, you should be able to order the truck without Auto Start-stop, and forget that switch.. Second to that if you must have the switch then when you turn it off it stays off until you depress the switch to turn it on.

    2023 Toyota Tacoma is the best truck period. Its basically old school and does not have engine destroying issues like the Chevy trucks have. GM has been going through engines like a hot knife through butter. I am an old GM fanboy too, but GM has not made a decent vehicle since 2005 IMO:P Features are nice, but reliability is King! I can tell you now without hesitation I would not touch a GM, Ford, or Chrysler product in this day and time.

    Great looking truck, nice interior, sounds like revving power drill 👎 and you can feel the turbo lag when he accelerated. Probably a great truck and for most people the engine set up is fine, but for me to go from a full size to mid, that ain’t going to cut it. But I'm pretty sure I'm not the consumer being targeted.

      Dude what’s with the reliability issues? Can you prove that reliability is a problem rather just stating it? Like actual numbers that prove that Chevys are just constantly breaking down in record numbers? Currently have a 13’ Silverado running 175k miles. Not a single problem. Really depends how you maintain your vehicle. Tired of reading these comments. ALL manufacturers have their recalls/defects from whence they produce a new vehicle and fixes issues as times go on. Not a single company is perfect.
