2015 Chevrolet Colorado - 2015 Chevrolet Colorado LT - Review
The drive is smooth and relentless. I love everything about this small truck. It's basically an SUV with a bed on the back. I have the four-door model. It's very comfortable for the vast majority of people. I had a friend who was 6'5 and was very comfortable riding in it. The steering and breaking are very great. It drives on center like the day I first bought it, and I am not the original owner of the vehicle. I wanted a small truck. I wanted an American truck, and Chevrolet has better trucks and prices than its rival Ford. If you're looking for reliability, class, sport looks, great interior technology, and a relatively good sound system, then I personally recommend this truck. Of course, if you're just looking for a truck for work, I would recommend a bigger engine as well as a long... (more)

Of course, if you're just looking for a truck for work, I would recommend a bigger engine as well as a long bed. Because the bed of this truck standard size is only 5'2 in length and about four feet in width.
Buying this with my mother, who is a senior citizen, and watching her put hard work into getting into the truck, and then seeing her smile when she loves how it drives.

I saved more money monthly on insurance and finance options than I would have compared to buying the Silverado 1500. It has great sound quality and an excellent display screen. Great capacity interior and exterior (bed) for all your basic daily needs. The standard rims and body kit on the truck make this truck look beautiful inside and out. I would not change it for the world, unless it was a newer model of the same exact make, model, and trim. Out of all my American cars, this one I am pleased with the most. I have to say I have owned more than four cars in my life, and this one is second... (more)

I have to say I have owned more than four cars in my life, and this one is second to none. In my personal opinion, I feel it drives a lot easier than its competitor, Ford trucks, and even in some cases, the Silverado.
I wish to have purchased the six-cylinder rather the i-4 engine, only because of the towing capacity. I am restricted at 3,500 lbs., where as the six-cylinder with the towing package, I would have been able to tow 7,000 lbs. The price of this vehicle wasn't so expensive. I bought it used for $25,000 with 8,000 miles on it. Original MSRP price was tagged at $32,000. I just feel that the more upscale and bigger truck, the Chevrolet Silverado 1500, offers more price value for what you actually get. Bigger truck, more power in a standard six-cylinder, and of course, more room interior. It is a... (more)

2015 Chevrolet Colorado - Happy with my Colorado
Overall, I am happy with my 2015 Chevy Colorado. It rides extremely smoothly and is athletic considering that is is a truck and not a sedan. As a former sedan driver, I drive it as if it is much smaller and it handles it very well. My engine has a lot of power and I never worry about getting up to speed to get on the interstate. My particular model has a double cab and the backseat has more than enough room for passengers. Unlike some trucks, my passengers are comfortable. My fuel economy is good considering it is a truck with a bed. I average about 21 MPG, which is what the manufacturer expressed I would. The styling of the outside is very smooth, the inside is simple yet reliable, as it is the working model.
However, I did have a lot of recalls on the vehicle. I believe I took my mod... (more)

However, I did have a lot of recalls on the vehicle. I believe I took my model in for four recalls in total. Another issue I had was the plastic mudguard fell off due to highway driving, which makes me wonder about the quality. However, the pros certainly outweigh the cons and I am happy with my purchase. I would get this model again and I do recommend it. I am a current veterinary student, so the room in the cab and the truck is incredibly helpful for hauling equipment when working on large animals. I also have the towing package, so towing livestock trailers are an option.
I take this truck camping and set up a truck bed tent - there is one available for this model on the internet. I no longer have to worry about snakes/bears/coyotes.

Exterior styling, fuel economy, heating/air is the best I've ever had in a vehicle.

Too many recalls, plastic exterior details that proved to be of lower quality, no Bluetooth.
