re: Anyone drive a 2015/2016 Chevy Colorado? Reviews?

I am 110% a ford guy and it hard for me to leave my 2015 F150. You won't see me buying one for myself at this time. I bought it for my father who wanted a truck to haul little stuff around while having a smaller vehicle which is easier to drive.

My father is a gmc guy and at his age the big Sierra was a little to big for him plus he does not need a full size truck.

I shopped around and saw more Nissan frontiers packages they ranged $24k to $34k depending on options. I rented one for him and I even drove it and it was ok. I didn't like small center consol. I am use to putting my arm on the consol when I drive long distances so that frustrated me. Ride was also rough compared to other mid size trucks.

We looked at Toyota and big issue ride wasn't as good as new GMC Canyon in how Toyota doesn't package options as well as Nissan and GM. Cost was higher than I would like to pay for his truck.

We drove by a gmc dealer and saw some small canyons out front. We looked at two one was 4x4 with z type package and other 4x2 fairly decently loaded. I let dad test drive it and he could part in tighter spots than he could with GMC Sierra. I drove it and for a mid size truck I was impressed with the car like ride over tradition bumpy stiff ride. Will it last don't know. Can it tow a boat yes but I wouldn't go crazy and tow 22 ft bay boat.

Sometimes we take his truck fishing on our bi weekly trips and it tows my boat fine. It is not an f150 but it handles good for a midsize truck.
