I started out on a truck reluctantly and ended up liking very much. But I always thought that the only good one that interested me was F150 but its gigantic. But man this colorado just speaks to me.

Still too big I think. I think for small truck the last gen S10 was perfect. But this is a good second choice as long as I can get the quad cab and a 5 or 6 speed manual.

I find this one looks much better and the proportions are great. I guess it is big but its in a nice size so that its not a f150 but can still get shit done.

I dont understand your emotion. I mean, why not get a Amarok 4X4 TDI 6 speed like the ones we have in Mexico? (Sorry for the trolling and annoyances, I just had to. )

Cause ' Murica .

I never knew this car existed but the chevy looks better to me and the proportions of the back half is a little better.

Hahah yeah, to each their own. I like the VW more but thats just Fanboyism and the solidity sensation of the switches.

Plus we don't get it in American/Canada. No wonder the colorado hasn't been updated in forever.

Actually, I was quite fond of the last gen GMC Canyons. I don't know why but I wanted one, it looked smaller than my fathers Tacoma, and more agile somehow. I don't know, I will say it in an Oppo Confession my feelings toward it.

Plus... Chevy reliability and durability versus a cheap VW... Sort of a no brainer.

My dad really like the new Colorado. It's funny, because it's almost the same size as his truck that was considered a full size in 2004. A crew cab with the long bed in blue would be awesome.

Everything about those last gens were nice except the interior. That was a let down, but it's a truck. Plastic makes sense in them.

Its not that big. its the same size as a tacoma and that is significantly smaller than a full size from now or a decade ago. They aren't tiny, but they are far from huge.

The current Tacoma is too big...

Perfect for a weekend hauler in size (trips to the lumber yard, hardware store etc.)

I find it weirdly attractive. Also, the V8. It was available with a V8. Have I mentioned the V8? No, yeah, it had a V8.

Even the 5 cylinder was an okay motor. But the V8 was a beast. There's a couple V8s for sale around here and I want one.

The trouble with the last-gen was that it was...um...terrible.

Did you mention about the V8? Did I mention about the V8. Let me talk to your dad about that V8. What V8? That V8.

That V8 was moving 4,000lbs in crew cab form with 300hp. Not a bad combo.

All I saw from that comment was V8, 300HP, Combo. It was excellent, although a bit old.

The new one makes more than 300hp from it's V6. I think it's more like 320 or 330
