FANTASTIC OLDER MODEL

Since I retired, I don't use my truck as much anymore. Although it doesn't have all the amenities like power windows, disc player, etc. it has always gotten me where I needed to go. I bought it brand new and now have 76,000 original miles on it. I love it.

Happy customer.

I Love my Colorado crewman. It fits my personal and professional needs perfectly. I am looking forward to purchasing my new 2019 truck next year. My Colorado is fuel efficient and easy to handle in city traffic and open highway environments.

Durable

206000 miles an still going with few repairs. Rear brakes poor design. Parking brake will freeze in cold under 20 degrees. Doors key lock will also freeze in 20 degree weather and will not allow door to unlock. Heater fan switch resister fails every couple of years.

Chevy Colorado

My 05 Colorado is old but has served me well, has been reliable. This vehicle was touted as a economy of a 4-cylinder and the power of the six cylinder, but I have not experienced that, could have a little bit more off the get-go. Other than tile tires and oil changes, maintenance hasn't been an issue just had a new serpentine belt installed. And a few years back some power window motors replaced.

Chevy Colorado

Best vehicle I ever had. Still get 20 miles to the gallon with 170k miles. Torsion bar suspension allows for an excellent ride. It is also rated to tow it's own weight. Has enough power to accelerate into highway speed traffic. It also had a dual range transmission where you can place the transmission in drive #2 and it will start off in 2nd gear for added traction in the snow. A great vehicke

209,000 Miles and looks and runs great .. Mine is all black Z71!

Wasn't sure how I felt about an inline 5, but after 209 thousand miles I'm liking this engine a lot. Not that bad on gas might hang on to this truck as a collector's item it's 15 years old 2005 and still looks almost brand new on the exterior the seats needs a little work carpet needs replaced other than that she still looks pretty.

Best truck I ever purchased

Mid size truck is just my size, handles well, easy to parallel park hardly any repairs in 15 years of ownership. Lots of room in the back seat. Great for camping and has power on the mountain pass. Definitely a keeper!

Old, but reliable.

16 years old,5cyl, 4 wheel drive, good fuel economy. It tows boats, carries wood,, hauls garbage and debris to dumps and landfills. I will probably drive it until it drops, some rust and bad paint aside.

2005 Chevrolet Colorado extended cab.

This vehicle has good head space when entering and when seated; instruments are placed conveniently except for key location. I can't see the entry point on the steering column, so have to feel for it every every time. Handles very well on city or highway - tight and responsive. Sound system is excellent . Engine noise in the cabin is too much... However, I do want to hear the engine when it fails. Sun visors were downgraded from the S-10 which had the extension parts that would shield driver from the errant sun from the too short visor when moved to side window position. Seats are comfy for long drives aka vacation travel. Changing front and rear light bulbs requires special tools or a child's hand. The double in-console storage is excellent as are the change and cup holders.

Very nice staff, service is very fast, service is very good. Very much appreciated and highly recommended.

They’re not wasting their time so you don’t have to wait long. They make sure everything is okey, and they diagnose our car without telling what’s wrong, which is good so that we know what’s the problem.

Getting truck ready for college

Awesome job as usual, Paul. Thanks a ton!! Paul goes the extra mile( no pun intended) for his customers. His turnaround is fast. In fact it is faster than most repair shops that have multiple mechanics working.

Best small truck ever

200,000+ miles and still going strong. It's no hot rod but it'll get you where you want to go. Also very comfortable and roomy for a small truck. I love it's look and the bed is sufficient for what I need.

Good reliable truck, as long as you take care of it.

First new truck purchase in 2005. Over 166,000 miles and still runs great. Well maintained between myself and my mechanic. Very reliable truck. Have hauled cinder blocks in the back. Keep the rust in check and it will last a long time.

228,000 Miles and still runs like a top.

At 228,000 miles this truck still runs great and I have never had a major issue with it, just the usual wear and tear and maintenance. The body is still like new, the engine gets great gas mileage and performs well in city traffic.

Best chevy ive owned.

The 2005 doesnt have the traction control crap or the cam shaft tweeking crap that plagues the newer ones. I got the 2005 one and gave yes gave my 2010 colorado away. The 2005 is a far better product. That little truck is fun to drive has plenty if power gets great gas mileage and best of all no dash lights.

reliable after all these years

My 2005 extended cab vehicle has over 213,000 miles; Chevy performed a complete short block rebuild at 3,000 on their dime. That engine was good until 197,000 when I replaced the then oil guzzling 5 cy engine before it died. My replacement engine is working great. The body and interior are in great condition; I keep up with the usual wear part replacement and maintenance recommendations. This blue girl is my truck for the next 5 years at least. Always good performance and reliable. The vehicle has be run 90% of its miles on the hot roads of Florida.
