2017 Chevrolet Colorado

Special

The smooth-riding and well-equipped 2017 Chevrolet Colorado is a solid offering in the midsize truck segment. It’s not the best choice for heading off-road or for ultimate comfort, but it’s easy to drive and has plenty of towing capability.

Although full-size trucks are some of the most popular vehicles in America, trucks such as Colorado make a great case for themselves as mini-me versions of the big haulers. Available with three different engines and an array of cab and bed configurations, the 2017 Colorado is a midsize truck that can get all sorts of jobs done.

A plus for midsize trucks such as Colorado is their maneuverability. Though they may seem only marginally smaller than full-size trucks (such as Chevy’s Silverado), they’re much more nimble and versatile in the city. Plus, Colorado can tow up to 7,700 pounds — that’s more than enough for the typical trailer.
