Hi All,I got a '05 Colorado Z71 4X4 w/3500 5cyl & 4 speed auto, it has 7400 miles on it.I just brought it to the dealer with this problem.I live on a hill, and when I came home from work Friday, and went to back up the hill to my driveway, the truck "stuttered" (the best way I can describe it), like I bad gas but only in reverse! (starving for fuel?) I tried it over the weekend, and when it is cold, I can "leave a patch" after driving a while, and tried, no patch but it stuttered!The dealer told me "that the way they are! It is stated in your manual!" I asked him how come only happens when it is hot! he said I tried a new one, and it did the exact thing!I was wondering if anyone else has had this happen?ThanksFrank SRaleigh NC

long.

If you buy a honda you better replace it often because they are a SOB to work on and expensive to fit. I have several Toyotas go well past

200K miles with no problems at all though.

We're all real happy for you. Don't worry about us, well get along fine with out Fords and Chevy's, many of which run past 250K on the original engine and transmission. The worse cars any of my relatives have had have been Toyotas and datsuns.
