Thinking about a 2006 Colorado Extended Cab, but concerned about the comments on Consumer Reports and Edmunds that it is one of the worst trucks in its class. One of the worst warranties also. Dodge, Toyota and Nissan have better warranties on the power train.
Also, when I test drove it I could always feel this quivering in the ride. The sales guy said the tires develop a "flat spot" from sitting too long which I think is BS. In reading the road test on Consumer Reports, they reported the same thing. What causes this quivering?
The towing capability seems to be lower than the Nissan or Toyota which I can't figure out. I read a review that said the I5 really struggled to pull a 4,000 lb towing weight.
It also got banged on the plastic interior, but it did not seem that bad to me in my 10 minute test drive.
So what are your real life experiences with the truck? Please try to be objective, even though you own one.
