I just picked up my new '04 Colorado Z71 tonight. I am sooo happy. It drives like a dream!

Yep, new cars or trucks are great.

Check your Colorado for a water leak, mine had a major water.

Lift up the front driver's side carpet and check the floor and under padding for water. Mine had a major water leak inside the cowling between the upper & lower firewall. No sealant was applied between the welded sheets which make up the upper & lower fire wall. The water entered the cab behind the rubber padding on the firewall behind the brake pedal, and runs down behind the carpet to the floor area. It takes a long time to detect the leak, because the carpets will remain dry until the under padding is completely soaking wet and can no longer absorb the water, then it overflows to the carpets. I located the leak, the dealer was unable to locate it, or identify the problem.

Other than the water leak, I haven't had any problems with my Colorado in 8 months

Hope yours doesn't have the same leak.

I'll keep that in mind. It hasn't rained yet but I'm in England so it will soon. Thanks.

England...oh how I miss being there. Rained every other day it seemed like when I was there! You British, or a displaced American serving Uncle Sam?

Displaced American. I don't mind it.
