I enjoyed how casual this video was. Made me feel like Andre was my dad telling me how to set up a trailer properly without yelling at me every 5 minutes

Facts! “Shine the light here!” Lol

@timsmothers8740 Год назад

Indeed, I much prefer Tommy riding shotgun over The drunk Uncle. Great video, men the Colorado performed very well. It's too bad we didn't get The Gauntlet, perhaps when she's got a couple hundred more miles of break in time.

I think these new generation of “small” trucks will do anything 95% of truck buyers need them to do and everything in this class looks way better than any of the current full size trucks too.

@@cooverbennett4383 Mobility is also a huge plus for mid size trucks. I was driving a full size before I got a mid size, navigating narrow streets, finding parking, navigating narrow trails, navigating parking garages, all that is an absolute head ache with a bigger truck. Some people don't care about that, but I definitely do. I prefer smaller vehicles and I am willing to sacrifice mpg for that. Not to mention, full size prices are outrageous.

My 2011 Sierra has a backup camera, so when I am hooking up my trailer, I use it to line the hitch up. My father-in-law always gets out and tries to direct me, but I ignore him and use the camera. I tell him every time I am using the camera, but he insists on guiding me, so now I just act like I am listening, lol.

@garysarratt1 Год назад

We have the surround cameras, and my wife drives me crazy turning around and worrying. I tell her, “those cameras are actually showing what’s what, you can’t see what’s back there”. 🤣

I'm not a Chevy guy at all but you've got a nice truck Andre. I'd like to have one just like it. I think your MPG will only get better with more miles put on, but overall I'm highly impressed with the truck in looks & performance.

@shitloveaduck Год назад

I like Andrey’s truck! If it had cruise it would be close to perfect! 😊 The colour is not for me, but at least it’s a “colour”!! Not grey white or black. Some brands in mid to in more base modes are frustrating, no reds or blues. The 2.7 gets a better grumble with aftermarket exhaust upgrades. Depends on which you chose. It can sound good for a 4 cylinder truck due to the displacement.

@fscottgray9784 Год назад

The more I drive my Sierra with the HO 2.7 I am liking the engine and 8 speed more. I saw a increase of about 1 mpg once hit 5000 miles. I think Andre will love how smooth this engine is.

@jeffreydurham5012 Год назад

Nothing against the 2.7 but I can’t believe they put a 4 cylinder in a full size truck. How is on power? My 2017 Silverado with the 5.3 is starting to get old. Going to need to replace her someday.

@@jeffreydurham5012 Power is really good. I have a 3023 GMC with the 5.3 and the 2.7 is quicker and has more power. We tow a 9000 lb trailer with the 2.7 and it works great, better than my 5.3 except the 2.7 des not have as much engine braking on a hill.

Thank you for testing out the towing on these new Colorado's! it's great to see this engine work hard and perform beyond peoples expectations.

@johngrant723 Год назад

Andre, now that you have your 1sr tow with the Colorado how does it compare to the Ford Ranger for towing ?

@jaykanngiesser3454 Год назад

That’s a pretty stiffly sprung trailer. Not surprising you are getting feedback from it. I towed my Toyota trail truck a LOT with my last gen Colorado diesel. Have a 4” drop axle 7k trailer, and the feedback was far less than with the 14k unit I have for the larger truck. Everything needs to be properly matched particularly when towing with a small truck.

@kevinkrueger3686 Год назад

That’s a big trailer hooked up to that ZJ!

@4literfandaniel373 Год назад

I honestly think Chevy/gmc knocked it out of the park with their mid size trucks. It seems like they definitely listened to their customer, and I applaud them for that. Also, believe it or not, no cruise wouldn’t be a deal breaker for me. I don’t use it enough to really be bothered by it.

@lombasto Год назад

No cruise and no LED headlamps/taillamps is just ridiculous for the price of this truck. All truck manufacturers seem to be doing this though to push people into higher trims... I think Andre could buy a cruise control switch for the steering wheel and pop it in and have the dealer activate it. At least, that worked for me on an F-150 XL.
