Overview
The 2005 Chevrolet Colorado is one of the larger compact pickup trucks (or one of the smaller midsize pickups) on the U.S. market. That gives it a bit of an advantage over other compacts when it comes to hauling capacity, and a bit of an advantage over other midsized models when it comes to fuel efficiency.
Hefty cargo doesn't present a problem for the '05 Chevy Colorado: Its payload is reckoned at 1,733 pounds for regular cab models. If you choose the Crew Cab or Extended Cab versions, you'll sacrifice a bit of that hauling muscle.
There are a dizzying range of trims and configurations available for the 2005 Colorado. Buyers can choose among Standard Cab, Crew Cab, and Extended Cab and have a choice of Z71, Z85, and ZQ8 trims. Add an Xtreme package and the rear-wheel drive versus 4WD dilemma, and it turns into an Abbott and Costello routine!
One place where there isn't too much choice is under the hood. The '05 Colorado is manufactured with only two engines: a base model 2.8-liter inline-4 with 175 horsepower and 185 lb.-ft. of torque, or a 3.5-liter inline-5 offering 200 horsepower and 225 lb.-ft. of torque.

I (28 yrs old) live on a farm in Sweden and I use the truck daily. My driving habits are small gravel roads and larger country roads, in some cases in poor condition, and limited city driving. The performance of the Colorado with the 3.5L engine gives the truck good acceleration and fair top speed. Passing cars is easy. My truck has ABS breaks and the truck halts on demand without problems on dry tarmac. The ABS breaks does the job on icy roads and stability is kept when breaking. When it comes to handling I would say it is fair upp to 100 km/h without any payload. Above that speed require an alert driver, unless you drive on an airstrip. The best handling is achived with 300 kg in the back. I noticed that the unused seatbelts rattles on passenger side on the low speed bumpy roads and the rear axle don't give much comfort there (emty truck, much better with load). The cab is fairly quiet and comfortable on larger roads. The sound from the tyres annoys me a bit in speeds above 90 km/h (tyres are threaded for tarmac). For offroad use, this model is ideal. Push a button for low gear and the truck stops for nothing, unless you woud get the idea to drive out in a swamp. The suspension has a great traveling distance and keeps the tyres in contact all the time. It is really extreme and I have never towed the truck. My truck is equiped with everyting but leather seats and the interior is appealing compared with Nissan, Isutzu, Mazda and Toyota trycks. The suicide doors come in handy when storing various stuff behind the driver/passenger seat. The sound system is very poor in my opinion. The stock CD-player is low quality and so are the speakers. I have to replace it all now after only 7500 km. The exterior is very appealing with sidesteps (bars), fender extenders, roll-top and a stainless steel grille guard with extra lights. The extended fenders does work and they have kept the paint intact (7500 km) on the sides of the truck. Gas mileage is very good concidering that the engine delivers 220 hp, it is a 4x4 Z71 and runs on gas. I get about 60 km on a tank of gas. Regarding maintainance, change oil, filters and sparkplugs. Thats all. The fun factor of this truck is high. It's light weight gives it good acceleration and I enjoy buring some rubber and power slides can be done in a controlled way on dry tarmac. Friends and new people I meet think that the truck looks cool and they are all impressed of acceleration (it is a truck). I would recommend anyone to buy this model if you intend to haul light weight goods/trailors or just use it for driving to work.

Sadly, I don't have my truck anymore - but I loved him!! I ordered him special from Chevy and waited impatiently FOUR MONTHS for his arrival! He was beautiful, fun to drive, and turned a LOT of heads - but he wasn't long for this world. Not my world, anyway. From January 2005 until April 2006, he'd been in the shop about 7 to 10 times (I lost count!) and I'd actually only physically drove him for 6 months. When I placed my order with Chevrolet, I ordered a sunroof. Unfortunately, they dropped the ball, BIG TIME, and didn't include drains for the water to go somewhere when it rained. The result was a leaky sunroof and an eventual lemon law buy-back from Chevy. I do stand behind my love for this truck, and am replacing it with the new V8 version in 2009/2010.

ZQ8 Sport-factory lowered suspension package makes it drive like a car rather than a truck. Respectable power for L5 auto with use of premium gas. G80 locking rear does well in snow, no need for 4x4. Shortbed has enough room to carry 4x8 sheets. Fold down rear seat convenient for shopping.
