    Default Silverado VS Colorado

    Well right i drive cobalt because i lost my S-10 last year and i Drive back and forth to school, its good on gas for that. In next month or so i am looking to buy me a truck again. i cant figure out if i should get Colorado with Z-71/or just 4x4 or Silverado 1500 thats the same. i looking to buy used. money isn't the issue to much, if the gas prices don't sky rocket to much. I am looking for truck that is between 2004 to 2006.

    also this my first post and i want to also say Hi

    well i owned a 2007 gmc canyon and now drive a 2008 silverado.... i love both, but my silverado gets much better gas mileage although the canyon was lifted.silverado has a bigger engine(new colorados available with v8 tho) and has more room and way more customizing options.

    i would think silverado and also if your looking to buy soon or in the next couple months or so it might be cheaper with all the rebates and the new models coming in and with the warranty to just get a new one i would look into that before looking used

    My son-in-law went through the same thing last year.....for the price, the Silverado was a better deal...a heck of a lot more truck fro almost the same money.

    He gets 17-20 all the time and the Colorados don't seem to get too much more if you get a decent motor.


    Silverado would be my choice hands down....more truck, more power, more towing capability, about the same cost, better resale, and on and on and on....
