Truck of the Year

NOOOOOOO Chevy Colorado won again...HOW???? How is this possible? Oh I forgot cause it wins Jd Powers most pointless category...Initial Quality. Which basically means drive it off the lot and you now have a heavily depreciated pile of scrap metal.

 

I bought MY truck of the year. I would NEVER and I mean NEVER own another GM vehicle. So as far as Iam concerned I don;t need the bragging rights. I claim them with my wallet. (As do most as Tacoma buries the Colorado in sales and would do even better if they had a third line making them

The PEOPLE have spoken with their wallets which won Truck of The Year

 

Did they compare against the TRD O/R? They don't sometimes seem to not use the Sport or Limited against the GMCs, which would give a better feel to some of the categories they often compare to.

 

Should truck of the YEAR be a year old or am i hashbrowns?

 

You know...im not sure why this is what it iz.
But i tell you what it's B.S
JD Powers

 

What year is it?

 

Fify

 

2016.5

 

I swear GM is paying off Motortrend. Too much B.S.

 

Colorado truck of the year. Psshhhh... JD Powers is biased towards "American Made"

 

The Colorado is nothing compared to my Taco ....hoo yah

 

I would never own a Colorado nor would I own the last truck to win it twice in a row, RAM

 

The Tacoma is designed in the US made in the US with US, Canadian and Mexican parts. Other than a redesign the Tacoma has for the most part just been given a while bunch of parts from different Toyota vehicles and been re-skinned. I bought Tacoma because GM makes crappy vehicles with all kinds of hidden surprises. That said I wish the Tacoma was built in Japan or Canada. It isn't and we can just keep our fingers crossed that our premium dollars bought a premium truck. I suspect they have. Time will tell.

 

The Camaro won car of the Year.

 

Anyone back this thread up with a link or we all just taking the post's word on this. Just curious is all.

 

I posted this as it was happening live on Youtube.

Colorado trumps Texas....I agree when talking about Geography not cars lol.

 

Yeah. If I had to pick from this list I probably would have gone F150 but I suppose either the colorado or canyon are a close second.

It looks like there wasn't even a Tacoma in the test.

Is that a Sienna back there?

 

There was it was even a finalist. This looks like last years fleet.

 

The third gen was truck of the year in 2005.
