New Chevy Colorado mega-thread

Well, I guess this means a bed rack and tube steps will be available at launch:



First look at the length of the mudflaps:



Has anyone seen a picture of a rear sliding window yet?

 

Oh well good, I love being first!

I'm trading my Tacoma for the Colorado ASAP.

 

Doesn't look like it has one for either the "access cab" or double cab.

 

roll down maybe?

 

Don't think so. Looking at the side profile, the cab slants forward below the belt line (at least on the double cab). There's nowhere for the window to go:

 

Hmm, i dunno, maybe the folks who designed it were able to figure it out? or it's just solid glass.
I'm sure more details will show eventually.

 

The global Colorado doesn't have an openable rear window. So it's possible the US version won't have it either.

That, or GM's Photoshop monkeys simply haven't gotten around to rendering a sliding window yet.

 

Damn! I actually like that, the front end would be better if it wasn't so damn huge. Its too big vertical wise.

I am not a fan of Chevrolet, mostly because it seems that every fucker my age that drives a GM truck will claim its the best and nothing can beat it. Most of the time it gets brought up how my little "jap-crap, rice-burning, baby-truck is not a real truck and makes me gay because I drive it."

 

This one not as much, but on the access cab it looks like they seriously took a bunch of design cues from the Tacoma.

 

Look at the URL >>> https://www.chevrolet.com/2015-colorado-small-truck.html

GM considers the new Colorado a small truck.

Very interesting: because of the slant on the double cab, the access cab long bed and double cab long bed use different bedside stampings:

 

I am not the biggest fan of the center console they put into the new Chevys, probably the worst looking part of the truck to me.

 

Another small deficiency: there's no driver's side A-pillar grab handle.

 

Regarding the interior, hopefully the steering wheel is not offset as is the case with last two generations of Gm full size trucks. I hate that 'feature'.

 

It's redneck ergonomics. The steering wheel is positioned so you can put your right hand on the top of the wheel, and your left arm out on the windowsill.

 

What is this high school? I hope those were not grown "men" you are talking about?

 

2014 Tacoma vs 2015 Colorado, side by side.

Mostly, I have met another chevy driver here in college that is the same way. Most people I meet like my truck though

 

I don't see a problem with that, mine is the same way. Just something to block your vision

 

This is Murica! Land of what makes one manly is their material objects

 

I'd say the Colorado looks bigger.
