9th Place: Chevrolet Colorado
|
The Colorado is not
only a mediocre midsize crew-cab pickup truck, but also unsuitable for
carrying six safety-belted passengers. For
obvious reasons, it drives like a truck; it rides stiffly and handles more
clumsily than most of the others here, and is noisy and slow without a fuel
savings; the interior is of poor quality even for its class, and the seats
are low and poorly shaped. Furthermore, the cramped rear seat makes even
holding three occupants uncomfortable, much less the fourth, fifth, and
sixth. The center-rear position is virtually unusable for adults, and the
center-front position is virtually unusable even for children. The Colorado
offers quite a bit of cargo room, but in its uncovered pickup bed. Inside,
the rear seat flips up in one piece to accommodate some cargo behind the
front, but there is no interior space behind it when it is in use.
The Colorado is a
decent work truck in base form, but it fails as any sort of on-road
passenger-hauler.
