2008 Chevrolet Colorado Review
It’s rare to find a compact truck with the power, price, and potential of the new 2008 Chevrolet Colorado. The dimensions of this truck allow is to fit into the compact category, but give it enough capability to rival the power of the full-size trucks out there.
Under the hood, you’ll find a specially designed engine to give you power, efficiency and durability. The available Vortec 3.7L I-5 engine can generate 242 hp at 5600 rpm and 242 lb.-ft. torque at 4600 rpm. The iridium-tip spark plugs and Variable Valve Timing allow this engine to go many miles before requiring any replacements or repairs. The Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission, heavy-duty battery and more gives the 2008 Colorado more than you could’ve ever bargained for. Not to mention this compact force has roughly 4000 pounds of towing capacity.
Safety isn’t an issue either. The available frontal and head-curtain side-impact airbags help ensure passenger wellbeing, as well as the front recovery hooks, automatic locking rear differential and more!
Now for the real reason a truck is grabbing your interest; the cargo cab. The Crew Cab offers a fleetside, all-welded steel pickup box with double-wall construction; this includes four cargo tie-downs and two-tier loading for even more storage capacity. Various tie downs, cargo nets and the removable tailgate work together to maximize the carrying capacity of this exceptional machine. So go grab a 2008 Colorado Crew Cab to get the power, hauling capacity, safety and convenience you know you can rely on Chevrolet for!
