    Beware of light as they are the utmost of light when it comes to build quality/sturdiness. No one around here buys them, they're kinda like Astro vans, they may have quit making them and I wouldn't know. Not a good thing to hear from a dealer employee.

    I had to drive a rental 5 cylinder Colorado for a couple months after my old Silverado got wrecked. I hated that thing. The body panels looked and felt really tinny too, like they would crumple from rubbing your hand across it. Silverado or Tahoe or bust

    Back in 2008 I bought a 2009 for my Daughter and she drove it for 20,000 miles before I gave her my 2010 Black Crew Cab for graduation in May.

    It was only the 5 cylinder motor, but it never gave us any issues and seemed to be an okay truck.

    I had a i5 crew cab a few years ago and it was pretty quick. I like the truck just don't think I can give up mine for it.

    The hard part will be giving up your truck.
