#399 of 1033 2004 Colorado 4x4 Z71 by fenderhead1 Feb 20, 2005 (7:45 pm)
Just was informed today by my attorney that Chevy (GM) is buying back the truck under lemon law in PA.. Electrical failures, ABS speed sensor replaced & still malfunctions, transmission clunks, body squeaks, window shimmies, engine malfunction indicator coming on and off, window and door lock electrical failures, front wheel bearings replaced at 14,000 Replies to this message: panther8 (Feb 21, 2005 7:48 am) greencolorado (Jun 05, 2005 9:14 am)

Replying to: fenderhead1 (Feb 20, 2005 7:45 pm) Rumor has it that the Shreveport plant is on a two month layoff. New Model, Problems, Lawyers, Poor sales, and Layoffs. No connection I'm sure. Great Job Fenderhead1! I have a new 2005 Nissan Frontier brochure, and the Colorado ranks the lowest in every category. (HP, Torque, Room, Towing) Compared to the Taco, Dakota and even the old Ranger. The Colorado was designed by Isuzu! Yes Isuzu! The 5spds are made by Isuzu! So if your reason for buying one is buying American, think again. We all know that Isuzu's are well recognized for their small trucks. Isuzu will be selling a Coly, with a ISUZU grill. Fenderhead1 problems are not isolated, buy one if you think I'm lying.
#401 of 1033 Colorado a success? by moparbad Feb 21, 2005 (8:53 am)
The Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon, which debuted last year, could not unseat the best-selling Ford Ranger in the compact pickup segment, even though the Ranger has remained virtually the same since 2001.   Ranger sales were down so much that Ford had to close the Edison NJ plant.   Disappointing that Colorado and Canyon sales could not even beat the Ranger last year, let alone redesigned Dakota, Frontier and Tacoma this year.

Replying to: vilain (Feb 19, 2005 11:05 pm) I had my bed sprayed in - Arma coat. I've had my Canyon over a year and used it a lot. The Arma has held up very well. It also has the advantage of not reducing the bed dimensions much. I've had Arma before as well as Line-X and have been very happy. I paid ~$400 Instead of a Tonneau I went with a hard cover from Lo-rider. Its light (~75lbs for my crew cab bed) Pop a couple of cotter pins on the lift struts and some thumb screws at the front and off it comes if needed. It is also lockable. I paid ~$700 including lifts.

Replying to: ocmike3 (Feb 23, 2005 9:07 pm) Thanks for the info. Spray on is another option i was looking into. In case I end up going liner instead of spray on, would you happen to know if there's any conflict with installing both the liner and a hard cover on the bed? Thanks!

#404 of 1033 Sound? by vilain Feb 25, 2005 (5:09 pm)
I'm interested in installing an after market sound system in my '05 Colorado Crew Cab LS. I was wondering if anybody knew the exact speaker sizes that are currently sold with the truck? I believe the two front doors have 6.5's with some tweeters, but not certain about it. As to the rear passenger doors; i'm a bit on the foggy side! Also, I don't see how i'd be able to integrate a bass box/tube or other into the cabin. Can anybody help?
#405 of 1033 vilain by lngtonge18 Feb 25, 2005 (7:42 pm)
According to Crutchfield, the 05 Colorado can handle either 5 1/4", 6.5", or 6 3/4" speakers both in the front and rear. I believe the true factory size is 6.5" front and rear, but simply making new mounting holes will allow the other two sizes.   As for the bed liner, I'm not sure what kind you are going for, but the Chevy liner in my extended cab stops before the side rails of the bed, so it would not interfere at all with a hard cover.

Replying to: vilain (Feb 25, 2005 5:00 pm) It shouldn't. The Lo-Rider has a L rail set that mount to the top of the box and hangs inside less than 1/2 inch.

Replying to: vilain (Feb 19, 2005 11:05 pm) Hello, if you are going to keep the truck, I would suggest the spray in bed liner (Line X)-lifetime warranty. I own a 2004 Colorado, ex. cab, Z71 4x4 LS. Mine cost me approx. $490, including over the rails. As for a tonneau cover, I own a Fold a Cover-hard folding tonneau. I love it-it works great, it locks, and it is low profile and durable. I have an extra one- $525.00 including shipping. Thank you Replies to this message: vilain (Feb 28, 2005 6:02 pm) ocmike3 (Mar 01, 2005 8:52 pm) vilain (Mar 07, 2005 10:37 am)
#408 of 1033 Any snow plows? by michaelsz71 Feb 26, 2005 (2:39 pm)
I own a 2004 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 4x4 LS Extended cab. I am looking for a light weight, inexpensive snowplow for my truck. If I can't find any, I was possibly going to make my own. Thank you
