You should be very happy. A coworker of mine test drove a Colorado. Said it had a rather gutless five cylinder engine in it.

Just got mine not too long ago and had it lifted 3". I never realized how good owning a truck like this can be until I got one. I'm sure you'll be real happy.

Welcome! You're gonna be glad for the 4WD in Buffalo! Might wanna lift it soon to get a little more clearance for when the plows are slow getting around. I could go through about 9-10" at stock height before the skid plate started pushing snow. Lift and tires probably push that to closer to 13-14". It helped a lot this past winter when we got a foot over night and I wasn't about to shovel my driveway before my father-in-law came with a plow!

i called again today and was not too nice about it and said what can u do for me since ive been waitin almost 3 weeks?? First of all he appologised and said the truck is mine and it will be here any time now. Anyway he said they will throw on step bars ( $490 ) i think.., and will work the numbers to get a lower payment than before for the inconvience.. I guess thats good. Just mad cause i got to keep drivin this rattlin chevy. Please tell me its worth the wait!!!
