Hello 06. Hey I just traded my 04 chevy colorado 4x4 Z-71 Crew cab in for my 06 HHR. At first i thought i made a mistake but ummmmm HELL no.. Unless you do alot of hauling dont bother with the colorado. I loved my colorado. All my friends were shocked i got rid of a truck.(I have always had a truck) for my every day vehicle. I have had a few diff Chevy products from a 75 vett and a 75 monte. Just keep in mind which ever you get you will like it.

I traded my 05 colorado crew cab in for the HHR. I had a 5 speed manual tranny with the 4 cyl engine. I got rid of it for a few reasons... I have a bad knee and can't drive standard anymore, the gas mileage was horrible (but you don't buy a truck if you care about gas mileage) and also, it was gutless. I could barely get the thing to hit 50 on an interstate on ramp (had an incline). The HHR i get on going about 65. Just my input. I loved my colorado but i'm loving the HHR more.

Are you going to two-tone it and put on Casinos and .... after spending (excuse me, after mommy and daddy spend) $25,000 for it? IMHO, the Colorado isn't as nice looking as the S-10 used to be. Those wheel wells stick out like a sore thumb and are ugly. It's a Dakota wannabe. As far as the Extreme is concerned, I liked the Blazer better than the S-10.

I haul very little, but if I need to haul something the seats fold down in the HHR...if I can't haul it in the HHR...do what all people who don;t own a truck...call someone who does...It's all about the HHR, just my opinion, buy wgat you like and good luck with it!!!
