2K5SS/SC?'s NEW TOY!

Well, my old 93 S-10 was getting older and slower by the day, and my buddy really wanted it for some odd reason so I sold it to him. I ran across this at the local Nissan dealership and loved it. I got to take it home this weekend for an extended test drive, and I like the truck a lot so I'm going to buy it. I gave her a quick bath and took some pics. She had got some ***** with the 5 cylinder, but the great thing is I can use my HPTuners to give her some extra grunt too! WOOT!

2004 Chevy Colorado LS with the ZQ8 package, 3.5L 5 cylinder and a 4L60E auto trans

I love the ZQ8 Colorado's... nice choice for a truck man!

Intake... exhaust... and HP tune should have her running nicely.

Thanks everyone! It handles like a tuned car, hauls & tows, and looks awsome too! The gas mileage seems pretty good so far from what I can tell. I've only had it for 24hrs or so.

Man, 2 cars AND that truck. WTF
Yeah I know, the cars are both paid off and owning a home it's almost a necessity to have a truck. The payment won't be that much since I'm getting it for like 3-4 grand below Kelly Blue Book value! The Cobalt's trans is still broke, and I'm awaiting some additional savings to repair/beef up the tranny. The Integra is awaitng a new radiator since the plastic end cap ones suck for turbo heat/increased pressure caps.

Yeah, that sign is just at a slight diagonal from my house where the truck is parked. I look at it as an extension of my driveway!

These trucks are pretty reliable from what I read, and got some decent reviews for what the truck actually is.

On the Bag and Drag deal, that is not my style bro. I'd rather keep it clean, running, and daily driveable!

does it still have a powertrain warranty? a lot of those 5 cyl colorados have problems with the head and the only fix is replacing the whole head.. if you wanti can VIS the vin and see the whole service history, if they had it serviced at a gm dealer anyways. it is a good lookin truck though!
