Hey, the balt may be sold and with buying a house, i kinda need a truck. Im looking at an 06 colorado extreme extended cab. Anyone know if these are any good? It has the inline 5 with 220 hp. I love the looks of it. Has 69k and hes asking $12900 for it but know i can get it for less.

 

they re pretty good vehicles, ya need to find one with the 5.3 v8 in it, their badass.

 

timing chains stretch, and intake valve seats leak.

Exhaust manifolds crack tstats go bad

 

Just make sure it has the updated head or youve got a warranty

 

Pictures?

 

They are alright- I've never been a fan of smaller trucks; I don't like the way they drive. That being said to put some perspective on that, we had an 07 at my dealership for that price and I think a bit fewer kms. Was a manual though.

 

^this,
same or better gas mileage then the 6 cylinder, but more power, tq and performance mods

 

meh, I dont think they are very well put together.

If you had the money, I would buy a nice car or something fun to drive or modify etc. then buy a cheap older truck.

I personally like the looks and surprising reliability and power from a 87-91 lifted f150.

the inline 6's are damn near bulletproof and can pull trailers like a ****.
