This is why we think this dynamic truck is a contender, whether you’re driving the kids to school, going on a road trip, or just getting around town: Room For Everyone and Everything Interior vehicle design has advanced significantly for trucks in recent years. Nowadays, many come with roomy cab layouts that provide cozy seating for both front and rear passengers. This means that everyone can travel more comfortably on lengthy trips thanks to the generous head and legroom. Furthermore, trucks usually have higher seating positions, which improves driver and passenger sightlines and provides the family with a commanding perspective of the road. Today’s trucks also give families adaptable cargo areas. For this reason, trucks are ideal for hauling groceries, recreational goods, and camping gear. This additional cargo space is helpful for active families who frequently work on home improvement projects, go on outdoor trips, or perform DIY projects. The Chevy Colorado tips the scales in both the interior and cargo departments. It offers a re-configurable bed option with a first-in-class StowFlex Tailgate. This tailgate feature gives families built-in storage to carry a wide variety of items. The compartment is 45 inches wide and 45 inches deep and is embedded in the tailgate. It is lockable and is also watertight, and has a drain. Why would you need a drain? For when you take the “tailgate” part of things literally and head to the kid's football game or the Texans or Cowboys game with your friends. You’ll also find eight standard tie-downs for keeping your equipment stable during the drive, with the ability to increase up to 17 tie-downs, which is a best-in-class option. In addition, you can set the tailgate to mid-position to help you haul longer items. Finally, the Colorado tailgate also gives you an available built-in bed power outlet and cargo bed lighting when you need to unload early or late at night. Heading inside the Colorado, you’ll find a few more conveniences for you and the family to enjoy. Beyond the room you have, you’ll also gain available Dual-Zone Automatic Climate Control, USB Charging Ports, multiple beverage holders, and storage compartments, plus an available Interior Illumination Package that sets the mood and helps everyone see a bit better. Ready For Adventure From the beginning, trucks were meant to haul things, and today’s trucks are no different. What is different is the technology that allows all drivers to feel comfortable while doing it. This technology is a game-changer if your family enjoys boating, camping, or any other hobby that involves towing trailers. It includes a camera system that gives you up to 10 views, including a hitch view for easy alignment and a bird’s eye view of the area around your Colorado and trailer. Whether you choose the rugged off-road Z71 or ZR2 edition of the Colorado or the Trail Boss trim, you can feel comfortable off-roading and hauling whatever comes along. In addition, these three options give you even more cargo amenities with the available Flex Utility Package that adds re-configurable bed rails, a bed protection mat, and a flexible off-road splash guard. The payload rating for a Colorado starts at 1,151 lbs and increases to 1,684 lbs, depending on which model you choose. Payload is the weight the truck can safely carry, including fuel, passengers, and anything in the bed. The Colorado can tow up to 7,700 lbs when properly equipped. Essentially, it is the perfect family choice when exploring the many trails at Castroville Regional Park or boating on the Medina River.

For the Chevrolet Colorado, you’ll find a variety of safety measures that help you and your family get to where you’re going with confidence and ease.

Blind Zone Steering Assist: This available feature alerts you to vehicles in your area, particularly when trying to shift from one lane to the next. It offers a gentle nudge on the steering wheel and other alerts to help you avoid a collision. Forward Collision Alert: This system works with the Automatic Emergency Braking feature to sense objects in your path and alert you to possible collisions. It also warns you when you’re too close to the vehicle in front of you. Rear Cross Traffic Braking: Think about the last time you were in a busy parking lot, trying to reverse but unsure it was safe. This system assists you in these situations, letting you know when traffic is crossing behind you so you can reverse with confidence. Lane Keep Assist With Lane Departure Warning: Accidentally swaying too far out of your lane can happen to the best of us, especially when multiple things are on your mind and going on in the truck simultaneously. This system alerts you before that happens, giving you visual and audible alerts and using a gentle nudge to the steering wheel to get you back in line. These are just a few of the features that make the Chevrolet Colorado a smart choice for families on the go. Our team can walk through each safety feature available throughout the Colorado line to ensure you get the one that gives you the most comfort and confidence during your drive.
