Chevrolet Colorado or a Nissan Frontier (2005-2008)?

Question

Please tell me why each one is better than the other, and what accesories it has that the other one doesnt.

10 points best answer.

Answer 1

Nissan Frontier - hands down!  i have not heard anything positive about the Chevy Colorado.  The 5 cylinder engine is neither sporty nor fuel efficient.  The modifications that Nissan made for the current model makes it the best small truck on the market.

Answer 2

Power: Frontier (if V6 equipped).  But the Colorado is not underpowered, both the 4 and 5 cylinder engines have plenty of power to use if you use them as compact trucks are meant to be used.  The V6 Frontier, however, is much stronger, no doubt.

Fuel Economy: Colorado.  The newer Frontiers are much larger and heavier than the Colorado, you'll be lucky to get 16 mpg out of a V6 Frontier.

Reliablity/Build Quality:  Draw.  Nissan's quality has slipped over the past few years while GM's has risen.  Take care of either and they should last. The Colorado is the noisier than the Frontier, though.

Style/Interior/Exterior: Frontier.  Not as much cheap plastic as the Colorado, but we are talking trucks here.

Value: Colorado.  While the Froniter is larger, has more room, and more power, you're going to pay for it.  The Colorado is a good compact truck for the money.

Overall:  Slight edge to the Frontier if price is no concern.

Answer 3

Dont get the Colorado, has some issue's and is under powerd, if your just cruising around in it then great, but if you actaully want to use it as a truck, dont.

I know a couple people who have had Frontiers and been very happy with them, I dont know that much about them myself but people have spoken well about them.

Answer 4

Neither i would go with the toyota tacoma.  htey are alot more reliable than chevy or nissan for a little truck.  the toyotas get better gas mileage. try this website and search these trucks.
