2010 Chevrolet Colorado Overview

Price Range: $16,985 to $28,915

Your Price: Ask Us

Colorado is a frontier state, settled by people who knew how to work hard and live on what the land provided. The 2010 Chevrolet Colorado is the truck for a modern-day frontiersman, a hard worker on a budget, living within his means.

Under the hood of the 2010 Chevrolet Colorado is a 185-horsepower, 2.9-liter inline-four, a 242-horsepower, 3.7-liter inline-five or the new 300-horsepower, 5.3-liter V-8. These engines are mated to a four-speed automatic or a five-speed manual transmission. The Colorado’s powertrains deliver 14-18 mpg in the city and 19-24 on the highway, which bests competitors like the Dodge Dakota, and is competitive with the Ford Ranger and Toyota Tacoma – especially with the bigger engine options. The Colorado’s payload exceeds 1,400 pounds with the proper configuration, and it can tow up to 6,000 pounds with the V-8. The V-8 towing is competitive with some of the lower-end full-size pickups, and for significantly less money.

Three cab sizes, two bed lengths, and plenty of trim options let you build your 2010 Chevrolet Colorado to your taste. A base model two-door work truck features premium cloth seating for up to three, cruise control, air conditioning and a leather-wrapped steering wheel, plus an optional locking rear differential, CD player and XM Satellite Radio. The VL-model Crew Cab opens up two-row seating for up to six, including some of the best leg room in the class, plus remote power door locks, XM Satellite Radio, OnStar satellite communications and a CD player with MP3 playback capability. The LT model includes an optional power glass sunroof and power driver and front passenger seats with heating.

For 2010, Chevrolet enhanced safety on the Colorado by making two-row head curtain side airbags standard across the model range. This, in addition to a strong truck frame and dual front airbags, makes the Colorado a great safety pick. The Crew Cab received Five-Star frontal crash ratings, while the two models with smaller cabs received Four-Star ratings; no side impact tests were completed. Traction and stability control systems, along with four-wheel antilock brakes enhance the safe maneuverability of this strong work truck.

With options to enhance towing to full-size pickup truck levels while seating up to six, the 2010 Chevrolet Colorado is a value that is tough to beat.

Secret 1
Consumer Incentives

 

Zero percent financing, employee discount, cash back, out-the-door price tags...

Most dealers work hard to offer the public competitive prices. These incentives can grab your attention, but they can also obscure the actual terms you're getting on your purchase.

How can you fully understand incentives to get the lowest possible price on your car?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

 

 

Secret 2
Finance & Insurance

 

Most state franchise laws prohibit manufacturers from selling cars directly to the public, so the dealer will be your middleman. But in terms of financing and insurance, you can choose a bank or the dealer directly.

How can you determine what's in your best interest?

Get our free quote, and we'll tell you the secret.

Secret 5
Dealer Holdback

 

The car manufacturer holds back a fraction of the price of all vehicles the dealership sells. Then, it returns the money to the dealership, usually on a quarterly basis.

Dealer holdback began its life as a safety net that ensured the manufacturers would have a security deposit of sorts if a dealership missed payments, and the dealerships would have money on hand to cover overhead costs when the holdback was returned.

How can you take advantage of dealer holdbacks to get the bottom line price?

Secret 6
Dealer Incentives

 

Unlike consumer incentives, dealer incentives are factory-to-dealer incentives that reduce the dealer's true cost to buy the vehicle from the factory to below invoice.

Manufacturers offer these incentives on a regional basis to generate sales on specific models. These incentives are sometimes referred to as "spiffs," and they can touch off competition among dealers to move slower-selling stock.

For instance, a dealer incentive may kick in when a certain sales target is reached, with each subsequent sale resulting in a higher factory-to-dealer rebate. How can you benefit from that?

Secret 3
Additional Costs

 

Destination charges, taxes, license and title fees, advertising fees... When going to a dealership, you must ask for an explanation of any fee you don't understand. But you need to choose your battles wisely. Your local car dealer may have taken a loss or slim profit along the way, and your fighting over something like a doc fee when the deal is nearly wrapped up may be counterproductive.

In any case, there are many fees and charges in the sale process: some inevitable, others questionable. How do you tell them apart?

Secret 4
Trade-in Value

 

If you currently own a car, it probably represents profit. The question is, whose profit will it be?

With few exceptions, you'll get the most money for your used car by selling it privately. That's because dealers pay wholesale prices — not retail prices — for used cars, and they sell them at retail.

Your current car's value can be used to lower the price on your new car. However, most people underestimate their used car's value when going to a dealership. How can you maximize your value?
