i like inline 5's (obviously) but i heard some stuff about the colorados engine braking. i don't know the truth but they do sound nicer than most small pickups.

The 5 cylinder is weak for a 4wd quad cab but for the 2wd standard cab is got a good power to weight ratio. You can't buy a standard cab toyota, nissan, with the six cylinders just the 4 bangers so if you have the 5cyl 225hp in the standard cab 2wd is pretty brisk and probably close to a toyota six with the extended cab.

No, they don't. Everybody always complains how weak colorados are. And what is up with four tips and two pipes on an inline engine?

those I5s are nice motors and put out some good numbers.

not bad for a 5 banger!
