If you’re looking for a truck to do truck things while offering you more efficiency than the larger models that we see on the road, the Colorado is the choice you’ll want to make. This truck looks and feels like a truck it offers you an excellent towing capacity, and there are several different body and engine choices you can make with this gorgeous vehicle. If there was one knock against the Colorado it would be the interior of the truck which feels like a truck and not like a comfort rider that you’ll want to drive every day.
The Chevrolet Colorado brings you the ability to tow as much as 7,000 pounds when making use of the 3.6-liter V6 engine that is impressive and ready to provide the power you want out on the road. This engine is able to give you more power than the Ridgeline and it can tow more, making it the more capable truck for the ride that you’ll have on the road. Take one of these impressive Colorado models out for a test drive to see if it can be the right pickup truck for your drive on the road.

The Honda Ridgeline

If you get behind the wheel of the new Honda Ridgeline and you feel like it drives the same way as a minivan, you’d be right. This pickup shares the same platform with the Odyssey and it is built as a FWD unibody truck that has a smooth ride comfort and the handling the doesn’t feel like a truck at all. Even though its comfortable, this truck is able to give you the ability to tow up to 5,000 pounds with the use of the 3.5-liter V6 engine under the hood providing you the power you want.

Do you want a truck that has a storage area under the floor of the bed? Are you ready to listen to music from the speakers in the bed area of your truck while you work? If either of these is true, you need to take a look at the Ridgeline. This truck also brings you the multi-opening tailgate to make it possible for you to have the access to the bed that you want so that you can get what you need. This is a truck that has the fuel efficiency you want and the capability to be an impressive ride.

The Verdict

These two trucks are so different from each other, the only reason they are in the same class is because of the size. The Chevrolet Colorado can be the work truck for the smaller jobs that you need to get done with its RWD layout, impressive truck personality, and higher towing capacity. If you only need to do occasional truck stuff, the Honda Ridgeline is the right choice for you with the ability to store stuff under the bed and enjoy a comfortable drive when you get out on the road with this impressive model.
