Maybe he doesn't want another Mustang.



I KBB'd that truck and just went with the standard options and it came up to be worth $20,055 in my area, so their price isn't too far off. If it is really what you want and it is within your budget, try to talk them down a little on the price. If you can't talk them down, look elsewhere.

I'd just like to add that I'm not a fan of those wheels.

For between 19-22K you could find a 07 Chevy Trailblazer SS with fairly low miles. 390hp.

nevermind I am not going to buy this colorado cuz other guy told me They are solid trucks.
Only minorly frequent problems we see with them is in high mileage Colorado/Canyon's is the exhaust cam actuator goes bad. (BTW I'm a tech for a Chevy dealer) Also on these, the front brakes last 60k+ miles, depending on how you drive, and the rears about 40-50k.

Are you high? Of Course he wants another Mustang. He just doesent realize it. That is why we are here to make suggestions of Mach1's and Cobras.



That aside, if you want that truck you should really try to get them down at most to the 17's

Bahahahaha, he's been driving fords for way to long. He's used to being on the edge of his seat cause his cars on the brink of falling apart, and he thinks he is gonna miss that feeling.

lol.

Thing is with Colorado's they suck. My parents have a 2006 Colorado and I can't even start listing all of the problems it's had. Mostly brake and electrical problems but yeah...they're terrible.
