Buy a colorado extreme or civic si?
I'm debating on whether to purchase a chevy colorado extreme truck or a civic si... I love both vehicles but am having a hard time deciding. I'm 23 years old so i'm not sure which would be more practical for me.. I love modding my cars so either car i'm getting is going to get modded out.

You could probably get the Extreme to the point where it's faster than the Si in a straight line, but don't expect your Extreme to handle better than the Si in the corners and twisties. I'd go for the Si as the better all around car. If you literally want to do straightline stuff all the time, go for the Extreme.

Civic Si>any Chevy as far as im concerned. Your gonna live with it for the next few years so its all up to you. Btw this is a Honda Civic forum and I know you know that but 99.99999% of the members here are gonna tell you the same thing.

Obviously it's up to you? The Si obviously gets better milage, but the truck can haul stuff...i imagine the civic is more fun and has better reliability...

extreme is 2wd only........i use to sell for chevy....the colorado is a 5 cyl. and then theres a 4 cyl....as much as i gotta say that i support domestics, but own a honda, i feel the colorado is not reliable like the civic. I admit they look sweet but talk about cheap interior!
colorado extreme 220 hp overpriced imo shity gas mileage looks hot shitty warranty loses resale value quick cheaper insurance its a chevy after working at chevy, the only truck i would buy or suggest is a silverado, most reliable and they really do a good job with them. the colorado is not a concern for chevy, cuz they dont sell like the silverados Civic SI 197 hp insurance may be a lil higher looks hotter keeps resale value better than colorado way better interior its a HONDA better gas mileage decent warranty Def faster it's up to u, but i would never buy another chevy, thats what my experince at the dealership taught me |

From: http://www.internetautoguide.com/rev...006/index.html
...the five-cylinder engine with 2WD and manual transmission earns an EPA rating of 19/25 mpg (or 18/23 mpg with automatic)... and I guess less in 4WD. With gas at $3.00 a gallon, I know I was torn between a Civic and an H3... |
