I tow a 2005 Colorado.
It has 165000 miles on it and about 10000 being towed. It still works fine.
I use a Ready Brute w/Reasy Brake tow bar.
Thanks for the endorsement. I would like to see a larger picture of your (avatar)towing setup. It looks like you try to take as many toys with you as I do. I used to pull an aircraft (motor glider) on a custom trailer with a dual sport bike and a couple of mountain bikes. If there was a 1000 ft stretch of dirt road where we were going I could launch the glider and see the sights from the air. If it was too windy for the glider I would just ride the motor bike. If off road motorized use was prohibited then I could always ride the mountain bike.
Anyway we are in downsize mode now and I have to select only one motorcycle to carry, find a 4X4 that will be easy to tow and carry the bike along with a canoe on a custom built rack.
All the used Colorados that I am finding have a lot of miles on them. You have a lot on yours. I may have to get used to the idea of buying a used vehicle with a ton of miles on it but my gut tells me that the reason they are for sale is that they are all used up. Know any little old ladies that only drove their Colorado to church on Sunday and can't drive anymore? :@
