Does anyone tow with a Chevy Colorado?
Hi. I am thinking of buying a Chevy Colorado v-6 to tow a 20 foot travel RV. Was hoping someone has towed with a Colorado and would share their experience towing with the Chevy Colorado. Thanks.

In my family, Ford Explorer V6 (2005 truck-based) towed a 21-ft Hybrid Trailer (hard roof and sides, foldout fabric both ends) pretty well. Probably about 5000 pounds, since it was about 3500 empty. Wouldn't want to tow much more. Truck's tow rating was higher than that, around 6500 if I remember.
Keep in mind that a TT doesn't involve just weight. Frontal area figures into how hard it is to pull at highway speed.
