It's actually an I4, not a V4. I imagine it tows fine up to its rating. I really like the truck but I don't think it's a good value at this point. The Ram Ecodiesel is a bigger, more powerful truck, gets around the same mileage, but the kicker is actually cheaper to buy. MSRP is a little lower compared to the Ram but you can't get the diesel in a lower trim. There are not many on dealer lots so there isn't much dealing on price. I hope supply increases so one can be had for under $40K.
I understand the EcoD lacks an Exhaust Brake, but that little I4 actually has one.
Not sure how important that is for trucks with these low GCWRs, but even with my 8500# trailer I was wishing for one with my EcoBoost. And I understand the diesels in general need an EB more than a NA engine so think I would prefer the I4 Colorado.
