Recent 2018 Colorado Z71 V6 4wd buyer here. I love the truck overall.
The V6 engine is strong compared to the Tacoma, although the 8AT needs some calibration work due to its' propensity to up-shift too soon. Lazy acceleration unless you really get into the pedal (fuel economy). Solid feel though, nice smooth ride on most surfaces. My wife even likes to drive it. Stout 4x4 performance in both snow and sand. Infotainment system is intuitive and reliable, Apple CarPlay is there which enables Waze.
But it is lacking a few things i'd like to see in an MCE or 3rd gen. There are virtually no safety features in my 2018 (no lane assist, blind spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking, proximity sensors, etc) that you'll find elsewhere. GM also needs to get serious about interior material build quality. The brand new 2019 Silverado is getting hammered for this as well.
