Agree. Or the steering column shifter. Not sure why they fell out of favor.

Because they were dorky... although now they would be retro-cool.

I got rid of my Colorado for two reason and that was one of them. The column would have been great. 2nd reason was the transmission hunting for gears all the time. Had to use tow/haul mode all the time.

The new one is nice, but I’ll pass on this latest generation and keep my daily driver, a 1998 Tahoe Z71 2-door. No third-row seating need here.

Positives:
Overall length: 188.0”
Engine: 5.7L V8
Fuel capacity: 30 gallons
Curb weight: 4,952 lbs. (It’s solid!)
Real tailgate, not a liftgate
Column shifter
No payments

Negatives:
184,000 miles
12-13 miles per gallon
No warranty
No Homelink, OnStar, Sirius XM, Apple CarPlay, or LED’s (On this vehicle, I’m okay w/o all this stuff)

I'm keeping my 2010 Tahoe LTZ too. Only 65k miles on it now.
