If you need a midsize pickup truck to drive in Bryan, OH, then you have probably taken a close look at models like the Chevy Colorado and the Ford Maverick. But which one is right for you? Here is how these two trucks compare to one another.
Engine Options
The Colorado provides Defiance, OH, drivers with three engine options: a 181-horsepower 2.8-liter four-cylinder diesel engine, a 200-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder gas engine, and a 308-horsepower 3.6-liter V-6 gas engine. The Ford Maverick only provides two engine options: a 250-horsepower 2.0-liter four-cylinder gas engine and a 191-horsepower 2.5-liter four-cylinder hybrid engine. With more engine options, it is easier to find a Colorado model that suits your needs.
Towing Capacity
The Colorado boasts a maximum towing capacity of 7,700 pounds, making it an ideal vehicle for towing your favorite fishing boat or for hauling large payloads at your workplace. The Ford Maverick has a maximum towing capacity of 4,000 pounds. If you get a Colorado, you can tow twice as much as you can with a Ford Maverick.
Drivetrain
All Colorado trims have available four-wheel drive, which provides exceptional traction on tough driving surfaces in Fort Wayne, IN. Hybrid Ford Maverick models only offer front-wheel drive. If four-wheel drive is a must for you, there are no limits to the type of Colorado you can buy or lease. If you want a Ford Maverick with all-wheel drive, you have only one option.
