2009 Chevrolet Colorado 3LT Crew Cab Short Bed Pickup

Vehicle Description 2009 Chevrolet Colorado $28,000 "2009 Chevrolet Colorado 3LT Crew Cab Short Bed Pickup ""Ever since the S-10 was introduced in 1981, Chevrolet enthusiasts have been forced to drop their own V8s into Chevrolet's compact pickups-the bowtie division didn't see fit to offer eight pot power in its pint size trucks. Those folks were usually looking to go fast. Big power in a light truck can make for some startling acceleration times. That sort of combination finally can be had from the factory."" Car and Driver, Jan 2009 For consignment, a 2009 Chevrolet Colorado 3LT crew cab short bed pickup showing 38,281 title verified actual miles. This all stock example originally came from Arizona and satisfies the need for a compact truck with some serious power. Exterior The bright blue here is known as Aqua Blue Metallic and it makes quite the appearance in its two stage application and clean presentation. The crew cab means its four doors with the fronts being longer and in profile, the truck maintains good proportions with the short bed keeping things manageable between the long wheelbase. Up front, the split and stacked lenses were exciting and new back in '09 and the unique configuration retains its appeal nearly 20 years later. All lenses, front and back, are flush to the body and monochromatic bumper covers and side mirrors create a clean, streamlined look. 18-inch wheels carry 235/50R18 tires with a late 2021 date code and represent the only shiny metal on the side other than the door handles and V8 call out. A sliding rear window overlooks a clean bed with full liner. Imperfections include some chips, curb rash on the wheels, scuffs, scratches, chips, and some off color paint and orange peel on the lower fascia. Interior Nicely constructed door panels combine black materials and smooth surfaces and all four present in nice shape. The 3LT includes leather seats and electronic controls, here with black buckets up front and a split bench out back that doesn't forget about cupholders for rear passengers. Simple and clean is our view forward where the standard steering wheel fronts an easy gauge cluster and digital read out while the platinum colored faceplate of the center stack houses the integrated AM/FM/CD radio and A/C knobs. As a column shift truck, the center console provides storage and requisite cupholders over gray carpet protected by fitted weather mats. A gray headliner above surrounds the sunroof and has hold handles for every occupant. Drivetrain The clean environment is home to the 5.3 liter LH8 V8, fuel injected and rated at a healthy 300 horsepower. It's mated to the venerable 4L60E 4-speed automatic transmission and power is routed to the 10 bolt rear axle with 3.42 gears. Undercarriage The driveshaft and exhaust are colored by surface rust but the remainder of the underside is clean as can be with only a hint of residual oil. The single exhaust travels through original equipment and power brakes are here as front disc and rear drum. Suspension consists of coil springs in front and leaf springs in back. Drive-Ability No complaints here! Comfortable, upright interior, manageable size on the road, and plenty of power. We're amazed at how quiet this V8 is, but the large muffler is likely the reason! Runs well, tracks straight, and all functions work as they should. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. As pick up trucks have gotten bigger over the past ten or fifteen years, people often lament about the lack of mid and compact sized trucks available; something that can get the job done without the bulk of a big truck and all that comes with it. This well preserved '09 is the antidote and there's no doubt that a fine example like this will find a new home soon. So, we'll end it here so you can make the call! 1GCCS13LX98129462 1-USA G-General Motors C-Chevrolet C-4,001 To 5,000 GVWR S1-Colorado 2wd 3-4 Door Cab L-5.3 Liter LH8 V8 X-Check Digit 9-2009 8-Shreveport, LA Assy Plant 129462-Sequential Unit Number Classic Auto Mall is home to more than 1,000 classic and collectible vehicles for sale via consignment in a climate controlled 336,000-square foot showroom (that's more than 8 acres!).
