Rocky Mountains States-based online publication, The Fast Lane Truck, has chosen the Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 as its top pick for two out of five of its Gold Hitch Awards.  In fact, the Colorado ZR2 won every category it could. The ZR2 earned the Gold Hitch Truck of the Year award as well as the Best Off-Road Truck award.

 

Writing the summary for the awards, Andre Smirnov said, "Good ground clearance, approach angle, front and rear lockers, and the Goodyear Duratrac tires carried the Colorado ZR2 to the top of the mountain. The truck’s midsize dimensions allowed us to choose just the right line over the large rocks. When the dust settled, the ZR2 did not get stuck and navigated the trail with more ease than the other competitors." Smirnov also pointed to the ZR2's livability as a daily driver.

 

TFLTruck prides itself on its difficult mountain course. The publication's Cliffhanger 2.0 course includes sections with cool names like Truth or Dare and Razor's Bend. These folks have a true passion for their truck testing and the makeup of their overall winners list shows they don't lean just one way when it comes to brands.

 

TRFTrucks' 2018 GOLD HITCH AWARD WINNERS ARE:
Best Towing SUV – 2018 Ford Expedition
Best Towing Heavy-duty pickup truck – 2018 Ford F-250 Super Duty
Best Off-Road truck – 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2
2018 Gold Hitch Truck of the Year – 2018 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2
2018 Gold Hitch SUV of the Year – 2018 Ford Expedition

Love the ZR2. Starting to see dealers here offer more substantial discounts on them so maybe by next year when it is time to ditch this Jeep I might be able to afford one.
