Every time I start looking at new utes or weighing up different work vehicle options, I look back at this beast and think… why on earth did they stop making them? 😅
I bought this Colorado brand new, completely stock as they came, and it’s been with me through everything. From my apprenticeship days right through to building La Motta Group into what it is today.
It’s hauled tools, trailers, fencing materials and everything else I’ve thrown at it over the years, and it’s never missed a beat. There are a lot of memories tied up in this ute and I reckon that’s why it’s so hard to replace.
Surely I can’t be the only one who thinks the Colorado/Rodeo was one of the best work utes ever made?
Who else is still driving one? Or if you’ve moved on, what are you driving now and why? 👇
