TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2021 Chevy Colorado’s many configurations give shoppers the kind of choice typically reserved for full-size trucks, but Chevy skimps on safety features.

The 2021 Jeep Gladiator, for better or worse, is a Wrangler with a bed. Nothing else will satisfy those who seek exactly that, but competitors are more comfortable and more affordable.

TCC Likes

ZR2 off-road chops
Powertrain choices
Bed step

So much personality
Top comes off
Seriously capable

TCC Dislikes

Dull interior
Few safety features
Poor crash test ratings

Expensive against rivals
Light on standard features
Rivals are more comfortable
