I say that because you should get the new model for that sort of coin, the quote does depend on how expensive your chosen canopy is.

Im always skeptical of the first year run of anything.
To often they are raced into production without enough real world testing of the 30,000 parts, and the first generation of buyers are left dealing with the issues and expense until they are ironed out and changed (hopefully for the better) in the next year.

You could easily get a Ranger for that price which is a far better ute, I wouldn't want to pay more than $35,000 for a Navara even with that gear on it.

Are the colorados any good in comparison to the ford?

Subjective question, I think it depends on what you want out of the vehicle.
Like the OP in this thread, who wants an honest strong truck, the D22 Navara is the vehicle of choice.
Its a proper 4WD with yards of aftermarket parts, basic electrics, dual batteries ex-factory for that winch etc.
Thats because its a new, old vehicle, that has been made for more than a decade.
The Ford is a bit of fruit. It has complicated electrics, and (I understand) a bit of a toy 4WD system. It has a tiny battery and the lights all turn themselves on and off at will. Plenty of them Found On Road Dead with a flat battery. But its really nice to drive, and has bluetooth for your phone.
The Colorado is the same. Engine from Fiat, transmission from GM parts bin, body from Isuzu. Get the key wet, then walk home.
Yes the 2015 Colorado has had some upgrades so it is not too far behind the Ford. The Ranger is still better over all but the Colorado is a good option now since they are well priced. Probably best to do some test driving and try them for yourself.

my brother just brought a new dx doublecab,goes well,has every thing you need including 3 years servicing,it's pretty good really,I like the new generation hilux navara triton but dont feel like spending 23000 on a ute with 250,000 km allready on the clock,quite good value. no pose factor which a lot of people probably want though

Lay off the bong ! A Mazda better than a Nissan lmfao Pre 2015 navara model with 550 nm torque - what was the ranger ? You comparing current models with 10 year old navara's. Compare apples with apples - 2015 Navara !
