2017 Toyota Tacoma VS Chevy Colorado

The pickup truck is an American icon. No other country relies on the pickup truck as much as America does, which is why we, as consumers, have so many options. The compact truck is not necessarily a new concept, but the Toyota Tacoma and Chevy Colorado are relatively new in relation to their respective counterparts, the Toyota Tundra and the Chevy Silverado. Like the Tundra and the Silverado, the Tacoma and the Colorado have a lot in common, but what sets them apart? 

Both the Tacoma and the Colorado are available with varying cab lengths and powertrains. They both also offer extended cab options, making both trucks highly customizable. Around the outside, the dimensions are also very similar across all body styles. But are they the same truck?
