Chevy Colorado

The Chevy Colorado brings turbocharged power to its lineup in Boonton. Each Chevy Colorado trim features a turbocharged 2.7L inline-four-cylinder engine and an eight-speed automatic. But there are varying power outputs for different trims. The WT and LT have 237 horsepower and 259 lb.-ft. of torque, the Z71 and Trail Boss have 310 horsepower and 390 lb.-ft. of torque, and the top ZR2 delivers 310 horsepower and 430 lb.-ft. of torque. Light hauling needs can reach a maximum towing capacity of 7,700 lbs. with the Z71 and Trail Boss. Available off-road features include 35-inch tires and 5 Baron Steel skid plates for best-in-class underbody protection.

Toyota Tacoma

The Toyota Tacoma offers two engines for its lineup. The standard four-cylinder engine is a bit underwhelming, with 159 horsepower and 180 lb.-ft. of torque. But the peppier 3.5L V6 engine improves to 278 horsepower and 265 lb.-ft. of torque. The Tacoma TRD Pro is geared toward off-road enthusiasts, much like the Colorado ZR2. It includes factory-lifted suspension, mega shock absorbers, and available 18-inch wheels. With the four-wheel drive/V6 engine combination, the Toyota Tacoma offers up to 6,800 lbs. of towing power with 1,685 lbs. of payload capacity.

Ford Ranger

The 2023 Ford Ranger brings a standard 2.3L EcoBoost engine with 270 horsepower and 310 lb.-ft. of torque. The Ranger XLT is the model's dedicated off-road trim. It includes 8.9 inches of ground clearance, and a Terrain Management System that helps adjust to your traveling needs with the press of a button. The max towing capacity tops out at 7,500lb. but it has the best-in-class payload of 1,905 lbs.
