the GMT 355 is an Issuzu design, so they have always had it. It was designed in the time when GM thought that narrow and long were the way to go. Colorado lacks behind everything, and is the only car I can 100% avoid from GM. I am not a fan of it from every aspect of the truck. Same goes for its sister trucks.
