Emerson Chevrolet Presents The 2017 Chevrolet Colorado Crew Cab Work Truck 4WD 3.6L V6 The Toughest Tool in Maine’s Toolbox.
There’s a reason you still see more 2017 Colorado Crew Cabs on job sites, logging roads, and boat launches than any other midsize truck in central Maine. It isn’t marketing hype. It isn’t nostalgia. It’s because this truck flat-out refuses to quit. Right now, at Emerson Chevrolet in Auburn, an elite collection of low-mileage, one-owner 2017 Colorado Crew Cab Work Truck 4WD models with the legendary 3.6L V6 has just landed—each one inspected, reconditioned, and ready to outwork, out-tow, and out-last anything else in its class.
Walk up to one of these Colorados and you’ll feel the difference immediately. The stance is pure purpose: boxed steel frame, massive 31-inch all-terrain tires on 17-inch steel wheels, corner-step rear bumper, and a bed that measures a full 5 feet long with the tailgate up—74 inches when you drop it down. Spray-in bedliner, tie-downs rated for 1,100 lbs each, and the available EZ-Lift & Lower tailgate mean you’re ready for plywood, pallets, or a cord of firewood before you even turn the key. Finished in Summit White, Red Hot, or Graphite Metallic, these trucks look like they just rolled off the GM proving grounds—because many of them spent their lives on scheduled maintenance plans and light-duty fleets.
Open the door and the Crew Cab swallows five grown adults without complaint. Full-size rear doors swing wide for easy loading of tool bags or car seats, while 41.4 inches of rear legroom keeps the crew comfortable from Auburn to Jackman and back. Durable vinyl flooring and stain-resistant cloth seats laugh at mud, sawdust, and coffee spills. The no-nonsense Work Truck interior puts everything exactly where a real driver needs it: big analog gauges, physical buttons for climate and 4WD, and a 7-inch Chevrolet MyLink touchscreen with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ so you can run navigation, stream job-site playlists, or take hands-free calls from the supplier without ever slowing down.
Under the hood lives the heart of a champion: GM’s proven 3.6L DOHC V6 with variable valve timing and direct injection pumping out 308 horsepower and 275 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a bulletproof 8-speed automatic transmission and the Autotrac® 2-speed transfer case, this powertrain delivers instant low-end grunt for pulling stumps or merging onto I-95 with a 7,000-lb trailer behind you. Switch into 4WD High on the fly, drop into 4WD Low for the muddy access road, or leave it in 2WD for maximum efficiency—the Colorado adapts faster than the weather changes in Androscoggin County.
Towing? Bring it. Properly equipped, these Colorados handle up to 7,000 lbs—enough for the bass boat, the snowmobile trailer, or the flatbed full of landscaping stone. The integrated trailer brake controller, hitch guidance with dynamic gridlines, and StabiliTrak® with Trailer Sway Control make even first-time towers look like pros. Locking rear differential, Hill Descent Control, and off-road tuned shocks turn sketchy logging trails into Sunday drives.
Every truck in this collection has passed Emerson Chevrolet’s uncompromising 172-point GM Certified inspection. We’re talking frame-up scrutiny: brakes at 70% or better, zero rust perforation, timing chain inspected, transfer case fluid fresh, and a full Maine state inspection sticker good for another year. Each Colorado receives new wiper blades, a professional detail that brings the paint back to showroom depth, and a bed detailed so clean you could eat lunch off it. We even install fresh engine air filters and top off every fluid to factory spec.
These aren’t high-mileage beaters. We hand-picked units from local municipalities, utility companies, and single-owner trades—many with under 65,000 miles and complete service histories performed right here in our GM-certified shop. You’ll find rare gems: Work Trucks with the WT Convenience Package (remote keyless entry, cruise control, rear vision camera), spray-in bedliners already installed, and even a few with the trailering package and factory tow hooks.
Why does the 2017 Colorado still dominate job sites from Lewiston to Farmington? Because it’s the only midsize truck that feels like a heavy-duty in a maneuverable package. Turn radius tighter than a full-size Silverado. Parking lot agility that slips into any spot at the Auburn Home Depot. Yet it still carries a 1,578-lb payload and tows more than most half-tons could dream of just a decade ago. Diesel who? The 3.6L V6 delivers V8 power with better throttle response and none of the complexity.
Real-world proof:
- Haul 1,200 lbs of gravel to the camp in Minot and still average 19 MPG on the highway home.
- Pull the 22-foot camper up the infamous Grafton Notch grades without breaking a sweat.
- Leave the competition stuck in the spring mud while the Colorado’s 8.1 inches of ground clearance and 4WD Low crawl right through.
At Emerson Chevrolet, we’ve been family-owned since 1969 because we sell trucks the way Maine people buy them: honest, straightforward, built to last. When you choose one of these 2017 Colorado Crew Cab Work Trucks, you get the full Emerson Advantage:

Our on-site finance team works with every major lender—plus special programs for self-employed contractors and small businesses—so you keep more cash flow in your pocket.
Right now, our lineup features hard-to-find configurations:
- Extended-range 21-gallon fuel tanks for fewer stops between jobs

- Color-matched camper shells on select units
- Units with the All-Star Edition appearance package for that clean, professional look
This is the truck that turned the midsize segment upside down in 2017 and never gave the crown back. The same year it earned Motor Trend Truck of the Year, NHTSA 5-Star safety ratings, and a reputation for going 300,000 miles with nothing more than oil changes and brakes.
