Question:
Looking for a hitch and brake controller for my 25 Colorado.

Hey Andy, thanks for reaching out!
The trailer hitch I recommend for your 2025 Chevy Colorado is the Curt # C78VV, and then for a brake controller I really like the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED24FR (along with the universal wiring harness # RED69FR) because it can install virtually anywhere and the only part that is visible in your cab is the LED control knob.
You'll also want to check to see if you have wiring at your bumper, and if you don't you'll also want to install the Hopkins Wiring Kit # HM11141144.
I'm attaching an installation video of this brake controller on a 2023 Colorado for you to check out.
