Option 2 for Nevada. And my Colorado rhymes with Nevada, I end it with "uh".

An interesting tidbit:
Up until a few years ago, I always pronounced Colorado "kah-loh-rae-doh", as I figured it was pronounced the same as "El Dorado", which I've always pronounced like that (using "rae" instead of "rah"). It took a few years of living in Indiana for it to rub off, but I did catch myself saying it just the other day.
