I have owned pretty much all kinds of cars except a mini van and a truck. I always wanted to own a pick up truck. Just for utility and carrying my friends/family members. I am aware of the gas and I can live with that. I need to experience owning and using a truck.
Anyway, I started my research.
I would love a Tacoma but damn they are pricey and are not really comfortable. I have sat in first gen (2007-2012) GMC Canyon and Chevy Colorado and felt very comfortable. Yes, they are gutless compared to F150 but for my needs they are just perfect. They have vortec 2.9L 4 cylinder or 3.5L inline 5. Don't know much about their reliability but I see huge aftermarket support. I need 4 doors to carry my people. Only problem with 4 door canyon/colorado is a short box of 5'. So a bed extender is a must for hauling my motorcycle.
I looked into first gen rangers and mazda b series but damn even I don't fit in the back seat. And I am a small skinny guy. What were they thinking?!
Let me know your thoughts.
