For better or worse I still want a pickup.
Only rarely offroad, but planning on 4wd for the few times I might need it.
Not a fan of the trend towards making trucks bigger through trim inflation. Liked the older F150, but the current ones seem large in all the ways that aren’t useful. Same with the Tacoma.
Chevy Colorado seems like the right size, at least in pictures. Guess the Ford Ranger is about the same size.
Will not buy a 4 door truck.
Won’t be a daily driver, will be used for getting stuff home from the hardware store, moving crap to and from storage, moving tree parts for woodworking.
I have owned a Ford Pinto and a Ford Explorer in the past, no brand loyalty.
I’ve owned a couple Toyota and Honda sedans, good products, but the Tacoma became so popular years ago that I wonder if Toy is coasting with it.
Ridgeline is probably close to what I “need” but only comes as 4 door and I dislike the shape of the front, want something more truck and less minivan.
Daily driver is a BMW 750, so I don’t need a “go fast” truck, but want at least 6cyl turbo. Diesel on the chevy has a big premium, is it worth it?
Happy to buy new or used, but don’t think used has a meaningful discount.
Prefer manual transmission, but have given up on that.
Not a current Jeep.
Probably go do some test driving next week, bit do the above random thoughts bring anything to mind?
