I don't need a truck, but I need a truck. Kind of like how I need a sweet little snub nose Colt revolver.
I'm trashing my Odyssey hauling the things that I do. I'd really like to be able to haul some dirt, rocks and lumber this summer without having to depend on anyone else to do it for me.
I keep finding myself perusing the marketplace for an inexpensive but bad ass little truck.
I'm only 5 ft tall so I need a truck that is small enough that I can reach the pedals but big enough I could pull a little trailer if I wanted to haul something later on. Probably a 4 or 6 cylinder so I can still afford to go out of town in it if gas prices go crazy.
I've driven a couple rangers a couple times in the past but I'm a little disappointed by how rusty some of the ones I am seeing are.
I've seen a lot of gorgeous looking little Dodge trucks that have bad engines or transmission issues.
What's the best little truck for the money?
What can I expect to find for $4,500 or less? Preferably less since I don't really need it.
What are the little trucks or models or years I should avoid?
What little trucks are going to be the most likely to start every time?
Anyone have any little truck experience or suggestions?
