If your looking for a Ford then i would go with the Ranger. Try craigslist.com to find used trucks in your area.

It depends on what you are going to use the truck for. If its for the occasional hauling but more for a toy go with a Toyota. Toyota%26#039;s rock.

Reply:well, good is a relative term, but if you want MPG that anyone, in this day of skyrocketting gas prices, would call even decent, you%26#039;re not looking at a full-size truck. And you may have trouble find that in a smaller truck as well. Trucks just don%26#039;t have aerodynamics to support good MPG without large effort (like making them hybrid). You%26#039;re sure you need a truck.....? I used to always drive a truck daily but have switched to a car.
Reply:First things first... Trucks are not fuel efficient.





And if you get a %26quot;more efficient%26quot; one, you%26#039;ll kick yourself.


The 2.4L straight 4 that is in my pickup is a slog.


Up some of the hills where I live I%26#039;m stuck in second. SECOND!


And good luck towing anything...


So go for a least a V6... At least you will have a usable truck.





I would go for a used Toyota... They are easy to fix and pretty reliable. They also have good resale value, so it may be hard to find an inexpensive one.





Otherwise shop around for a deal. You may have to hunt. There are people who are desperate for cash out there. Take advantage of them. I purchased my car (VW Jetta) $4,000.00 under Blue Book.





Good Luck
