Deciding on the right truck
The first thing to decide on when trying to choose the right truck is whether to shop for mid size trucks or full size trucks. Choosing which class to go with will probably be decided by your budget.
Since mid size trucks are the
most affordable new trucks you can buy, people with tight budgets will want to check those out. They are also more fuel efficient than the full size counterparts, which makes them the obvious economical choice.
Mid size trucks cannot rival the power and comfort of even the
cheapest full size trucks, however. These trucks are more capable, and luxurious, than ever before.
If you want the truck that has not only the lowest price tag but will also cost you the least amount of money in the long run, the Toyota Tacoma is the
best car deal for you. Not only is it the cheapest and most fuel efficient, it also has a stellar reputation for reliability, low maintenance costs and high resale value.
If you want the most enjoyable every day truck you can buy, you might want to look at the Dodge Ram 1500. Its new suspension and advancements in luxury and in car technology make it one of the most enjoyable of all vehicles to drive.
There are plenty of other solid options to check out. It will probably come down to your personal preference, but you can certainly get the truck you want on a budget.
