For me? It's the Colorado Trail Boss.

I'll take about 13 McChickens.

Personally, I would much rather a Chevrolet Apache or something of that era.

no point in getting a pickup unless its fullsize
otherwise youre better off getting an SUV

It amazes me how fuckhuge these things are.
They're supposed to be the small truck

>>28486556
>truck is bigger than car
waow im shook

I thought about a Colorado but it's just way too big and I looked it up and it's based on the same platform as the full sized model so it's just as wide. I do a lot of dirt roads and it would be nice to have but I went with a regular SUV. It's certainly better than the Tacoma but it's just less practical than a normal compact SUV.

How the fuck do you people think these mid size trucks are so big? Try actually driving both a mid size and full size back to back and compare the difference. It's significant. Granted true size varies a little bit depending on the model but even in my pro4x frontier I am dwarfed by just about every full size truck that sits beside me, lift kit or not.

I'm convinced its a bunch of hobbits on /o/ now thinking a midsize truck is "way too big". Yeah, its bigger than a 1990 Geo Tracker, but its definitely not as big as a half or 3/4 ton truck.
>I do a lot of dirt roads

he drives on easy jeep trails that just aren't maintained so trees scratch his unnamed SUV.

I bought the F150 strictly because it doesn’t have some le rugged Western Hick name like “Colorado” or “Canyon” or “Trail Boss” or “Silverado”.

>>28485632 (OP)
Thats impressive.
Do you ever plan to use it like a truck?

>>28485632 (OP)
The ridgeline is the best non truck truck you can buy.

>>28486962
I like Ridgelines but they are expensive and get barely better MPG than a halfton.

>>28486971
they are expensive, I've been considering replacing my transit van with a pickup (since I can't buy a new transit connect). The ridgeline is the obvious candidate but I can get a low mile f150 regular cab v8 for half the price of a ridgeline. Still I am a honda fanboy.

Other consideration is buying a totalled focus ST and transplanting it all into my transit.

>>28486971
not to mention the extra length of any pickup with very little interior cargo space increase sort of sucks. I don't often move gravel and dirt, tradie though.

>>28486808
>I bought the F150 strictly because it doesn’t have some le rugged Western Hick name
it's worse

>>28487025
the real travesty is lack of manual transmission trucks. I would buy a manual short bed f150 in a heart beat.

I sat in a Tacoma Trailhunter a couple of days ago. Even with the seat lowered all the way down and the wheel all the way up the top of it it was still blocking half the dash, and I'm only 5'10". I'll never understand what the fuck Toyota is smoking with their ergonomics.

>>28486766
I had a first gen Colorado and now have a second gen. I'm still happy with the size of the second gen compared to a half ton, but the first gen was smaller enough than the second gen that for some time after the switch, I felt less confident weaving through the trees in the bush or navigating tight parking lots full of retards who can't park. But most of the size difference is actually height, not length or width, so you get used to it. IDK why every truck has to be so tall these days.

Anyways, half tons are gay, get a small truck or a heavy duty, there's no reason to deal with all the size drawbacks of a full size if you can't sling 20,000+ on a gooseneck.

>>28487566
>IDK why every truck has to be so tall these days.
Truck taller = pp more bigger

>>28487573
other way around, actually
stock suspension = biggest dick
leveling kit = average sized dick
any lift over 2" = micro
lowered/slammed = mexican (also micro)

>>28487610
I'm not talking about suspension height, my old K5 with a 4 inch lift has a similar roof height to a stock late model 1 ton. I'm talking about the depth from the floor to the bottom of the truck, which is over a foot on most modern full sized trucks, and for the Colorados I've been buying, is like 4 inches thicker on the second gen than the first gen.

And then everyone sets their seats to give themselves enough head room to wear a 10 gallon hat, despite the fact that modern headrests don't like you ride cowboy'd up anyways, and they end up looking like a little kid driving a school bus in an afterschool special or something. I've got a 2019 3500 at work, so I know you don't have to ride with a puerto rican lean, you are absolutely capable of looking like a grown man in a full size and having a decent sightline over the hood, but so many people, even people over 6 feet, set themselves up weirdly low in the cab of their trucks.

chevrolet is the epitome of american tastelessness.

>>28486735
I don't like to play the size game but your Frontier is the same size as a 3/4 ton GMT800. That wouldn't really matter if the Frontier had a comparable interior but it has an extremely small interior compared to it's external size. This makes these "small" trucks extremely pointless. That's why people go with a slightly bigger modern half ton.
