Best Pickup truck for daily use!?
Ok so i'm looking for a new car. I've been using a Nissan sentra 2001. I"m doing sailboat every summer so i need a car with place so each season i can transport my outboard motor, sail and every stuff for my boat. I had to use one of my friend Dakota beaucuse the stuff wont fit in my sentra. Any idea? for a good pickup or a car with plenty of room? i'm tall too so a mid-size car would be a great idea.

How about a Chevy Silverado, Dodge Ram, Ford F-150 or F-250. I mean I drive a 1996 Chevy Silverado 2500 and I'm pretty happy with it except for gas use which isn't that bad it just isn't as good as a car. Good luck deciding on the right truck or car.

I know, it's quite funny to see a bunch of full size pickups driving around and rarely hauling anything. If you insist on driving a V8 gas hog vehicle at least get something fun and cool like a muscle car. The smaller trucks like S10's and Rangers are about the same as a little car and some have 4cyls, so that's understandable.

Go with a full size pickup because most people that buy mid-size trucks regret it later and go with either a GMC or Chevy.
The GMC will hold a better resale value plus both the the GMC and Chevy get the best gas mileage.

Toyota Tacoma
Nissan Frontier
If you want room and power, get a Toyota Tundra Crewmax.
I don't really have anything against American trucks, but American trucks just can't hold any resale value.
People that tell you to get a Ram or F150 over a Titan or Tundra are people that have no idea how big the difference in resale is.

The best pickup truck for daily usage is a Toyota Tacoma.

I have owned a lot of trucks and as far as gas milage and reliability the Toyota truck has ben the best by far.I have seen many of them with 300.000 miles and still running good.

Subaru Outback Sport- AWD plus 5 star safety. It can be used for moderate off-roading and towing. It also averages 24 mpg, better than all SUVs and pickup trucks.

I''d go with a Ford F-150. Great truck and best payload and towing in its class. Also cheaper than Chevy or dodge. I wouldn't go with a Toyota because it's cashier and it doesn't have the greatest towing and payload capacity.
