I have been thinking about getting a small pickup for a while. Mainly for the bed rather than towing - hauling wood for woodworking, large gas tanks for my son’s forge, and gardening stuff. I’m a broken down old soldier so besides excelling as a truck I need it to be comfortable to ride/sit in*. I’ve been looking at the Taco for reliability and the Ridgeline because I’m pretty much the target audience for that design. YouTube has popped up some Ranger videos and I’ve been more impressed with it than I thought I would be. The Gladiator looks really cool but I’m not sure about it’s reliability. Our last Chevy was a disaster so the Canyon is way low on the list. Thoughts on the best truck for my needs?
* the comfort angle led me to look at the F150 and as much as I’d love massaging, ventilated seats but I’m not sure that justifies the extra $20-40k and I definitely don’t need the size.
