    Gonna buy a truck in the next year or so. I'm an accountant so I'm naturally cheap.

    I like the nissan frontiers.

    The ford f150 is my favorite but expensive.

    The dodge ram 1500 in my opinion is likely the best bang for your buck.

    Examples: right now you can find

    2016 nissan frontier 4 door 4x4 with 26k miles for 22k.

    2010 ford f150 4 door 4x4 with 47k miles for 21k.

    2016 dodge ram 4 door 4x4 with 19k miles for 23k.


    Thoughts? Any of you have one of these trucks?

    What are you going to use it for?

    Working on the home you only need a 2x4. Less price, less maintenance, better ride, better milage.

    What do you need 4 doors for? Would a king cab work?

    Do you want a full bed? 4 doors and a full bed is a pretty long truck.

    I have a 13 year old Chevy 4x4, 105k miles. 5 speed stick. Great truck, probably never buy another, but if I did, it would be the Toyota for the gas milage.

    I am gonna keep it for decades. Use it more when its younger, keep it around for house shit and hunting as it gets older.
    4 door to take the family around in. Planning on getting the wifey pregnant by the end of the year.

    I would like a full bed but meh. 4 doors is more important to me.

    Here are the ones i have been eyeing.

    Good price and basically brand new https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/696450591/overview/

    A little older, but lower miles https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/detail/701842138/overview/

    Hell, that's the only time a use the 4 wheel drive, pulling logs out of the brush. That and low range to maneuver a trailer.

    Get the Nissan.

    IMO Dodge is junk.

    Make sure the truck spent it's life in Oregon or Washington. Carfax don't mean chit.

    Before I got the Chevy, I had a Ford Club with a full length bed. It was fine over at the ranch in eastern Oregon, but I hated the damn thing over on the westside.
    Had a turning radius like the BB Missouri. Just unusable in shopping parking lots. Best get a short bed.

    No. I loved that thing, but I don't have it. And that's long story I don't want to hear again.

    My 4 runner is paid off. But in a couple years I'm getting a newer Tundra.

    I'll probably test drive them in the next 6 months or so. I've been keeping an eye out for awhile.

    My parents had a couple camrys growing up and i fucking hateeeeeeee them. The most boring cars ever.

    I don't hate on people having them. I'm a big Subaru guy. And i've had a couple hondas when i was younger i really enjoyed. Just liked driving them way more.

    The ridgeline is super lame. So no on that.

    I like nissan. Used to drive a ex gfs nissan altima.

    But, love the look of ford trucks the most. Spendy they are though.

    Well yeah, mid-90's Camry's are about the definition of a grandma's car. Tundra's are about as dope as it gets. Keep they're value.

    Ford's are my least favorite. If I don't get a Tundra, I'm probably going towards a GMC Sierra, or a Ram.
