Default Trucks

So I was out the other day looking at new trucks since my car is wrecked. I am thinking a small to midsize pickup truck. I was wondering if anyone here has any opinions on what pickup truck to get.

The three I'm looking at right now are:
  • Ford F150
  • Ford Ranger
  • Dodge Dakota
The Ford Ranger seems a bit small but doable. No tow bar, which really helped the last car. Dodge Dakota is medium size and seems really nice. Ford F150 is a big truck, not sure if I want something that big?

I'm looking for this in a truck:
  • Tow Package is a Plus
  • V6 Engine
  • 4x2 or 4x4
  • Automatic Drive
  • Supercab, medium seating in the back.
  • 4 doors are a plus, hidden doors for the rear
  • Used is fine
  • 1996-2007 model
  • Under $15,000
I don't need brand new, it's a waste of money.

Well if your going to buy a truck. You cant go wrong with a ford. Just like they say they are built Ford tough. My mom, sister inlaw and brother inlaw all have Ford trucks. And not a single problem with any of them.

That's one reason I'm interested in Fords.

My familly seems to have more issues with our chrysler products than our fords. Plus I have liked the Larger Ford pickups a lot more. plus most people I know don't really like their rangers but also I have read with them and heard most people put a little weight in the back of their rangers.

The problem is I don't want a huge truck, which is why I was looking at the Ranger or Dakota. I haven't made up my mind yet.
