For the mid size and small pick ups you have
The Tacoma, the Colorado, Canyon just introduced again for the 2015 model year, the Nissan Frontier and all new for 2016 the Honda Ridgeline, based on the Honda pilot and the only unibody pickup for sale in the US
In 2018 Jeep is expected to introduce a pick up version of the Wrangler, which will make it the most capable off road pick up ,
And all of those trucks are large. I hate this trend towards larger and larger.
I want a truck like my dad had when I was a kid...it was a Nissan hardbody, or something like that. Isuzu made a small one like that, too. The current Taco is larger than the Tundra was less than 10 years ago. The Colorado is also a large truck, IMO. My dad has a Nissan Frontier, and he hates it. Basically the same 4 banger from the hardbody, but in a larger truck = no balls.
The jeep sounds interesting.
Bottom line? I don't want a 30+ thousand dollar work horse. I was looking at buying either a mid 90s Taco, or similar vintage Danger Ranger.
