Well, sold off my last truck about 2 years ago. Thought our Subaru could be a do-it-all vehicle, but turns out not to be the case. Here are my basic needs:
- Truck bed is a must. Too many home projects. (We don't want a trailer).
- Enough capability for mild trails (no crazy rock crawling--just to access some awesome backcountry in AZ and UT). Hardest trail we'll go on is probably something like the Hold-in-the-Rock trail (not Road).
- Seats 5 comfortably (2 adults and 3 kids).
- Would prefer to keep it for 10+ yrs/200-300k miles, so reliable.
- Decent aftermarket support. Really, just for lift and some armor.
- I don't tow much, so capacity in that aspect is not a factor.
- Price point: Around $30k (lower the better, of course). New or used.
I was thinking either the current or 2016 Tacoma would fit the bill. But thought I'd ask to see what suggestions the rest of you had. Thanks.
