Default chevy, ford, or toyota?

Within the next 6 months, I plan on paying monthly for a nice truck.

debating between the big full size trucks such as f150, tundra, or silverado. Sorry but I wont get a dodge.

or

smaller such as RANGER, colorado, or tacoma.

How gas prices are moving, I'm moving more towards a smaller truck. But I like how much more room, and well I guess just simply how much bigger full size trucks are.

Yea, I agree with that. I use to own a old diesel. Though I'll make an exception for dodge, The Cummins are great diesels.

I voted for the Tacoma since it offers a nice truck, not too bigs, modern design and relaibility. Its just as expensive as fullsizes though. choice number 2 would be the f150 with ecoboost (I would rahter have a Ram Hemi, but thats not for you lol.) third choice is ranger. Since you like room and fuel econo, the ranger shouldnt be a first choice bu still a great choice

Duramax > Powerjoke

Diesel is great option, but they are pricey.

The Tundra's have great interior, but its a yota and I probably wouldn't buy it. The new Silverados and Sierras look great imo, and I think their interior quality is higher than Fords in the truck dept

Its close with the Duramax for 2011 last I remember, but backed by a Dodge trans? no thanks. The Duramax at least has the Allison which is stron if you stay within stock power, but add another 80hp to it and its in trouble.
