The right used truck for your needs

The best truck is the one that fits how you really drive and work. If you commute daily and haul on weekends, a midsize pickup could deliver great value and fuel economy.

For heavy payloads, a three quarter ton truck with durable suspension and cooling systems may be the smart pick.
