Just traded my ‘16 Challenger for a ‘99 Tacoma extra cab 5spd. Walked out with a check and keys for the truck.

I missed these things so much, glad they are a dime a dozen where I live. I don’t think I’ll ever sell it. Even if I kill it, good opportunity for a straight axle conversion and a 4.0 swap.

It’ll feel good having a $16,000 bike in the back of a $9,000 truck haha

I just read an article that states that Ford is coming out with a mid sized hybrid pu truck in a few months that will get about 40 miles per gal and 0-60 times in the 4-5 sec time with a full size bed and a price below $22,000.

I am waiting for one of those. It should be a killer!

This little bastard had just over 900,000km on it before I had to let it go. Still ran pretty good.

If you ever get the opportunity, snag the imported Mazda or Isuzu 4 banger turbo diesels.

"A Four and a half foot bed !, Six feet with the tailgate down" !! Wow yippee what will I do with all that space !!!
Swing and a miss Ford. A 4-1/2' bed makes that truck absolutely worthless for what I need. Why in the fuck can these guys just not get it...... We need a truck to carry shit, that's it. Lot's and lot's of shit, like seven feet worth of shit, that we can reach into the bed of the truck and grab without a ladder. I don't need gps or heated seats or electrical outlets or tv screens or pretty rims or black roofs or windsheild wiper activated headlights or any of that happy horseshit. We just want a cheap truck to carry shit around. Talk about "Over educated beyond their intelligence" Who even comes up with this crap ? Some 26 year old tech student who couldn't hang a picture on a wall ? A 4-1/2' bed..........sorry, that's not a "truck" insert eyeroll here

The title is “Bring back little trucks!!!” And that is exactly what this vehicle is and why I chose to post it. There is a place in the market for the Maverick and others like it. I can honestly see myself using this as a daily driver for what I need. Sorry it seems to have gotten you so upset.

My son thinks it cool and wants to buy it.

The top selling pickup configuration in America is the crew cab with a tiny 5.5' bed.
