But are you stuck with an SUV, or would a quad-cab type truck also fit the bill? With the weather-proof bed covers on my Avalanche, I can haul items in the back in the winter. Plus when my SUV owning friends need to borrow my Avalanche to do stuff, that says something.
Im not stuck on an SUV, i like the ford ranger but not many in my price range with low miles. Just seems that an SUV is the best bang for the buck but im open to either or. The advice you guys are giving is very good and appreciative. Im getting ready to head out and test drive some and hopefully come home with something. No word on the trailblazers? just not worth it compared to the others or what? Seems like the Jeeps are the way to go.
