Best Used Trucks to Buy: Light Category

Honda Ridgelines: The Ridgeline was the favorite and scored highly among drivers for reliability, interior comfort, and best-in-class performance and style on the road. The lockable trunk located under the truck’s airtight bed and double-action tailgate rated highly for innovation.

Nissan Frontiers: The Frontier was introduced over 15 years ago and is highly rated among truck lovers. Its rugged performance and reliability keep the Frontier rated at the top. The Frontier appeals to a wide audience of truck buyers, due to the factory-installed spray-on bed liner and adjustable skid cleats to secure cargo hauling. This truck is built for work and play.

toyota tacomas: Tacoma comes in 18 different styling variations including Extended Cab, Crew Cab and Regular Cab body styles for both long and short beds. Tacoma outshines the competition for performance, style and reliability. These trucks come in 2- and 4-wheel drive models with a wide choice of V-6 or 4-cylinder engines that will satisfy truck lovers’ desires for on- and off-road performance. The resale value of these trucks continues to outperform all other trucks in this class.

Ford F-150: If you know anything about trucks, what I am about to share with you will not surprise you. Yes, the Ford F-150 still dominates this class and has been the number one selling truck for more than 30 years. This workhorse is praised for its performance, style, reliability, interior comfort, and ease of use on and off the road. It is available in V-6 or V-8 engines and is known for its outstanding towing capacity. Truck buyers stick with this line because of overall satisfaction and reliability. (My dad and brother had Ford trucks for years and years, and I never remember them having any major problems with them.)

Nissan Titan: The Titan entered the full-size pickup truck arena and gave Ford a run for its money. The two trucks have been rated nearly equal in most categories, with the Titan getting a slight advantage in towing capacity and power from its standard 5.6-liter V-8 engine. Nissan continues to chase Ford’s market share with strength and powertrain ingenuity.
