Why should I also consider these? X

The base four-cylinder version of the Ford Ranger is still the most agreeable basic small pickup; crash-test results are quite good, and because of its advanced age it can be had at bargain prices.

The Nissan Frontier and Toyota Tacoma are both offered with either fuel-efficient four-cylinder engines or optional V-6s.

With the V-6, the Frontier is one of the most enjoyable, versatile mid-size pickups available, and it's surprisingly capable for towing or off-roading.

For the V-8 Colorado, the Dodge Dakota is the only real competitor.

The Dakota is substantially larger and offers a variety of engine configurations, including a powerful V-8, although it’s a bit less maneuverable than the Colorado.

The GMC Canyon is essentially the same vehicle, sharing platforms, components, and all else except for trim and badging with the Colorado.
