Why should I also consider these?

The 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac competes with four-door variants from both compact and mid-size pickup segments, although its size is definitely mid-size.
The Chevrolet Colorado and its nearly identical sibling, the GMC Canyon, now have an available V-8 that makes them much more competitive, as their rough five-cylinder engine isn't recommended.
The Nissan and Toyota mid-size trucks are not earth-shattering in terms of performance or versatility, but they are worth a look, as they provide nearly even competition to the 2010 Ford Explorer Sport Trac in most every area of consideration.
The Dodge Dakota was updated in 2008, and its longer traditional steel bed might be an advantage for some buyers.
Honda's Ridgeline is an interesting alternative.
Though the Explorer Sport Trac outdoes the Ridgeline in real truck tasks like towing, hauling, or off-roading, it's clearly better for on-road duty with passengers, offering superior ride and handling.
