The era of the V8 half ton truck is dying. In the future there will be 3/4+ trucks, and Honda Ridgeline types. With the squeeze the .gov is putting on the manufacturers, they can only make a heavy, v8, 4x4 so fuel efficient. |

I think it's pretty cool for a small, compact truck. I'd take one of those over a Ranger/Colorado/etc. It reminds me of a bigger, modernized version of those Japanese mini trucks. There are tons of farmers around here using them for general farm work. http://www.tntoutdoor.net/Images/IMG_0230.jpg Bongo Trucks are awesome for farm trucks...but I cant drive one as the is no room for my knees.... |
