Great truck for everythingSource: Cars.com...As far as handling on the road, it's a great ride. The power steering and ABS brakes make driving it a pleasure. However, it does not have as tight of a turning radius as I would like. I ultimately bought the Suzuki Equator because of the safety ratings, front and side airbags and the price. The Suzuki Equator was the best value for the money. I compared this truck with 3 other comparable makes and the Suzuki came out on top for best value AND best drive train warranty. 7 years/100,000 mi is unbeatable. This truck looks sharp, handles well, has great base features, plenty of zip, even for 4... |

Beats Chevy, Ford, Toyota, & Nissan !!!!!!Source: MSN Autos...the dealer only had the 6 with crew cab and color I wanted and I am glad - smooth engine and excelleration and feel of safety Cons: No standard I-Pod have to have dealer add on whcih I did not and may later on. Overall: I looked at all trucks for many months because I run then them for at least 200k miles before getting another. I was on my way to car max to look at a used one but after hitting the dealer and getting a great deal - $21k for a new one with sticker of $26k with bed liner and bed extender I was sold - and while the sales rep was going thru the into on my truck after I purchased... |

Good deal for the moneySource: Cars.com...It is not standard. I wish it were I'm looking into getting it done.I found it odd that the owners manual dose not fit in either of the two glove boxes. The sheet metal that the bed is made of is so thin that I put about 500 lbs of weight in the bed and it flattened some of the ribs in the bed. So a work horse it is not. It takes turns wide like a larger truck but handles pretty well over all. I was shopping for a used truck but with the incentives that were offered It was about the same price. Its a great daily driver. Its looks good. and it hauls home most anything I buy. I do wish it had... |
