Considering a new vehicle- truck/SUV
I think it's about time for my current fish mobile to be retired. I love the old girl, and she's treated me well. But lets face it- a sedan isn't the best choice for transporting fishing gear, not to mention accessing said spots. At 142k miles I think it's time to start considering a new ride while I have some trade in value, and before the turbo blows (knock on wood). I REALLY don't want to get back into debt, but I think I should be proactive before repair bills start to mount.
My previous car was a Toyota- I was very happy with it. Considering a Tacoma or a 4runner- but looking for any input, really. I'm thinking V6, 4WD a necessity. If I go pickup I'd like a large bed to haul crap in, and would probably pop a cab onto it so I could sleep there if needed.
Any experience out there with the above models? Or a different ones that I should be considering? Looking for something after 2006, and don't really want to spend more than 25k.
