Daughter is turning 16 in November. I had thought I would get her a small truck with a 4 cylinder for fuel mileage. I started looking at Tacomas and they say 21mpg. Well, my daily driver full size gets 21. I'm really surprised at the fuel mileage. I expected going from a V8 to a 4 banger would get me up to 30+
Any recommendations? Has to be a truck, needs to be 4wd. I've never owned anything less than a full size, but was thinking a manual tranny on a small truck would be best. If she pulls a trailer, she'll borrow my trucks. All she needs is a pickup bed for running errands, work, hauling feed, and I'd prefer enough seating that she could drive herself and 2 younger siblings around.
