What car should I get as my High School Car?

Question

I am in High School and shopping for my first car, preferably a truck. I was looking into either a Ford Ranger or a Dodge Dakota. Which of the 2 trucks is better? Also if you have any recommendations for any other trucks that would be great! I am not looking for anything too big.

Answer 1

The Ranger is a simple and reliable truck,......the Dakota isn't.

I suggest you think about how much fuel prices are and how bad resale values are dropping for trucks. You may regret buying a truck and not something more fuel efficient.

Answer 2

you might wanna consider the toyota tacoma as well or the mazda's truck which is the same as the ford ranger(they share the same platform)

If you are going to use it to haul you toys or other cargo around, then go ahead.

If not I would think carefully about a truck...mileage is horrible, even on small trucks.

Answer 3

Toyota pickup

Answer 4

Trucks aren't really the best way to go these days as they take up too much gas. Considering gas prices are sky high now, you might want to look at cars like Toyota Corolla or Camry. I love the. Very reliable and gas efficient!

Hondas aren't too bad too. Accord or Civic might be good but give toyotas a try first

Answer 5

both you have listed are good trucks, i cant really say which is better but i   would say the ranger.  another recomendation would be the GMC-Chevy colorado-cayon(i think the name is right)

the chevy silverado is a great truck with dicent mpg compared to others but that might be geting to big for your taists
