First Truck!

Hey guys,

I'm getting my license soon, and was wondering, what would be a first good truck? Now since I'm still in high school i don't have the money to buy a brand new f150 but i just want a truck thats reliable and alright on gas, because the last thing i want is a gas guzzler. I don't need a lot of towing capacity and don't really care about how much power it has, because its my first truck. So i was wondering if you guys could help me out a bit!

Thanks.

Welcome! How much will you have to spend on the truck? That will determine what you get. Look for trucks with the reliable 4.6 engine. Also, keep back a little cash for any " fix it's " you want to do, such as wheels, etc.
