I am wanting to buy a small pick up can be older whatever, does anyone have any complaints or suggestions on what to get? Ford Ranger, Nissan Frontier, Toyota Tacoma, etc. Also, has to be extended tohold a car seat.

Can't go wrong with a used Tacoma UNLESS the frame is rusted. Older models had a 15-year frame warranty because Toyota bought defective frames from an Ohio company; they were replacing them for free up until Dec 2012. Regardless if it's still within the 15 year warranty period, Toyota will no longer honor the warranty.

used to drive a Ranger for work, it was a POS. Had a 4x4 Dakota quad cab, and liked it alot.

Tacoma. I have a 2005 quad cab that just turned 150K and it has never had any issues (outside of normal maintenance or wear & tear).

You guys need to start buying cars from me. Then I can justify to my boss why I spend all day on CP at work.

I love my Dakota, it's been rock solid other than the shitty Chrysler paint. And the cab is roomy as hell and comfortable, I think they are very underrated trucks.

I have a 2005 Ranger and used to drive my '77 Trans Am because they got similar mileage

If you get a Tacoma you might as well go automatic because for some reason they get better gas mileage than the 6 speeds. I have a 6 speed Prerunner and get about 16.5 mpg.

Interesting. I get between 17.5 and 19 in my automatic.
