New vehicle

I want to buy a new vehicle.  A pickup truck.  Why?  With all the yard work I do my van is inadequate for hauling mulch, soil, etc.  And my van is getting old(er).  Even though I take care of it when needed it has almost 250,000 miles on it.  A truck will be extremely handy also in the winter when I need 4-wheel drive.  I had a truck before and used it well.  Now it sits in my daughter's driveway.  It's being used by her roommates.  It has over 250,000 miles on it and still runs.  It's a Chevy and that's what I'm going to buy after I get all the things taken care of that need it here at the house.  House comes first.  It may mean that I can't put as much down on the truck as I'd like but I can always make it up by paying the truck off early.

I used to have a little Mazda pickup truck. Thing ran almost forever and stood up to much abuse. Road salt finally killed it.

I'd like a smaller pickup truck again but almost nobody makes them anymore.

I think the pickup would be a good choice for you. They certainly come in handy!

Sixbears...I'll be getting a full size 4x4. Comes in handy in the country.
HJ...yes, it will.
