I liked how the truck was small enough to be gas efficient, yet tough enough to get some real work done. I used it to commute to work and some hard hauling. I cut firewood for the winter, and I hauled quite a bit with it. The bed was a bit small but I just hooked a trailer on and my truck pulled it with no problem. It was also a quad cab, nothing is better than having a truck that is good on gas, can pull heavy loads, and fit five people.

The vehicle was used when I purchased it, so it already had over 200,000 miles. The interior was in very good condition with virtually no stains, rips, tears, or signs of wearing. The body had almost no rust on it aside from one spot where the truck had been dented by the previous owner. The bed of the truck was in rough shape and had several holes rusted through it, but it still help up for any tasks I needed to use it for. The underside was minimally rusted as well. It handled very well in all types of weather, especially because I didn't have snow tires on it and it still handled very well in snow and bad weather. The only things that I didn't like about the truck were a couple small details. The rear windows were incredibly squeaky whenever they were being rolled up or down and the front passenger window didn't open at all. Besides that though, I never encountered any major issues with the car's appearance or performance.
