I named her Darwin, because she was a gift that was supposed to evolve into money. But she ended up actually evolving. I crashed her into a medium sized tree on a muddy road driving back to college one morning a few years back. She took it like a champ. I saw it coming and had just enough time to aim for that sweet spot on the bed of the truck between the rear tire and the back windows. I got really lucky and only dented the box. Although I was a little surprised when the air bag didn't pop out and hit me in the face. I hit the tree hard enough to rip it out of the ground and land on top of it. I thought she was done, but when a farmer pulled my truck off the tree I was able to drive her away. And continued to drive her after replacing the bed for 6 more years and 180,000 miles.

This is an excellent truck. I have been driving it for fourteen years and I have never had a major problem with it. Apart from a couple of minor incidents the only time it has been in the shop is for routine maintenance. It drives just as good today as it did fourteen years ago. If you are looking for a vehicle that you can put a lot of miles on and still maintain quality year in and year out then this truck is definitely for you.

This truck is very reliable, I bought it back in 2003 and I'm still using it today! I have it in green but almost all normal colors look good on it. The two front seats are extremely comfortable for long car rides, and there is defiantly enough foot space for the driver. At 22 mpg on the highway it is very efficient for a truck, I can fill her up and not have to worry about it for a good two weeks. The truck is manual and that makes it super fun to drive, I just love having something to do while driving. Overall very nice truck and I am proud of my purchase
