I purchased this vehicle used off a lot, it was not the best looking but in decent shape. Our family wanted a truck that could tow what we needed, hence the choice of the largest gas engine made in this truck and it's tough size. It is a large truck and has been the most reliable vehicle in our home. It starts every time and has never let us down. For a gas powered engine it gets decent gas mileage. It is strong in 4 wheel drive and can tow a trailer with ease. It also has some great room for people to ride in the back bench. It is fun to take off road and you feel secure knowing you are in a large vehicle. This truck has been the best purchase ever!
