This is currently the best compact truck in today's market. Currently, all other competition has let their vehicles fall way below standard. Interior noise in city and highway speed are minimal if non existent. Automatic climate control, roomy interior, heated seats and Bose sound system add a lot of creature comfort. The V6 engine is peppy, and the manual mode on the transmission is responsive. Fact that OnStar is a click away is also wonderful. Off road capabilities are alright when say compared to the TRD, and a manual transmission in the off road package would be a wonderful addition to this vehicle.
