I like this vehicle, because it's made for working. It does all of the things that you expect out of a truck. I have noticed no issues with towing or with hauling. The cab is the perfect size for moving, and I've used it to help many people move several large pieces of furniture. I like the fact that it is older and therefore isn't as prone to a lot of the scrapes and dings that newer model trucks tend to experience quite easily. It is quite easy to personally maintain, and the parts aren't overtly expensive. I like the fact that you can put larger tires on it without having to worry about cutting into the body or getting a lift-kit. I like the fact that the front seat is one continuous seat and isn't separated by a middle console, but it does come with a middle console that can be lifted to make a third seat for the front. I especially enjoy the extra seating, because it does have a back seat. I did not purchase this truck new, so there are some issues, but I'm fairly certain that it has more to do with the previous owners as opposed to the manufacturers.
