Light Pickup
I'm looking for a 8 to 10 year old sporty light pickup truck to replace my acura.
Any recommendations, foreign or domestic? I dream of ridiculous fast but will compromise. |

Re: Light Pickup
The syclones aren't bad at all. Remember they were underated because it would be terrible for something from GM to outperform the 'vette. Same thing with the Grand Nationals and GNX in the 80's. Both had about 100 more hp at the wheels than the stock numbers.

Re: Light Pickup
i'm gonna say that whatever fun may be had in one will be diminished significantly by the rattling of the entire interior. fast, yes. quality build, no.

Re: Light Pickup
I bought a 2001 Ford Ranger and it's great. The best thing; parts are cheap and they are easy to work on. Good luck!

Re: Light Pickup
Toyota Tacoma, V6 5 speeds are plenty fast by themselves, add in the TRD Supercharger and you have a pretty mean truck.
