pickup shopping ... trucks are expensive sigh .

So last year i got a new ride for my wife . This year I need a new ride .

I always wanted to get a pickup truck again . NOT a new one . I usually buy a cheap

70,000 mile ride that is used and around $10,000 to 12,000 and I drive it into the ground .

But wow ... I cant find anything so now i am up around the $20,000 range . sigh .

So here is my delemna - and i pose this cus I am always astounded by the Prince.org community and the range of intelligence here on various subjects - - - - I am considering getting a 2 wheel drive ..... any thoughts on this ?????? i swore i would never do this for a pickup but ..... i also know the 4 wheel drive is more $$$ and how often do lil old me need the 4 wheel drive (we get like 2 snows a winter and they are usually just 2 inches and done .... lol ....

I like the tacomas ... i have looked at a few tundras but i think they are just too big for me ...

Just curious on any input from ya guys ! (and gals , i know you gals like guys in pickup trucks ).

Colonel Angus may be smelly. colonel angus may be a little rough . but deep down ... Colonel angus is very sweet.

I have a 2003 Suburban that isn't quite driven into the ground yet. Make me an offer!

But seriously - truck prices are ridiculous. I have no idea how anyone affords a $65,000 Suburban. Or a $90,000 Escalade. SMH.

Carmax / carmax.com

I'd don't see the point of have a Truck or SUV without 4-wheel drive... especially is you leave in a state where it snows.
