Hits: Strong engine and pulling power with full-size bed and seating for 5 adults. Roomy interior has supportive seats and a lot of goodies for the price.
Misses: Those giant side mirrors are too big and I don't like the split feature. The long bed makes this a bear to park in lots and the gas mileage is ugly. Ride's a bit bouncy and the truck's so tall a running board is a must.
