Checkout What Top Gear Has To Say about Pick-Up Trucks

Pick -up trucks were known for their utility affair. But with time it has also become a luxury affair. Pickup trucks are more than towing and hauling. In the current era, they are more about modern technology and luxuries. The new engine technology has higher outputs. New manufacturing approach has reduced weight and enhanced ride quality.

Once upon time pickup trucks were only used for farming and business purposes. They used to be basic trucks having an AM radio and flat vinyl bench seat as they were used to maintain haul supplies. But the modern day pickup trucks are seen to be taking the family on a lakeside vacation or a ski day. I will give you a list recommended by Top Gear. 

Chevrolet Colorado

The 2018 Chevrolet Colorado is known for its power. It is the best pickup truck of all time. The interior may have been compromised as compared to other trucks but if you are looking for power, you need to buy this truck without a second thought. It is pretty much a hard rock for an off-road adventure. The new Chevrolet Colorado has a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder engine capacity with 200 hp. It generates a 191 lb-ft torque better than any competitive four-cylinder engine.

Ford Ranger

This is a little more powerful as compared to Colorado. The Ranger is capable of having an off-road pickup. With the terrain management software, off-road pickup is easy. The Ford Ranger's suspension is too soft, squats and nose-dives at highway speed. Ford after sales servicing which is paltry compared to other brands.

Isuzu D-Max

The D-Max and Colorado are like twins only their factories are different. The powerful and equipped D-Max is fast, fun, smooth, refined and quiet. These features work great under stress that ensures they work for a very long time. The fuel-efficient can run for a very long making efficient pick-up. Interior is roomy.

Mitsubishi Strada

If you want to go for an all-rounder, then Strada is the one for you. You can have great power with the 4D56 and new 4N15 engines. The off-road ability and individual wheel articulation/suspension drop isn't good like the other pickups. If you think you will take a lot of off-road trips going through extreme rocky and steep terrain, then Strada is not the right choice. If you are going to extreme off-road conditions go for a muscle like Colorado. If you are going for long distance than think about Strada because it is very fuel efficient.

Toyota Hilux

Hilux is the most popular truck in the segment. With good looks, it has an excellent engine transmission. Hence, it is a complete package. It excoriates great features like a differential lock at the back. The only issue is the sky-high price. The price has crushed its journey on the road. It has a fast pace and capable of running off-road.

Conclusion- Place your choice as per your budget and the best you prefer. We would suggest you go to Colorado because this is the vintage and an evergreen truck.
