Divorced single ladies are the next most common customer for theses trucks.
Why are you considering one of these?

I've had two rangers, two F-150s, two Frontiers, a GMC 1500 and a Tacoma. The Tacoma was the best vehicle and held its value better than any of the others. On no planet is the Tacoma overrated. It's way better than the Ranger or the Colorado, plus it looks cooler. The Ranger looks like it's straight out of 20 years ago to me. Very dull truck.
My current F-150 is better for me because of its size. I don't want a small truck right now.
And I'm not some Toyota fanboy or anything. I would take an F-150 all day long before an outdated Tundra. But for the smaller trucks, the Tacoma is king.
Also, what about the new F-150? That's way better than the Ranger. I think the extended cab F-150 might even have the same or better rear seat legroom than the crew cab Ranger. Prices are probably comparable, too.
