Before this latest development, I was looking to replace my Ranger. (Fat chance, now)
I really like the size of my Ranger, but I wish I had a back seat to carry the kids (in a pinch). BUT I didn’t care for the Explorer SportTrac’s mini-bed.
I would’ve liked a crew cab pickup, with a 6’ bed. Nissan is the only one I know of right now that’s not a fullsize.
You mention Nissan.
I should say that a month or so ago I got “stuck” with the little Nissan Versa hatchback as a rental car and oddly felt the same thing that I experienced with the Milan-—”this is a car!”
A lot of times when I’m renting I go cheap and end up with Kia Rodeo, Chevy Aveo, the little Hundyai-—and they are like rolling down the highway in a beercan at 65.
The Versa though priced comparatively (I looked it up) was WAY above the cheap-@ss Chevy and the others......
