We bought a Tundra SR5 double cab with a 6ā bed, 4WD in 2010. I paid only $22K in 2010. Today the same truck is more than double the price.
My income hasnāt more than doubled in 14 years, but Toyota (and every other automaker thinks it has). This is why people can no longer afford the OVERPRICED vehicles.

The Ford Maverick is a very affordable truck. The Maverick can carry many different things from dirt bikes, snowblowers, refrigerators, kayaks, loam/dirt/bark mulch. It can tow a 5x8 trailer and that is enough for my occasional junk removal that I have to do. I highly recommend the Ford Maverick to anyone that is thinking about buying it. I have driven mine 45,000 Miles and it drives amazing, the steering is like non other. The low bed height is also another amazing perk when loading heavy things. I mostly use it to transport my E-Bike which is around 70 Pounds and I am very glad that the bed is low when loading and unloading. It is also the hybrid, I average 39 MPG. For $23,000 after my options and all add on fees people can not believe how much truck you get for such little money. I also drive my truck in three New England winters and I have not gotten stuck yet with FWD, I currently have Firestone Destination LE/3 Tires on it. I hope people looking for affordable trucks consider the Ford Maverick. Thank you for the videos TFL, God Bless- Evan

Does anyone else remember when compact trucks were actually cheaper than compact cars? I remember pricing out a bare-bones Ford Ranger for under $5k in the 1980s. Entry level Toyotas ran around $6k I believe. I knew high school kids who worked part time at McDonalds that drove fairly new pickups.

Great video! Loved the focus on more āaffordableā trucks. I am buying at the end of 2024. I am leaning midsize with a max budget of $45,000 plus/minus $2,500. Given that we tow a small 2,900 lb camper and haul camping gear, we will cross shop base trim 1/2 ton 4WD trucks as well.
