This is not a bad truck for carrying small things like lawn mowers or furniture, but anything larger will have the drivetrain working overtime. It comes with a 3 liter V6 engine and the one that I drove (my father's) was 5 speed. I enjoyed the fact that it was stick but it just was not responsive and the clutch set-up was too soft for me. I do like the fact that this particular model could run on Ethanol (E85). Also the interior lacked in style and overall finish (most of it was plastic). Not a bad truck for practical uses (which is what it was built for), but not for someone looking for a lot of torque.

Great little truck. Could have used a little more power and needed four wheel anti-lock breaks. Like the size of the truck to get through tight spots but doesn't have the cargo space of a full size truck. The cab was just big enough for me to fit in as I am 6'-6". Fun to drive!

I love this little truck. I have only owned for a month now and drive it almost more than I do my Mustang. It is a 2.5cy I4 with a 4 speed with over drive. It has a large amount of torque. The only issue I am having with it is the exhaust rattles because there is a mount broke. Other than that this car is extremely fun to drive, and is well built.
