the 4.0 liter engine will last forever.

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.

This truck might be small but it is able to do almost any thing that a normal sized truck can, without the worry of gas prices. Currently I can get 28 to 29 miles per gallon. The truck has a 5 speed manual transmission with a 2.5L 4 cylinder motor. Although the truck doesn't have a great towing capacity it has no problem pulling a boat or other small trailer. Overall i am very pleased with the purchase.
