If you’re looking for a handsome, hard-working full-size half-ton truck with an edge in the areas of fuel economy, engine options, towing and payload, the 2016 Ram 1500 pickup is a worthy candidate.
Many midsize pickups have grown in size and capability, almost matching the horsepower and tow ratings of their full-size counterparts. If you need something easier to park with a price starting around $20,000 or prefer a manual transmission, take a look at the Nissan Frontier, Chevy Colorado or Toyota Tacoma.
