Trucks have become more expensive than ever because of the addition of the upscale and luxury items that are part of what we find in the trucks that we drive. If you don’t want to spend the large amount needed for a top trim level on your truck, you can find the power and value you’re looking for when you shop at the base trim level. Let’s take a look at a few of the most affordable choices you can make to have a new truck that gives you the drive and power you need.

Shop the Base Model of These Trucks

2019 Ram 1500 Classic – Even though the new Ram rides on a brand new platform, the Classic model is a continuation of the previous model to give you the drive you’re looking for. Choose the Tradesman trim and you’ll have a regular cab truck with the power and capability you’re looking for when you head out for a drive. Carry, pull, haul, or tow whatever you need when it’s time to get work done and have a truck that adds value to the day when you put your truck to the job it’s meant for.

2019 Ford Ranger – Here’s the newest member of the midsized truck segment and it can be the right one for you in the XL trim. This trim level gives you an extended cab without a rear seat to offer more cargo room for items that you need to carry in the cabin. This truck is a special choice because it has the same engine offered as the higher trims to make it easy to have the power you’re looking for and the drive you need in a truck without the frills.

2019 Toyota Tacoma – Make the right choice and let this truck be the one you drive. The Tacoma has been a default model in the midsize truck segment and the SR trim is the base model that gives you the value you’re looking for. This truck can be had with the Utility Package to make sure you have the benefits you want and a lower price than you expect. Put this truck to work and let it be the one you drive every day while offering you the capability you’ve been looking for when you head out for a drive.

2019 GMC Canyon – This is an upscale truck, even in the base SL trim level, but it’s extremely affordable and a truck that can give you the drive you want. Powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine, a used GMC Canyon can be the perfect truck for you to get work done and feel comfortable when you drive. This base trim offers you an extended cab model that makes it easy for you to have the drive you want when you head out for the day. Check out this truck and see if it’s the right model for you to get more done.

2019 Chevrolet Colorado – While there are a variety of upscale configurations for this truck, the base trim level gives you an extended cab and the power you need for the work you want to get done. The engine is the same as what you find in the Canyon which is powerful enough to give you the tow rating you’re looking for. This truck does come with a touchscreen infotainment screen and a power driver’s seat, even at the base level. Fill this truck with the items you need to take with you on the road and let it be the right way for you to get things done.

2019 Nissan Frontier – The least expensive base truck on the market today is the Frontier in the S trim. This truck offers you an extended cab and the midsize build you want with a simple and easy to understand setup. You can even have the experience of rowing your own gears with this truck when you’re ready to drive and enjoy what a truck is supposed to be for you. Fill the bed with gear, store some items in the cab, and head out on the roads in the Frontier that costs less while giving you more.
