The next time you’re in traffic and happen to spot a new midsize truck from Toyota, Chevy, or Ford, pay attention to its size. Really, you might have little choice but to mind these midsizers, which are technically smaller trucks than their full-size siblings.
But “smaller” is a relative term that may no longer apply to most new trucks. Do you think midsize trucks have gotten out of hand?
Midsize trucks were formerly the best choice for folks who regularly hauled less, towed less, or just wanted to pay less than for a full-size pickup. But the price difference between new mid- and full-size trucks is now getting to the point where you might as well spring for that double-cab Tundra over the Tacoma.
