A small compact used car is way
cheaper to run then a truck . The trucks are safer then a smaller SUV for
towing. It is the stopping power and weight you need.
We own 2 3/4 ton extended
cab trucks (long story) and tires ect are darn pricey not to mention how much
hassel to find parking in the city.
I am selling my 97 GMC and buying a
small used car for exactly the reasons Angie pointed out.
