The Best Midsize Pickup Trucks
If you're shopping for a midsize pickup truck, now is a great time as there's lots of competition among manufacturers in this space.
If you need help figuring out which models you should consider, check out PickupTrucks.com's Midsize Pickups Truck Comparison article which was released this week. They go over each model below and highlight the key differences between each one.
Here are the results:
No. 1: 2016 GMC Canyon SLE
No. 2: 2017 Honda Ridgeline RTL-E
No. 3: 2016 Chevrolet Colorado Z71
No. 4: 2016 Toyota Tacoma TRD Off-Road

The biggest surprise was how well the #2 Honda Ridgeline performed.
