If you want a hard-working truck that can double as a little limo, the 2015 Ram 1500 wraps brawn with beauty, delivering best-in-class fuel economy as well as some pretty impressive towing and payload ratings.
Full-size trucks can be a headache to park and maneuver, plus a well-equipped model can push past $50,000. If you just need a casual work truck priced within reason, a midsize pickup truck like the Toyota Tacoma or GMC Canyon with the diesel engine make better choices.
