Looking to get a used full size truck, something along the lines of an F150 or equivalent. I’m specifically looking for a no-frills utilitarian truck.

What should I be looking for? Are F-150s all they are hyped up to be?

Pick one

The closest you can approach that, (with the caveat you’re hauling hundreds of pounds of building material or something like that most weeks) is a sensible model at least 10 years old. My buddy worked in construction (until recently becoming an electrician) and does handyman stuff- he’s been driving the same model of Ford Ranger for nearly 10 years now. That is truck that gets used. The enormous luxury barges they sell nowadays are literally driven by little blonde housewives to and from the grocery store (literally saw this morning, looked like she was almost lost in the seat).

Man that’s what I’m saying. I used to have a Ranger with absolutely no frills (not even power windows) and it was great. Nothing ever broke on that truck and it felt like a true “pickup”… sad to see the trucks now be essentially luxury busses with a bed

Vans are superior to pickups in every way imaginable. Other than boosting your ego

You can have a van with a crew cab that still has longer cargo area than the longest bed option on a truck with over 2 meters of height in the cargo area. The load height is much lower so it's easier to load and unload. The cargo is covered from the elements and niggers. There is absolutely no reason to get a truck over a van.

I worked construction, specifically digging foundations and septics, and the only time I used my pickup was for smaller orders of material sold by the yard loaded with skid or front end loader. Although just yesterday I filled the back of a cargo van with gravel by hand at the depot to repair the road to my property. Was supposed to rain before I could get it down.
