Buy Used Pickup Trucks with Confidence

Pickup trucks are light-duty trucks with an enclosed cab and an open cargo area with low sides and tailgate where goods can be loaded onto and transported. Depending on what kind of goods you are hauling will determine what type of pickup truck you will want as there are different hauling and towing capabilities and cargo spacing that you'll encounter when browsing for used pickup trucks.

Aside from the ease of transporting goods, other benefits of pickup trucks are its off-road and hauling capabilities, thus making it an excellent choice for a light duty vehicle for job sites. The majority of trucks you'll find at our used truck auctions will have some form of AWD or 4x4 functionality ensuring optimal performance for off-road use. If you're looking for a more luxury option or just a family hauler for the weekend, buying a used pickup truck at our auctions is a great way to get all the bells and whistles without breaking the bank.

Diesel or Gas Pickup Truck

Buying a diesel or gas pickup truck is a very common question that you'll come across and it will essentially boil down to your budget and how you want to use your pickup truck.  There are pros and cons to each, but your decision ultimately will depend on how you will be using your pickup truck.

Pros for Diesel Trucks

• Better fuel efficiency
• Longevity of the truck
• Higher torque specs (this allows for larger towing capabilities)

Cons for Diesel Trucks

• Higher maintenance cost
• More complicated internal systems & technologies
• Costly to buy

Pros for Gasoline Trucks

• Cheaper than diesel trucks
• Less costly to maintain
• Better for hauling items

Cons for Gasoline Trucks

• Not as efficient on fuel as compared to diesel
• Longevity isn't comparable to diesels

As mentioned earlier, you need to ask yourself what type of work will it be performing? If you're driving around town hauling cargo between worksites, then a gasoline powered truck is ideal. If you are looking to transport heavier goods for towing, a diesel might be better suited.

Other types of pickup trucks for sale

Mid-size pickup trucks are probably the most common pickup trucks you'll find on the road. They combine all the utility purposes (flatbed, AWD, minor towing) in a smaller sized unit. In terms of payload, they can be comparable to a full-size or half-ton trucks, but in a smaller body making it a suitable choice for an everyday work truck, or even if you just enjoy trucks in general. Some common models in this class of trucks are the Toyota Tacoma, Ford Ranger, & Chevy Colorado.

Full-size pick up trucks vary in payload and towing capacity but are seen as more of the "family" pick up truck. Equipped with all the capabilities of a mid-size truck (if not more), you can find better bells & whistles in this class of trucks. You'll also find a larger cargo area and better (comfortable) seating capabilities.
