Need to buy a truck. help me asap!

hey guys.
i have G coupe and have a SUV and a sedan at the moment. (w/e )
yeah back on topic.

I need some advices from any of you with truck experience.
I will be using it as a carrier for products. they will be as small as a bucket and as big as a sofa(3seater).
Used my SUV before but i am selling that due to couple reasons.
the truck has to have AWD(or 4x4) and not sure if i want 2 doors or 4 doors.
I am looking at the OTD price around 30,000 or less.
Thanks for help.

ps. not looking for used one...but new ones. Also, i will keep this car for a LONG time.

hey guys.
no g 4 me, just a porsche and my escalade, and I date a supermodel.
Sorry I don't post as much as I used to, but the law firm has been keeping me real busy.
back on topic.

I would recommend increasing your budget to buy a 4wd Chevrolet Avalanche. What's another 10 thousand dollars in the grand scheme of things?

I'm not a huge fan of American vehicles, but they know their trucks. The F-150 and Colorado should get the job done. My step-fathers 99 Durango has over 400,000+ miles on it, and is still moving strong (lots of high miles) No "major" replacements on it yet. The Frontier and Tacoma will give you a few better features.
Truthfully though, unlike cars, pretty much all trucks out there are pretty solid. You can feel confident going purely off of price vs features.

I had a Titan, and I would recommend against it. F150 would be a good truck for a full size. Or I would recommend the Toyota Tacoma or Nissan Frontier for mid-size with the Toyota ahead.
