Work trucks are designed to be reliable under a variety of conditions. Rain, snow, ice, mud, and any other imaginable terrain should be no problem for a work truck.
There are several stand-out vehicles in 2019 that are worth a look whether you are leasing or buying. The following are the best work trucks in 2019 and what makes them the best.
Chevrolet Silverado 1500
The Chevrolet Silverado is one of the best work trucks in 2019 for a lot of reasons. The bed has an extra seven inches of width, providing a lot of extra room for cargo. The needs of people on the job are important. The Silverado includes a 110-volt outlet that can handle a number of power tools at a work site.
The Silverado also includes a corner step that is big enough and deep enough for a work boot to get an easy step up. The rear of the cab has an extra three inches of legroom as well as additional compartments for small items and storage of larger items under the seats.
Ford F-150
The Ford F-150 is perhaps the best in its class for towing and hauling. If you need a work truck that will be pulling quite a lot, this is your truck. It has six engines that provide a great deal of power. The price point of the F-150 is also very good compared to other trucks in this class.
No one expects to get particularly good gas mileage from a full-size truck, but when on the job, every gallon counts. The F-150 boasts highway mileage of 18-30 miles per gallon, which is very similar to hybrid trucks of this size.
Chevrolet Colorado
Sometimes a mid-size truck is all that you need for an outstanding work truck. The Chevrolet Colorado has options in diesel as well as gasoline engines. It is one of the more fuel-efficient trucks in the mid-size range as well. The Colorado has really taken off as a popular mid-size truck in recent years for good reason.
It has the best tow rating in its class, which is important for a number of jobs. While it won't have the same space as a full size, it can handle any terrain like a champ. The price point is well below its full-size siblings as well which may be a factor when making your decision. Don't hesitate to give the Colorado some serious consideration.
Toyota Tacoma
Another mid-size worth mentioning is the Toyota Tacoma. The Tacoma has got everything covered pretty well in terms of comfort and utility. What makes it worth considering as a work truck is the utility of the bed.
The sides of the bed are lower making it easier to load, unload, and access items. It includes several tie-down cleats in the bed as well as a power outlet. There is plenty of space in the cab so that your travel from site to site is comfortable. You can't argue with the price of this one either, starting well below most other full-size trucks.
Regardless of which option is best for you and your work needs, there is no doubt that 2019 offers some great options. You have a number of factors to consider when purchasing one or more work trucks.
The truck itself is only one factor of many. Auto insurance, maintenance, fuel efficiency and more are all part of the decision making process.
