Are you sure you don’t want to buy 2 vehicles, a $10K car/SUV and a $10K truck?

Or will it need to hold 6 people comfortably and perform truck duty 
simultaneously?

Also, I’m assuming that by “truck” you mean a pickup truck.

My 2013 Ford F-150 super crew v6 ecoboost will fit 6 comfortably. 3 in the 
back, 3 in the front after folding the center console up. Seat belts for all as 
well. I get approx. 20mpg and with the ecoboost I can pull my fully loaded 21ft 
camper as if it weren't there.

  Funny story about those, they were shipped with seats in the back to avoid 
the "chicken tax". Google it.

    I've never owned a truck for myself, but I want to buy one now and need 
some help.

    I really want to buy the new Ford Raptor, lol!

    But my wife mandated that the truck seat six people and cost $10k-$20k.

    So I'll have to wait a couple of years until my oldest son leaves the house 
before I go for the Raptor I guess.

    I have no idea which model/make of trucks are capable of seating all six of 
our family.

    What are some options I would be looking at?

    And what is a 'good' truck in this price range?

    Someone told me the Dodge truck after year 2012 is the best value.

    Never owned a Dodge though, so I'm not sure about that.

    I like Toyota, so the Tundra looks appealing, and I think some versions of 
it seat six with the fold down console in the middle, right?

    But those are expensive.

    I sold all my water toys since Utah Lake is now a mud puddle, so I don't 
really have much need for towing capacity right now.
