We love our F-150. The back seat of the supercrew is the size of a
gymnasium. Alternatively, there's room for a dog sled team in the back
seat. Get it with the front bench seat, and it seats 6 very comfortably.
Get it with the ecoboost engine, and you'll be shutting down Mustangs at
the track.

I just need a pickup truck, light duty, six seater.

Already have a car for my 16 year old and a minivan.

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.

Subject: [AFMUG] OT Six Seater Truck
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.
