So here's my situation.. I have a nice (older) Jeep I'm probably going to sell soon. I love it to death but as situations change, so do priorities. I bought a dirt bike a couple years ago and since have only taken my Jeep wheeling once. Now it just sits on the side of the house most of the time, unless I decide to take it to work or hitch the bikes up and take it to the track.
What I would really like is to sell the Jeep and get an older truck of some sort to haul my dirt bike around with, take camping and hunting (4x4 a must), and maybe one day haul a small to medium sized camp trailer. This truck wouldn't have to be anything fancy as I already have a DD. I would want something of around equal value to the Jeep (possibly 4-5k). Something reliable I could take 1k miles without any worries.
I know that's asking a lot for the price range, but what are some suggestions you guys have as far as what to look for? The only truck I really have much experience with was a 92 F250 with a 460 that I had for a couple years. It was a sweet truck that I bought to haul my Jeep with and it did great, but I decided I don't need anything quite that big and would prefer something that would hopefully get decent mileage (15-16mpg too much to ask?).
Let me know what ideas you guys have! I'm open to any suggestions.
