Would you jump at the opportunity if you had a chance to save money on your next vehicle? Shopping for a used truck for sale is the perfect way to save money, but there's a way to keep more money in your pocket. So, what is it? It's making your next used truck purchase here at Jay Hatfield Chevrolet.

Our team at Jay Hatfield Chevrolet is excited to show you how far your money will go on our used lot. While the smell of a new truck is enticing, it's a steep price to pay for a vehicle that will lose up to 11% of its value before you get home. In other words, your $45,000 truck loses $4,950 in value the moment you drive off the lot. Then, just as it's reaching its prime, your truck is worth only 40% or $18,000 by its fifth year. Is this money you're willing to lose?

Why not let your money work for you? Shopping for a used truck means avoiding this rapid rate of depreciation that occurs for every new vehicle. Because used vehicles are usually a few years old, the first owner takes the most significant loss in value, leaving you to pay closer to what the truck is actually worth. As a result, you get a better-equipped truck in exchange for a few miles on the odometer at a fraction of the price.

Used Midsize Trucks

Midsize trucks are some of the most popular in the truck segment because of their versatility. They offer more capability and cabin volume than a compact truck without sacrificing agility, performance, or handling. So, what makes a midsize truck a midsize truck?

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) classifies vehicles by their gross vehicle weight rating or the maximum weight the truck can support. This number includes the truck's payload capacity or how much weight it can carry at any time, such as passengers or cargo in the bed. Therefore, the EPA defines a midsize truck as a model with a gross vehicle weight rating below 6,000 lbs.

Because of their size, midsize trucks are often called "lifestyle" trucks rather than workhorses like their full-size counterparts. However, this isn't to say that they aren't capable. On the contrary, these midsize marvels are always ready to work. They're renowned for their prowess on the trail and their towing capability, with many models capable of towing several thousand lbs with ease.

Popular Midsize Options:

  • Toyota Tacoma: Affectionately known as the "Taco," the Tacoma is a staple in the Toyota fleet and is renowned for its reliability and rugged capability on the trail.
  • Chevrolet Colorado: Known for its affordable price tag, the Colorado packs a hefty punch as a workhorse that can tow heavy loads without sacrificing ride quality or performance
  • Honda Ridgeline: A unibody truck designed to handle like and deliver the luxuries and conveniences of an SUV.
  • GMC Canyon: The pricier, more upscale version of the Colorado with premium interior finishes.
  • Ford Ranger: A midsize truck that's stylish, powerful, and fun to drive, earning it a coveted place in the Built Ford Tough lineup.
  • Nissan Frontier: An established platform for Nissan that remained unchanged for over a decade, proving Nissan got it right the first time with this capable workhorse.
  • Jeep Gladiator: The newest addition to the midsize segment carries the ruggedness of the Jeep brand and delivers an open-air driving experience that you won't find anywhere else.

Used Full-Size Trucks

Hands down, the full-size truck segment is the most popular in the industry, thanks to models like the Ford F-150, Chevy Silverado, GMC Sierra, and Toyota Tundra. Like their smaller, midsize counterparts, full-size trucks are classified based on their gross vehicle weight rating. In this category, the EPA and Federal Highway Administration define full-size trucks as models that weigh between 6,000 and 8,500 lbs.

Because of their size, full-size trucks are more spacious and far more capable, offering impressive passenger and cargo volumes that make them ideal workhorses that can handle every need. However, this size typically comes at the cost of agility, with full-size trucks being larger and more cumbersome to operate in certain conditions. For example, a full-size F-150 can be difficult to maneuver or park on a narrow city street, while the smaller Ranger won't have this problem. However, that isn't to say it can't be done.

Automakers like Ford and many others outfit their full-size trucks with cutting-edge technology to give these workhorses a significant advantage. These models are often equipped with extensive camera systems that give you a wider and less obstructed view around the truck, parking sensors that alert you to obstacles in your path, and parking tools that can handle the task with minimal input from you. Since these trucks are also destined to pull heavy loads, you can expect to find plenty of towing technology to extend your visibility and make navigating traffic easier.

Popular Full-Size Options:

  • Ford F-150: America's best-selling truck for 40 years and counting, the F-150 checks every box on what you could ever want and need in a truck with its innovative technology to its functional interior.
  • Chevy Silverado / GMC Sierra: The same truck at different price points, the Sierra is the fancier version of the Silverado with premium interior finishes and conveniences that you wouldn't typically find in a truck.
  • Toyota Tundra: Known for its reliability, the Tundra is one of the more efficient full-size options, but that can sometimes come at the cost of innovative technology and capability, depending on the year model.
  • Ram 1500: Uncompromised luxury and innovation, the Ram 1500 blends power and capability with efficiency while making your comfort a priority.

Used Heavy-Duty Trucks

What if you need something more capable than a full-size truck like the Silverado or F-150? Then it's time to shop for a heavy-duty road warrior. According to the EPA and Federal Highway Administration, heavy-duty trucks are models with a gross vehicle weight rating of over 8,501 pounds. Today, these models are often designated as the "2500 club."

While midsize trucks typically run on V6 engines and full-size trucks draw their power from V8s, heavy-duty trucks are usually powered by diesel engines. Diesel powertrains are renowned for longevity, with most capable of logging hundreds of thousands of miles with routine maintenance. They're also exceptional workhorses because they deliver the low-end power and torque needed to haul heavy loads. More importantly, this power isn't mutually exclusive with efficiency, with diesel engines offering some of the best fuel economy ratings.

Popular Heavy-Duty Options:

  • Chevy Silverado 2500: A compromise between the Silverado 3500 and the Silverado, the 2500 HD is praised for its diesel powertrain, customization options, and capability.
  • Ford F-250 Super Duty: Perhaps the most customizable heavy-duty truck in the industry, the F-250 offers everything from a base model to a luxury trim fit for a king or queen.
  • Nissan Titan XD: Although it has few options for customization when it comes to cab and bed size, the Titan XD makes up for it with its beefy engine and ride quality.
  • GMC Sierra 2500 HD: Akin to the Silverado 2500, the Sierra 2500 HD is more lavish than its Chevy sibling and often comes with more technology and luxuries that make any job more enjoyable.
  • Ram 2500 HD: Comfort reigns king on the 2500 HD with its high-quality interior and jaw-dropping capability setting new standards in the segment.
