3 Affordable Work Truck Models to Buy Used
There are many reasons to choose a truck for your work needs, but here’s a look at three common reasons we hear from customers shopping for a used truck and which we typically recommend:
The Hauler: We often recommend the Chevrolet Silverado 3500 HD, which has the best maximum payload capacity and serious work in the bed, ideal for heavy materials, equipment, and jobsite hauling.
The Tower: Although the Silverado 3500 HD is also the most capable when it comes to towing, the Silverado 2500 HD often is the perfect balance for a wide range of towing needs without going all the way to the most extreme setup, bringing a heavy-duty package at an affordable price.
The Commuter: The Chevrolet Silverado 1500 has many affordable trim levels, great capability, and incredible versatility to be the ideal for commuters that need a truck to get work done. However, if light-duty towing or hauling isn’t needed and a more fuel-efficient option is desired, that’s where the Colorado fits in.
Used Work Trucks FAQs
-
What should I look for when shopping for a used truck?
When shopping for a used truck, make sure it's suitable for the type of hauling and towing you plan to do, while also offering enough interior space for your crew. It's also important to inspect the condition of major components, such as the engine and transmission, as well as the frame, to ensure it's free of significant rust or structural damage. -
How many kilometres are too many for a used truck?
The short answer is that it depends on the truck, as some engines last longer than others. Maintenance also plays a major role in whether a high-mileage truck is still a good option. Ideally, a good used truck will have the lowest mileage within your budget, along with complete service records or a thorough inspection. -
Do I need a diesel truck for work or is a gasoline truck good enough for towing?
A diesel truck is a really good option for heavy-duty towing and fuel efficiency, but a gasoline truck can handle a significant amount of towing as well. Check the trailer weight and type that you are looking to pull, and check if the gasoline engine of your desired truck can handle it. -
Which truck has room for 6 people?
There are many types of trucks with room for six passengers, including many light- and heavy-duty Chevrolet Crew Cab trucks.
