suggestions for a small sized sport pickup truck

Chevy S10. My 2003 model is a retired delivery truck with 312,000 miles on it and runs like a champ. Mine is the 2.2L four cylinder automatic. You can get them with a V6 and or manual transmission. Standard cab or crew cab. Many different variations to choose from. Hope that helps! Jim

Hands down, Toyota makes the most reliable trucks. You could look at the Tacoma TRD. Or maybe a version of another reliable truck, Honda's Ridgeline.

I agree with Ed, Toyota or Honda.
