The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Right Pickup Truck

Nothing can quite compare to the feel of driving a new pickup truck on the open road. You may feel as though you are on top of the world, with your favourite songs playing on the radio. If you want to make the best purchase when looking at new pickup trucks however, then it helps to know what’s on the market and it also helps to know what you’re actually looking for as well.

Always be Ready to Spend More

Trucks are expensive to say the least. They come with a huge range of features and that’s what makes them so great. Some of them come with features that you only find on the most premium cars on the market as well, so this is important for you to take into consideration. When buying your truck, you do need to follow the 15% rule. Your truck payment shouldn’t be more than 15% of your take-home pay. It’s also a good idea for you to have some financing from the bank that has been pre-approved as this will help you to get a baseline for what you can afford. If your truck is for work then it is a good idea for you to talk with your company’s financial advisor so that they can set the budget for the truck based on your own projections.  Don’t forget about DVLA registrations either, as you may be able to personalise the number plate to reflect the company.

Know What You Are Going to Carry?

How you plan on using the truck will help you to know what features you’re looking for. For example, do you need a two-wheel drive or a four-wheel drive? If you are towing a boat or any other heavy goods, then you may need to opt for the four-wheel drive so that you can get some traction on the road. If you don’t plan on hauling anything then a good, mid-size truck may be perfect. The main reason for this is because they are super easy to drive and park.

Light, Medium or Heavy?

Once you know what you are going to tow, how much it weighs and anything else of the sort, you can then begin to decide whether you need a light, medium or heavy-duty truck. Remember that a good light truck will still have incredible towing capabilities and it will also be able to transport very heavy loads as well, so you aren’t compromising by opting for one of the lighter models. Of course, if you aren’t quite sure which one you need to choose then it may help to do your research online so that you can find out the weight of the truck you are going for and how that is going to affect the drivability and the stability.

Other things that you have to take into consideration include the weather that you are going to be driving in, the road conditions in your area and even the reason why you want a truck in the first place. All of this information can have a huge impact on your decision.

All-new Jaguar F-Type Coupe & R



5-liter supercharged V8 engine and will reach 60 mph in 4.0 seconds, and a top speed of 186 mph (electronically limited)2. The F-TYPE S Coupe and F-TYPE Coupe are powered by 3-liter supercharged V6 engines in 380hp and 340hp forms respectively, giving 0-60 mph in 4.8/5.1 seconds and top speeds of 171/161 mph2.

The F-TYPE Coupe visual message is defined by three key ‘heart lines’, that visual message beginning with the formidable grille. It is from the twin ‘shark gill’ openings that sit either side of the grille that the essential first heart line – which mirrors the design of the F-TYPE Convertible – flows and begins to take shape. Running up through the headlamp, and accentuated by the LED ‘J blade’ signature running lamps, the line then arcs up over the front wheel arch before dropping elegantly as it runs through the door, washing out into the muscular rear haunch.

The second heart line begins at the rear edge of the door, swelling outwards and upwards to create a visually strong wheel arch, emphasizing the car’s rear-wheel drive layout, before dropping vertically through the tail lamp ...
