Are you in the market for a new truck this year? Are you wondering what the best trucks are? Maybe you already own a truck and you’re just wondering how your model stacks up next to others. With so many different makes and models available to consumers, it can be hard to narrow the list down to the best of the best, but that’s exactly what we’ve done. Keep in mind, each model has its own pros and cons, which allows you to pick one that matches your own needs, budget, and driving habits.

So, let’s jump right into the list of the best trucks of 2017.

2017 Honda Ridgeline

It’s hard to believe that for $30,000, you can purchase the top rated truck by U.S. News & World Report, but that’s exactly the case with the 2017 Honda Ridgeline. Just as you would expect from Honda, you get a truck that is reliable, made with high-quality materials, is comfortable, and quiet. While it doesn’t have the towing capacity of some of the other top trucks, it still has its own list of impressive features. One of the standout features is the dual-mode tailgate that gives the driver the ability to open it horizontally or vertically.

2017 Chevrolet Colorado

What would a list of top trucks be without a Chevrolet on it? Known for its reasonable price-tag, the Chevrolet Colorado is described as a scaled-down version of Chevrolet Canyon. It’s perfect for those that want to be able to drive a truck, but don’t necessarily need all the power and towing capacity of those super powerful models. You can get this model with a diesel engine and it offers rear and front locking differentials. The cabin itself is roomy and comfortable, making for a great ride.

2017 Ford F-150

Here’s another truck that regularly pops up on the best of lists, and for good reason. The Ford F-150 is known for being a hard-working truck and it gives consumers the choice between four different engines. Spring 2018 will also see the introduction of a powerful diesel engine model that is bound to get people excited. Additional features include adaptive cruise control, 4G LTE Wi-Fi, automated emergency braking, and a touchscreen infotainment system.

2017 GMC Canyon

Rounding out the list of top vehicles is the GMC Canyon, which is the feature-rich and power-rich version of the Chevrolet Colorado. Standout features include a good amount of cargo and passenger room, the option to get an extended crew cab and foot bed, and an optional 2.8 liter turbo-diesel engine.
