What are some reliable, used four-cylinder pickup trucks?

The Nissan Frontier, Toyota Tacoma and Ford Ranger are all smaller pickups with available four-cylinder engines that have been well-reviewed by both experts and drivers. The Tacoma and Frontier are still in production as of 2015, while the Ranger was last produced for the 2011 model year.

A used pickup truck with a four-cylinder engine can save buyers money both at the initial purchase and over time, due to the higher fuel efficiency of these trucks compared to full-size trucks. However, most four-cylinder pickup trucks are considered compact trucks and are not suited for heavy-duty cargo hauling and towing tasks.
