I have been looking at getting a truck for my daily driver while i fix up the Z and 240sx. My limit is $4000 and i was wondering what your guys opinion is on good reliable trucks with decent power in that price range.

I was also looking into a jeeps too but ive herd that jeeps are not very reliable. so what do you guys think.

Jeeps are solid, but you might run into some electrical issues on the really old ones. Are you thinking about a Cherokee? Old Nissans tend to be rust prone, but $4k will easily get you something fairly recent and decent.
