You'd be quite comfortable with a tent, sleeping bag, and pad - which I've carried on my back or on a bicycle, and in motorcycle saddlebags across most of the US & Canada.

Compact, yes. However, while I've never driven a Ranger, if it's like theToyota, Dataun, Mitsubishi equivalents, it is NOT comfortable to sit in for long periods.
About the only reason I could see for using a truck is if you're planning to spend part of your time on roads where high clearance is needed. Which really isn't what I think of as "road trip".
