I remember about 5 years ago I was shopping new stuff and to get a V6, automatic, the basics like ac, pw, pl, and cruise, one of the least expensive thing was a minivan (Grand Caravan) at a little over $18,000. That was maybe understandable as it was a carryover model with a new model available (Pacifica) and minivans were supposedly on the way out. So for a pickup which is still the hottest thing, and a new model at that, to come in for not much more is pretty good. I know it's not a v6 at that price, but it is a hybrid instead and the only thing it lacks IMO is cruise. Otherwise the base truck seems great.
