Midsize trucks offer the best of both worlds: capability and comfort. These new midsize trucks have the latest technology to keep drivers safe and everything needed for towing and trucking. The pickup truck trend is only gaining speed, so don’t wait around if you find a good option. Your best bet at getting a vehicle at MSRP these days is ordering directly from the automaker.

The Honda Ridgeline is an excellent new midsize truck to look for

When Edmunds rated the best new midsize pickup trucks, the 2022 Honda Ridgeline had the most to offer. The Ridgeline is more comfortable than other trucks, thanks to its traditional body-on-frame construction. It also has plenty of storage and safety features to keep owners happy. Adaptive cruise control, forward collision mitigation, and lane keeping assist are standard, while blind-spot monitoring is optional.

MSRP range: $38,140 – $45,570

Jeep’s Gladiator is a new midsize truck that owners and experts love

The 2022 Jeep Gladiator is a practical pickup that can also go off-road. Off-roading and adventuring are what the Jeep Gladiator is into, but you don’t have to do that. It also makes for an excellent grocery getter and family truck. The Gladiator has quite a roomy back seat and room for cargo in the back. Experts say it is effortless to like, especially if you have big plans off-road with your new midsize truck. Forward collision warning, blind-spot warning, and automatic emergency braking are only optional on the 2022 Jeep Gladiator.

MSRP range: $37,170 – $54,080

The Toyota Tacoma is a reliable and durable option

When it comes down to it, Edmunds thinks the 2022 Toyota Tacoma has been one of the best-selling trucks for almost two decades for a reason. It offers durability, capability, and a strong base V6 engine to get the job done. Toyota made the composite truck bed with movable tie-down cleats and a power outlet to add even more for buyers. While some truck drivers don’t care about reliability, the Tacoma offers both in a qualified and modern package.

MSRP range: $27,980 – $49,290

You can skip the Ford Ranger midsize truck

While most people love the 2022 Ford Ranger, it fell to the last spot on Edmunds’ list of new midsize trucks. Its score fell below average, but Edmunds does say it “seems like a competitive truck based on its specs and features list.” However, the Ranger is pretty old, and Ford only makes minor changes each year. While the Ford Ranger is still an acceptable option, there are similarly priced rivals that offer more.

MSRP range: $28,165 – $39,730

These days, compact trucks are almost just as capable as midsize trucks. As previously mentioned, finding a new midsize truck at MSRP can be challenging. If you have located a truck you want, don’t wait around. Otherwise, try calling your dealership and placing an order. This can help keep your new vehicle at the intended price.
