The stars have aligned and, if you’re in the market for a full-size truck, a number of fresh choices have recently been revealed.

Below the full-size segment, the midsize class sees the Ford Ranger reenter the scene. But if you’re a little rusty on the basic details, keep reading to learn about changes, specs, and IntelliChoice five-year retained value figures on new trucks.

Chevrolet Colorado

Base Price $21,495-$43,495

Body Type Pickup

Minor The base model won’t see many changes, but an even more hardcore off-road model could slot above the ZR2 in the lineup. Reportedly called the ZR2 Bison, this rock-stomping performance variant will likely build on the capabilities of the standard Colorado ZR2 with its own suspension tuning and better approach and departure angles. The current Colorado was named our Truck of the Year for 2015 and 2016.

Also Consider GMC Canyon, Toyota Tacoma, Ford Ranger

Sum Up Well rounded and does everything you ask of a truck and then some

Chevrolet Colorado Base Engine 2.5L/200-hp/191-lb-ft I-4 Opt Engine 3.6L/308-hp/275-lb-ft V-6; 2.8L/186-hp/369-lb-ft t-diesel I-4 Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/4WD, 6M/8A/6A Towing 3,500-7,700 lb EPA Econ City/Hwy 16-22/18-30 mpg 0-60 mph 7.1-9.7 sec Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 4 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 58%

Chevrolet Silverado

Base Price $29,795-$54,495

Body Type Pickup

Major The redesigned Silverado has a more brash exterior, and Chevy claims it weighs as much as 450 pounds less than the truck it replaces. Two engines join the lineup: a turbo-four and a turbodiesel I-6. The latter should be the most efficient option. Like its predecessor, the 2019 Silverado will be available in everything from a work truck to a luxury-oriented High Country model and an off-road variant called the Trail Boss.

Also Consider Ford F-150, GMC Sierra 1500, Ram 1500

Sum Up Lighter and more attention-grabbing than its predecessors

Chevrolet Silverado Base Engine 4.3L/285-hp/305-lb-ft V-6 Opt Engine 2.7L/310-hp/348-lb-ft turbo I-4; 5.3L/355-hp/383-lb-ft V-8; 6.2L/420-hp/460-lb-ft V-8; 3.0L/255-hp/430-lb-ft t-diesel I-6* Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/AWD/4WD, 6A/8A/10A Towing 8,000-12,200 lb* EPA Econ City/Hwy 15-22/20-29 mpg* 0-60 mph 6.0-8.5 sec* Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 5 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 58% *Estimated

Chevrolet Silverado HD

Base Price $38,995-$60,695

Body Type Pickup

Unchanged Not much is expected to change for the Silverado HD except for new exterior colors and additional standard features on lower trims. A redesigned truck should arrive soon and, like the Silverado 1500, could be significantly lighter than the truck it replaces. Expect a range of gas and diesel engine options to return, possibly with major updates to improve fuel efficiency and add power.

Also Consider Ram 2500, Ford Super Duty, GMC Sierra HD

Sum Up Heavy-duty capability with an imposing design

Chevrolet Silverado HD Base Engine 6.0L/360-hp/380-lb-ft V-8 Opt Engine 6.6L/445-hp/910-lb-ft t-diesel V-8 Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/AWD/4WD, 6A Towing 12,400-23,200 lb EPA Econ City/Hwy Not Rated 0-60 mph 6.5-8.3 sec* Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 4 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 59% *Estimated

Ford F-150

Base Price $29,500-$63,000*

Body Type Pickup

Minor Last year the F-150 received a midcycle refresh, which added a new transmission and several engine options. The new diesel version displaces the Ram 1500 EcoDiesel as the most fuel-efficient full-size pickup on the market. For 2019, the capable F-150 Raptor gets Recaro seats and even better off-road performance thanks to improved shocks, upgraded dampers, and a crawl control system. Learn about changes to the 2019 F-150 Limited here. A hybrid arrives in 2020.

Also Consider Chevrolet Silverado, Nissan Titan, Ram 1500

Sum Up The best-selling truck in the country is now the most fuel efficient

Ford F-150 Base Engine 3.3L/290-hp/265-lb-ft V-6 Opt Engine 2.7L/325-hp/400-lb-ft twin-turbo V-6; 5.0L/395-hp/400-lb-ft V-8; 3.0L/250-hp/440-lb-ft t-diesel V-6; 3.5L/375-450-hp/470-510-lb-ft twin-turbo V-6 Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/4WD, 6A/10A Towing 5,000-12,000 lb EPA Econ City/Hwy 15-22/18-30 mpg 0-60 mph 5.2-7.8 sec Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 5 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 57%

Ford Ranger

Base Price $25,395-$39,480

Body Type Pickup

All-New After seven years away, the Ford Ranger midsize pickup returns to the U.S. with a slight design tweak to the foreign-market version. The truck will be available in SuperCab and SuperCrew versions; no word whether a diesel engine will be available. Our sources tell us not to expect the globally engineered Ranger Raptor to come to the U.S. before 2021 when the Ranger is redesigned.

Also Consider Chevrolet Colorado, Honda Ridgeline, Toyota Tacoma

Sum Up Ford’s midsize pickup returns to the U.S.

Ford Ranger Base Engine 2.3L/280-hp/310-lb-ft twin-turbo I-4* Opt Engine None Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/4WD, 10A Towing 3,500-7,500 lb* EPA Econ City/Hwy 21/29 mpg* 0-60 mph 7.5 sec* Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles *Estimated

Ford Super Duty

Base Price $35,000-$88,000*

Body Type Pickup

Unchanged The 2017 Motor Trend Truck of the Year will get a midcycle refresh next year, which should include revisions to the front and rear ends and a switch to Ford’s 10-speed automatic. There’s also a rumor of a new 7.0-liter V-8. That updated truck will most likely be sold as a 2020 model, though, with the 2019 F-250, F-350, and F-450 carrying over essentially unchanged from last year.

Also Consider Chevrolet Silverado HD, GMC Sierra HD, Ram HD

Sum Up Still the best heavy-duty pickup on the market

Ford Super Duty Base Engine 6.2L/385-hp/430-lb-ft V-8 Opt Engine 6.7L/450-hp/935-lb-ft t-diesel V-8 Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/4WD, 6A Towing 12,300-32,000 lb EPA Econ City/Hwy Not Rated 0-60 mph 6.5-8.0 sec* Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 5 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 56% *Estimated

GMC Canyon

Base Price $22,395-$44,795

Body Type Pickup

Unchanged GMC’s midsize truck is a more affordable and efficient alternative to a full-size pickup. It gains an updated infotainment system, an upgraded rearview camera, optional rear parking sensors, expanded availability of wireless charging and heated steering wheel features, and a new 17-inch wheel design. Like its Chevrolet Colorado twin, it can be configured with a crew cab and a short or long bed.

Also Consider Toyota Tacoma, Chevrolet Colorado, Ford Ranger

Sum Up Rugged or luxurious, the Canyon offers lots of choices

GMC Canyon Base Engine 2.5L/200-hp/191-lb-ft I-4 Opt Engine 3.6L/308-hp/275-lb-ft V-6; 2.8L/186-hp/369-lb-ft t-diesel I-4 Drivetrain Front-engine, RWD/4WD, 6M/8A/6A Towing 3,500-7,700 lb EPA Econ City/Hwy 17-22/24-30 mpg 0-60 mph 6.8-9.3 sec Basic Warranty 3 years/36,000 miles Safety NHTSA: 4 Stars IntelliChoice 5-Yr Retained Value 55%
