We all have our own reasons for wanting to drive a truck, but in general what are women looking for? Well for starters, we want something tough, roomy, reliable, and safe to drive.
Oh yeah, and it has to fit the kids, look great, have awesome features, and be reasonably priced. Lets face it, with the busy schedule of today’s women, we want a truck that caters to us.
Though women are not usually a fan of huge trucks, we are a fan of comfort and ease. So, with the mommies in mind, all of the trucks on this list are 4 doors and seat 4 or more. But if you would prefer something smaller or less expensive, most of these trucks come in a 2-door model as well.
The first truck on the list was the 2011 Toyota Tacoma Double Cab. This truck has been named the best-selling compact pickup truck for 5 years in a row by MotorIntelligence.com. It gets great gas mileage at 19/25mpg, so its perfect for women that do a lot of driving. This truck has awesome safety features that come standard, including the Star Safety System, side-curtain airbags, and ABS brakes. The 2011 Tacoma seats five comfortably, and has the LATCH system for child-seats, so it’s mom-friendly. Starting at $21,865, this truck has many different engine options and packages available.

For the girls that want something a little beefier, we have the 2011 Dodge Ram Crew Cab 1500 Sport. This truck is big and tough, yet sporty and fun, and it comes in colors like Inferno Red Crystal Pearl and Mango Tango Pearl, so you know it was designed with a woman in mind. This truck is the ultimate in power, coming in a 390 horsepower. It comes standard with 20 inch Chrome Wheels, 4-wheel disc brakes, and a great sound system with Sirius Satellite Radio.
