Many people are looking for the best trucks to buy. Naturally, a decent number of these drivers want used models. Sadly, there are some vehicles on the market that are either too expensive or that have notable issues that would require several visits to auto mechanics. Luckily, a well-known mechanic recently took to social media to highlight three of the best used trucks for people with a $20,000 budget. 

Auto mechanics know the best trucks to buy that won’t break the bank

Several auto mechanics use social media to spread awareness. Recently, Royalty Auto Service, which is based in Texas, took to TikTok to list three of the best trucks to buy for those who want used options. Precisely, the ones he listed would fit into a 20k budget. Of course, all three models are slightly older but come from trusted automakers. The list goes from the least recommended to the most. 

The 2013 Chevrolet Silverado is one of the best used trucks to buy

As some auto mechanics would, the first used truck this one recommends is the 2013 Chevrolet Silverado. He begins by saying he doesn’t typically suggest the Silverado, but it fits into the budget, and plenty of people like them. Specifically, he says to look for a 4.8-liter engine and not a 5.3-liter. 

Some auto mechanics also like the used Nissan Titan

Many people consider the Nissan Titan one of the best trucks to buy. This may not be true for all auto mechanics, but many models make for solid vehicles. He says the 2012 or 2013 models would fit into a $20k budget. However, this mechanic does admit that Titan trucks have some issues. Still, he says his shop doesn’t see many Titans, and the problems are usually pretty fixable. 

He recommends the Toyota Tundra above all else

Naturally, auto mechanics know that Toyota vehicles can be trusted. Because of this, this one recommends the used Toyota Tundra as one of the best trucks to buy. He says that you “can’t go wrong” with this truck and that they are almost indestructible. Of course, the video also explains that they are more expensive than other used trucks, so a model that costs $20k will have higher mileage than many of its rivals.
