Thinking i would prefer to stay away from a turbo charged 4 cyl. engine.

Then you have limited options for new. Nissan, Honda (insert gay joke here) or Ford. You still get mandatory turbos with Ford but you can get a turbo 6 that's not working nearly as hard as the 4 bangers. If you're not rock crawling any of those will do trail work. I really enjoyed my Ridgeline but they give people the feels.

For used a Tacoma is an option. And for what you're using it for I'd definitely buy low mileage used.

Unless you get a manual. My 2003 Tacoma 4x4 has the 3.4 V6 and the manual and it’s been rock solid for 251,000 miles. I don’t drive jt but once a week but everytime I’m out and about someone asks to buy it, they really want it when they see it’s a manual.
