Best pickups for fishing shortlisted in Parkers New Car Awards 2021!
PARKERS – the definitive resource for car buying advice in the UK – has partnered Angling Times to bring you the award for the Best Pickup in the prestigious Parkers New Car Awards 2021. The shortlists have been announced today with the Best Pickup brought to you by Angling Times being one of a total of 21 awards.
So, if you’re looking for a proper workhorse that will take all of your gear while getting you down (and back up) the slipperiest riverbanks, these three pickups come highly recommended. These three offer surprisingly different blends of qualities, but the overriding factor is that they’re all excellent and great value for money. They’re tough, capable and won’t let you down.
Ford Ranger
It’s not Britain’s bestselling pickup by accident. The Ranger is car-like to drive, has a whole fleet of options to choose from and performs brilliantly off-road. No wonder it’s the reigning pickup of the year in the Parkers awards.
Ssangyong Musso
The headline here is the Musso’s combination of brilliant towing capacity and payload and its low cash price, which significantly undercuts its rivals. But it’s not just about great value – the Musso is also good to drive and reliable in service.
Toyota Hilux
It’s been around for years, but the Hilux has been significantly updated for 2020, with a host of technical and equipment upgrades that add appeal to this rugged and reliable off-roading pickup. A long warranty and great dealers complete the picture.
About the Parkers New Car Awards 2021
Now in its fourth year, the Parkers New Car Awards 2021 reflect the views of Britain’s car-buying public, with winners decided by a combination of the site’s expert reviewers’ verdicts in thousands of miles of road testing and the purchasing habits of the website’s 2.3+ million users* actively involved in the buying process.
Keith Adams, Parkers.co.uk Editor, said:
“Pickup drivers have never had it so good, with a choice of capable, powerful vehicles that are also great to drive. Whittling our shortlist of three to a single winner is going to be very tough indeed.”
