beater mini trucks, whats best?

90s Nissan D21 or Hardbody (Same truck different names) Cant kill them things especially with a 5 spd
V6 would be best and get nearly the same milage as the 4 bangers. Last year of V6 5 spds was 95
My dad had an awesome one he had bought new 95 ext cab V6 5 spd only options bein heat and air and got rid of it as we got bigger. Still miss that truck...
