Wednesday value lineup in Lodi: Ford work truck and Honda SUV picks
Posted on May 13, 2026
If you are shopping practical used vehicles in North Jersey right now, this lineup covers three different lanes without stretching into high payments. On the lot at AW Auto in Lodi today: a 2005 Ford Super Duty F-350 DRW at $9,497 with 40,940 miles, a 2019 Honda CR-V EX AWD at $18,497 with 83,598 miles, and a 2019 Nissan Pathfinder 4WD at $15,897 with 75,365 miles.
These are not three versions of the same vehicle. They solve different problems. That is why this is a useful side-by-side if you are trying to buy based on how you actually drive in Bergen County.
2005 Ford Super Duty F-350 DRW: the heavy-duty value play
The F-350 stands out on mileage alone. A 2005 heavy-duty truck with just 40,940 miles is unusual. If your use case is trailer work, jobsite hauling, or needing a one-ton truck posture for business use, this is the one in this group that is built for that role first.
At $9,497, the number is attractive for buyers who need capability without a huge buy-in. It is still an older truck, so the smart move is to inspect it like a work vehicle, not like a late-model commuter. But for the buyer who needs truck utility first, this is a legitimate value lane.
2019 Honda CR-V EX AWD: the low-drama daily driver
The CR-V is the easiest choice in this set for someone who wants an everyday SUV with all-weather traction. At 83,598 miles and $18,497, it is priced higher than the F-350, but it is a much newer vehicle and designed around daily comfort and practical ownership.
This is the fit for commuters running Lodi to Hackensack, Passaic, or local Bergen County routes who want one vehicle that handles weekday miles and weekend errands without feeling oversized. If your priority is straightforward SUV ownership, the CR-V is the cleanest answer in this lineup.
2019 Nissan Pathfinder 4WD: family space with winter traction
The Pathfinder lands in the middle at $15,897 with 75,365 miles. What it gives you is space and flexibility. For shoppers who need more room than a compact SUV but do not want to jump into a full-size price bracket, this is usually where the Pathfinder makes sense.
The 4WD setup matters for North Jersey weather, and the size works well for buyers carrying family, gear, or regular weekend cargo. If the CR-V feels too compact and a truck feels unnecessary, the Pathfinder is often the practical middle lane.
Which one should you drive first?
Start with the vehicle that matches your real use, not just the lowest price. If you need heavy-duty truck function, start with the F-350. If you want practical SUV ownership and daily ease, start with the CR-V. If you need family space with 4WD confidence, start with the Pathfinder.
All three are in stock at AW Auto, 23 US-46 West in Lodi. If you want to compare them same day, call (551) 345-8100 before you head over so we can have them ready.
