In Maple Ridge anything less than a F-350 with double rear wheels marks you out as a wuss.

I can just see you and your special friend relaxing after a hard day of uphill gardening... trucks, hats and wistful gazing. You're becoming Albertan.

Maybe go into a few dealerships and take a look. Full size is like a Tundra or Chevy Silverado. Compact Toyota Tacoma, Colorado, Frontier (These are not she sized).

Get the extended cab - unless you have very short legs the regular cab can be very limited in space and the seat will not push back far, if at all.

Whatever you end up getting, don't honk at old people with it, or this may happen.
