Default Cheap Track Vehicle

So, I'm racking my brain trying to think of a good, cheap vehicle to transport my bike to and from the track. I really don't want to go with a trailer because a trailer requires something big to pull it. My goal is to have one cheap vehicle that gets good gas mileage. Ideally, I'd love to find a decomissioned work van that already has the cage and tool cabnets installed, with room left over to squeeze in a bike. These are actually not that hard to find. They come up on Ebay pretty often, but are not cheap.

So my second thought was an old 4 cylinder Toyota pickup truck. I figure that those trucks run forever, get good gas mileage, and might just be big enough to put a bike in the back. My question is, would a little 4 cylinder pickup be powerful enough to carry a bike, and tools?
