Oh geeze. I hate Ford. There was a guy who did body lift recently and the body mount kept spinning when he tired to loosen the bolt. Lol.

Yea, Since they put a v8 in their small truck, that makes their whole line of trucks superior to the Ford Trucks.

Who cares if the fords are built and last better. Psht


In all honesty, Chevy probably makes decent trucks. But when all the chevy owners I know have their trucks in the shop all the time, its hard to believe

I love Chevy's. I love Ford's. I love Dodge's.

One thing you guys are all forgetting is that they ALL have their ups and downs. Having had experience with all of them, I am really liking my Chevy a lot more....and I bleed Ford Blue.

Jimmeh, what about a Toyota?
Personally I have only owned a Ford, but my dad has had every kind of truck from new till death lol and he still has his Toyota at 180,000 miles and his Dodge and Ford gave up around 150,000 and his Chevy died at 170,000.
I love them all, but if I could buy any it would be a Toyota, then Chevy, then Ford, then Dodge. Just my opinion though haha. My Ranger has had quite a few problems for an 04 with only 73,000 on her but I still love it to death.

What year Toyota?

IMO, they stopped making a quality truck in the late 90's. I had an 87 4Runner when I was in high school that had almost 300,000 miles on it, and even though it leaked every fluid known to man (even urine), it ran like a top.

My dads is an 04 Tundra and not one problem and its close to 200,000. My uncle has a 92 Toyota Pickup with 380,000 with same tranny and engine.
I love the new Tundras but you cant tell how long they last cause they havent been out that long lol.

My dad has owned nothing but chevy (and Scion for his work vehicle) for as long as I can remember. He's had minimal problems. Both astro vans kicked *** and just kept chugging. The Trail Blazer was good for what it was and other than the rear end blowing on the way home from the dealership, it had 0 problems. He's now on his 2nd silverado and the first one (2nd to latest gen) had some front end issues that never got corrected and the 2nd one (latest gen) has been great thus far. I just cant stand the interior rattles.

I love my little pseudo ford (mazda).

I grew up a chevy boy, so i know the ins and outs of a full size chevy, but i went against the grain and bought my ranger.

I love them both, but each for different reasons.

ya the 4cyl s10's are garbage. but the V6's arent bad, i have an 88' s15 (looks like an s10) with a 2.8L v6 in it and the odometer reads around 253,000kms, had to replace the oil pump then it blew a conrod bearing replaced that, blew another conrod bearing and said **** it and went to the junkyard and bought another 2.8L and no problems. but it cracked the bell housing so now it just sits and rots in the field until i clean it out and sell it..

oh and i hate chevy's too.. biggest pieces of **** ever.. i will never buy another chevy again!! i've had nothing but problems with mine. my sister had an 85 s10 4cyl 2.5L and it was gutless..
