    Good man. Stand by it to the end. I love them for the power and capability that they possess... I just feel like they are outmatched in the creature comforts and overall engineering department. Unfortunately, im not in the market for that kind of truck. If the mileage on them wasn't so damn bad...

    If it's going to be purely towing/utility and new, I would look at the numbers.... Towing, torque, ect. Then go to the lot and drive them. Base your decision on that.

    I think all this brand loyalty is kind of dumb, to be honest, but do what you gotta do.

    Quality and use trump a band name as far as I'm concerned.

    Well im not a "brand loyalists" but just what toyota can offer as far as superchargers, trd, etc. Plus i've been in alot of full sizes work, towing, pleasure and i just like tundra the best. But also i didn't list the tundra/titan because of the foreign debate even though they might have more american parts than these three.

    fun stuff coming soon! New battery, radiator and CV joints and axles. Added some Rancho RS5000 shocks.
    ford deff. they always lasted us for work trucks, they got beat to hell and back and as long as you took care of what was under the hood they did fine. Chevy and dodge didnt fair too well, the older dodges did, we have a 95 3500 cummins, and that thing is a beast...but its the 3500, not 1500. we got a newer dodge 1500 a couple years back, within 3 months we traded it back in cuz it was crap, looked nice but performed poorly
