    Before I got my tacoma I looked at the F150 ecoboost for a few months really liked the truck and on paper it looks great.

    I have a friend who bought a loaded FX4 about a month before I got my tacoma he is pretty happy with it except for the 14mpg average.

    These fords are not cheap $40K+ 20 years ago I was a ford owner prior to switching over to nissan then toyota when I became financially secure.

    I like fords vision but the quality still seems to be lacking how the hell does dodge and gm/chevy stay in business.

    Without sounding like a toyota fan boy there really is only two choices as far as I can see tacoma and tundra if you need a truck.

    The mileage seems to vary significantly between those keeping their foot in it and those who do not.
