Thanks again.
There are also plenty of happy GMC , Chevy and Ram truck owners
I like my 2019 Ram 1500 but I would be just as pleased with a Ford F150
or a Chevy Silverado.

Honestly?


1953!


You should probably take me for a ride in it.

Another happy Ford owner here, our third new one. Sorry to hear you had issues with Explorers. We had a 1999 which was problem free but then we traded it after four years. Also had a 92 Ranger with the 4.0L & 5sp. Now have a 2015 F150 with 2.7EB nearing 100k KM. My old mechanic said I should get rid of it by 100k but with the better than expected reliability of the Ford ecoboost engines I believe we shall keep it for some years yet. Of course with our luck when our complete warranty runs out at 100k then I'll start having problems.

I just saw this article on the new Tundras. I would consider breathing now. Holding your breath could result in long term loss of air.

Looks promising, I can wait.


Glad I bought mine now.


Incidentally we love the truck already.

We also got the 38 gallon fuel tank. With 29 miles to go, here is the first gas bill. Using 87 Octane. Wondering about that too!


We get all sorts of looks driving thru town.
